A lot has happened in the past while… my experience with misoprostol for pregnancy loss

Hey friends,

Life has been fairly hectic lately. Since the last time I was on here, we found out we were expecting and then our baby went to be with the Lord. I share about what happened on you tube..

But I will also share what happened here.

June 15, 2021

I found out we were pregnant. Brent and I were both extremely excited! It was going to be fun to watch Connor become an older brother.

If you know you know… I suspected a miscarriage. But I was still nauseas.. so I saw that as a good sign

July 9, 2021, 6 weeks 6 days

Again.. first thing in the morning.. something happened that lead me to suspect miscarriage. But around noon I started feeling pregnant again.

Went to the ER for some answers. After a few different tests they concluded I was 7 weeks along… which I already knew. they did blood work and told me to get it done again in 48 hours.. then I would have answers.

Nauseas again today and it lasted all day. Saw it as a good sign!

Ultrasound and blood work this morning. They couldn’t tell me a whole lot about anything… All she told me was she could see the fetal pole but it might be too early to detect a heartbeat.

Extremely morning sick today. Was happy! It meant I was still pregnant!!!

Doctor called and said hcg levels were dropping. Got more bloodwork done.

July 16, 2021 7 weeks 7 days

Doctor called again and said hcg levels were still dropping. Baby had died. I had 3 options.

  1. wait it out, sometimes it can take a while
  2. D&C
  3. Misoprostol, medication to get things started…

July 17, 2021 8 weeks

Took misoprostol at 11am. Had a long hard painful day. by the evening I was starting to feel like myself again. Throughout the week I had difficult times… but by July 26 it had basically ended.

If you are out there and you are ever in this situation.. everyone’s experience with misoprostol is different. My experience was as good as to be expected… but the decision to do this was hard because I had heard horror stories from people who took this medication. I am thankful mine wasn’t horrible.
