Infertility

I'm back (loss mentioned)

I hope it's okay with you all that I rejoin.  I was the last of the August Shooting Stars, but it looks like I'm back.  The short version is blighted ovum at 6w6d.  I'm measuring over a week behind with only the gestational sac and small yolk sac showing.  Obviously, with IVF there's really no question about just being later than assumed, so it's pretty evident this isn't a viable pregnancy.  I had an u/s Monday and again today, neither showing any growth at all.

I will stop all my meds today and wait to miscarry naturally.  We'll give it a little time (with weekly u/s appointments) before going the D&C route.  My RE says there is no way to know for sure, but they think given the size it won't be necessary.  The plan now is to wait one cycle and then hopefully do a FET before the year is over.  This will be my first FET so I'll probably have lots of questions.

    ***** All Welcome *******

  • @LooneyLife I'm so sorry your facing this. I as well was in the August Shooting Stars and had a D&C done at 6.5 weeks due to a blighted ovum as well. I was measuring behind then no growth at all :(. The process was very tough to regain from but time healed our wounds.. I hope the same for you and you will be able to join the boards in 2013 for your 1st FET. Sending prayers your way for strength.
