I know exactly how you feel, I have had 3 miscarriages, 2 were blighten ovums (natural conception) and 1 I had a heartbeat at 7 weeks, 4 days (IVF bubs) and stopped growing after that.
But please dont give up, I am currently 14 weeks pregnant from a natural conception and bubs is growing well.
Sometimes it takes us ladies a little more time and a lot more heartbreak, but when we get to hold our little bubs in our arms, we will appreciate how much they are miracles.
Hun I am so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful angel... give yourself and hubbie too time to greive, get angry, yell at the world, cry whatever you need to. I had an ectopic pregancy in 2006 - lost my right tube and almost my life BUT we went on to have Aiden .... so there is hope and I know that it sux when they that there is 2% of it happening (I was told ectopic's are a 4%) ....
I am feeling confused today. Yesterday went in for curette and was told I had had a miscarriage- an early one. When I went for my scan on Monday they told me it was a blighted ovum and there was no baby. Yesterday was told by my ob. that there was a baby at some stage but they just couldn't see it. I'm not sure what is going on? Feeling frustrated and very confused. Is a miscarriage a name they give to all pregnancies? Anyone had anything similar?
Hi Laluna
I am sorry to hear of your loss.
U/S are not 100% reliable. Especially when looking at something sooo small. During the D & C your Gyn has found that there was a baby and that you didn't have a blighted ovum. Sometimes it takes a little while for our body to realise that the baby has passed away.
I was told that my baby died the week b4 I miscarried. But I know some women who have been told that the baby had died around 2 weeks before they miscarried.
I hope I have helped. Being confused can do your head in, and your going through enough with out having to be confused about what happened.
Take time to heal, you have been through so much. Take every day as it comes.
I had a very bad experience and had alot of complications after my MC. I had basicaly given up on getting preg but I did.
I'm so sorry for your lost babies Laluna. It does feel like you're hitting a wall doesn't it. It could well be that your baby was too tiny to be picked up when you went in for your scan, and so the blighted ovum diagnosis. Feelings of frustration, helplessness and hopelessness are really normal so please don't give yourself a hard time about it. You and your DH should give yourselves time to grieve for your lost baby and for what might have been. My first three pregnancies ended in two miscarriages and one ectopic pregnancy. My fourth and fifth pregnancies ended in my two beautiful daughters. So please don't give up hope. It is so damn hard finding the strength and the courage to try again but when you are ready you'll know.
