I'm back here again I'm afraid

Post by beckym »

Hi to the OCBs and NCBs. I'm afraid I'm back. Our 8 week scan on Monday showed that I had had a missed miscarriage shortly after week 6 - there was just a sac there, no embie, it had been reabsorbed. We were both gutted but kind of expecting it as initial hcg levels and 6 week scan results were not that great. Had a D&C on Tuesday morning. Just can't wait to see the back of 2003 as it has been a horrific year for both of us - I have been in hospital 4 times (twice with ohss) and dh has been in hospital twice. We are hoping to cycle again in April/May, but in the meantime dh is going to see an andrologist to see if there is anything they can do to raise the sperm count as we have not investigated this yet. Also have my follow-up appt with Mr T on Jan 16th. We are also going to look into adoption from abroad at the same time. Have got through the last 72 hours and feeling a lot more positive now about things, particularly as I know that Tracey S has got pg again. Traci, sorry it couldn't have been a happier ending!! beckym xxx

Hi Becky,<br><br>so sorry to hear your bad news.Why life is so cruel to some of us I just don't understand. As the other have said though you sound as if you are felling pretty positive, I think once you make the decision that you are going to go again you sort of feel a bit better as you have renewed hope.<br><br>Lots of love to you and dh<br><br>thinking of you<br><br>Julie xx

Becky,<br><br>Oh you poor thing. I have a feeling I will be joining you too shortly. Both you and I had lowish hcgs. Do you remember? I have 6 week scan tomorrow. AAAAAAAAAAAAArgh. What is perhaps worse is that we are escaping UK for a tiny island in the Canaries for two weeks. Already planning where to have the D & C.<br><br>I don't know how to console both you and DH, except to remind you that we are all thinking of you, and support whatever you choose to do. We too are considering adoption from abroad.<br><br>Try and survive Christmas,<br>With love from us here, Nicky Phil and M.

Becky,<br><br>I'm sorry for your lose. My hubby and I also experience the same experience just a little over a month ago. It was heartbreaking, but it answered a big question that I had... that I can conceive. My prayers go out to you and DH. I am scheduled to have another IUI tomorrow and praying that it will turn out positive. <br><br>Take care,<br>Dineah
