@Ashley I’m so sorry. It’s hard isn’t it because sometimes you have hope sometimes there’s none and it’s the worst thing ever to go through! Thankyou for your response it’s really helpful💖
@Nicole Of course ♥️ We need support through this experience because it can truly be a confusing and emotionally taxing time. All we can do is give ourselves as much grace and self-compassion as possible.
So sorry you’re going through this, I hope it’s good news but if it’s unfortunately not this is my experience. Mine was a MMC at 10w baby 6.5w, it took over a week before I started bleeding lightly. I was so scared at the thought of surgery so I decided to carry on doing natural.. it’s been going on now for 3.5 weeks. I’m exhausted. I had a scan on Wed which showed retained tissue so I decided to take the tablets the next morning. Before I took them my body naturally emptied a lot out! I did the tablets anyway which didn’t do anything and I’ve been for a review with the Dr today who is hopeful I’m all done but won’t know till a scan on Tuesday. See what they say on your scan, if it is a MC and there is still stuff to come out they should give you a choice of which option suits you ❤️ if you want it over with soon as then surgery would be your best option. I really hope I don’t ever experience this again but if it did happen I think I’d do tablets straight away and then surgery. Xx
@Jacelyn bless you it really is an awful thing to have to go through. And before now I had never even considered that this stage could be so drawn out like this. I really just want to know now either way I’m supposed to be 9 weeks but if the baby hasn’t grown since 5 weeks that’s a really long time isn’t it , honestly I know the outcome :( I really hope this doesn’t happen to you again I’m so sorry x
Just an update . My scan didn’t go well. The baby is still showing as 5 weeks no heartbeat. But they’re making me wait another week for another scan because my first scan was private 😭 I’m in limbo but bleeding I’m so scared xx
Really sorry this is how my missed miscarriage happened to me, I was bleeding and baby didn’t grow I ended up with medicine to manage mine it tork nearly 13 weeks to clear the whole miscarriage but I fell pregnant on next cycle after and I’m currently 11+4 weeks pregnant so fingers crossed for you hun xx
@Piper Thankyou for this hope 💖
Nicole, my heart is with you. This happened to me earlier this year in April. I went in at 9/10 weeks and baby stopped growing at 6. It ended up being a missed miscarriage and I decided to let it pass naturally. I know that option comes with its own risks, but it felt like the best healing process for me. I’d stay as hopeful as possible for tomorrow’s scan but remember to do what feels right for you. Always listen to your own feelings/emotions and intuition.
