Embryo behind in dates in a 7 week scan

Thanks again ladies for your lovely support :grouphug:

The FS was optimistic today, giving me examples where the embryo did in fact implant late and women have gone to have a healthy pg, but he also gave me the other case scenario which of course was expected. He read the report to me and I was shocked to hear that a heart rate was noted on there at 1342bpm, b/c this wasn't mentioned to me at the scan b/c I think I was too shocked with the 'a week behind in dates' comment that I didn't even ask. I could see a flutter but she did that thing where it's supposed to appear at the bottom of the screen with sound and there was no sound! So the FS said that's really positive as anything over 100 bpm is good. So he took a BT today to see what the levels are doing and I will have another BT on Monday, and he said that should indicated which way things are heading. I have absolutely everything crossed for a good outcome, it's so hard just hanging there in limbo! He said not to stress too much, hellooooooooooo!!! too late mate :wall:

BG, your story is very encouraging, thanks for sharing hun. I am hoping to have a good ending like you and your DD :crossfingers:

Will keep you update ladies, I'm now crapping my pants about the result of the BT tomorrow :hide:

Miss B, That sounds fantastic. A hb of 134bpm is perfect at 6/7 weeks and its so easy to make a mistake with the 'age' of the embryo because they are soooo tiny at this stage. In fact you may not be behind as much as you were initially told.

Good luck for the BT, but Im sure everything will be ok.

Aww thanks Diamond Girl, I love your positivity and really appreciate it. I'm glad you're on the ball b/c according to me the heart beat was 1342 bpm! I seriously have lost the plot :o The HB should have read 132 bpm....

1342bpm would be worrying!

I think it sounds encouraging MissB. Try not to let it worry you too much.

Take care x

Thank so much n2l, yes 1342 bpm would be a tad too high ;)

Phew about the typo!

FX your bub was just a late implanter.

FWIW, this bub's hb was only 120 bpm at 6w, so I think your hb sounds quite healthy.

DD's HB was only at 97 at first scan too - so it's sounding a lot more positive than her start. and she is perfect now (well, as perfect as the average 2 year old can be when they've been out with Granma and had friends feed them chocolate and juice all day... sigh...)

mine we both behind, aroud 3-4 days first time and 6 days second time.

Fingers crossed tightly for you Miss.B and I hope all goes well with the BT results and your little bubba progresses nicely and is in your arms happily in a few months time xoxox :)

Fingers (and everything else) crossed honey!!!

I've got a good feeling about this wee bubba :heartbeat:

I have everything crossed for you. I know it's stressful. Hopefully the blood test results will be reassuring.

I'm sitting here reading and re reading all of your replies with tears in my eyes, I am so amazed and thankful for your reassurance and your support ladies. Your beautiful replies mean so much to me so thank you from the bottom of my heart :grouphug:

I've had another night with broken up sleep, feeling so nervous today. I'm thinking I'll call mid morning for the BT result, I just want to know either way what is happening. It's so bloody hard not knowing what's going on :(

Keeping everything crossed for you :heartbeat:

Huge great big squishy hugs hun :hug: Thinking of you and Sweet Pea x

Miss B - just letting you know I'm waiting here when you've got something to share, whatever it may be.

Praying for good news.

:hug:

Hope all is well MissB.
Praying no news is good news x
