I am supposed to be 8w2d today. Last week we saw a fetal pole u/s and was measuring 5w5d. Today got another u/s and fetal pole was gone. Doc said it looked like it had been absorbed. Very sad. We've known for a while that something might be wrong because my progesterone was low, but I was prescribed supplements and we hoped and prayed for the best.
The doc gave me the option of waiting it out, Cytotec, or a D&C. I can't just wait it out and I don't want to have a D&C so we're doing Cytotec this weekend. I'm very scared and worried about pain.
I'm sorry for all of your losses. I hate that we have this bond, but reading your stories is helping me feel not so alone.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray things go well for you this weekend. I used Cytotec last Friday and I was terrified about the pain. I'm not going to lie, the contractions I had were not easy but you should be fine if you take some Tylenol. I didn't take the painkillers because I told myself I would if they got worse or didn't go away. Whether you take them or not, if the pain gets too bad, remind yourself that this is temporary and it will definitely pass.
Sorry for your loss. I just miscarried this past Sunday naturally. It was just a sac (blighted ovum) measuring 6 weeks. The pain sucked, it felt like contractions to me (even though I have never given birth). Mine lasted about 4 hours from when I recognized what the pain was. I took some tylenol and changed up my position often. I wish you well this weekend.
