    Oh Nae I am praying for you that everything is ok and your little baby is there happy and healthy on your next ultrasound. Your hcg levels do seem to be very positive for such an early stage, hopefully it was just to early for the ultrasound.

    My thoughts are with you

    Thanks ladies,

    still only had mild cramping no more discolouration in the discharge and no blood yet but talk about being on tender hooks. Everytime I go to the toilet DH says" has it started yet?
    "
    You know if I had have seen a foetal pole and no HB at such an early stage it wouldn't worry me so much as seeing NO foetal pole and just an empty sac. I am still having strong MS symptoms which is good but Tues is my due date for AF (at a 28 day count) or the following Tues 4th counting at 31 days.
    Poor DH has been beside himself, I have been laying down most of the day and we're just waiting with no idea what the outcome is going to be.

    Thanks again for all your support

    I bled with Rommy for a week when I was around 5-6 weeks. I stayed in bed for nearly a whole week! He is now 4.5 yrs and playing with his Lego in his play room. Bed or the couch really is the only place for you. Lots of choc, (unless your MS wont let you!) and trashy magazines or soppy movies.

    I am really sorry you are going through such a horrid, anxious time. Wishing you an extra sticky bub .

    I just want to give u hugs and some sticky vibes, my little man who has just turned one, was told that he was not viable, i was told that i had a sac which messured 5w 3d and according to my lmp i should have been 6w 1d, there was no embro nor heart beat and i was to return in 2 weeks, his heart beat 2 weeks later was only 85, and remained this way for weeks, again i was told he was not viable and to expect a m/c, i bleed for 12 weeks and around 15 weeks his heart beat jumped to 177, and he is now a happy smiley baby.

    So just keep thinking positive, dont give up just yet, they dont know why he was slow to get started and he was born 2 weeks early. So ur little bean coule just be taking its time getting cosy for a nice 9 month ride.

    Good luck hun, i wish u all the best.

    I had an internal US at 5wks 4 dys when I was pg with Sam and we still didn't see much at all, I only had the US because I had brown discharge and was worried about m/c. Ob measured the sac and it measured well, I he;d my breath and went back 2 weeks later & saw hb. Good luck, 5wks is very very early. I hope you have some positive news

    I just wanted to send you some extra sticky vibes. I hope everything goes smoothly for you and DH. I second what a lot of others have said. Put your feet up as much as you can and just relax as much as you can right now.

    You poor thing... I know how horrible & worrying this is. I began to bleed (sometimes red, sometimes brown, sometimes spotting, sometimes gushing) at just over 5 weeks. i had an ultrasound done, & all that was seen was the sac - the drs said it was too early to see anything else.
    The funny thing was, although some drs at the maternity ward were pessimistic (due to the bleeding), the head dr came to see me & said she had a "good feeling" about my baby - & that she thought everything was going to be alright. She said she just "felt" that everything was going to be fine.
    It was wonderful to hear this. And you know what? She was right. I'm still bleeding (at 15 weeks now), but my baby is doing wonderfully. I've had about 11 or 12 U/Ss by now, & have been able to see my baby grow from week to week. All you could see at first was a sac, then a couple of weeks later, a heartbeat, then a tiny baby, & now a bouncy, wriggly babe! Drs keep telling me that they are VERY optimistic about my baby - & now I feel optimistic too.
    Even though I am still bleeding, apparently there are many non-worrying reasons why a pregnant woman may bleed. Sure, it is not ideal, but it is not necessarily anything to be concerned about.
    I cannot understand why they think you will miscarry over the next week or so. I mean - you are still so early... (although, of course, I am not a dr - just going off my own experience & what I've been told).
    I really wish you & your baby the very best of luck & wishes.

    EDIT: Even at 5 - 6 weeks they couldn't see much more than a sac with me - even with an internal U/S

    I had a scan at about 5wks and only saw a sac. I really hope and pray this bubba sticks for you. Stick for mummy little one. I hope your next ultrasound goes well.

    Nae, just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you and really hope this is a sticky little bugger! I'm sure I've read of other girls on BB who have gone through a similar situation to what you've described and all turned out well / is going along well.

    Hang in there and know that so many of us are thinking of you

    Thanks everyone for your kind words and support

    So far not much is happening, we had our GP appointment yesterday and I am completely overwhelmed with information - which is a good thing I s'pose.

    We spoke in great lengths about what will happen if Beanie Baby isn't sticky and what the further testing will involve, basically first step will be bloods to test for lupus (sp?) they may also do one, which I can't remember the name but basically where they stick a camera inside you and look around the uterus, sounds like fun as you go under general anesthetic (sp?)
    I said to the GP that I kind of hoped that they reveal nothing is wrong but I know that the things they test for are treatable - which is reassuring in itself.

    Where we are at ATM is just waiting basically. I will go back to Pathology on Thurs when the Nurse I see is on (she is the only one I see) to get my HCG count done again, then providing all is ok with that then I will be off Friday week (3rd April) for another US.

    GP did say there is a strong possibility that we may still see nothing and that the sac could grow without anything and that the pregnancy then would be considered not viable and written off as blighted ovum (sp?) which I need to research to understand properly.

    So the joys of the waiting game are still being played, I guess the good thing is that DR said to get plenty of rest - at least I am becoming well rested and going through all the DVD in my library

    Thanks again everyone, my hope increases everyday that there is no blood but am also very aware that we are not out of the woods yet.
