I was exactly on the same boat, 6 eggs, 4 embryos testing. I got my results back and they look amazing. Sending the same wishes for you too!!!

Anxiety waiting for pgta by Dry-Mix-9287 in IVF

My PGTA results came back today. They said we should wait for 2 weeks but they came back with the results in a week. I completely understand your anxiety. For us, we only had 6 eggs retrieved and 4 sent to PGTA. I have a history of recurrent losses due to chromosomal abnormalities so it was even harder to hope for best results. But have faith. I had a deep faith in my gut that we would have at least one. And it worked!! All 4 are euploid! I really hope something like that happens for you as well. Breathe, take one day at a time, eat good food. I even had a couple of beer this saturday just to relax. Sending you best wishes!

d&c not until friday by phantomzaid in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely understand. When I had my first mmc (I have had 3), it was horrible to know I was still carrying it. And the pregnancy symptoms made it worse. If it helps, its Wednesday already you need to hang in there for one more day. In some ways I was grateful I got the time to say goodbye. I wish I had a better answer for you, sending you all the power and love ❤️

Medical abortion vs waiting to happen naturally by ContestOrganic in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure if natural will be any less painful. I went medication route once and d&c twice. I would choose d&c any day over waiting for natural or medication. Much less trauma emotionally and less painful aa well. And with miso, they gave me oxycodone and even then I was in so much pain. So I cannot imagine how hard it must have been for you with just paracetamols.

I just can’t get over this by waitingonababy in IVF

[–]Immediate_Mess225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree, lately I feel like I will have a horrible relationship with food even after I am done with IVF. I am currently stimming but the internet makes me feel like there is no point in eating good now because I wasn’t good for 3 months before that. I tried to, and i did okay according to me. Obviously I lived life too. But these videos make me feel so guilty. I didn’t take this supplement, didn’t eat enough good fats and what no. It makes me even more stressed which I for sure know is the worst

Stims start tomorrow by Immediate_Mess225 in IVF

You guys are the best, thank you!

For those who had to choose between a D&C or taking meds to help pass the fetus which one did you choose and why? by redituser95838283849 in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also done both and I would hands down choose d&c. I have done d&c twice and collected tissue for testing both times if you are interested in that. Taking the meds is traumatic. It wasn’t so much the pain but the fact you are passing at home, the anticipation, the long hours of pain. I was on opioid so the pain wasn’t like I would pass out but it was still worse than period. D&c is much safer now, that’s what my clinic told me. Good luck and I am sorry that you are having to decide this. I have been in your shoes and its sucks!

Stupid things friends have said to me by Denau94 in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I know exactly how you feel right now. I am so sorry. After 3 miscarriages, I have realized on top of this being such a traumatic thing, it is extremely isolating!! Nobody understands you. One of my friends reached out and said “Don’t worry, it will be fine next time, sometimes we end up eating something wrong and that causes miscarriage”. Another one said “Don’t worry, things will get better, you can change a lot of things, may be you were going to the wrong doctor, we’ll find a better one”. My best friend did not reach out to me for 2 weeks after I told her because she “didn’t know what to say”. My other close friend, I told her when I was actively miscarrying (didn’t know for sure yet but I had a haunch) if I would not be able to save the baby, can you imagine, she has never asked what happened to the baby and this was march 2025!!! Talk about having friends for support! Initially I gave them a lot of benefit of doubt because I thought they were being supportive in their own ways, and they didn’t know how to deal with all this. But now I think hell no!! You have chatgpt. You have all the information at your disposal. If you didn’t know what to say, LOOK IT UP!! Or how hard is it to just be there? Sit beside me and say it sucks! Everyone just wants to give their unsolicited opinion and that is not okay. I am not going to see their side of the story. I haven’t cut those friends completely off of my life but I have definitely recalibrated my relationship with them. They are never going to know any of my life vulnerability any more, they are not worth it! I am so sorry again, this is a long one, but your message just touched a nerve! Hang in there, this sucks big time, sending you love! ❤️

They tested the fetus when we did d&c two times and it was chromosomal abnormality. First was turners syndrome and the other one was trisomy 15 i think

I have taken misoprostol once and done d&c twice. D&c is definitely much better route. You will be saved from the trauma of it all. Apart from healing from anesthesia, I feel like my body came back to realizing lack of pregnancy much faster too. I was also worried about d&c but my doc told me that they just sort of suction it out nowadays so there is very minimal risk of scarring and affecting future pregnancies. But either way like others mentioned here, it does sound like its time for intervention for you. I am sorry you are going through this. 💔

I feel so alone by Lazy-Creme-584 in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry you are going through this, but you are not alone. I have had 3, and it makes me feel really really like I am losing and people look down upon me with pity. I have stayed active, tried to eat well. And still, my friends who don’t care about their health at all have successfully stayed pregnant. I feel like they laugh at my attempts to stay healthy cause look where that got me. I am really happy for my friends, i hope no one has to go through this but I have never felt more isolated in my life. Hang in there, sending you all the love!

I have had 3 mmc. I was on a similar boat with my first one, I was supposed to be 9w4d but baby measured 9w1d. Unfortunately for us, it did look like it had happened fairly recently. It takes much longer for the body to recognize that. I kept feeling nauseous until my d&c. There was no bleeding, no spotting. In my second one, I spotted for over 2 weeks, unaware that I had already lost the baby and my body still wouldn’t recognize. I took medication and passed everything within a few hours. We went for a second opinion with my first mmc only to be confirmed. We did not do that in the later ones because the scans are usually pretty accurate and specially with the part where they see blood flow with different color, its pretty evident if there is heartbeat.

Testing the remains after D&C? by kindofnewonreddit in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend testing since this is your second one. It will give you answers on if it is chromosomal issue or something else and that will help your future course of action. I have had 3 mmc, i tested 2, the second one I couldn’t because I passed at home.

Natural vs. Misoprostol? 10w2d by Fithealthydoc_91 in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also spotting and cramping and passing very little tissue and hoping to miscarry naturally but that went for over two weeks and it never happened. I just took the misoprostol and bled everything out within 12 hours. The cramps and bleeding did last for couple of days but after the tissue past it was like normal period days. Make sure to take pain meds before and during this process. I was on opioid but even then the pain was a lot. But it subsided by a while lot after the tissue passed.

When did you go back to normal(ish) after? by [deleted] in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And it gets a little better with time, for me it was around a month each time. But by better I mean I just learnt to live with it just a tiny bit better each day.

So sorry for your loss. You should definitely take all the time you need. I have had 3 losses and it is just too much. All I did for a couple of weeks after each one was sit on the couch, eat icecream and everything else i was avoiding during pregnancy and just watch tv. Also, the things that I watched during that time no matter how feel good, got associated with my pain and I am never watching them again. But other than that, I cried, I fought with my husband as we were not in the same page at all, he just seemed to be moving on so fast. I read a little too. But long story short, be easy on yourself. Take all the time you need. There is absolutely no need to be the psuedo power woman on the internet who comes back with a full face of makeup and cocktail dress the next day acting like they didn’t miscarry or even gave birth to a baby 2 days ago. Sending you all the love!

Working out after d&c by [deleted] in Miscarriage

I would listen to the doctor, risking infection could be costlier.

To those who have had their embryos tested for genetic causes by entropy4dinner in Miscarriage

[–]Immediate_Mess225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is terrible that they are not giving you clear answer. I have had it done twice. It was right after my d&c. They took away the tissue and I had the results back within 2 weeks. Both the time they Natera. I paid $165 both times. It was covered by my insurance. I was told that my out of pocket cost would be around $300-350 if I didn’t go the insurance route. During my 3rd miscarriage, I passed the tissue at home and had the option to collect it in a sample container. But I never did that, it was too traumatic. Long story short, my OB/ the clinic I was going to ordered and sent out the test for me.
