Parenting after a Loss

This doesn't end well, does it?

I got a BFP on Christmas Day, our first TTC attempt this time around.  Wow were we surprised!  Betas were 351 (17 DPO) and 646 (19 DPO) - respectable, but not wow.  Ever since then no symptoms to speak of except a little nausea at night when I'm tired. 

We went in for an u/s today at 7 weeks.  They said the sac measured 5 weeks, no heartbeat detected.  They want us to come back in 10 days for a followup u/s.  The nurse said my dates could be wrong.  Uhm, I had sex exactly twice since October (no comment), and it was on my chart as such, with a BFP 11 DPO.  I'm pretty sure my dates are right.  I always sensed something wasn't right, just as I did with our first pg which ended with a m/c.

This doesn't have a happy ending, does it?  I just want to weep, but DD needs me to be present.

  • I'm sorry. I hope that it turns out well for you, but we know it doesn't always end up that way. Still keeping my FX for you, though.  ((hugs))

  • I'm sorry you're going through this. With my 2nd son, they couldn't even find him at 6 weeks, they saw the sac and they think they got a blip of heart beat. They couldn't see him again at 8 weeks with the vaginal u/s and at the last minute of the appt decided to do an abdominal u/s and saw him. But he was always really hard to get any pictures of, we couldn't even see that he was a boy for the longest time. 

    I'm really hoping you've just got a stubborn baby like mine was. ((hugs))
