Intro - living child mentioned

sandc63sandc63 member
in TTC After a Loss
Hi ladies, sad to meet you all this way, but I am glad for the community. I found out Friday that the pregnancy hasn't progressed past about 5.5 weeks when I should be 8.5 now. Tomorrow I find out when my D&C will be scheduled, hopefully. I just want to move on, at least physically. I can't believe my body would be fooled into thinking it is pregnant for so long, but it is what it is. Mother Nature is funny that way I guess. I've been lurking a bit since Friday and I can't believe how long it takes for some peoples hcg levels to go down. Mine are still increasing! Ugh.

A little about me, DH and I have a DD who just turned two last week. This was/is my second pregnancy. We were so excited to give her a sibling. I am really interested to see how long my dr says I have to wait to ttc. I want to get started again soon but want to make sure I am really ready, physically and emotionally.

    Welcome. I'm sorry for your loss. Would you be so kind to place a living child warning in your intro title? Some women here do not have any living children and this could be hurtful to them. Thank you :)

    @rslh10‌ my intro title is "intro-living child mentioned" I am on mobile, but this is what I typed and what shows up on my phone. Do you not see this?

    So sorry for your loss. During my last loss, my hcg continued to increase even after we learned that we were measuring pretty far behind too. It was confusing and frustrating, but I've learned it does happen. Thinking of you! Welcome.

    I'm very sorry for your loss. I had a mmc and I finally miscarried naturally at 12 weeks but the foetus stopped growing at 6+2. I have no experience with a D&C though. My HCG levels were back to 0 two weeks after the miscarriage. I too felt strange thinking my body kept holding on to the pregnancy even though it was clearly over. I hope all goes well for you tomorrow and you can start healing soon!

    Thank you all for sharing your experiences with me and for the link. My d&c is scheduled for this afternoon, and my dr told me I could start ttc after one normal cycle if I felt ready. My hcg is finally going down. I am not looking forward to the d&c but am looking forward to trying to move on. Thanks again ladies, you are all truly amazing!

    Warning: friends pregnancy mentioned

    Thank you for the kind words and thoughts and those who sent me such nice PMs. The d&c went smoothly and I'm just trying to rest. I've been ok emotionally until tonight a friend (who I knew was pregnant) announced officially on fb with 4 totally different announcement photos and it made me break down and cry during dinner. Ugh.
