I was diagnosed with a blighted ovum at 11w/6d- I went in because I was bleeding. I was scheduled the next day to hear the heartbeat for the first time (they don't do the sonogram until 20 wks). I went in and they couldn't find a heartbeat and when they did the transvaginal ultrasound, there was just an empty sac. This was on a Thursday (May 19th) and I was scheduled for a D&C on Tuesday (May 21st), but that Saturday, I woke up hemorrhaging and had to have an emergency D&C. It was my first pregnancy and I am still devistated over it. I am getting my hcg levels checked every week until they reach 0. It was 10 when I got it checked this week. I am just wondering how long I should wait to try again. It has been 6 weeks since my D&C and I still have not had a period.
