So I’ve not posted on here since our BFP just before Christmas.
We have been so happy. 6 week scan was perfect with a healthy little heart beat.
We have been planning the nursery colours and buying odd little bits. Had to purchase my first pair of maternity jeans at the weekend as my bump is growing too tight for my jeans.
Only to start bleeding Sunday afternoon. 10weeks4days. After a tiring sleepless night in the assessment unit I eventually went for a scan this morning to sadly find our little baby had no heart beat! All appeared well with its size but sadly didn’t make it for whatever reason.
So I’m currently sat at home with major cramps which I can only imagine are contractions which come and go with heavy bleeding.
I hope this pain stops soon, we both feel so numb, lost and confused.
This was our one chance with IVF on the NHS so now we have to consider a large expense and trying again. I can’t even think about it right now but I know we are going to have to make the decision at some point 😞
I feel so empty 😢

As someone who went thru the arduous ivf journey and suffered a miscarriage in the 6th week, I understand how it would have been. Stay positive and hope for the best. My thoughts are with you.
I’m so sorry to hear about your sad loss. Miscarriage is always devastating. But somehow it can seem even more heartbreaking after it took so much to get there and after things had been going well and you’d seen that beautiful heartbeat. I can relate as we experienced similar. Saw a heartbeat at 7 weeks - absolutely over the moon - then when we went for a private scan at 9 weeks they could no longer find a heartbeat. Sending you big hugs and strength to get through this difficult time. Try not to worry too much about next steps right now just try to be kind to yourself and look after each other. You will get through this xx
I’m so sorry to read this we conceived naturally and had a miscarriage at 11+5 I really understand the empty feeling. Keep on top of the pain killers codine and paracetamol alternate ever 2 hours took the edge off for me if it helps and lots of hot water bottles. It’s so hard and nothing will help right now, just look after each other and whatever you need to do to get through it just do and don’t feel guilty you don’t have to explain anything to anyone. Love to you both xxx
I am so sorry to read this. Miscarriage is awful, especially when you have had such a promising start. Look after yourselves and take time to heal. You will get there and we are all here for you xx
I am so very sorry to hear this, I can only say I understand having been through this myself, and am thinking of you. Take care of each other, and give yourselves some time to heal xx
Heartbreaking news, im very sorry for your loss. But the main focus is you at the moment, try and not to worry what you need to plan next. Have lots of rest and keep your fluids up and have pain relief regularly. I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks no heart beat and it felt like it was the end of our happiness so just cant imagine what you are going through. Lots of hugs xxxx
This is so heartbreaking , I'm so sorry for your loss XX
Sorry to hear that. That's so bloody unfair when you look forward to something only to have it result in nothing.
So sorry to hear dat but time heals all wounds just take some time out for yourself and your husband. I wishingyou all the best when you all try again. Sending you lots of pray and warm hugs.
I'm so sorry to read this. I know the emptiness you describe. Everything will feel like too much for now. Thinking only one step at a time. You can overcome this heartache. X
Hi Babyblues1, really sorry to hear about you loss 😢 I know exactly how you feel as I went through it in November. Nothing I can say right now will help but just know you not on your own and eventually it will hurt a little less. Sending big hugs x
