Default Likely Blighted Ovum

Went in for my first U/S with this pregnancy and they couldn't find a baby. So they did an HcG and will do another on Friday to confirm. Rare chance they just couldn't find the baby, but I don't think so. Still have strong pregnancy symptoms and took an hpt when I got home and it was the darkest one yet. So frustrating.

We (DH and I) will talk about D&C (my doc would just do the suction curettage) vs. natural. I'm torn. With my last m/c, it started naturally and I went in to the ER. We had seen the hb a few weeks before. The "cramps" were a heck of a lot more than cramps -- felt like labor! I don't know if I just want to be waiting for that to happen and have to deal with that at work, or if I will just have the D&C done. Lots of threads on here I have been reading up on this afternoon.

I know there are disagreements with the term, but I do prefer blighted ovum as being more descriptive than early pregnancy loss.

I don't know how to feel yet, because I feel so darned pregnant. Just dry heaved from brushing my teeth last night!

Oh, I'm so sorry! ((HUGS)). I think you had a m/c around the time I did in June; right? It's hard to keep everyone straight. When it rains, it pours! I'll be praying for you and hoping the HcG on Friday comes back good! Keep us posted.

hi hunni, i found out at 8 wk scan we had a blighted ovum, there was no change at 9 week scan so opted for d&c at 10 wks, which was last fri.its the worst choice i have ever had to make its such a tragic position to be in.im finding the whole thing devestating and not sure how to face the comming months. i was wanting to pass it naturally but i had heard so many horror stories and also the fact it may not happen for up to 1 month so i finally made the descion to let the doctots intervene

good luck hun and keep us posted
try to stay positive untill ur scan

luv jo xx

Julie -- yes, I had just had a m/c June 19 at 10w5d.

I've been researching a lot with this one because of the potential diagnosis (B/O), and have found a great website that is helping (misdiagnosedmiscarriage.com). After reading many stories, I have decided I won't go for a D&E this week even if the HcG levels are not good. I will insist on a second VUS next week to confirm.

If we have lost this pregnancy, DH wants to wait a while before trying again. I don't want to. Although I must say, if I get pg again real fast and it is a sticky, I will have been pregnant for the better part of 14 months. If I have issues, I want to get them resolved before next summer, when we will be moving and I have to find another doctor.

Thanks for the thoughts and kind words.

((hugs)). I'm really hoping you have a pleasant surprise at the next U/S. Please do something special for yourself right now - this waiting must be awful.

Jonica - I'm so sad to read this thread. I'm praying that you have good news both today with your beta results and at your next u/s.
