Trigger warning. UPDATE - I guess I have to say goodbye.

UPDATE: I know Yesterday everything was looking good, but this morning I woke up and it looked like I had my period. And I have cramps, similar to menstrual cramps but more intense. I guess that's it. 
OB/GYN said to do hcg anyway next Mon, but I don't have any Hope at this point. 
Thanks again for your support, and whish you a serene pregnancy and short and sweet labor. 


Yesterday morning I noticed some red spotting. I contacted immediately my OB/GYN, and she said to book an appointment and wait to see what happened during the day. She prescribed some progesterone capsules and I booked an appointment for today. Yesterday afternoon spotting got heavier and bright red and I decided to head to ER. It was quite a sad trip, as I had to go alone as husband had to sit with DD. They found the embryo two weeks behind what I thought, 5 instead of 7, and I don't know why. I have my dates pretty straight. Faint heartbeat, but they say it's normal at 5 weeks. They say It could be implantation spotting, but I can only wait and see. I got a progesterone shot and a prescription for the same capsules my OB/GYN said.
I contacted her and she suggested to test hcg this morning to bring her the result at the visit this afternoon. 
I am so scared and hopeless. I had nothing similar during my first pregnancy. I feel guilty maybe I worked too much these last days and it's my fault if the baby doesn't grow. Please send good thoughts. I feel like bursting in tears at any moment...

    I'll be praying alongside you today. I'm just waiting for a call back from my doctor as the brown spotting I've had for the past week turned darker, heavier and red this morning. I feel like I'm coming on my period with a dull ache low in my abdomen. I'm just 8 weeks and haven't had a scan yet. It's horribly upsetting so know that I know exactly how you feel. And I'll be thinking positive thoughts with you that all turns out ok xxx

  • Thinking of you both @chirico3 and @mrsp85 today. Hoping for good news for both of you.



  • Thanks for your kind support. Hcg values correspond to a 5 weeks pregnancy. The OB/GYN says the embryo Is there, has a heartbeat and there are no placenta detachments. She says it's too early ti say anything, I have to re-test for hcg in 10 days and see what happens.
    @mrsp85, hugs, and hope it goes well for you.

     

  • I hope both of you get positive news @chirico3 and @mrsp85.
  • @mrsp85 and @chirico3 I know how you are feeling. It is such a stressful and heartbreaking experience. And the uncertainty and waiting are Awful. I've been bleeding on and off since Monday and the baby measured almost 2 weeks behind then too. We did we a heart beat though. And my HCG was good...

    I've had some moments of guilt and blaming myself too. (for going on a mission trip while pregnant. Maybe all the walking and little sleep caused it?) I know that's not real though. Early miscarriages are usually a chromosomal abnormality. Let's try to push those guilty fears out of our heads! 

    T&P for all of our babies to grow and stick. 

    Hugs mommas.

  • As you know, I'm in the same boat. Here's to our little fighters! Positive thoughts and prayers are going your way.

    @chirico3 it's sounding positive for you so far, fingers crossed all works out ok for you. 

    I've been referred to the Early Pregnancy Unit but they can't get me in for a scan until Tuesday. However this morning I have woken up and passed some clots so it's not looking good for me. Pretty devestated as it's my first and we'd been struggling to conceive for over a year. That's life though I suppose. 

    Still sending you positive vibes @chirico3. The fact there is a heartbeat sounds pretty positive xx
  • So sorry to read your update, take care of yourself. Hugs.
