amy g. Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 I really did not want to go back to the hospital yesterday, so I called my midwife and she agreed with me that I am just having a very slow miscarriage. She said it is fine for me to just stay home and rest and continue my Progesterone. If nothing has changed by next Wednesday, I promised to come in for a sonogram. My poor Dh had to go out of town, but really I'm fine. I've unfortunately been through this before. Six years ago, I miscarried on Miss Good's birthday. We prayed so hard for a baby after that, and got two more. I told her that those are our miracle babies. God does not owe me another one. So, I'll just wait, and when I pass the baby, we can have a family funeral and burial, and hopefully get on with our lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peaceful Isle Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I should be 7 weeks, but I started bleeding today. Right now, the baby is alive, but only measures 6 weeks 0 days and has a heart rate of 86. I'm to stay in bed and stay hydrated and hope for the best. Who wants to pray for a tiny baby due Easter Sunday? Oh! Praying for the little one! :grouphug: ....I just read your recent post... Praying for you now! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer in MI Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Oh Amy. I'm so sorry you are going through this. Is there any hope at all? I have to ask because I was told I was miscarrying my dd around 7 weeks after seeing a heartbeat. I bled for the first trimester. She is now 6. This is eerily familiar! :grouphug: I'll pray for you and your family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cindergretta Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 :crying: I'm so sorry. :grouphug: Dh and I decided to try for a baby last summer. I lost four in a row. The first three, I had bleeding starting *every single time* on the *day* I turned 6 weeks. :( The last one, I lost in June, at 12 weeks. We had seen the heartbeat. It was supposed to be OK. (Your baby's due date coincides with Easter. Mine coincided with Christmas.) :grouphug: Praying. Understanding. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenC3 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 :grouphug: Last year when I m/c'd it started on a Friday (9wk 1day) and continued through Wed when I finally had the baby. It sucked. I'm so sorry and I hope they are wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amy g. Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 I dont think there is hope because it isn't just one problem but so many.....bleeding, measuring small, low heart rate, declining HCG, loss of symptoms. I could explain away one or two, but not so many. In any case, I'm still giving the baby the very best chance to survive by continuing my progesterone, and staying in bed. I just can't feel any hope.

I'm so sorry and I hope they are wrong. :( Yes. My last one started on a Thursday and I had the baby on a Wednesday. Seems a bit cruel to me, to add a long wait to the pain. :( Amy, if you are interested and if/when you are ready, I have a resource for memorializing your baby that was really beautiful for me, my family. You can PM me as I don't want to intrude with unwanted information. :grouphug: If you aren't interested, no worries. (((hugs))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amy g. Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 The whole situation is cruel if you ask me, but obviously no one asked me. On a happier note, Miss Good organized all of my kitchen cabinets, the two youngest girls have been playing SO NICELY all day. Right now, they are playing throw the dryer ball in the laundry basket, and I snuck out of bed to milk my goats and Miss Beautiful is making 2 kinds of goat milk fudge. Life is still so good.
