Hi everyone, I have recently had a miscarriage. I found out I was pregnant while I was taking my prescription for ivermectin. Went to the doctor for my ten week ultrasound and found out it was twins with no heartbeat. Babies stopped growing at 6 weeks. I was so heartbroken and still am but I'm being strong because it won't help me to get down and out. I am blessed to have three healthy kids and we will try again. I've never miscarried before and I'm just wondering if it could have been from the Ivermectin. What do you think?
Edit: I've prayed for twins for so long.
My OB told me after my miscarriage that one in five babies miscarry especially before 12 weeks. Don’t beat yourself up worrying if it’s something you did! If it’s your first miscarriage after multiple live births consider yourself lucky like I did. I had a friend who would miscarry 2-3 times before having a successful birth. She went on to have 5 kids…maybe more because she moved. I was fortunate to have 5 live births before a miscarriage but I know many many women who all did everything right and still miscarry. That being said being sad is absolutely ok too. I felt horrible feeling bad because I had 5 children living and felt selfish mourning the loss but they are babies and it’s ok to feel sad.
Thank you ❤️
