I am here for advice. Hoping someone here has some words of encouragement or advice.
So here is my story.
My name is Samantha and I am 22 years old. My husband and I have been married for nearly 3 years and have been TTC since we got married. We started trying Dec 2nd, 2010 and it took until April 2013 in order to conceive. I found out I was pregnant April 20, 2013 and by May 3rd I was already miscarrying. My husband and I where devastated but still hopeful that our rainbow baby would come soon. It took me 36 days to miscarry from start to finish. My hCG levels where back to zero by the end of the 1st week of June and we where told we could start trying again after 3 normal periods. So we waited. And we waited and no period came. The doctor told us it could take a little while to get back to normal and to just wait. So on July 9th I began my period and we where super excited that in 3 more months we could try again. Day 7 of my period I became a little concerned as my period had usually tapered off to nothing by this point. I called my doctor and she said a miscarriage could throw those things off. I waited for the period to end and it didn't not for 25 days. On the 25th day I had had enough and went to the ER. I thought for sure I was miscarrying again somehow or I was somehow bleeding to death. The ER did blood tests and both a trans abdominal and trans vaginal ultrasound and told me that I was not pregnant and was not having a miscarriage. Blood work showed that my hormones where leveling out which was causing the crazy bleeding. The next day the bleeding stopped and I hoped that the following period would be normal. Only August rolled by with no more bleeding and September came with nothing. So on a whim I took a pregnancy test on Oct 19 and sure enough BFP. I have since then had blood work which indicated everything is normal but the ultrasounds I have had not so much. On Wednesday my doctor told me she feels that I have a blighted Ovum. I would like to show you my ultrasound pics to get your opinion.
The first was taken the 30th of September, the second was taken 10/9/13 and the last was taken Wednesday 10/16/13
The doctor says I am measuring right at 6 weeks in the last ultrasound.
