Hi all,
I fell pregnant first cycle for baby #2 last month. I am on progesterone for a couple of short luteal phases, I also had a hysteroscopy in November due to scarring in my cervix from a D&C I had after my dd due to retained placenta (all completely cleared out and looking good) this is where they noticed my lining was thinner at some parts of my cycle where it should have been thicker.
I went for a scan on Thursday all excited only to find it was a blighted ovum, there was nothing inside at all apart from the sack. I was gutted, so was my dh. It was just so gut wrenching and I feel for anyone who's been through this. I was 6 weeks + 1 at the scan.
I have come off the progesterone and going for a follow up on Wednesday.
I haven't started bleeding yet and I want to desperately now as my consultant said as soon as I stop bleeding I can try again. I am trying to focus on that we can try again.
He said to me the most probable reason for this was chromosome (which he said is the better outcome) as I had progesterone so it wouldn't have been my lining, and my uterus looks good and healthy so it most likely wasn't that either.
I am petrified I won't start bleeding and will need medical management that will lead to more scarring for one. I am also scared that it will take us ages to get pregnant again.
I lost my dad a year ago and I am honestly a wreck and really hate that I am having to go through a form of grief again.
How long did it take you a) to bleed if you had this and b) to conceive again?
Lost, scared and looking for some hope ❤️
