Thanks for everyone's support over recent days. You guys are amazing.
As expected its not good news. After the increased bleeding last night the scan today showed a sac of the right size but it was empty and had an irregular shape. Frustratingly the bleeding has stopped and my HCG is still rising (although it was only 37,600 today from 30, 600 on Friday).
Literally exactly the same symptoms as before at exactly the same time. Just don't know why I can't get beyond 6 weeks. Last time I could blame it on my rubbish eggs but this time the donor was 26 with kids of her own and a previous recipient had success.
Feeling totally gutted about this, losing my dad and being so far from home.

So sorry to hear this thoughts with you and your hubby question, are you on anything to prevent clotting? I had miscarriages the same time as you twice and i was put on 75mg aspirin and clexane to stop clotting as my specialist suspected that would help and after that we had success. No idea if that is something that could help you?
Either way be kind to yourself I wish you all the best in this tryingtime it is heartbreaking xxx
No, not taking anything extra. When it happened last time we just thought it was my old eggs. I’m not prepared to use our remaining frosties without some changes being made.
Its gonna be a while anyway as we won’t have chance to get back to Spain until after Xmas.
Oh Mantaray Im so so sorry! Could it just be too early to visualise the sac well? I had been wondering if perhaps you just lost one embryo. Have they given any hope to you? Are you being rescanned in a few days or hCG monitoring? Huge hugs love, you've had a very difficult time of late, especially with the loss of your dad too!
Completely get your frustration regarding moving from your own rubbish eggs to using DE although my situation is a lot different. My donor was also young and someone else had success and I still cant get pregnant.xx
The midwife said to keep my 7 week scan which is booked for Friday but she also kept on saying how sorry she was, so not much hope. Combining heavy bleeding, a dodgy scan and slow rising HCG isn’t exactly positive.
She will talk to the doctor in the morning as it’s nighttime here in NZ now.
Oh no she doesnt sound overly positive does she but I guess you'll know either way on Friday, such a torurous wait. Im really sorry, cant imagine what you're going through. I know you probably wont be able to but try to get some rest.xxx
Oh Mantray75 I’m shocked beyond words you are going through this again. Too cruel. I wish I had better words all I can say is how sorry I am for your loss & that I’m thinking of you. xoxo
So gutted for you Mantaray, devastating news after such hope initially Xx
Mantaray, I'm so so sorry to hear this, there are no words. Thinking of you at this awful time, hopefully they will be able to tell you more on Friday xx
I'm really sorry to read your news. The waiting over the last few daysist have been horrendous. Ive found myself in a similar place several times and, despite having all the drugs (clexane, steroids etc) thrown at me have recently moved on to donor eggs at 43.
Has your partner had a dna fragmentation test on his sperm? We used ICSI for a failed OE and current DE as mine has fairly high %. However on our current DE cycle we were told that the embryos were showing signs of fragmentation on the embryoscope and I'm wondering if its still the sperm that are causing the problem as ours is a proven donor.
So tough being stranded in limbo, but the fact the clinic want to keep you on the meds means there is some hope. I guess you need to let this play out and see how it goes. Stay strong lovely xx
