Anyone else in possible miscarriage limbo?

[stumblymonkeyagain]

I had a scan last week at 6+1 and there was just an empty gestational sac...no yolk or fetal pole.

The sonographer said we may have our dates wrong (we definitely don't) as it's inkeeping with a 5wk pregnancy.

We're having a re-scan at the EPU on Thursday, having read a lot of other similar stories it seems to be a 50/50 split of people who went on to have a viable pregnancy suddenly appear and those who miscarried.

So we're somewhat stuck in limbo land for the time being...is anyone else in limbo?

I'm on an antenatal thread but don't want to clutter the whole thread up with my stuff to the detriment of all the others on there so thought it was worth another thread...

Hi there, I had an 8 week scan on Tuesday, it measured 6.5 weeks with nothing in the sac. The supporting structures were too small also to suggest a baby is hiding. There's no hope really, I've to have a repeat scan next Tuesday.

I've still got all the pregnancy symptoms, no bleeding or cramping and I'm so angry at my body for doing this. I want it over, I never thought I'd wish to bleed but I do. I have a small bump as I'm fairly slight.

Don't even know how I feel but angry at the head f**k with still feeling pregnant.

I'm sorry for all your losses. I have a healthy dd at home so I do feel lucky.

You are all echoing my feelings.

Pregnant but no baby. So urgh.

Self destruction... Yup have that too. Been thinking about quitting my job all day even though I really quite like it.

I'm sorry Anban, it's all a bit overwhelming isn't it? I think my hormones are also all over the place now it's over which isn't helping. I'm going to try and go back to work tomorrow. Give yourself time. I hope we find enjoyment in the things we did again soon x

I'm 4 weeks 3 days (since first day of last period) and started getting period like pains and bleeding yesterday afternoon.

Cramps are now gone but still bleeding. Doctor said nothing we can do but wait and see x

So sorry Nicolle. It's just so awful ❤️

Fears confirmed

I'm currently in limbo too. I have a scan in a weeks time to confirm MMC. However It's pretty certain in my mind that it's game over. If it is confirmed on wednesday does anybody know how quickly I can have a d&c? The waiting is killer. Also, did you take time off work following the D&c?

@pinkie87 I had my D&C the day after my second (confirmation) scan, but I think I was really lucky that they just happened to have space.

I think the aftermath of a D&C can be a bit unpredictable. It took me a couple of weeks to stop bleeding but I had also developed a hell of a lot clots between the time my baby stopped developing and when the sac stopped growing and then when I had the surgery (So 6wks, 9.4wks and 13wks). I hope that helps.

I found out I was pregnant about 3 weeks ago only because my last period was 4 days late then I spotted for 8 days and had pain in my adomon and back so went hospital that's when they said I was pregnant is it possible that what i just disrcibes was a misscarriage but the hcg level was wrong ?? they tested me and scanned me but no baby or sack showed on the scan but the bloods said my hcg was 28 so a week later I had more blood done but instead of it going up it went down to 27 so 1 point they told me I'm lose the baby yet I haven't been bleeding n I don't have pain yet my boobs are so sore most days and a couple days they go down I got to go back to hospital tomorrow for more tests and another scan tomorrow so yeah I'm in limbo it's heart breaking coz I tried for over 8 years to get pregnant never happened then get with my soul mate n 5 months later I'm pregnant (but didn't no ) im so lost this is my first time as well

Just came across this post and it describes the exact limbo in in 😔. I had a mmc in July (I went for my 12 week scan and was told baby stopped growing at around 8weeks). I didn't want to go back on contraception and I think may way of coping was just to focus on ttc. Anyway I didn't get my period after 6weeks so I took a test and turns out im pregnant.

I went for an early scan to see if they could see how far along I was and turns out I'm currently 5weeks, they could see a sac however there's a lot of bleeding around the sac so they've told me to expect to lose this pregnancy too. I have to go back in two weeks for a viability scan to confirm. I've had no bleeding, but then I didn't with the first miscarriage, I just can't believe it might be happening again. The dr said it's nothing to do with getting pregnant so quickly and again it's just bad luck. I really want to hold on to the hope that it might be ok but I know that it probably won't be and I don't want to set myself up for even bigger heartbreak by convincing myself it will be fine. It's so hard to process my emotions and I don't know how I'm suppose to just carry on with "normal" life for the next two weeks with no idea if I'm pregnant or not.
