Sorry but I'm going to moan.
Last monday I had a scan that showed my 9 week pregnancy was not viable. I had another scan on Wednesday privately that confirmed this, and again on Thursday I was scanned as I changed hospitals, and it was still not looking good. (I put a post on the pregnancy board about all this last week). I'm just horrified that this is happening, and so sad about the baby :(
What I'm finding just awful at the moment is that I have to wait a week for another scan to show no growth before I can get any medical help with the mc. I realise they have to be sure, but it just seems so cruel (my baby should have measured 24mm last week and measured between 2.7 and 4mm depending who was measuring, so I'd have to have conceived the day before I tested positive, and still have a below average size baby for this to fit with my dates). I know there is no hope. I started bleeding and cramping on and off just when wiping on thursday last week, and this carried on over the weekend. It is a bit more today, but only like a very, very light period, nothing more.
I just feel like I can't do anything or go anywhere, as I'm terrified I could suddenly be in agony and bleeding heavily at any moment. I would love to be able to go out shopping or something just to take my mind off it, and my parents want me to go out with them tomorrow, but I'm feeling so intimidated about not knowing when the actual mc will occur. DH works away, and has been going out loads in the evening so he doesnt have to think about it, and it's really annoying me that he can get away from thinking about it, and I can't.
If it was all over and finalised, I just feel I could try to move on, but it's like a big horrible stumbling block lying somewhere in front of me. Sorry to moan, but just hoping some of you will get what I mean and not just think I'm being a whingy cow!
