I went in for my 8 wk appt. today and they couldn't find a heartbeat. The baby had grown some but there was no heartbeat. (heartbeat seen a week before) I 'm pretty much in shock and I think my dr. is too, that something like this could happen in a week's time. He is saying maybe I'm producing antibodies that attack the fetus. I will have surgery on Friday (he wanted to do it tomorrow but I couldn't get sub plans in time and it's my b-day so I said no). He's referring me to a high risk pregnancy ob who can run blood tests and look into why I am having these recurrent losses-and hopefully it will be covered by insurance!! Hopefully he can find answers for me. Right now I think Samantha and Christopher were miracle babies at the rate I'm going!
Thanks for your support through this trying time.
