Tink I'm SO sorry. Have you seen this?? http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...g-quality.html
I am really nervous about you postponing for any reason...if there is any way, beg borrow or steal to get your next attempt in sooner, I would do it.
Thank you AS! Yes, I spent all of last night going over everything you had posted (I did a search on Google for the site, the search engine on site is flawed, it won't parse after the first page of results).Quote:

I hadn't eaten yet (no appetite) and my sugar level was crashing. The ladies there were great! When they asked what was wrong I told them I was the most pregnant, non-pregnant person I knew! Got some confused looks on that one. When I was finally brought in the nurse briefly went over what I was there for, if a surgery (d&c) was scheduled, and how I was feeling. I told her I am refusing a d&c, I'll let Mother Nature take it from here. She mumbled something about going to see the doctor. 10 mins later (and hearing them outside discuss not doing a check on me (internal)), my dr. came in and we discussed that for someone who was told I was going to miscarry over the weekend, I still felt very pregnant. We went over my er u/s results and compared them to the ones done in his office last week. There had only been 3mm growth in each sac over those 8 days. He mentioned a blighted ovum, which I was expecting to hear.
We decided to wait this out. Since I was feeling preggers still, no spotting or real cramping, we would wait to see what happens. He wasn't too hopeful for a miracle, but since he feels we're still in the running, we're going with a "threatened miscarriage" at this point. I had read that perhaps a tilted uterus could be hiding a baby, but he didn't feel that was the case (even though mine is reversed), he felt that they would have seen something by now. I did have my HCG levels checked again (still waiting for results). Back on the progesterone (I only missed 1 day) and praying for a miracle.
I am determined to fight for this pregnancy til the end, when Mother Nature decides! It ain't over til it's over!!!!
I'm :pray: for you, tinksmagic. I hope you get your miracle.
Thank you!!! Everyone's support really means a lot!!!!
I forgot to add:
Between the 8 days between my last u/s, each sac actually had grown about 3mm each, not the results they were looking for, but still growing. Sac #1 was 14mm and still showed remains of yolk sac (it was 11mm at er) and sac #2 was 11mm (was +/- 9mm at er). Dr says this *might be* due to methods used to measure, but unsure.
I'm still waiting to find out my HCG numbers and we're scheduling another u/s for this coming Friday. At least he's working with me to monitor all possible options!
If it is a blighted ovum I am not sure that waiting to naturally miscarry is a wise idea to be honest. I had a blighted oyum for my second pregnancy, back before I was u/s obsessed. Baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks 1 day......sac kept growing until I had my D&C at 17 weeks....the sac measured 15 weeks. Not a single sign that I would pass it naturally and it was still growing!!
Best of luck in this hard decision!
I just got off the phone with the ob's office. My next u/s is Friday for sure and my hcg rose from 20,662 10 days ago to 35748 today. Still a small glimmer of hope!
PoP, did your numbers still continue to rise during all of that? I figure I have nothing but time at this point and I don't want to be the one to make the termination call.
Hun, you are 9+ weeks? I really don't understand why your doctor is doing this. It doesnt sound like there is anything viable. I've never heard of letting this go on for so long and I've been around for over 4 years.
I just feel like nobody is being honest with you and that just isn't fair. You're not going to miscarry until you stop all Meds.
Hi, not sure if this helps? but I when for a scan at 6wks 1day I was told there was 1 (singleton) as only 1 heartbeat was seen, although looking at my scan pic now u can see 2 wee white sacs. The twin wasn't discovered as a 2nd baby until my 12wk scan. I didn't go for any more scans from 6wks 1d - until 12wks, so not sure at what piont they would of detected heartbeat number 2. Told sometimes this happens and the 2nd heartbeat can be a detected week later??
Hope things work out for you. Will keep checking. Thinking of u xx
NBP, not sure either, but he's hubby's cousin and wouldn't put me in jeopardy. Yep, at 9 weeks, but no one can figure it out, so he's ok with waiting, he'll keep monitoring, and I've got nothing but time at this point. Only meds I'm on are the vitamins and progesterone (which he said to keep using).
So now we wait til Friday and see...
