There is no easy way to say it, but the my biggest fear came true.
I went to the doctor on Friday and the ultrasound this time didn't even show a fetus (the last one did) just a sac and the placenta. So they prescribed me some pills that would "clean out" my uterus in 4-6 hours. I decided to do that because letting it happen naturally could have happened in a few days or a few weeks, and to do a D&C has it's own risks. (I don't know who it was that said it in my last post, but I'm a little irritated too that the ER doc offered a D&C to me rather quickly, especially knowing that this other option was out there.) I took the pills Friday night and Saturday I felt like absolute crap. I'm doing MUCH better today, which is suprising since it's Mother's Day. I just have the greatest family and they took good care of me.
My husband and I are trying to look at the positives. One, that at least we know we can do it now. It took so long to get pregnant that we were beginning to think we couldn't. And two, I know that being in the best health I possibly can will only help the situation. Not that I wasn't okay this time, but this just gives me more motivation!
