Hi all,

I just wanted to share my story in hopes we can encourage one another. I found out I was pregnant with my first on Saturday 11/12/22. I was super ecstatic, scheduled my first pregnancy confirmation appointment which was for 12/12. I began to bleed lightly on Sunday 11/27, a day after my birthday. The bleeding got really heavy with cramping and clotting. I went to the ER on Monday 11/29, received a ultrasound and blood work. My hcg was only 280 and it was ruled as a threatened miscarriage but was told to follow up with my OB/GYN. I went to the doctor on Tuesday where my cervix was checked and was told everything looked okay but to come back Wednesday for labs. My labs Wednesday went down to 71 which is when I knew I was definitely miscarrying. Fast forward to today, my levels were recently checked on Monday 12/12 and is now at 2.6 which is considered normal range. My husband and I will begin trying again once my first cycle comes. Long story short, I was devastated, depressed and angry. We tried for 6 months and finally got our wish, but it was taken away so early. I was about 6 weeks but it felt like I was so connected. Today I am in a much better head space mentally, have hope and believe that everything happens for a reason. Sprinkling baby dust to all my fellow ladies out there who’ve experienced what I have or is ttc. 🌈❤️✨
