Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Intro

I just found out when I went in to get my 10week Doppler that there was no HB and after an ultrasound my doctor has told me didn't even show anything past a possible 6-7 weeks. Followed by 2 Hcg tests where my levels dropped. And that I'm going to miscarry. I'm sad. Scared. This was my first pregnancy and I don't know anyone in my life who has gone through this. The waiting to miscarry is giving me horrible anxiety. I just want this to be over with.

Because it's a sure thing, should I still be following a pregnancy diet? Can I have a glass of wine now with my husband? Coffee? I know these are little things but they're little things I love. Just curious.

Any advice or guidance on dealing with the anxiety of waiting? I'm so glad to have people to talk to but so sad that we are here.

Re: Intro

  • I'm going through the same thing. I should be 11 weeks and baby measured 7 weeks 5 days with no heartbeat. I have yet to start a natural moscarriage. (I'm sure a DNC will be scheduled this week). I've always had pretty bad anxiety so this def. doesn't help. I just keep telling myself it's ok to feel the way I do and as sad as this is I'm am happy that the dr sees no reason I can't have a healthy pregnancy in the future. But, I have the same questions though, I decided since I'm still "pregnant" that I will continue to take my vitamins and no drinking. I think I would feel guilty. But in the end it's whatever you feel comfortable with doing. We also plan on trying as soon as we get the ok so it's best if I continue doing things the way I have been. I'm so sorry for your loss.

  • So sorry for your loss. Waiting is the absolute worst! I didn't think I knew anyone who had dealt with a miscarriage either, but after my first I stumbled upon many woman in my life who had been through it. It started to feel a bit like a terrible secret society :( As for your specific questions, do whatever feels right to you. Take care of yourself!
