Hey Ladies
I have been in 2 minds about joining this thread, but thought it may be helpful to have a support network of those who have been through it. Thank you to those who invited me. I hope I am not in
Ok so my story. Went to the OBGYN yesterday and she did the normal check but there was no heartbeat. She checked from all sorts of angles. I was 9.3weeks and baba was measuring 9.1weeks so it died two days ago when my morning sickness had too. The nucheal fold was large (she could already see it), so large possibility that there was a chromosomal abnormality. I am in a sense grateful if it was that, that we weren't faced with a difficult decision at the 12 week scan and that nature took its course.
I went for the D&C today. It went very routinely, I woke up very emotional and crampy. Had a good sit down on the floor and cry when I got home, but all better for the most part now.
I always thought this kind of thing only ever happens to someone else. But I must be honest I had a funny feeling this time. I told the world I was preg the first time at 8 weeks, this time my gut said wait till 12 weeks.
I guess the next step is too go on the pill and wait 3 months....
I must say one good thing about being 'off-duty' today was that DH had to deal with the poo down the toddlers legs.
