Hi all and sending love to everyone here...
My name is Jessie. I suffered my first loss last December. We heard a beautiful heartbeat at 6 weeks. 2 weeks later it had slowed to 80bpm, and 2 days later it stopped completely. I had a D&E.
After that loss, we battled secondary infertility for ten months. After many doctor visits and medicated cycles, we became pregnant at the end of September. Good betas and a heartbeat at 7 weeks gave us hope. However, yesterday, at 9w1d, we found out our baby's heart had stopped beating.
We decided to try Cytotec this time to try to avoid the D&E cost and hassle. I took a dose yesterday morning, which caused some tolerable cramping and passing of clots, but it tapered off. I took another dose this evening and sit here waiting for things to happen. We opted to try to "collect" at home so they can test the tissue (because it's my second consecutive loss). Any experience/input from other Cytotec users would be appreciated.
T&P to all of you... I hate that we're here.
