Waiting for miscarriage confirmation

Rachael

At my dating US earlier this week, I should have been 7w4d. There was a sac but no fetal pole visible in the scan. I know this is very high probability of non-viable pregnancy. But it really sucks being stuck waiting for the miscarriage to be confirmed, with no hope. I’m getting blood work done now to check hcg, and have follow up ultrasound scheduled on the 9th.

My last pregnancy ended in MMC - 1st US measuring small but had heartbeat, 2 week follow up US no heartbeat. I found that wait much easier as I at least had hope after seeing the heartbeat.

I’m finding it really hard to manage my mental state and emotions waiting. I’d rather my body just accept the loss and start recovery - so I can try again for a healthy pregnancy.

Any tips on staying balanced during this time?
