I am 16 years old. I know that is fairly young. I went to the doctor today and they said that they could not detect a heart beat. Just a week ago, the baby was doing flips and its heart beat measured 188bpm. How is this possible could they be wrong? I do not want to go in for a d&c if my baby is still alive. What should I do?
I love thos post!!! I am having a similar situation... I go back to the doctor and they said they want to sch a D&C for me.... but I dont want it. I figure if it is menat for me to have a MC then th LORD will take my baby naturally. I dont want anyone take my baby when the baby can still make it. Thanks for this post it gives me encourgement!!!!
Hello....I am currently going through the same thing. My last period was on October 14, 2013 and found out I was pregnant Thanksgiving morning! I knew something wasn't right from the beginning. I scheduled a doctors appointment for Monday to confirm the home test(s). Yes indeed I was pregnant 7 weeks. Now although it was unplanned I was still excited. The following day my doctor called to come back to her office because some bloodwork came back and she wanted to discuss some things. She also did an ultrasound. It was showing that I was 6 weeks and 4 days, but they really couldn't see a fetal heartbeat. I was told to stay optimistic and we would wait a week and schedule another ultrasound. Went this morning and yet again no fetal heartbeat. I had lost the baby. D&C scheduled for tomorrow morning. I am 37 years old and want to be a mother so bad, but this heart break and feeling like I have failed yet again is too much for me to handle. It took me 13 years to get pregnant again since my first time, when I made it to 7 months and hemorraged and lost the baby. I have just about given up. Wishing all going through this trying and difficult time continued strenth! God Bless!!
I was also born October 29th 1976. I am 7 going to 8 weeks pregnant. I was told there is no cardiac activity. I believe in the God I serve and want Him to direct my path. Pray for me
Name your baby. Base it on your gut hunch of what gender the child was, or give the baby a unisex name. I had 5 miscarriages and named each baby I lost. I also had 8 full term babies and now, 15 years later, I can honestly say I saw God's wisdom in it. I loved my babies, but the ones that were conceived after my miscarriages were very special too, and they each had very unique problems. It is nice to think they had siblings on the other side of the veil to pray them through some very rough times. (One tried to commit suicide.) Maybe it is a delusional way of comforting myself these many years later, but I like to think they were instrumental in seeing my children through their tough times.
I know how hard it is. Talk to your baby. Tell them of the dreams you had for them, and how you long to hold them. Share with them what you imagine they will look like when you finally meet in Heaven. You will someday meet them. I promise.
Much love to all of you who have lost tiny precious little feet. Only we know how very precious each tiny toe was to us!
I'm very sorry for ur lost. I just learned that my baby doesn't have a heart beat anymore and I just saw the heart beat monday. I went to the ER for spotting no cramping or pain. They said my baby was very small but had a strong heart beat at 110 beats a minutes to going for my 1st ultrasound today to find how far along I was to hear that my baby don't have a heart beat anymore. I hcg has been going up and all. I was told 20 years ago I couldn't have children only to have had 2 miscarriages in the last 5 months. I feel like I'm here for nothing.... The real hurtful part is my co - worker is going to have an abortion Wednesday. I look at her so different now because my dream is to have my own child and can't and she is going to kill one... SO I really feel your pain...
I was wondering if the Dr told you this via sonogram or just using a Doppler
