Baby stopped growing...missed MC

[Ivferrr]

Hard to believe. I had convinced myself fully there would be a heartbeat. I did everything right, the acupuncture, worked less, tried to remain positive inspite of all the anxiety each of us live through. I received affirmations from people I barely knew, the nurses at my doctors office, that things would be more than ok “she is a fighter”. I had packed things to head into work after and then upon ultrasound a smaller sac and no heartbeat, could still see the tiny baby and fetal pole. I asked my doctor like 5 times if she was sure it’s over and “yes, so sorry” there is no known reason and now we are to consider a mock cycle to check timing and do steroids next time? I’m at a loss, literally.

O no. I'm so sorry to hear this. With all the anxiety it just makes it that much harder.....especially as you want to believe it won't happen to us. I also had a mmc recently. Tomorrow would have been my 12 week scan. Just look after yourself. Its helped me to plan my next cycle to try and gain back some control. I've put brief plans in place and now I'm taking a step back and just trying to do stuff I wanna do in the mean time. I've been doing some online art courses which has been a welcome distraction. I hope you've got a lot of support. Xxx

Sending you so much love, I’m just exhausted and sad...I’m sure I will jump back when I can, just very depressed feeling now. They are asking if we want to do a mock cycle to check timing of My ovulation but I don’t know if that’s indicated as I did get pregnant, fuck it’s so confusing. I am grateful we still have 3 frosties

[Ivferrr in reply to Lovemylion]

You are strong and lovely 💜

[Lovemylion in reply to Ivferrr]

I know its such an exhausting feeling. I wonder why they want to do a mock cycle if you got pregnant? It's hard to make sense of what theyre telling you when your going through this. Perhaps just call them back when u feel ready. This journey is so hard. You will get through this though! Xxx

[Ivferrr in reply to Lovemylion]

Well an ERA is what it’s called. Is that the same as a mock cycle? I had this weird anxiety before we implanted that we missed my ovulation time, but I did get pregnant. Apparently baby stopped growing at 6 weeks so I’m unsure. If anyone has thoughts or wisdom on this please don’t hesitate to share

[Lovemylion in reply to Ivferrr]

Hopefully someone might be able to shed some light on this but don't hesitate to contact your clinic for more details in why you might need to do this. Good luck hun xxx

Been through exactly this before and it was terrible. I can feel you, and I’m so sad that you have to go through this. It’s sucks and no one deserves this. Try to get through your grief early so you can move forward for the next steps without wasting much time.

Wishing you all the success for the future cycles dear. Take care of yourself.
