I started off with three

Hello everyone, I have normally posted in the fertility community. I am 8wks 6 days pregnant and until my ultrasound today, I was having tripletts. At my last us two weeks ago all the were nice and healthy good strong heartbeats all measuring 7mm each. I went in today, nervous but excited only to be told 2 have not made it? One stopped at 6days and the other a week ago.
How am I supposed to process this?? How can they be growing beautifully, I do not work I have been taking it easy to losing two right after each other??? I feel like I want to go back to sleep and wake up again and start the day over. I had a dream days ago they were three beautiful boys. I even named them. Is this it? Has anyone been told this and had a different result at their next us visit??

I know exactly what you're talking about.  I too had my second ultrasound on 9/2 and we discovered that our identical twins stopped growing approx 2 weeks ago (must've been right after our first ultrasound).  Fortunately, our singleton looks healthy and is growing exactly like it's supposed to.  It was bittersweet news....hard to deal with all the different emotions.  Don't question yourself....nothing you did or didn't do caused the babies to stop growing.  Thank God for giving you 3 babies for awhile and think about all the fun you had thinking about them....we shared a lot of laughter and joy thinking about what our future would be like with triplets!  We're sad and disappointed yet relieved because we will hopefully now have a normal, healthy pregnancy without all the horrible risks we were facing before.  I know it's hard sometimes to find the silver lining, but try to focus on the baby you do have and keeping you both strong and healthy.  Those 2 babies were yours....they're no less important and they will always be a part of your life.  Cherish your memories and look ahead at the wonderful future you'll have with your baby.  Take care.
