missed miscarriage - Update in original post Jan 3, 2013 15:44:58 GMT -5

I went to the doctor today. It was my second visit. At 7 weeks, everything looked good and we saw the heartbeat. Went in again (10 weeks) and today he did not see a heartbeat and he believes that something happened a couple of weeks ago. I was totally shocked. I even brought my mom this morning so she could see the baby.

He did a blood test just to confirm which I should get the results tomorrow. But, he already suggested a D & C for next week.

I thought everything was okay, so it is just a big shock.

Update - So, my doctor called this morning and he said the blood test was inconclusive. He wanted me to go visit the perinatologist right away because she had better equipment and she could probably tell me for sure what happened. I went and she did confirm that there was a miscarriage about 2 1/2 weeks ago. I am going ahead with the D&C next week.

I wanted to thank you all again for your support. I am grateful for all of your kind words. It helped a lot.

Thank you, everyone. I appreciate it.

He offered me the option of waiting to see what would happen naturally or to go for the D&C. Initially, it just sounded easier to go for the procedure.

But, I would appreciate any thoughts you have or would be curious to hear your stories if you went through this.

Thanks.

I'm so sorry.

I had a missed miscarriage as well. I went ahead with the D&C. I scheduled it a week out just to see if my body would start to miscarry on my own, and I didn't. For me I just wanted it to be over and done with, but it's really a personal decision.
