Pp, so sorry to hear your news. (Op here). I was thinking of you. I am so glad I did the d&c, having gone through a miscarriage without it years ago. Emotionally, it has been much better to have some closure. Lots of hugs to you, and hoping you have great success with your frozens!

Nope. Embryo only grew two days in a week and is measuring 6w3d at 8weeks. Heartbeat down to 50s. Doctor says 99.9 I will miscarry. I decided to see if it would happen naturally over the weekend and regret my decision. Since I stopped the meds my nausea is so bad it's just a constant reminder my body is working toward nothing. Gonna call to schedule d&c tomorrow. I feel very lucky however to have 8 embryos on ice. Last time I did this we only had two, and one of those took. It makes it much less difficult. Good luck OP

10:42, my thoughts are with you. Hope it turns out better for you.

I'm so sorry OP. I've been in your shoes. My last two frosties became my two children - I wish the same for you.

Hugs.

Thanks for sharing your experience, OP. My next ultrasound is tomorrow at SG (I'm the one who measured 5 days small with low heartrate.) Your post is actually a wake up call for me to go in with a realistic frame of mind. That will be helpful. Thank you. Good luck with your recovery.

You sound brave and strong, OP. I hope you get through the d&c as easily as possible and are back here soon with news of a successful FET.

Op here. Thanks for the support. I elected to do a d&c, since both sacs are still present and letting nature take its course could take weeks and be particularly painful.
Sounds like different drs at shady grove have different positions on slow growth. Mine clearly indicated it is not normal for ivf. I wanted to share that for those who might read this post later. We will take time to recover from this, then get back in the saddle since we have 2 frozen embryos, and try again, God willing. This forum has helped me keep my sanity through these past few weeks. Thank you.

many hugs to you OP.

Yes, I measured a week behind. I must have just ovulated late. Healthy pregnancy.

I'm sorry OP. Do you mind my asking what happens next? Do you just wait?

I'm really sorry, OP. I went through the same thing while a patient at SGFC. Sucks.

I am so sorry OP! Lots of hugs.

NP.
I'm so sorry for you.

Thanks pp. I had my 8 week u/s this morning, which confirmed the embryo stopped growing. We are sad but felt prepared.

It was at SG. He had strong HB so maybe that's why Dr was not concerned? I don't know. I was told not to worry and they discharged me to regular OB after that scan.
