I had my u/s this morning. The baby was measuring a few days behind with no heartbeat. The doc said that the heart must have stopped a few days ago. I hate finding out this way! It totally sucks. So it looks like a D&C for me which also sucks. The doc said that they could do testing on the tissue and that I can also have blood tests done to see if there is anything that keeps causing this to happen. I have a 14 month old son so I don't know if testing is what I should do. Ugh! I just want it to be over.

Iam so sorry about your loss. I just had a missed miscarriage a couple of weeks ago and had to have a d&c. I think u posted to me on my post. What all meds were u taking with this pregnancy? I dont think having test and stuff would hurt. I just get tired of doctors having no explanation something is going on. Hopefully u will find some answers.
I'm so sorry for your loss... I understand!
Being that you have a son means it's possible but testing the tissue MAY tell you something so I would do it.. it won't hurt.

I am thinking about something and let me know what you girls think. Not like I am holding on to hope or anything but...
I was measuring 8 weeks 1 day at the u/s today. according to my calculations I should be 8 weeks 2 days. Kinda close huh?
She was having a hard time visualizing. She said that the sac and fetus where up against a my uterine wall and that my uterus was in a position that makes it hard to visulaize.
She did put the little red and blue contrast on there to see if there was a heartbeat but it was very hard to visulaize what was going on.
I am supposed to schedule a D&C tomorrow. I think I am going to ask for a repeat u/s before I let them do anything just to ease my mind. It is just odd that the baby is only measuring one day off of my EDD.

I would have another u/s done maybe even see if they would check your hcg levels I was adviced to do that. If anything it will make you feel better and you dont want to have to wonder what if forever. I would.
Thanks for all the support everyone. I went for another u/s today. This time with a different tech and a better machine and there was no growth or heartbeat. She was very nice and showed me everything. She said it looks like my body is trying to m/c because things are starting to break apart. She said that she is 100% sure that there is no heartbeat and asked if I was sure about my dates and I said I was positive. One of the other docs that I know in the practice came in and took a look and he said that he is sure too. We got a really good look at everything and it is just not good. I am starting to have an increase in cramping. He did do a beta and I will have another one on Friday before the procedure but he said at this point in pregnancy the beta is not a definate answer and that an u/s is the most telling. He said that if he thought there was a chance he would cancel my D&C. He was upset about how the other doc treated me and said that he would deal with that. She is new with the practice and I told him that I will never go see her again.

I am glad they double checked and that the doctor this time was better understanding.... and I am so sorry that they were right, Miracle.
I'm sorry for your loss, and the situation.
(*hugs*)
