i'm devastated.

I'm posting this under an alias.

Three days ago we were told we were 6 weeks pregnant. So off we went to the gynecologist. We tell him she has been spotting, he says the scan shows the...baby? cells? I dont know, is under developed, no heartbeat yet but to go back in 12 days and he will be able to tell us more. He says by now there should be a heartbeat, but it can develop at some point in the next 12 days.

The spotting stops for a little while and the Mrs has been getting all the right signs, cravings, morning sickness etc..., but then it returns. We've just come back from a different gynecologist who said that there is a 90% chance we'll miscarry, and even if we dont there is a 9.99% chance the child would be disabled and only a 0.01% chance of it being healthy.


I'm trying to not get upset infront of my Mrs, but she has caught me having a cry when I thought I would be alone for a few mins. I dont know why I feel I have to tell a bunch of strangers on the internet, but I need get it off my chest.

Hello.

Firstly I would like to thank everyone for their kind words. We did miscarry, it was a few days after my original post, but, to be honest, I was scared to look back into this thread. Silly I know, especially after having seen everyone's supportive comments.

SWMBO is doing well, obviously we are a bit upset, but we are doing alot better.

Thank you

ET.
