8 weeks pregnant and not developing, no heartbeat and Levels not doubleing

by me32williams, Oct 09, 2009 12:52PM
My LMP was august 9th so I am right at 8weeks . This week I went to the Dr and they told me that my Baby was not Developing. I have had 3 u/s in 3 weeks The first they saw the sac The next one they seen the fetal pole, but no heart beat. and the one i had on10/06 still no heartbeat. They have took my bhcg levels every time I had an ultrasound exept the last one and they are going up but not doubleing. They said one tuesday that i could either wait for a miscarrage (miscarriage) to happen or have a D&C done. I went to day for a 2nd opion. They are supose to get my records from my other dr and took more blood and I am supose to see them on next Tuesday. about a week after I found out I was pregnent I started bleeding but not enough to even fill a pad. I have had a lot of menstral like cramps. I just want to know if I should go ahead with the D&C or Wait and see if any more changes occur a few more weeks after the results of the new Dr findings.

Since you have already gone to another doctor for a second opinion, why don't you follow his/her advice and wait for the results of the newest blood test?

It honestly does not sound really hopeful, but do what you have to do to feel at peace with your decision.  When you know in your heart that the baby is gone, then you will be ready to proceed.  

I'm sorry this is happening.
