Hi everyone,
I had been posting under the topic of Strange Weekend in the 1st Trimester section but now it's more appropriate for me to be here.
This morning I went for a scan as I hadn't been feeling right since Saturday.
The sonographer looked at my tummy and said the sac was there but it wasn't as big as it should be for 11wks.
I had a TVU which showed the baby had stopped developing a between 9 and 10 weeks.
I was told that I could either let the baby miscarry over the course of 2-3 weeks or have an ERPC. I opted for the ERPC as I don't think I would have coped if I'd have seen my baby be discharged from my womb under these circumstances.
There's no bed for me today as another poor lady had been rushed to theatre with an ectopic and took the last bed available. I do not begrudge her that. It means I have to phone at 8am tomorrow and check my bed is still available and I'll have the procedure tomorrow.
I haven't stopped crying all day. Just seeing the sadness in my OH's face is enough to reduce me to a crumbling wreck. I can't believe my baby is dead inside me.
Thanks for those messages of support I've received in the other forum.
I will chat again soon.
Love
Fruityloop
