  • TW- 

    Baby Bs heart stopped sometime this past week. Baby A is still doing ok, but has a greater than 50% chance of miscarriage at this point. 

    My SCH grew from 3cm to 9cm this past week and the doctor is pretty sure that is why baby B died. The bleed is far greater in size both twins combined. 

    I hope you all are having wonderful pregnancies, and will only experience smooth sailing from here. 
  • @Cowboycorgi Oh No... I'm so sorry to hear all of this. It makes me want to cry for you.  I wish there was something I could say... I'm sorry

    @cowboycorgi my heart just broke reading your update..im praying so hard for you guys.. i hope the dr is going to try and do something for the SCH.. sending hugs your way!!
  • Thank you, ladies. The thoughts are very much appreciated. It's a strange place to be in grieving a baby while still trying to be positive about the another baby. 

    Sadly, there is nothing the doctor or I can do about the bleed. Studies show that pelvic rest is best, but bedrest can be dangerous and make them worse. I'm on lifting restrictions, and no exercise allowed. Besides that it is wait and see. 
  • @cowboycorgi I'm so sorry to read your update. I'm praying the sch resolves itself and baby A thrives.

  • 8 week ultrasound this morning, both babes measuring over 8 weeks, heartbeats of 166 & 174...it's finally sinking in that I'm having twins! Currently researching OB/Gyns in my area for my first appt in a couple weeks and have another RE appt in a week. 
    Oh and I discovered that my nausea was stemming from my prenatal vitamin (due to the iron). I now take it at night and so far, no more MS. 
  • @Cowboycorgi i am pulling for you and baby A. 
  • 8 week ultrasound today at 8wks 6 days.. both babies measuring right on track.. both being wiggle worms!! Baby A hr of 178 and baby B hr of 182..this was my last RE appt.. i stop meds in one week!! I go next Wednesday for first ob appointment..
  • @momma6angels11 That's awesome that you had a great ultrasound yesterday.

    UPDATE 
    Sorry for tmi
    I woke up this morning feeling like i was peeing myself..got out of bed and went to bathroom to turn light on and blood was running everywhere with clots..so i tried to clean up and put a pad on and headed to ER..
    They gave me iv and checked my cervix which was slightly dilated and pulled out a huge clot as a speciman as they thought it could of been tissue.. checked my hcg level
    Level was over 100,000 so good for my stage..
    I Got admitted to the hospital to monitor my blood loss..both babies were ok this morning on ultrasound.. baby A hr of 178 and 185 for baby B.. But they found bleeding from both placentas attachments.. so far bleeding has about stopped..im praying this was my only scare..Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers..ill keep you all posted..
  • momma6angels11 - Great heart rates! That's so encouraging! I hope you are not in too much pain and get to go home to an uneventful pregnancy soon!
  • @momma6angels11, So relieved that the bleeding has almost stopped. Continued thoughts and prayers so you have an uneventful healthy 9 months. *hugs*
  • @momma6angels11, i third that!!  an uneventful healthy 9 months it is.  I'm so glad you got to see your pnuts and they're doing well, let them get stronger with u everyday.  What did your RE say.  hoping the bleeding has fully stopped!

  • Been having a crazy time at work, so haven't been able to update. I got switched to another team due to a lot of drama and boy am I glad I did cause one of my new colleagues just found out she is preggo too and she's also super friendly! Talk about happy coincidence!!

    I had my mini US last Tuesday, at 8w 2d, hb was at 160. Been throwing up 1-2 times per day and super fatigued, not pleasant. Feeling pretty awful today, headaches on top of everything and everything smells really bad including myself, I've been taking two showers a day sometimes..ugh when will this end?!

    @momma6angels11 sorry to hear about your scare, I've been there! Glad babies are doing well!!
  • @colette18, *waves!* nice to see everything is looking healthy for you, even if it means MS is bugging you. 8 week symptoms can be rough, and it sounds like they all hit you! 

    AFM, great news at US today! Baby is doing well measuring exactly 10w1d HR 168. SCH shrunk from 9cm to 4cm! Still there, but much less threatening and now slightly smaller than half the size of the gestational sac which is a good sign. 
    I was able to find babies heartbeat on my fetal doppler, and my doctor suggested I use on to keep anxiety down. (I have a medical grade doppler and used to train people how to use them) 

    im counting down to the 12 week mark... so I can stop taking PIO, lol! My butt hurts! 


  • @Cowboycorgi hey girl! Great news, glad to hear your sch shrunk! I had one too, but ob didn't seem too worried about it and I only bleed for about 8hours at 6 weeks. Don't know how big it was either..We shall see...

    I don't go in for another full blown US until August 25, when they'll also do nuchal testing. It's a little nerve racking... I hate waiting. Ob told me I could stop progesterone and Estrace this past Monday, (the start of week 9) but I'm secretly doing an extra 2 weeks to be on the safe side.... can't hurt right? 
  • @Cowboycorgi yay!!!  thats fantastic news...shrink SCH shrink!!!!  love seeing this update and hope your pnut just keeps thriving!  I think when the time comes i pray I can get a doppler too...I think I will need it for sure!!

    @colette18, sorry its hitting you so hard, hopefully it will let up for you in the next trimester!  I have to be honest I thought of doing the same thing with my pills when i was at that point too...having my loss i wonder if I should've done the same...I dont think it could hurt BUT what so i kno ;)

    @momma6angels11 so glad to see your update praying thats your only scare you have...let it just be smooth sailing from here on in!!

    AFM:  Yesterday was a tough day - having twins I shouldve delivered sooner but it was my due date and its just sad.
    My E2 in 3 days did rise from 75, 242, 400 so thats looking good for me and 7/8 follies are all on point...one is at 6.5 so we shall see if it perks up.  I feel like after 5/6 days of meds I already have a follicle at 13 so a lil nervous that i haven't even gotten to acupuncture yet so hoping that wont effect anything and I've got normal eggs cooking in there.  I went to acupuncture today and hopefully that will help make this eggs super strong and normal!  I can't believe I still have a killer headache, not sure if its the meds or just lack of sleep.. I already started the cetritide last night so i'm certainly progressing a bit faster this cycle...so praying thats a good thing!!

    Hopeful_mom sometimes you just have to trust your gut instinct and hope for the best!

    i-wanna-b-the-girl-w-most-cake glad you got to see your babes! Exciting stuff! The doc told me to stop Estrace first then a week later to stop progesterone, cold turkey. They wanted me to stop Estrace at week 8and progesterone at 9,  because the placenta takes over at week 9. Soo my own plan is to stop Estrace on Monday, starting week 10, and progesterone the week after that, at wk 11.  

    I really do hope that the placenta takes the edge off my symptoms too, but I'm really worried I'll be one of those women who'll have to deal with these horrible symptoms through to the end...

    I too am going to have to switch pants, I'm at least an inch bigger on my lower abs and my current jeans aren't working anymore! Luckily I saved some of my fat jeans, lol!


  • @colette18 I'm sorry you're feeling so sick. I was absolutely miserable I finally broke down and asked for zofran and I feel so much better. I also found vitamin water helped a lot.
    @cowboycorgi great news!
    @hopefulmom I'm sorry about the rough day hugs <3 great news about your follies. grow follies grow!

    I had a scare this morning. I'm 13 weeks today and I woke up and used the bathroom and saw a bowl full of bright red blood and freaked. thankfully my dr had me come in right away and saw the baby doing just fine but the sch has grown. He didn't give me measurements and doesn't think it's a big deal but of course I'm super worried. He said to come back in 2 weeks to check on the bleed and the baby. In the meantime no sex, no exercise and told to take it easy.

  • brooklyngirl18 - so scary! you are understandably worried but try to trust the docs when they say it's not a big deal. when did you find out about the sch? I don't remember you mentioning that before...they seem to be very common. prob more common than the docs even think bc 'non IF' patients don't have weekly/biweekly scans. maybe in our case since we are monitored so often it's just more apparent.
  • @i-wanna-b-the-girl-w-most-cake I found out last week at the NT scan. I was kind of surprised because I've had 4 scans before that and no one mentioned an sch. I'm not bleeding anymore so hopefully that's a good sign. I'll go back in 2 weeks to check on baby and the sch. The dr said once the baby gets bigger, it will push up against it and help it resolve itself so there's that. He also said that having a decent amount of blood at this point in pregnancy is better than spotting since we have so much extra blood flow, it's expected that a tiny burst vessel would cause more bleeding than spotting. I never heard that before but it makes sense.

  • brooklyngirl18 - glad things are at bay - how scary to wake up to that I'm sure you must've been so scared.  Its so crazy that we do so many scans yet everyone doesn't see everything!  Positive is that you are now in your 2nd trimester, let your lil bean get stronger with u every day!

  • Brooklyngirl18 -- that's so scary. I'm glad the bleeding has stopped and the doctor wasn't concerned.

    Also, I'm surprised/jealous they prescribed zofran for you! I've been MISERABLY nauseous, with some vomitting, but they told me zofran (which worked great when i took it in 2012) is no longer an option. They instead gave me diclegis, which has been worthless.
  • Wow this thread has been busy, so im sorry if i dont answer all of you..
    @cowboycorgi im so glad that your sch has shrunk!! And that baby is doing great.. 
    @Hopeful_mom im sorry that you had a hard time this week and i pray that a healthy pregnancy is coming for you very soon.
    @i-wanna-b-the-girl-w-most-cake im glad you got to see the babies and they are doing great!! I stopped my meds yesterday so it was strange not taking it so far today..
    @brooklyngirl18 im sorry you went through that scare..i know how scary it was for me.. 
    AFM
    I have been exhausted since being released from the hospital i cant eat anything but taco bell and yogurt and smoothies made with avocado, chocolate almond milk and ice.. i went to ob on Wednesday and seen babies moving around and they had good heartrates.. and she said there was only a small amount of bleeding showing on ultrasound..had cervix checked and all good. My blood pressure was really high so they want to put me on meds for it.. anybody else already have this problem? I want to try eating better to see if that helps first.. i go back in 2 weeks and she mentioned that they would let me know if they were going to keep me as a patient or not..as i am a high risk with twins..do you think i should just look for someone who has experience with twins?
    @thucks i havent seen you on here lately,  i hope you are doing well..
    I hope everyone else is doing well too!!
