Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Waiting for two weeks...

Yesterday my husband and I went for our first ultrasound and there was no heartbeat and the ultrasound tech said it was twins who were only measuring 6 weeks. I should be 9 weeks. We are heartbroken. Now I have to wait two weeks to see if it takes care of itself naturally. I just want to cry today, how long does it take for the emotions to get under control? We told everyone we were pregnant because we were so excited and now I hate the idea of all the sympathetic looks I'm going to get. Also for those who have had natural miscarriages how long did it take?

BFP 12/13/13 ~ EDD 8/24/14 ~ MMC 1/28/14

BFP 5/26/14 ~ EDD 2/4/15

Re: Waiting for two weeks...

  • Getting your emotions under "control" will be easier once your hormone levels drop severely. My hcg went from 30,000 the day I learned of our mmc at 8w3d. Since you had twins your numbers might be much higher. But elevn days later (after I had passed the baby) it was down to 564 and I found that was also about the time I wasn't crying daily. But remember everyone is different~ don't but a timetable on your grief.

    Learned from my first loss that I'll think I'm doing well then out of no where I would become overwhelmed with sadness again.

    As for nmc, I don't know as I took cytotec four days after learning of our mc to help move things along.

  • I don't think there's a timeline that can be quoted - everyone is different.  I found out about my MMC 8 days ago and still haven't passed the baby.  Some days I'm okay and some days I'm an emotional mess.
    Current pregnancy -
    First BFP on 1/4/22.  Due date 9/13/22.

    Four prior losses, no living children - 1 first trimester miscarriage, 1 blighted ovum, 1 chemical, and one extreme premature live birth daughter who died at 15 days old.


  • There really is no timeline. I waited 4 weeks for my body to nmc and it didn't, I had to take misoprostol.

  • Thanks everyone, I'm still waiting.  I am going to call her today and see if we can do something to get it started.
