My DH and I have been trying to concieve our 1st baby for 3 years. I was diagnosed with PCOS 2 years ago and put on Metformin. After having so many BFN's and the stress it was putting on our marriage we decided to wait a couple more years. I went off my metformin in August. I was going to be put on bc in november.
DH deployed to Iraq oct. 28. At my drs. appt. for bc on Nov 2nd I had a confirmed pregnancy. quite the surprise since we all but gave up. I hadn't had a period since august! It was pretty much the happiest day of my life!! Everything seemed to be going fine. morning sicknes, cravings, etc. Yolk sac was seen on ultrasound Nov. 5 putting me at 5 weeks. Hcg level 36000.
After some cramping went back in Nov. 19. they told me now i was only measuring at 6 weeks 1 day?? and the baby had no heartbeat. My progesterone level was only 4.5 and my hcg had dropped to 15000. I am all by myself because my husband is deployed, this is our first child I felt as though they were speaking a different language to me. I was scheduled to go back on the 30th for another ultrasound. Nov. 24th at 4 am i woke up to major pain but no bleeding. By that night the bleeding began and I lost my baby. Its been 2 days I'm still bleeding idk if this is normal. I go back to the dr. monday to see if i passed everything myself or if I need a d&C. I am so scared, angry, sad. All of that. I havent talked to my DH in over a week because he i out of range. Which is making this so much harder.
I am so sorry for your loss!! I hope that things turn around for you and that you are able to conceive again soon. Hang in there!!
