So during our appointment today we found out that we lost Baby A. The tech was doing the scan and Baby A was still measuring a week behind. She leaves the room and the doctor comes in and tells us that Baby A is no longer viable. Babies B and C are measuring at 11w1d and are doing well. The tech was able to do the NT scan today and she said that things looked good, but of course, I wont hear officially until the end of this week or next week.
We cried a bit, but I think we were kind of expecting this since the doctor last week said we would have to "wait and see" what happens. He didnt sound really positive about it. So I think we just mentally prepared for this result.
It is kind of bittersweet. I know that this is probably the best thing for the other two babies and realistically, there was probably something wrong with Baby A anyway. But it is still sad to experience a loss.
Now, we are just praying that B and C remain strong.
Thanks for listening!
Re: U/S and Scan Update- Good and Bad News
I am so, so sorry for your loss of baby A. I'll be praying that babies B&C are your fighters!
Please remember that it is OK to mourn this loss even though you are still pregnant. Grieve in which ever way comforts you and don't beat yourself up about any emotion you have. Losing a twin/ triplet is such a hard thing as it is bitter sweet since you are still carrying a healthy baby(ies). Just do what feels right.
I'll be thinking about you as you an your husband cope with this loss.

I am sorry for your loss, honey.

Congratulations on the good results for the two babies.
And Im so sorry for the loss of baby A. Allow yourself to feel sad or mourn this loss. Even though you know it is the best for your other babies it is still a loss. Im really sorry you are going through this.
My preg started out as a triplet preg. Although we knew at our first U/S that baby C was a blighted ovum - it was still very sad.
Thoughts and prayers being sent to you and your H.
Daycare is SO exhausting!
