Third time wasn't the charm for us. As much as I love all you ladies, I am totally crushed to be coming back. We just got home from our 3rd u/s, and it confirmed what we suspected was going to happen. Growth started lagging behind 2 weeks ago and last week the HR was down to 60. Our LO lost it's heartbeat sometime in the past week. We are heartbroken and don't even know where to turn. Tomorrow is our EDD from our first BFP, so I am crushed to think that I should have been celebrating a 1st birthday party, but instead am facing quite a different reality.
We are in scheduling hell right now as far as the D&E goes. The RE wants a specific chromosomal testing done (Natera?), which can only be done in one specific location, assuming I want to be under sedation. The alternative is having it done in office with local anesthesia and valium (thoughts?). That location with Natera is closed tomorrow and Friday for the holiday, so the earliest I can get in is Monday. Really, 5 whole days away??? I just want this process to be over. I'm exhausted from this waiting game I've played for the past 2 weeks and now have to go through almost another week. In the meantime, I hope that I don't have to endure the pain of passing everything naturally, but if so I was at least sent home with a "cup" to collect any tissue I can.
Looks like I'll be hanging out here for a little while ladies. I promise I'll be in a better mood shortly!
Update: After everyone's input and doing some thinking, I am opting to wait until Monday. What is another few days of waiting in the grand scheme of things?! This whole TTCAL process is just one big waiting game anyone, so I mind as well be knocked out and comfortable during the D&E!
