Looking forward to my glass of wine tonight (i.e. goodbye)

This will be last post here, as I've lost my pregnancy. I hope you all have healthy pregnancies, and enjoy your September babies! My son was born in September too, and it's a great month/season to have a tiny one!
Here's my story in case it helps anyone in a similar situation:
At 7w1d, I went in to see my midwife after three days of brown spotting. They sent me to radiology for an ultrasound where the embryo measured 5w6d with a maybe heartbeat, irregular yolk sac, and 2 subchorionic pockets of blood (which by themselves aren't necessarily scary). The ultrasound tech told me I was probably just off on my dates. However, I was positive that my ovulation date was correct as I was charting and got a positive HPT at 9dpo, so I knew there was no way I could have turned a positive test on ovulation day. I spotted brown for a week, then it turned to red.
I had another ultrasound a week later at 8w1d. Embryo did not grow still measuring 5w6d, no heartbeat, but the yolk sac got bigger. At that point, they took blood for HCG levels. I was 12,000 that day, and 10,000 3 days later.
Today after bleeding for 15 days, I had cramps for two hours and then passed something larger that I could definitely feel. Three hours later, I've had no cramps since. I'm thinking that's the majority of it. My midwife said I can expect to bleed for about 2-10 days more, and they'll check my HCG levels again then to make sure they're way down.
Anyway, thanks for letting me vent and share my story. I want to try again as soon as I can, and will hopefully be on another BMB again shortly.
Thanks for all the support on this board the past month or so. Good luck to you all!
