Not sure why I'm writing this but I just want to get it down for some reason. Hoping it'll help me process.
Had 12 week scan (although was supposed to be almost 14) last Monday and scan showed an empty sac estimated to be 7 weeks in size. Prior to that I had an idea that things may not be going well as I'd had some cramping, but then again my boobs were very sore, uterus felt super swollen. Another scan scheduled for today, but told to cancel if I started bleeding. Nothing happened this week, so had scan this morning and as I pretty much knew, still no embryo but sac had grown. Given the option of expectant management (wait and see) or medical management (pills). I opted for the pills.
After paperwork galore, was given one pill to take orally, and another 4 to take home with some cocodamol. Did a little run to Tesco to pick up some nice food, giant nappy sized pads and ibuprofen. I started feeling a little bit cranky and weird in supermarket, but maybe that was in my mind! Got home about an hour ago and inserted the pills and have just eaten some chips (energy and comfort!).
Currently feeling a bit numb emotionally (as you can probably tell from my factual reporting!), physically just period type crampy. Going to have a little nap I think.
Anyone else going through it/been through it and want to chat/handhold?
