Thanks for all the well wishes, but mine didn't end good. I went in for a sonogram yesterday and they again found no heartbeat and the fetal pole had stayed the same size for 3 weeks in a row. My hcg levels were decreasing and I ended up having a d&c at 7:00pm after being at the hospital since 9:00am yesterday. What a horrible long day. I'm so glad that I am home and I'm just trying to start the healing process. I feel so empty and at the same time so relieved that I don't have to worry about what is going to happen. I know that it happened for a reason and that is what I'm trying to focus on.
Good luck to everyone! And Thanks!!
I, too had the same exact experience. I had three different doctors come in to look at my u/s and they saw no baby. I freaked out! I had to impatiently wait for the follow-up u/s and when I did, all was well. I ended up with FOUR different due dates. Oof.
I'm hoping they have rescheduled you for a follow-up u/s within the next two weeks.
Please keep us updated!
The heart starts beating between 5 1/2 and 6 1/2 weeks. It is very possible it was just too early. Measuring a week behind can be of minor concern, but is it possible your dates are off? Or you ovulated late?
I know this is a stressful time and I am so sorry you are going through it. Your next ultrasound should give you a definate answer. I wish you well.
I had an u/s also at 6 weeks just a sac was showing up. Went back a week later and there was a beautiful heart beat. We were really scared because I was spotting. I am now 17 weeks. Wishing you a very sticky bean and hope you hear that beautiful music of a heartbeat when you go back to the dr.
I know exactly how you feel, I had the same thing happen to me with my daughter, except they made me wait 2 weeks for a repeat sonogram, I wenyt for one at 6 weeks they didnt even see fetal pole just a yolk sac I was devestated and expexted the worse went back for the repeat and there it was one of the most beautiful sights the heartbeat!!!!! 6 weeks for most ladies is early to see the heartbeat please try not to stress (yeh i know easy for me to say) Good luck
