šŸ’”Holding to a little hopeā€¦ potential miscarriagešŸ„ŗ

Yesterday was a thought oneā€¦.

It was Motherā€™s day and I had mixed feelings but I tried to be positive and grateful for what I have.

I started my IVF journey last year and ended up with 8 beautiful embryosšŸ’•

First FET last June ended up in a chemical pregnancy. I was hart broken, totally devastated and took me a while to recover and kinda overcome this.

Second FET now at the beginning of March followed a positive pregnancy test.

I was over the moon and couldnā€™t believe my prays have been finally heard. I literally did all in my power to do everything at perfection.

Then, unfortunately, yesterday evening I started bleeding and it was quite heavy including some large blood clots. I did freak out and my heart broke into million pieces šŸ˜£ I called 111 but they were not of help at all. Unfortunately, I was alone and didnā€™t feel strong enough to go to a&e by myself. I managed to go by myself this morning, I was referred straight to the EPU and after a very long wait I had a quick consultation with a nurse but as I was not bleeding they turned me away without a scan as I was told they were full with other more serious emergencies for the day!

No words to say I was totally shockedšŸ˜‘ I am now waiting for the time to pass until I can get a scan at my ACU clinic tomorrow morning to find out what happenedā€¦ if I miscarried or was just a big scary hematoma šŸ„ŗ

Honestly I broke down today.. just the weight of it all felt too much and all of this is killing me!

Tomorrow it was supposed to be the best day of my life, seeing my baby and hearing his/her heartbeat and now the idea of finding out an horrible truth is killing mešŸ˜­

I just want to be a mum so badly and it feels so far out of reach, especially with lots of people around me having babies or that fall pregnant so easily without even looking for a baby!

If feels so unfair and my heart feels so broken šŸ’” right now it feels like it'll never workā€¦

I really don't know how to carry on and past thisšŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

Hi, Iā€™m so sorry youā€™re experiencing such a heartbreaking time and with so little support and understanding too. Iā€™m not too good with knowing what to say but couldnā€™t read and just scroll on by. I really pray you get good news tomorrow but must be so hard waiting and not knowing. Much love

I'm so sorry your having to go through this. It's such a scary and stressful experience. I can't believe how cold they were to you at EPU. You would think given what their job is, they would've had more empathy, particularly when you were alone.

Yes, hoping it was a haematoma. They do seem to be a common occurrence. I've read several posts on here from woman who have had them. At least you have your scan tomorrow, though I know the wait is torture. If things haven't gone as planned, please remember to be kind to yourself. You have done nothing wrong and it isn't your fault. I will be keeping everything crossed for you that you get good news tomorrow xx

Just wanted to say I'm so sorry you are going through such an awful time and didn't receive the support that you should have done at the EPU. I really hope you have people around you that you can lean on and am wishing you so much luck for your scan. Sending you lots of love x

Thank you all for the kind words, thoughts and prayers, very appreciated šŸ™šŸ»

My husband and I wanted to keep our IVF journey private so I really do not have much support or chance to talk with someone other then my husband.

It is actually very nice to have this space were people can open up, can relate and understand as they share similar experiences.

I just posted an update and thanks God there is still a little hopešŸ™šŸ» āœØ

I will keep posting with updates!

Thank you all again for your supportšŸ’•

Iā€™m so so sorry itā€™s so scary. I had lots of heavy bleeding with clots around week 5/6 or pregnancy but luckily it was ok in the end (it was a hematoma). I really hope youā€™ve are as lucky as I was. Xx
