no longer heartbeat

Hi! Unfortunately I found out today my baby hadn't grown since last week and also no longer has a heartbeat so I'm having a d&c tomorrow morning, I'm feeling absolutely heartbroken, it was really hard being in a room full of pregnant women but I managed thanks to the wonderful support of my fiancee, the only thing that keeps me going is that we will be doing a frozen cycle in 3-4 months it will be another double transfer but it will be my first frozen cycle as I've only had 3 fresh cycles at this stage, I just thought I would send this update xx

Oh Lovely, I'm so so sorry this has ended up so tragically. You've had an awful time lately, I've followed your posts and hoped things would turn out very differently. It must have been a complete rollercoaster for you both. I'm glad you have a great fiancée to support you, indeed I'm sure you will support each other in the hard days and weeks ahead. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow xx

Thank you so much I really appreciate it, it's very heartbreaking but I'm staying strong and positive for my family and for the frozen cycle in 3 months but it's extremely hard, it's been so crazy lately but my baby went to embryo heaven xx

So sorry, not the outcome I had hoped to hear. I’m thinking of you. So heartbreaking

Hope you get on tomorrow and glad you have your frozen cycle to help you keep positive. I found it was a relief to have the d&c as it was over and I didn’t have the waiting to go through.

Make sure you are kind to yourself and perhaps do some not pregnancy friendly things while you can. It sounds like you have great support around you which is fantastic. Xx

Thank you I know I have done heaps of crying today at the hospital, they have given me strong painkillers which are numbing me up a bit at the moment but when it runs out reality will kick back in❤️xxx

I’m so sorry, I know it’s really hard. It’s been a rollercoaster for you lately so take the time you need to heal, physically and emotionally. Your clinic would normally offer counseling if you feel this would help xxx

Just wanted to say I'm very sorry you are having to go through this. I went through it two months ago and it was my last chance with my own eggs. Life is unfair but that's great news that you can have a frozen cycle soon. Wishing you the best of luck and for now just do everything that makes you feel good.

Asha82 in reply to Infragilis

Thank you so much I really appreciate it, I'm so sorry that was your last chance with your own eggs, are you going to try donor eggs? I hope your ok and everything works out for you also, we are planting a fragipani plant in remembrance of our baby xxx

That's nice as remembrance 😊 yes we are going to go for donor eggs. Hopefully something works as this is seeming never ending.

Dear Asha, I am so sorry to read your news, my heart breaks for you, I know how much you were willing this pregnancy on! I hope you will physically recover swiftly from the D&C and that in time your grief will feel less all consuming and the anticipation of your next transfer in a few months' time will illuminate your heart and soul slowly again. Living with loss will rarely get any easier but day to day life will slowly expand around the grief and hopefully will make it more manageable to cope with in the long term. Wishing you all the best for your recovery and so much strength and faith for your next steps when you're ready! Lots of love xx

Thank you so much I really appreciate it, I'm doing a bit better than I was on Saturday and yesterday, we planted a fragipani plant in memory of our baby and that has helped me cope, I really am excited about the next transfer which will be another double transfer, we have 4 frozen embryo's so we will use them all with 2 double embryo transfer if needed, I feel more positive as I know we still have a chance, thank you for your beautiful message and I send lots of love and hugs back xx

I'm so glad to hear you are slowly feeling better and planting a tree is such a beautiful and healing gesture! Wonderful that you have another four chances to be a Mum again, you are doing so well to focus on these positives in such sad times, you can do this, I look forward to hearing how you are getting on in your next transfer! Keep well, lovely xx
