I Hope I Never Have To Do That Again

I was 13 weeks pregnant. I went in for my first OB appointment on Monday. The doctor couldn't pick up a heartbeat on the doppler, so she sent me in for an ultrasound. Turns out the baby never really formed. A blighted ovum, or early pregnancy failure, is what it's officially called. Miscarriage Tuesday night. Definitely on the top five worst events of my life. I won't go into the the details, but click here if you want more info on a blighted ovum.
