Empty sac

[Itonlytakesone]

Initially found at a private clinic sat and again today epu I have an empty sac no embryo inside. (6+6) Going back in a week to get re scan & my options anyone also going through this if you are maybe we can go through it together

My cramps/dull ache has been there most of the day. I feel awful to say the least.

My nausea isn't as strong today either!

@bluebutterfly8
It's ok we got this, yes it will be a long week for us both but we've got each other 💕

Thank you ♡

I just feel so deflated and sad today - maybe it is my hormones, I don't know.

Every loo visit is anxiety ridden too.

Hello

How are you feeling?

@bluebutterfly8

Hi I'm actually not too bad tonight feeling pretty normal no pains! How are you?

@Itonlytakesone

I'm feeling okay too.. I've got nausea this morning and have stretching pains.

How are you?

@bluebutterfly8

I'm ok keeping going iv been researching a lot and I'm 100% sure that it's a blighted ovum so I'm counting down the days until confirmed Tues then I'll get booked in just want my symptoms to go away want my body back to normal.

The gestation sac will still grow, that will be bigger next week - I hate that my body is 'growing as if it's pregnant' just want it all over now. Hope you're ok

Yeah, I read to that gest sac will still grow despite nothing inside it ahh!!
It's so weird - I feel pregnant - full on nausea today but i know there's nothing inside.

What a shame!

Do you have any aches/pains/cramps in stomach today?

@bluebutterfly8
No but I guess we will still get the off days of growing pains ect because the sac is still having to grow. It's so messed up that hgc levels rise and sac grown and there's nothing inside I feel horrific. I don't see the point of waiting a full week including a bank holiday I might call see if they can see me tomorrow? Then I could get booked in next week it's just painful this

Yh, you could ask and see what they say.

When she booked the app with me on Monday, I suggested friday but she said the earliest she has is next wed - so no point calling back.

Let me know if you do call and manage to get a earlier app. Fingers crossed.

@bluebutterfly8
Yeah it was a big fat no so Tuesday it is then they can treat me when it's confirmed. This is absolute torture 😭

@Itonlytakesone
Atleast you tried!

I know it's well horrible - I'm sat in office feeling sick and tired! Nobody knows. And in actual fact nor do I.

I guess when we have the symptoms and know there's a baby growing - it's not so bad but knowing nothings inside and your feeling like this for nowt errrrr!

Next wednesday feels like decades away!

@bluebutterfly8 agree 💯 with what you just said yep it's totally rubbish 🫤

@bluebutterfly8
Hope you're doing ok, just a bank holiday weekend to get through 🙈

I knoww - times getting closer :-D

I'm ok - no cramps/bleeding.
Boobs haven't been sore for me but I've woken up this morning to them being sooo sore and feel so nauseus - I'm assuming the HCG is increasing! (Decieving much)

My hormones have been all over - I had a bit of a rant to my manager yesterday - how I feel decieved by my own body lool making me think I'm preg but nothings growing.
But then she mentioned something that.made me think.. my 2 girls were measuring 2 weeks behind nearly my whole pregnancy - my first scan with them was at 12 weeks! So, maybe this is it - the fetal pole is growing slower and everythings fine.

But then that's me just trying to cling on to what ever bit of hope I can!

How are you today?

@bluebutterfly8
We've got to have a bit of hope! However iv stopped taking my pregnancy vitamins. I had bad cramps at about 4 weeks so I think that was my body absorbing the embryo leaving the empty sac. The doctor said it not meant to be that painful. So I'm still going with it not being ok. But I'll wait and see. I feel ashamed of my body but then proud of it for recognising something was wrong and sorting it I'm all sorts of confused 😐

Yeah, exactly because maybe the child wasn't developing as it was meant to be. I didn't have cramps at 4 weeks but I did a few days ago - but online it says your symptoms are meant to fade but mine haven't.
At the same time if your sac still grows, your hcg remains high and you'll feel symptoms that way.
So there's no way for us to figure it out. So, yh expect the worst and anything else is a bonus!

@bluebutterfly8
I know iv never been more confused about anything my whole life iv never had anyone I know experience this. Iv had friend's experience Miscarriage yes where you bleed it's over ect but this is on a other level.

3 days to wait

I couldn't agree more.

I've never experienced anything like this nor do I know anyone who has either nor did I even know something like this existed.

Crazy!

You've got 4 days from tommorow, I've still got 5! I was meant to have a midwife app tomorrow and she called earlier to say usually they have the apps after 8 weeks and she's checked my notes and because of the uncertainty and measuring behind - she wants to wait till wed for the scan and then will send a app if needs be.

@bluebutterfly8
I was wondering when id need to cancel my midwife appointment because that's the first week of June seems pointless now. I'd never heard of this blighted ovum silent miscarriage either must be more common than we think but just nobody talks about it? I'll probably keep it to myself to be honest! I feel embarrassed my body isn't working

Same! And what a drag :/ it's like I'm stuck in time now until we know one way or another.
We had a holiday booked for next week which we've had to change to Aug :/

If the pregnancy goes to plan, I'm going to cancel it. But right now that's another stress because to change dates it's cost money and we had no choice. I couldn't start bleeding at the middle of a holiday - and the thought of it gives me enough anxeity to just not go.

I'm assuming no one talks because in general people don't go in to detail re miscarraiges - they'll just say we had a miscarraige and that is it.

@bluebutterfly8

Oh no your holiday, maybe change it again to a year from now then the stress of that will go or if you still want to go then opt for d&c operation hoping to be booked in within the week and by august you will be better for a much needed holiday.

Yh i'll have to do that and will defo need a holiday after this experience!

Not sure about you but although I still have symptoms, I don't actually feel preg anymore :/

@bluebutterfly8 no I don't i just feel like a period is due I feel like iv got this impending doom cloud hanging over me😞

I agree - never felt so crap in my life.
On the brightside 5 days to go and 4 days for you now!
