waiting to mc

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss
We found out last Tuesday that we should be expecting an mc. The ultrasound showed that the baby was measuring 5 weeks @ 7 weeks and the heartbeat was only 77. A few days later we started on our new insurance and had it confirmed by bloodwork that our midwife was 99% sure we would be mcing. My HCG levels were 1100 and then 2 days later had only gone up to 1300. We are hoping that this will happen naturally but have made an appt. For 2 weeks to have my HCG levels checked again and then be given a pill (vaginally) to help start the process if it hasn't happend. She said that the babys heart had probably already stopped and wsnt sure why my body hadn't recognized I was having an invalid pregnancy. Has anyone else gone through this? I am seriously tired of waiting for the second it is going to happen. I don't want to feel the morning sickness every morning, and the sore boobs and the fact that since I had only had my DS 12 months ago, somehow my pants are snug already. Even beyond that, this was most likely our last chance. My husband found out he had testicular cancer in July which is why we got pregnant because 2 days after that news he was having a right orchyctomy and is now going through chemo and will most likely be sterile afterwards. Trust me when I say we are looking forward to 2011! I just want it to hurry up and happen.

    I'm so sorry you're going through this.  Similar thing is happening to me.  Found out there was no baby about 2 weeks ago.  Levels went up, but not enough.  Confirmed that I was going to m/c a week later, but my OB won't give me the pill.  I am scheduled for a d&c on Friday.  the waiting really does suck.  It's been over two weeks and I've finally got my energy back.  I stopped feeling sick after a few days.  Bloating has gone down a lot, too.

    I'm so sorry you are going through all of this at once. I didn't start the m/c until this past weekend and my baby stopped growing somewhere between 3 and 4 weeks ago we jsut didn't know it. I guess it can take awhile for your body to realize there is nothing going on in there anymore. If you don't want to wait I would talk to your doctor.

    I would be a wreck in your shoes. The waiting would kill me. I had a natural m/c a long while ago and thankfully now it feels like just a bad memory. I hope the same for you down the road. It is so hard and so damn unfair. I feel for you. Hang in there.
