This is her friend Rina and I just copied a post from another friend that she called.
She's losing the baby.
There was only 3 days of growth since the last u/s ... and there was barely a heartbeat (around 60 bpm). They don't think this one will make it, that the heart will stop beating in the next few days. Said to give it until Thurs for another u/s ...
Chelle is devasted. She could barely talk.
Sorry I couldn't bring better news for you ladies.
OMG! Please give her our love and support. I really hope there's a miracle and things turn around by Thursday. She is in all of our thoughts and prayers.

i can't stop crying. i am thankful i have my shelly as a reason to keep going on b/c i really don't know what i'd do. pretty scary. this is the end of the ttc road for me. i hope to get the energy to dive into adoption soon as i don't want kids too far apart but who am i to try to "plan" anything. it never works out. we will see what God has in His plan. right now i don't understand it. i've been pregnant 4 times and only have my precious shelly. . . pray for my sanity, my husband to not leave me as i enter into depression (AGAIN), and my dear daughter. she already said "mommy sad". she learned that word today

Rachelle - words cannot express how sad I am for you. You are so strong . . . you will get through this, too. Do they have any idea why this keeps happening to you? Have they checked for immune issues or clotting issues? I just wish there was an ANSWER, and I'm so sorry you have to go through this again. Just hold your Shelly close, and know that you are loved, and you, your husband, and your daughter will get through this terrible time together.
I am so sorry. This is not at all what I expected. It is so hard to understand why this happens . . . I hope that the love of your sweet Shelly, your DH, and your extended family and friends get you through this difficult time. My heart goes out to you sweetie.
Rachelle, many coming to you and that your little bean has some fight left in him/her to hang on and thrive. This is so not what we expected to hear, but know that we are here for you as you need us to be. Lean on God, lean on your family, lean on us... I'll for God to give you the strength and fortitude to get through this. We love you sweetie.

yes, heartbeat but so slow they couldn't measure. 60-80 bpm i don't expect it to make it much longer. i'm not waiting a week this time. i think my thurs the baby will have passed so i'll have an u/s to confirm and then a D&C. i tried to miscarry naturally in dec. and still had to have a D&C so i'm just doing it this time . . .

Did the doctor give you any idea why this would happen? You seem to get pregnant and have such strong betas . . . it just doesn't seem right that the baby has arrested 2x now. I guess that doesn't make it any easier . . . perhaps there was an issue with the donor eggs? I wish I could fix this for you.
i dont' know why-dr. didn't give answers. and the eggs might not work w/ dh's sperm? we went w/ the same donor b/c it worked the first time with shelly? the donor was a good one w/ many successes. i had to wait for her this second time around as others wanted to cycle w/ siblings as well. i think i had immune testing a long time ago? doesn't matter now as i am not going to cycle again. . .
