Not the start I wanted...

Had a quick scan yesterday at my obs office, I was 6 w 2d. I had a fairly empty bladder (stupid me) so the image was quite grainy. Dr found a sac (only barely visible) which was empty. No heartbeat.....again.................:crying:

I know there is hope because Im still so early but why oh why do I have to be on this rollercoaster again. I am on clexane injections and asprin this time to try and save this bean but there are no guarantees.

I go for a proper u/s in two weeks at the place where they have the sophisticated machines and can do an internal scan if necessary, so perhaps they will pick up the h/b then? How the hell am I supposed to be positive given my history?

HUGE HUGS babes..

I don't know how you can be positive, but you just have to.. A friend of mine had 7 m/c before going on to have a healthy pregnancy once she started clexane ...

:hug:

I hope the next 2 weeks go quickly. Can't you have another one sooner???

:hug: I'm surprised they let you have the ultrasound done. At my clinic they won't do it if the bladder isnt full enough. I have everything crossed that everything turns out alright and the next ultrasound they find something :hug:

Oh Im sorry to read this. I know that awful feeling. Can you try to get into another US place before 2 weeks, the wait will be so hard for you ?

Oh :hug: DG. What a stressful and anxious time this is for you.
I hope the next fortnight passes quickly- and that you see a beautiful, flickering heartbeat.

So sorry DG :(. I know it is a small comfort, but they don't usually do external ultrasounds at 6w for this exact reason. Often the HB is not visible until 9w external (6w internal). I hope all is well with your little bean.

How stressful for you, hugs i hope you get good news in 2 weeks. 6 weeks is very early and often no HB is seen then, with DS1 scan at 7 weeks 5 days HB was slow and OB said either just started beating or was going to be another MC (internal scan), he is now 3 years old, 2 weeks later his HB was normal rate and speed.

Fingers crossed for you.

Hang in there, DG. Got my fingers crossed for you :hug:

Hugs DG, hope the next two weeks fly. Will be praying for a healthy bouncing bean for you.

:hug:

Massive hugs. :hug:
I'm crossing everything for you.

xox

Oh DG :(
Big big :hug:
You'll be in thoughts and prayers. I know the next 2 weeks will feel like an eternity.

DG, thinking of you & crossing everything! I hope the next two weeks fly by for you & there is good news at your scan xo

Hold hope sweetness! I went to see my Ob at 6w4d's with this bub and when he looked externally he could only see a dark empty-looking sac. He then did an internal scan and there was my tiny bub with it's little heart flickering away perfectly. So the external scan at that stage really can be extremely misleading and disheartening.

Oh hun have everything doubly crossed for you oxoxoxo

:comfort: oh DG I dont even know what to say. But will send you truck loads of positive vibes and cross everything. Hun, you have been through so much. It just isnt fair :hug:

Sending you loves and prayers that you have a sticky little bean. I understand about it being really hard to remain positive and upbeat, so don't focus on that - just feel how you feel

OMG DG i didn't even know you are pregnant! Massive :hug: Darlin- this is so so unfair :( I really hope little bubba is ok- i am praying so hard babe :hug:
Lots of love to you sweetheart xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I know how you feel and all I can say is have hope! The good thing is that you know you can have a baby as you have to beautiful boys (according to your sig). I am really holding out for you that this one sticks!!! :)

Oh DG. fingers crossed and try not to lose hope. As others have said 6 weeks is very early, most often too early to see much at all, much less pick up a heartbeat. That as well as the fact that the machine an OB uses in their office is pretty rudimentary and cannot pick up the level of detail unlike a high tech machine at an ultrasound clinic.

Huge :hug: DG, I will be praying your little bean hangs on xx

Oh DG, i know with DD3 they needed to do a scan at 6weeks to make sure it wasnt another ectopic, i remember before the scan the DR saying "now you know we probably wont see a HB" i was all "thats ok, ill just be happy to see that its in the right spot"

PIGS BOTTOM i was!

As i had seen DD2 HB at 5weeks something on U/S i was sure that there must be something wrong if they hadnt been able to see anything this time!

Thank goodness i was wrong, but the wait til that 8 weeks scan, then 12....then 18....Um actually pregnancy after loss just sucks balls....

Its stressful its horrible, but we all know in the end its worth it!

Huge hugs and much strength sent your way as you endurer an long (but healthy) pregnancy.

I for one cant wait to read your BA in 7.5months time :)

Thanks everyone, your lovely words mean so much to me.

I spoke to my Obs late this afternoon about being worried and he said I could have the scan next week instead, so that I will re-book first thing in the morning. Fingers crossed this bub holds on and shows itself next week.

Glad to hear you're having the scan next week and not having to wait a fortnight. Hang in there. I have everything crossed for you that this bub is the one that's meant to be. This is all so much more stressful than it should be :comfort:

Oh DG, I'm so sorry you are going through this difficult time. I glad you are able to have your scan next week - although I know that next week will still seemway too far away. Praying that this little one will be your precious 'earth baby'.:hug:

Sounds like a nice OB!

So glad you're getting the scan earlier. Big hugs and I'm sure you'll see a nice little heartbeat.
