Sad news...
Just got back from my second U/S. At this point there is not much hope. I had a U/S last week when i was supposed to be 7 weeks. They told me that the baby was measuring 5w6days and could not see a heartbeat yet. They said it was ok because my ovulation timing was most likely off and I was not 7 weeks and really was only about 6 weeks.
I went in today for another U/S and still no heartbeat and the baby had not grown at all since last week.
I have had nothing but pregnancy symptoms since finding out I was pregnant: sore breasts, nausea and exhaustion. This is such an awful shock to me.
I had blood drawn today and they will take it again on Wednesday to make certain. Then I guess I have to decide whether to have a D and C or let this happen naturally. So far, I have had no bleeding and my doc thinks I may need a D&C because she said some women's bodies don't respond.
This was our very first try. We had sex only once in January. So I feel lucky to know that we are able to conceive. I think I would be more upset if we had been trying for a long time. Not sure if I am just numb right now or just want to move on so we can start again. It has been very frustrating and sad.
If anyone has any D&C info they can pass on I will be grateful.
Thanks for listening.

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I had a D&E, so not the same. I blogged a lot about the physical recovery, which I hope will be a breeze for you.
I'm so sorry - I'll be keeping you in my prayers.
*Hugs*?
I'm sorry. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
After a loss at 13wks and years dealing with IF and failed treatments (3 failed IUI and 1 failed IVF), we have been blessed with DS (surprise BFP) and now his little sister (2nd round of clomid and TI) on her way.

LO #2 - TTC 7 months, surprise spontaneous BFP!
I'm so sorry.
I also had a D&C and I have to say it wasn't all that bad - physically. I found out I was pregnant and when I went in for what should have been my 7 week appointment, baby measured only at 5w5d. So the doctor had me come in two weeks later to confirm, and the baby was at 6w2d. I never once had spotting, cramps, or anything to indicate I was miscarrying. I decided to wait a week to see if anything would happen naturally....but nothing. So I had the D&C. It was not painful and I barely had any bleeding after the procedure. Emotionally it took some time. Here I am again, and I go in Wed. for what I hope be my 7 week appointment. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
