Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi all -

Despite seeing a heartbeat at 7 1/2 weeks and taking crinone for an initially low (12), though ever increasing progesterone level, the ultrasound today at 9 1/2 weeks showed a correct for age gestational sac (explaining the awful nausea I've still been experiencing) but no more baby - just a pile of debris on the floor of the sac. It was a huge shock. This was my third miscarriage this year - the other two all had cramping, spotting, and never saw anything in the sac. I also had a miscarriage 10 years ago (just before I got pregnant with my now 8 year old daughter) - another blighted ovum. I've also had an endometrial polyp removed this year, and an ectopic. Hard to say if any of this is related, but I'm 37 and don't have much time left, but don't have much energy for this anymore either. My doctor is testing the fetus for chromomal abnormalities this time, and talk of sending me for extensive specialist testing. I think I'm ready to just give up, though. This has been too hard.
