Update

Well I'm having trouble sleeping after yesterday's events so I may as well write this out.

First off, thank you to everyone who posted their love and support yesterday in my time of need.

As some of you know, yesterday I went for my 12 week appointment and the doctor was having trouble finding a HB on Doppler. I was rushed to the nearest hospital/us over 3 hours away living in a very isolated location so that they could confirm. Sadly the u/s revealed that our baby's heart stopped at around 78 weeks. The cruel part being that none of the symptoms had ever stopped, my placenta is still chugging away, and even my uterus is measuring the right size for 12 weeks. The baby was perfectly formed, no defects, implanted in the ideal location, and just...stopped.

I'll be spending my day today making painful phone calls including one to my gyno to find out if he'd like me to stay here, take a prescription, and try to pass naturally. Or if he'll want me to drive the 18 hours back into civilization so he can preform a dnc.

In the spirit of trying to be positive, this experience really showed me and my SO how ready we are to start having a family and how much we wanted this so we've agreed to start trying soon when we're cleared of course. Hopefully I'll be back soon.

Happy and healthy 9 months

Oh, I am so sad to see this. I have been thinking about you since I read your post yesterday, and I had hoped for a better outcome for you. It's such a hard thing to have to go through, and an experience that will completely change your life. I appreciate you trying to see the positive in it, and that was the biggest thing we took away from it, the fact we knew how much we wanted to be parents.

I agree that the Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss board helped me so much in the month following our loss, so do check that out when you feel up to it. It's wonderful to be surrounded by women who understand the sadness mixed with anger mixed with hope that you will have.

As far as the physical side of the loss goes, I do hope you and your doctor come up with a plan that is best for you. I will say that at 12 weeks, I used Misoprostol (Cytotec) to induce my miscarriage, and even though it was a tough experience, I am so glad that is the route I chose. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to PM me.

I'll be thinking of you, and I hope I see you back on one of the pregnancy boards soon. All my best to you, and I hope you find peace in the coming weeks and months. 


Holy heck, we're pregnant again! Please stay here with us little Otter.

We have a heartbeat! 138 beats per minute and measuring right on track. Ultrasound 11/7/12 showed heartbeat in the 160s. Negative MaterniT21 results ... Found out at Anatomy Scan we're Team Blue!

So sorry for your loss, and I hope that all of the painful phone calls are OK. Don't feel you have to make all of them all at once if you're not up to it.

I am so sorry for your loss. My second M/C was extremly similar to to this.  Try and be strong and take care of yourself. I also second the Miscarriage and Pregnancy Loss board. They really helped me.
