Hi, I have had a real upside down weekend and totally confused- I am about 5 weeks pg. Last week I had some bleeding and cramping (not real bleeding but more when wiping), went to get more BT's and HcG levels were 800? Had vag U/S couldnt see much. Was told to wait over weekend. Came back today and HcG levels only reached 1100 (something like that) also had more scans and the sac was clear on the scan but no embryo - bleeding and cramps are gone. Dr's said to wait another week to see if preganancy is viable or not. I hate this waiting - just want to know. Has Anyone else had this? A week (actaully 8 days) seems a long time to wait - but Dr's have said let nature do it's thing. This is my first pg and I am trying to be logical and realistic, but am keeping hope that things may change for the better........
when i went for a scan at 5 weeks they couldnt see anything but the sac. i was terrified something was wrong but it was just too early to see anything. most of the websites i looked at said that you wouldnt expect to see an embryo until the end of week 5, sometimes even later. i hope this is just the case for you and it was too early to see anything. i actually posted a thread on this website after my scan asking if anyone else had experienced the same thing and lots of girls posted and said the same thing had happened to them at early scans and they all went on to have healthy pregnancies.
Thanks Beccas, I have read so much...I am still keeping my fingers crossed. I suppose I am more concerned about my HcG Levels not coming up like they should. I know this is only my 1st pg, but would love things to turn out....my husband is really hurting maybe more than me, he had bit of a hard time at first when we fell pg, but then got really excited and 'clucky'. I feel for him more as I have come to accept that whatever happens is for the best....but here's hoping..... it is hard just wating to see what happens....at least I am not working at the moment and can take the rest whilst I can.
I had exactly the same thing and my hcg levels were going up but not doubling..was told to prepare for a d and c but then at the next scan 7 weeks and 5 days there was a beautiful little heart beat!
Let us know how you go Mrsaym. Going by the posts here, you should be fine. This is one of the reasons my ob gave for not doing scans any earlier than week 10 as they can usually be more worrying than reassuring at that early stage.
I wish I didnt know until I was due for my 10 week scans......but tomorrow is the D day.......I should know by lunchtime.....I have a few symptons - if it isnt in my head that is...still staying positive......will keep you all posted....
went for more bt today....my levels have risen only to 3000, not too good as they were 1024 last week....should have been well up by now....my sac is still empty.....I think I should be just on 8 weeks.....
My sac measured 8mm today - cant remember what it was last week.......next week will be more telling..
doc has suggested to wait another week or so to see what happens as maybe my dates are well out maybe only just 4 weeks, but I don't think so......I had a very light period on 30th April - only lasted one day, then I did a HPT on the Wednesday which showed a very faint line ( I did this test times for a week - thats when I knew I was pg).
Maybe I have got my dates wrong...but it doesnt seem to add up as my LMP b4 that was 3rd April which was normal.
Anyway will wait again to see what happens, I dont want to prematurely do anything yet....
I hope you are well, I just read your posts and wanted you to know that I will be thinking of you and keep my fingers crossed that everything is ok. When everything went bad for me I kind of knew deep down (if that makes sense) that something was wrong, so I think it's a good sign that you're feeling positively and still 'feel pregnant'. Stay strong xox
Hiya....it's official I have a Blighted Ovum......I feel kinda relieved that I know what has happened.....I am booked in for a D&C next week. I didnt want to wait for AF just want it all over and done with so we can plan our next pg....
I am predicting I will be pg again by Sept.....
Thanks all you wonderful ladies for your best wishes. I will be reading and keeping in touch in various forums and definetly will let you know when we are pg again...
Sending everyone my thoughts for all your losses and pg's.
Very confused
