We went in for our 8 week appointment on Tuesday and had an ultrasound Wednesday. There was a yolk sac but no baby--blighted ovum. Your body knows there's something wrong with the chromosomes so it does not develop the baby but you still have increased hormones, symptoms, etc. That's why it was such a shock. I had a d and c yesterday. This was our first shot on everything--trying to get pregnant, getting pregnant, then losing the pregnancy.
Even though I'm very sad and disappointed, I am hopeful. I do go through times where I think, gosh, why did I tell so many people, why did I get so excited, why did I buy all these books, etc. But now I'll have everything for when we get pregnant again, and I will keep my mouth shut longer.
The good news is we were able to get pregnant. We can try again in 4-6 weeks, so hopefully I'll be joining the February 2014 or March 2014 Moms.
Good luck and best wishes to all you mommies to be!

Everyone Welcome.
I'm so sorry for your loss. There are so many complex emotions around miscarriage. My first pregnancy ended in miscarriage and I had a d&c.
We had told some family and friends early on, and I ended up appreciating the support and understanding, it can definitely be tough to "untell" people though.
T&P for your physical and emotional healing. When you are ready and able to try again, I'd definitely recommend the TTCAL board, it's a very supportive group of women!
