Concern! Please help :(

Question

I am 6 weeks and 6 days pregnant as of today. I have had two consecutive miscarriages before this pregnancy so the doctor put me on progesterone and baby aspirin. I really want this baby, never wanted anything more than to be a mom. this pregnancy came as a shock but i couldn't have been happier. My blood work looked perfect. I had an ultrasound at 5 weeks 5 days and a heart beat was detected at 109 which the doctor wasnt concerned about. I just had another ultrasound at 6 weeks and 4 days but the heart beat had dropped to 80, the baby was measuring exactly where it should be though, growing properly. Both ultrasounds were transvaginal. Is there any hope? Success stories? Could the ultrasound have been wrong? Please help!

Hey ladies. I thank all of you for the support and comments. I had a ultrasound on Friday that confirmed no heart beat. Due to extreme pain and cramping I had a d&e Saturday morning. My doctor believes it's because I didn't start the progesterone before I got pregnant but this wasnt planned so I had no idea. Despite it being unplanned I was so happy and excited once again. My doctor wants to refer me to an infertility specialist but I really want to try to conceive again soon. This marks my third loss, any suggestions? Can I try again?

This is my ninth pregnancy. I have only had on successful child and he is 12 now. I am now 16 weeks and am on the baby asprin and had to do the progesterone pills for the first trimester. I am now on the daily shots of blood thinners in the belly but this has been my best pregnancy so far. Don't give up hope.

I'm honestly not certain about the H/B dropping, but I do know an inexperienced U/S tech can measure the H/B inaccurately and it can make it off but quite a bit. That may be the case? Even someone experienced that was rushing or being careless can measure inaccurately. I also had a cousin that had multiple miscarriages, like 5-6 and was put on baby aspirin for her pregnancy and had her first successful pregnancy because of it. I'm praying your little one sticks like glue and is growing good!!
