Officially blighted ovum ??
So I had it confirmed today, was supposed to be 7 +2 and I have empty sac that is measuring 5 weeks, it's actually unbelievable how unlucky I feel ATM, first the ectopic and now this, it's pretty hideous and I'm wondering how I can afford to keep going, I'm going on holiday in a days time and it's probably come at a good time but if anyone has suffered the same thing does anyone know when I would expect to bleed? I've stopped all drugs from today x
Sorry I didn't reply to the advice on this post, I felt so sorry for myself I needed some time out, hope you are all doing well. Little baby looking forward to your updates in October, fingers crossed for good news! Maldives you were so right, I never quite expected the degree of bleeding etc and just when I thought I couldn't bleed anymore I went for a scan and i had tissue stuck, they wanted to keep me in hospital and manage me but I just wasn't prepared for them to say that so I got upset and refused and ended up with misoprostol and access to the ward if I needed it.. i have what I hope to be my final scan today. I haven't booked an appt with fertility/ivf doc yet to discuss, to be fair I think I need to have some time away so I can get my body back to where I was before treatment and I can't afford to keep throwing thousands of pounds into treatment ATM, we don't have any embryos left. I'm going to give it until after the new year and see how things are ??. In the mean time I hope everyone has happy healthy pregnancies x
Hi Lizzie.. so sorry to hear this! I remember you from the May group. I too, just had a blighted ovum. We actually went on vacation a couple days later too (already planned for hubs bday) and I ended up having a natural mc while we were away. It was heartbreaking but also felt nice to be away from the normal grind. Sending you hugs. I hope you find a way to try again. xx
Don't be discouraged... I had a blighted ovum last year... I thought I was doomed and my eggs were bad and Turns out it's super common and actually a blessing in disguise. RE explained some women carry genetically imperfect babies to full term while others bodies recognize the genetic defect early on and don't let you continue the pregnancy. It took me about 6 months to get over it emotionally but you will get pregnant again and you will have a happy healthy baby! It took almost a year for me after thAt to get my Ivf bfp and babies are perfect! Give yourself time... best thing you can do. I'm sorry you are going through this... totally sucks. I know!!
