Hi everyone, I am wondering if people can help or share some good news stories.
On the 25th of May 2022, I found out I had a MMC; I was devastated and they give me the option of having surgery, tablets, or letting this come naturally. I opted for natural and sure enough, 3 days later it all seemed to pass as bled very heavily and passed a lot of clots and tissue.
We went back to the hospital for a scan 10 days later which showed a small 2cm bit of tissue left; I was given the tablets which I did straight away. Nothing seemed to happen apart from mild cramps and passing of brown discharge; so we went back to the hospital 7 days later for another scan which showed a very tiny amount of tissue or blood clot left. Again I was given the tablets which we did straight away and again nothing has happened. The day after this, I was fed up and decided to take the pregnancy test the hospital had given me - to my surprise it was negative and I was quite relieved this was finished. (or so I thought).
Since this, I have been wondering if I can fall pregnant whilst this remains in my uterus? The stories I read are conflicting and I am not sure if I should speak to the hospital to go back in for another scan in a few weeks?
The hospital did confirm before they give me the second lot of tablets that they won't offer surgery as the piece left is so tiny, however, I would hate for this to cause issues with me falling pregnant in the future as my partner and I are super keen to start trying again and we could love to be pregnant as soon as possible.
Has anyone else experienced this and gone on to have healthy pregnancies?
