sensitive 7 week scan: pregnancy in unknown location - miscarriage looming

[Poppygarden]

Hi ladies,

I hope you are all holding up ok today.

I don’t think I really have a point to this message but just need to get out how I feel with people who understand

I went in for my 7 week scan today and they can’t find anything. It’s so heart breaking to again see an empty womb. I’m still testing positive and luckily they don’t think it’s an ectopic.

I’ve had a couple of scans today and it looks like I’ve had a miscarriage already but it can’t be proven until I have another blood test on Sunday.

This is such a cruel journey, I’d never heard of a pregnancy in an unknown location before today. Sometimes it feels like every new IVF day gives a new problem. 4 embryos down and still no closer.

love to you all

So sorry you're going through this. It is indeed an incredibly cruel journey and I know exactly what you mean about the process constantly coming up with new problems. Hope you've got lots of support around you until Sunday and beyond. Sending lots of hugs xx

I'm so sorry for your loss 😢 all the best for your recovery and the journey ahead x

Thank you both. I’ve had a call back to say my hcg levels are only 84 which is far too low for 7 weeks. Hopefully it will be confirmed soon so I can stop taking the meds and grieve.

I am so sorry that you are having to go through this. Take your time to grieve, don't let anybody rush you, it is a process you will have to do your own way. I think the support on here is great and always reach out if you are having a bad day. Take care of yourself. Xx

Thank you everyone. I’ve passed what I think was the pregnancy tissue this afternoon and I’ve started a heavy period. So that gives a little closure. Hopefully my hgc levels are lower tomorrow and I’m allowed to start grieving. Love to you all
