Pregnant after IF

Thoughts and prayers needed

Well we had a tragic 24 hours. We went yesterday to the ER when I started bleeding and passing lots of clots. The ultrasound showed both babies had heartbeats but baby a's sac was looking like it was breaking down and could be a threatened miscarriage. I got fluids and they ran tests and then I was discharged. Today we went for a follow up ultrasound with RMA and it showed that we lost baby a. Baby b was measuring right on track and had a strong heartbeat of 150. While I'm a mess over losing baby a I'm trying to stay positive for baby b to pull through this and survive. I'm struggling. I just can't believe I'm having my 3rd miscarriages. It just feels like all the odds are against us. Thoughts and prayers are needed and appreciated. Anyone else experience this with twins??

So very sorry you are dealing with this! We got pregnant in July 2012 (July Sparklers) with twins after IVF w/ RISCI. We lost one twin and the 2nd one stuck around and is now 13.5 months old (little boy). It was quite devastating and such a mind fuck of emotions being so happy for the baby that was still there while grieving the baby that was lost. I pretty much had a full on melt down around week 22ish, hit me like a ton of bricks, full on curled up in the fetal position crying etc. It's so very hard to process either the grief of the loss or the happiness of the success fully. I wish I had gone to speak with a professional to help me through it.
They had said that the loss of one twin wouldn't affect the 2nd baby as it was in the first tri which it looks like you are in too. Hang in there, I know how hard I is! Sorry you are dealing with this. :-(
