Late Term and Child Loss

PP appt. and test results

Went to my OB/GYN for my PP visit and to receive the results of the fetal chromosomal tests. Everything came back negative or normal so they're at a loss over what could've caused the baby to die. :S  There was a tiny hint of an infection but they were unable to run a test on it and don't think it is related to the baby's death.

I have an appt. tomorrow with a specialist, an appt next week with a different specialist, and my OB is referring me to another specialist. I hope one of them will be able to offer some insight.  Related they said we can start TTC after two cycles. DH and I are considering to TTCAL and if we are unable to conceive by Jan. 2013 then we will pursue adoption.

So next steps are to lose some of the baby weight in the next 2 months, and to begin acupuncture again to help bring on ovulation and to regulate my cycles.  I feel a little bit better to at least have a plan.

  • I'm sorry that you didn't get much in the way of answers, but happy that you have a plan! I am a natural planner and when I don't have one, I feel out of control.

  • I am so sorry you didn't get any answers. Unfortunately I know how hard that is :(. I am glad you have a plan, having one has helped me a lot. ((hugs))
  • I am sorry that your appointment did not provide more answers to you.  I know that must be hard! It sounds like you are being very proactive with seeing other doctors to help you.  I hope that the appointments help you.  I know I too feel much better having a plan.  Thinking of you.
