Intro and Looking for reassurance

jebretz

Hi, my name is Jenna. About a year ago I was a member of the Loss board after losing my triplets at 20 weeks. After the required waiting period we dove into IVF to get a singleton rainbow baby. I had a frozen transfer done Feb 8th and found out Feb 21 found out it worked! One week later I had my first u/s at 5w1d and everything was normal. They had me come back at 6w2d for heartbeat scan, and although it ended up being to early it had progressed and had a yolk sac. Today I went back at 7w2d and there is slow growth and no heartbeat still. They say that it is really small and it is unusual to see heart beats in embryos that small, but we should prepare for a miscarriage. I have to repeat next Thursday, at 8w1d and then go talk to my doctor. Can anyone help me? I am in my own personal hell right now.

I'm sorry you're going through this. I don't have much I can tell you but will be keeping my fx for a good appointment next week.

Biggest hugs to you. I also was in a similar situation with my first pregnancy. The limbo period was hands-down the worst time in my life. It was a living hell. I really hope it turns around for you, but just know we are here for you if you need to talk. Sending you loads of hugs.

Jenna, I remember you from last year.  I posted on one of the other boards and received some crazy snarky responses that were really unpleasant.  You very kindly PM'ed me and sent words of encouragement.  Thank you for that.

I am so sorry to hear that you didn't get great news at your u/s.  Certainly, stranger things have happened and things could be back on track when you go back in for your next u/s.  I really hope and pray that they are.  The thought of losing triplets so far along is heart-breaking.  I don't know if this helps or not, but I have lost four little angels over the years, and never thought this pregnancy would ever happen.  I felt like something was really wrong with my reproductive system, although they couldn't figure out what.  It was hard to persevere at times, but it did finally happen, and we are now due to deliver in 5 weeks.

I hope that your LO is healthy and able to hang in there.  Hopefully my story will give you some hope that it can and does happen eventually, even after going through hell and back.

(hugs)

Thank you. Its frustrating for me to have a clear picture of our fertility problems, and then keep encountering all the other prenatal issues. Its like someone has a checklist of all the things that can go wrong, and we just keep checking off the boxes. I know we will get there some day, in some way, but for now I am feeling lost, stuck and left behind.
