The wait is killing me

Last Tuesday I had a scan with an empty sac. I go back on Friday June 12th. This has felt like the longest week and half of my life. I google every day and read people's success stories, hoping mine will turn out the same. I dont have symptoms like I did with my daughter. I have none, just like with my first bo. So it's hard to have hope that this one is going to turn out ok.

I am sorry you are going through this. I had almost a week wait between when I had my u/s showing no heartbeat and when I actually had my d&c. To keep myself busy and so I was well informed, I used that week to research all of the options I had to remove my baby and all the tissue. (couldn't think of better wording) anyways, I looked up pros and cons and complications of taking cytotec, natural mc, or d&c. Ultimately for us, d&c was better option because we were beyond 8 weeks (thus more chance of not passing all tissue with mc) and the wait to pass naturally would have killed me. I hope the best for you but you should also be prepared for the worst and educate yourself somewhat on your options so you have good questions to ask your MD while you are there.
