At our first scan yesterday 7w5d, sadly they couldn't find a heartbeat. Everything else was good, measurements etc when they showed me the screen showing 7w1d but unfortunately not meant to be this time around. That was our first cycle of ICSI so we'd have been extra lucky for everything to go smoothly. We just have to wait now like a lot of you ladies and go again when the lockdown is over. Just trying to stay positive whilst we wait for nature to take it's course, then have a further scan in 2 weeks to check everything is back to how it should be. I've had no signs or symptoms to point to a miscarriage, but they called it a delayed miscarriage.
We've not given up hope as we know many of you on here have gone through many cycles before having your successful pregnancy, thanks to everyone for their support so far on our journey and good luck with your own journeys xxx

Hi United. So sad to hear this, and I do hope you've got plenty of support just now, albeit not in the flesh I fear. It's times like this when we need a close member of the family or friend as well as our partner's for support. Once you've stopped all medication, usually within a few days you will bleed. Hope it's straightforward for you. Take care and I shall be thinking of you. Diane
I'm sorry to hear this - I really feel for you as I'm in a similar situation. We went for the scan at 7 weeks, told empty sac. They asked me to wait for 2 weeks before prescribing medication to help. I had to go back for a 2nd scan yesterday which showed the embryo and fetal pole dating at 6.5 weeks (I should be 9) and no heartbeat. One final scan next week and hopefully they'll prescribe me the medication as I just need closure.
I know it's difficult, but allow yourself to feel whatever emotions you feel - cry, grieve and then try to look forward to the future and be optimistic that you did fall pregnant, so it's likely to happen again.
Sending you lots of love through this difficult time xx
