Well, farewell for now, 1st Tri. It was fun while it lasted. I can't believe how hard it is to even type this, but I lost my baby. I had a D&C today at 9w3d. I am profoundly sad. I've been having a very difficult time with this, hardly sleeping and crying all the time. DH has been good, and I know he's upset, too, but I know it's not the same for him. He didn't
feel the pregnancy like I did.
Here's my sad timeline of events this week:
- Monday: very light spotting, brown, no cramping
- Tuesday: spotting had gotten a bit worse overnight, more brown spotting with some pink but still no cramping; saw OB in office and sent for transvaginal u/s which showed sac measuring 7w1d and contained "cystic structure" which had no hb, D&C planned for Thursday, no more spotting
- Wednesday: had more spotting in early day, went for pre-op testing, came home and started to have mild cramping and dark red blood, had a few rough cramps during night but both cramping and bleeding became intermittent
- Thursday: had D&C this morning, needed to be sedated once on OR table because I was hysterical; tolerable cramping and light bleeding now
So, my OB says after 2 periods (whenever that might decide to start again, I have no idea) we can try again. I hope to be back here soon, even though you ladies will all have moved on to at least 2nd Tri by then. Good luck to all of you, I hope you have happy and healthy pregnancies!
