Yesterday we had our 8 week scan. We were anxious going in but tried to remind myself I’d had no symptoms to suggest anything was wrong and it would probably be fine, how wrong I was.
Sonographer had a difficult time doing the scan as she said my uterus was quite tense and not cooperating but eventually gave us the bad news. She could see the yolk sac but no embryo, so development had arrested at some point and we are having a miscarriage. I’ve stopped the progesterone pessaries and we are hoping the bleeding starts naturally, but if not we are back in next Friday for another scan and to discuss options to medically manage things.
Absolutely crushed as we had no embryos in the freezer. I just feel like this will never happen for us

I am so sorry to read this. As Solly says try not to think too much into the future, these early days are so tough. Cry, scream, rant or do whatever you need to and start to grieve, make sure you look after yourself physically. Your time will come. Sending huge hugs xx
I’m so sorry read this I went through exactly the same thing last year and possibly again right now. We are waiting for another scan. Give yourself some time to process and grieve. X
I’m so sorry. I think missed miscarriages are especially cruel as everything appears to continue as normal until you get the horrible news which you can’t prepare for as everything was normal. Sending massive hugs ❤️ x
I’m so so sorry to hear this news, I can’t imagine the pain you are in and i’m so sorry this is happening to you. I’m sending as much good thoughts and love to hopefully support you in some way. The whole process is so unfair. Take care of yourself Xx
I’m so sorry to hear your sad need. I had a very similar situation with my first ever pregnancy. A missed miscarriage at 9.5 weeks which had to be surgically removed. My thoughts are with you. X
Oh my gosh, this is awful news Sarah. My heart goes out to you. Lots of love and hugs. Take time to deal with the emotions of this, don't feel like you need to rush in to any decisions, and be really really kind to yourself. xxxxx
So sorry for your loss. It's so devastating. Be kind to yourself and let yourself feel what you need to over the next days/weeks/months. Sending love xxx
Hi sorry your going through this I’ve had 3 mmc at 12w it’s awful when you’ve finally think you’ve done it and it snatched away and then you have to deal with actual mc. Sending hugs xx
I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s so very hard I know. I have had 6 miscarriages and just wanted to send you a message to say I send you courage and some ❤️
Hi Sarah. Really sorry to hear this, it is devastating. There are no words to make this better but just be kind to yourself, don’t try & rush into feeling ‘ok’ again and try to take some time off work if you can.
You will pick yourself back up again when you’re ready but for now, allow yourself time to grieve.
I’m so sorry to hear this, the same thing happened to me. I opted to have a natural miscarriage at home. If you need to talk to someone you can message me. For now I send you a hug 🤗
