2005-08-21

Name: vivi hi all,
I had blighted ovuum and was hoping very strongly before every USG to see my l'll baby grow in the sac only to my despair! At last in the 3rd USG my DR prescribed me to undergo D&C which I did on 17th .Back home ..leaving behind all mybaby's dreams in the hospital. R there any dangers in the future pregnancies?Is there anyone to share their exp with me?

blighted ovum

Vivi,
I suffered from a miscarriage @ 8.5 weeks. After having an internal u/s, the doctors informed me that the were able to see a sac, but it was flat/oval like rather than being round. There was no yolk sac seen. Therefore, they told me that this is a result of an anembryonic pregnancy/blighted ovum. I went through a lot of pain for the next few days - did not require a D&C since my body was able to pass the tissues naturally.

This was our first pregnancy. We had told our family and some close friends.
The doctors told us this is a common type of miscarriage. The worst thing is that my sisters, mom, and cousins had no problems during pregnancy! Why me?

Be positive, take care of your body, eat well, take your vitamins, and be positive.

Best of luck and let me know what happens.

Always have faith and things turn well!

Hi mina,
So sorry to hear about the loss.Have faith and everything goes well. I know initially it is very hard and to overcome depression is so hard.
Even in my family no one had this kind of prob.. Doc say 1 in 3 pregnancy r miscarried. In case of blighted ovum, I read that..if the ombryo is not naturally competent i.e not a heathy fertilization..or some defects in the chromosomes.. the nature itself takes action and stops the pregnancy..
whatever happens is for good I believe.
The Goodnews is that I am 10wks preg now and waiting for 2nd reg. checkup soming saturday.
Just be patient, keep urself busy enjoy ur hobbies for 3-4 months and u can try for the baby. and take xtra care next time.
goodluck
vivi

May God bless u!

Vivi,
I am a victim of 20th week preg termination of twins due to some major probs.Life after the termination is sooo tough & like u so many of us have to undergo this trauma....its really a very difficult time & u never get over it completely but let me give u hope....i am mom to a cute baby girl whom i gave birth after 1.5 years of losing the previous preg. Medically u won't have any probs, coz such incidents are only one time & beyond our control....they have nothing to do w'h our incapacity whatsoever.
Have faith, the next preg is tough coz we worry so much, are so nervous if everything's right but ul be...after sometime when u recover consult a good dr & go ahead & plan...till then peace to u & ul be in my prayers!
Take care

Congrats

I have a two yr old son. I lost a baby during the 18 week of my second pregnancy. We were not given a clear reason for the baby's death. I cannot imagine what it is to conceive again and then the 9 months of pregnancy after that. Each day will be very tough. I am not yet ready to go there. But I would like for my son to have a brother or sister. At this point, I am surrendering my self to God.

Your daughter must be so very precious. I am so glad you had her!

My best wishes, SMom

Same was with me

Hi all,

I can understand what u wudbe facing as I too had to face all these things last month.In the 6th month of pregnancy I went of U/S and found that the brain was not formed and we consulted 4 to 5 doctors and they said that it is a rare case thats 1 in a 1000 cases and no specific reason and need to terminate the baby and this is the 1st time pregnancy for me.This happened on 26th of July when I started talking to my baby who was breathing and could hear his heartbeat as well.We even started searching names for him and I packed my things to go to my mom's place for the delivery and baby shower and this incident took place.I am the 1st sibling in my family and my hubby is 1st sibbling in his family, so things were worse as our parents were waiting for the baby eagerly.Last month same day I had to terminate the baby.And the worse thing is that my Hubby's cousin's wife(My co-sis) and my hubby's cousin Sister are also carrying and expecting baby in Jan where as mine was in Nov.And we are all in same city and go to the same doctor.And their reports are normal.So u can imagine the amount of depression I wud be facing.This month 9th and 10th they had their baby shower function here and mine did not happen so u can imagine the pain i wud have undergone.I am sorry if i bugged u.I was just trying to let u know that my case was similar and I have 2 people carrying b4 me..
Please thing that what ever happens is good for us as something good is waiting.Instead of having a abnormal baby or a baby who is not normal after delivery its better not to have a baby.I can understd what u wud be feeling as I felt the same last month.Think that you knew this now rather than comming to know abt this after 9months when evry 1 is eager to c the baby.Thanks to Science..Now u need to be brave and take things +vely and take care of uand ur hubby as well..
Please keep in touch..

Have faith

Hi
I had a missed abortion in Jan 2005 in 11th week.I had no bleeding & no other problems ,just the US showed that the baby stopped growing.I went through D&E.I went through all the possible tests including genetic & chromosomal abnormilities test.No result.Still don't know y it happened.
well,I am pregnant again & am in my 3rd month.
So don't worry.I gave 5 months before planning again to heel completely emotionally & physically.
Take good rest,try to relaxe ,eat goo.Try to eat healthy & see ,you'll be ready in some time for trying again.
Don't forget to follow up with your Gyn & ask her when can you start trying again coz all cases r different & she'll know best about your case and if any precautions or medications to be taken.
Take care.

You are not alone

Vivi,

Sorry that I do not know anything about blighten ovum. I can only say that I just lost a baby at 18 weeks and am going through a similar situation. What makes it worse is that we don't know yet what caused the death. I had to be induced and the 2 day wait to deliver my baby was very traumatic.

I hope you will find strength and will be able to find answers for the future. I just felt like reaching out to you.

Thoughts and prayers, Aarti

RE:Coping With a Miscarriage

Infertility is a very hard thing to hit a woman. I can't imagine what it must be like. My sister went through it. She was told that she was infertile by her doctor. Her husband was a doctor too, but besides all the knowledge they could do nothing. Then they tried going for IVF. At first they were resistant, they were double minded.
