Worst fears confirmed - missed miscarriage 😓

hoping-for-the-best profile image

I’ve been too scared to share an update on this, but we got our long awaited bfp after our first round with the Greek clinic - own egg and own sperm. It was like a dream come true, I couldn’t believe it. Our first scan two weeks ago showed a heartbeat and growth appropriate for gestational age, but we booked in for a re-scan today. I couldn’t quite believe that things could really have worked for us after so much bad luck and despite all the reassurances of friends and family, I was extremely anxious. Perhaps I knew it instinctively, but today we saw our little bean hadn’t grown at all in two weeks and there was no longer a heartbeat. I am devastated beyond words and terrified of what’s to come. This won’t be easy, and I know it’ll be traumatic and extremely painful. The worst thing is the hospital won’t accept the first scan as it was private so I’ve been left to my own devices and have to go back in a week for re-scan to check on growth rather than being treated now, which is ludicrous. Still feel so numb 😓

Awful news, so sorry for you that you have to go through this. I hope the NHS hospital service can get you in to be seen sharpish so the pain isn’t drawn out unnecessarily. Look after yourself as best you can xx

Thank you. They’ve given me open access so if I start bleeding I may just head down there as I think I will need help with the pain.

My heart goes out to you it really does. Surely doesn’t matter regarding scans what matters is they treat you ASAP. When this happened to me it was the next day I went in for medical management as I couldn’t cope with the trauma of going though it on my own. I would ask for someone in authority sorry you don’t need that added stress.

Thinking of you at this difficult time, like you I have a son first go IVF been to hell and back last 2 years trying for a sibling it is the worst thing ever gone through x

Thank you. Sorry to hear you went through this as well. I’ve started cramping more now so will see how it goes as it may happen naturally now I’ve stopped all my meds anyway. This is horrendous, you’re right about that - a living nightmare x
