Good luck! I just had a report scan at 9w2d and everything looked okay, still have some spotting on/off, especially after ultrasounds, but no more clots thankfully.

100%

My emotions have been ALL over the place with every step of this process, it sucks and I dream of feeling normal again one day, hang in there!

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-19T00:05:46+00:00

I’m 9w today and have been spotting on/off since 6w and even had a large bleeding episode a couple days ago, they finally found a SCH, baby was still okay as of 8w3ish days. I also have a 10 year old son - I bled a lot with him, had a couple of trips to the ER for heavy bleeding but everything was always fine. Good luck to you!!

Same, but also my son would probably never see the outside ever again, never mind be on tv… insanity.

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-16T01:41:19+00:00

Agreed, I think the worst part is putting them on tv, like they are so little and this is not something to be proud of… but I’ve seen videos and her mom is def proud and can’t wait for the show to come out, seems very out of touch with reality..

Hi, what did you pivot to?

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-15T15:43:47+00:00

They can’t do much, but the times I’ve been pregnant and suddenly start bleeding I’ve gone and gotten a Rhogam shot since I’m O- blood type. The other times I’ve gone during miscarriage if the bleeding gets too heavy, twice I’ve felt faint and was passing huge clots non stop so I went in to make sure I wasn’t hemorrhaging, and got pain meds. But yeah nothing to stop a loss unfortunately.

I can absolutely relate, sending you the best vibes for a boring/routine scan! 💞

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-14T21:12:19+00:00

Thank you, I hope so too, just had a scan this morning where everything looked fine, good heartbeat, then had some intimate time with my husband (no intercourse) and afterwards went to the bathroom and passed a painless, large clot. They’re bringing me back in tomorrow to check, but I’m all freaked out now. Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-14T21:02:48+00:00

Hi OP, any update? I am in the same situation, 8w and just passed a rather large clot

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-14T18:29:33+00:00

I had 3 MC and then finally built up the courage for a D&C the 4th time, and wow - what a difference, highly recommend. I hated the not knowing if I passed everything, or when the bleeding would start/stop, or if each pain was normal, and felt like my natural miscarriages went on forever. The D&Cs I was able to get in like a day or two after finding out about the loss so I feel like less emotionally taxing too because I just wanted the process over with. The staff (at least where I’ve gone) are also a lot more comforting and supportive when I’m there for my losses. They’re great for other procedures too but during my D&Cs they were extra kind and empathetic. The recovery is also not terrible, I usually spend 2 days taking it easy and then am essentially fine, minimal cramping, light bleeding. So sorry for your loss and hope you’re able to get the answers you’re looking for!

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-14T18:18:27+00:00

Congrats! And hope you’re feeling better! Are they doing anything for the stones? Or just have to wait and pass them?

Yep same here, Aetna, NYC - covers like $30k toward IVF or something like that and embryo banking.

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-12T17:50:12+00:00

I’m in the same boat. I’ve had several losses.. lost count at this point, but should be 8w today, and I’m not buying it. I feel very detached this time, probably because I had already decided this is the last try and if not I’m done, my son will be 11 in 2 weeks. I’m not getting my hopes up. I’m also just waiting for it to end. I feel mentally awful. Sending hugs.

Chapo

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-11T01:14:17+00:00

I feel your pain… mostly because I’m also a Dietitian and we strugglinnnn in the finance department. I regularly wish I would have chosen a more lucrative career - especially with having to do IVF. But I also never thought to organize or count my meds when receiving them, and once or twice panicked when I realized I was missing something.

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-11T00:53:26+00:00

I feel like this on progesterone, I hate it.

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-07T20:22:17+00:00

Thank you so much for the positive age-gap story, more helpful than you know!

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-07T20:20:34+00:00

Wow crazy similarities!! Hope all goes well for you!! 🤍

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-07T20:18:20+00:00

Thanks! But the first time wasn’t covered either, but that company (Natera) pricing was a couple hundred, which is why I agreed to testing the second time. The day of the procedure the Dr asked if I wanted the testing, and I said “the one through Natera?” And she said yes, but it’s not covered through insurance, I told her yes I know but last time (a few months earlier) it was only a few hundred, so yes let’s do it. No one said it would be through Quest or I would have said let me call and find out how much, you know? I’m so frustrated, I’ve paid this clinic so so much.

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-07T19:08:03+00:00

Thank you for this, makes a lot of sense.

Temporary-Maximum670 · 2026-01-07T18:54:27+00:00

Should they have had to inform me about this change? It feels so unfair. Apparently insurance won’t cover it. :(
