Infertility

Loss, chemical pregnancy

Hi ladies -

Just got confirmation that our one and only embryo ended up in a chemical pregnancy. I am numb and heart broken. We had PGD testing for this and I have serious doubts about doing another round of IVF when we did everything possible ( had a 60-70% chance) and this still failed.

This process also doing breast cancer and polyps in my uterus which is all now gone, and I am thankful for...but it has been a lot.

I feel lost, angry and hopefully all at the same time. I know I had to grieve and move on.

If anyone has been through something similar I would love to hear your stories.

Re: Loss, chemical pregnancy

  • @pascorra my heart breaks for you right now and the struggle you are going through. I have never been pregnant, CP or otherwise, so I cannot offer you my experiences, only my support. You are an incredibly strong person to travel this road, have such a difficult outcome, and still be able to identify parts to be thankful for. The anger is natural and understandable. I hope and pray your rainbow comes soon. Hugs.

  • Oh I am so sorry to hear . I was praying for you ! Still am . I felt/am feeling the same way after my loss . My emotions came in waves. First I was sad ... Then I was just angry at everyone . I took my anger out on everyone around me . Luckily people have been understanding but this is such a hard thing to go through . It will get easier though . That's what I keep telling myself . It just has to . It's so hard not knowing the reasons for these things . To make matters worse the doctors are just so casual about it - but unfortunately it is more common than i thought . Take extra care of yourself and allow yourself to feel what you feel without being sorry for it . I have been treating myself to massages , wine and shopping . Not that that fixes things but it's important to take extra care of you right now . Sending you a big hug and lots of love !
