TW: impending miscarriage, heartbeat after miso, small sac, bad HCG numbers…
I don’t know where to post this… I don’t belong in the miscarriage sub yet. I guess I don’t belong anywhere. I just need to get it all out because I feel so alone.
Long story short, I’m pregnant from an IUI. HCG doubled once from 20 to 62 in 48 hours. A whole week later and it was 150, so told to prepare for a chemical.
Numbers kept rising by 150-200 every 2-4 days so I was brought in at what should have been 6 weeks to attempt to rule out ectopic. Ultrasound showed 2 completely empty sacs measuring 4 to 4.5 weeks. Dates aren’t wrong due to IUI w/ trigger shot and no sex had after IUI. Ovulation confirmed with bloodwork.
Miso given and 2 rounds did nothing. At all.
Brought in 2 days later and there’s a 5w6d baby in a 5w sac with a heartbeat.
Second ultrasound baby is now 6w2d (should have been 6w3d based on last time, or 7w1d based on IUI) and sac is very small measuring 5w2d (2.8 mm difference b/t the two, so it’s not good) Heartbeat still there.
Told I will likely miscarry but just have to watch it.
How do I just wait for this to happen? I feel like I’m suffocating. This will be my 2nd loss in 6 months after a MMC after a heartbeat that required 2 D&Cs because the 1st one failed.
Extra sucky because due date for the first one is Monday Feb. 5 so that adds to the emotions.
Extra extra sucky because this was a “let’s just try one more” IUI before IVF and it stuck, but now I’ll be dealing with a miscarriage delay.
I’m exhausted and heartbroken and just need to get this out.
I’m praying for a miracle. RE has seen it go both ways, but I know the odds are absolutely slim. This waiting game is torture.
