Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Mikell ~ I am so sorry for your loss! I have not yet experienced any of this, so I can not begin to imagine how terribly hard it must be! You will be in so many of our thoughts and prayers! And thank you for taking the time to reply to me regarding my headaches. So far none of you have told me much helpful, but I love knowing people are out there trying to help us all out! God Bless Mikell... and I am with you... he gave you the desire and just the same will fill that in his own way in his own time! Be strong until then though! ~ Marcie > All, > > I am very sad to tell you all that we found out yesterday that I am having a missed m/c.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Mikell, I am so very sorry to read this. I posted a few weeks ago. I also have a T-shaped uterus and suffered an eerily similar experience as you. I was so hopeful that yours would turn out better than mine. I would encourage you to do a D & C, if possible, to know exactly the cause of the m/c. We tried to do one, but I had largely m/c'd the day before so the results were inconclusive, i.e., not enough tissue. My RE believes that it was most likely chromosomal, but he is also concerned about my lining b/c of the DES exposure. I have since gone on to have a chemical last cycle, and we're about to do a natural IUI tomorrow. Take some time to grieve this loss, but I know I was anxious to try again. We WILL be successful, I have no doubt. There have been millions of women exposed to DES who have gone on to have healthy babies. Mikell, you and I will, too! > All, > > I am very sad to tell you all that we found out yesterday that I am having a missed m/c.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 I'm so sorry Mikell. I have no idea what to say...other than how sorry i am. I have never had to experience this, so i have no idea what you must be going through, but it must be incredibly hard on both you and DH but don't give up. My thoughts are with you. Take care of each other. Ros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
