Nurse who conducted my u/s called...........

I was surprised to see their # on my caller id. she was calling to check on us and answered some questions i had. i read a cpl stories online where there were successful preg. w/ lg. yolk sacs. welllllll..  im sure thats not the case w/ me. mine was 16mm!  the lgst one ive even read about was 11mm. so, yea. its inevitable at this point. i had assumed my sac had grown, but she said it had not grown in 3 weeks since my last visit. it actually shrunk 1mm. what she measured at 6weeks, she isnt even sure it was the embryo :/  the doc is coming in to look at it th is afternoon. she said she will call me back. i told her my fears of a d&c and then again, im scared of hemmoraging w/ this m/c cuz im further along this time. she said i should be able to pass it w/ no problem, as its about the same size as last time. i sure hope so. i know i sound like a wimp. lol  i dont honestly understand it. i had 5 outta 6 kids natural, and im scared to go under for a 10 min procedure. go figure. :(    well i thought i would update anyone who was interested. thanks for being there for me girls!!

thank you ladies. i know i am so blessed to have my children, sometimes when id be praying i felt selfish for praying for another healthy child. there are so many wonderful people who are trying to have just one, and here i am w/ 6 praying for another one. but i know, its only natural for a mother to want a happy and healthy child, so i keep telling myself that. (not that it always works)  im just taking it day by day, and holding onto hope that it will be fast and easy. (yea right lol no such luck) the emotional healing, well, its weird, but i have a peace about this, as i have been praying for Gods will, and i know that this just wasnt meant to be. i feel His peac w/in me and its vrey comforting. Now if i could only get past being a scaredy cat :0  grrr....  thanks again. gonna go wait for the nurse to call again. shes gonna call after the dr looks at it. i already know the outcome, but shes still gonna call.  have a good day ladies!!

I agree with carp, you need to do what is most comfortable for you.  And honestly, don't worry about the hemoragging, its not all sudden like that.  If it even happened, you have lots of time to get medical attention.  Take good care of yourself and please keep in touch.

Im sorry to hear of  your loss.  If you are more comfortable passing it naturally...I say do it.  Ive had 2 m/c and I passed one naturally and the other d&c.  I hate to say it but even w/insurance I was out $900 on the d&c.  So passing it naturally had a cost savings to it.  :-( However you are so blessed to have 6 kids....amazing.  I am 16wks w/my first time being this far along.  I pray if you want more children that they are healthy and strong.  Take care....
