I went for an 8 week reassurance scan today following an early mc last cycle. They could not find a yoke in the sac and said the pregnancy had never really developed. I can't believe it. I've been so sick and tired all week and have been feeling really pregnant.
I had my bloods done as they need to rule out an ectopic and I need to get them done again on Monday to check if th HCG is reducing. I think I'll then have to be scanned again next week in the epu but they are hoping nature will take it's course.
I feel devastated. I'm 37, been trying a year for number 2, nothing and then 2 miscarriages. Don't know if I can do this again

Thanks both. I think I'm in shock. I really thought everything was going to be OK and that we'd see a little bean.

So sorry. I had 2 mc before conceiving dc2,just before I turned 38. It will happen for you. I had given up hope of conceiving again and then it happened when we stopped trying. I was so nervous at early scan, convinced this would be another mc and had a very nervous pg but all went well.

It feels more real this morning. Although I'm in limbo now waiting for the bleed. I think we will probably keep trying but I can't think about that at the moment. Thanks all x

After 2 mc last year I felt like I'd had enough and I wanted to get my body back to normal. After several months off ttc we took the plunge and I'm now 34 weeks. Take whatever time you need physically and emotionally its hard. Also the support around you it's invaluable.
