Here’s my story..

Hannah

Me and my SO were so excited to announce that we were going to be parents. At 10 weeks and 4 days I had a doctors office with the prenatal nurse.. she said that everything sounded like i was on a road for a healthy pregnancy... little did I know the very next day I’d get the worst news of my life.. I was 10 weeks and 5 days.. there was a lady in my home town who did ultrasounds out of her house. So of course my excitement got to me and I scheduled to have one done that day. I went in so excited to see my baby and hear my babies heart beat.. she then told me that my bladder wasn’t full enough.. she tried to hear the heart beat and it was just a flat line, but she just told me my bladder wasn’t full enough is why she couldn’t hear anything.. she rescheduled me and told me to come back In a few weeks.. then whenever my and my SO left the room she pulled my mom aside and said I should have still been able to hear the heart beat she needs to go to the doctor before her next appointment.. whenever my mom came outside she told me what the lady had said and we went straight to the hospital... being there for almost 8 hours they told me the ultrasound I did at the hospital confirmed the one I had at that ladies house.. there was no fetal heartbeat and my baby had stopped growing at 8 weeks and 5 days.. so my baby had been dead for 2 weeks and I had no idea. I was devastated.. still am. The following Monday I went to my obgyn and they also confirmed no heart beat. They gave me a option of a d&c or letting my body take its course and rejecting the baby as it should.. i couldn’t decide because either was so horrific to me.. I decided to wait and then schedule a d&c this past Sunday night I started to miscarry the past few nights have been nothing but horrible pain and exhaustion, I hate that anyone has to go through this... this would have been my first child still is my first child. Even though my baby is in heaven I’m still a mom, one day I can’t wait to meet my baby in heaven..
