Loss of Pregnancy Symptoms

Hi all.  

I should be 6 weeks 4 days today according my my LMP - but I ovulated on CD 17 so I'm more like just 6 weeks.

On Tuesday (11/24) I went for an ultrasound and was measuring right on time at 6 weeks (a little bigger than ontime).  They saw a 9mm sac and a yolk sac.  Things looked great.  I switched from progesterone pills to vaginal suppositories Tuesday night because the pills were causing dizziness.  Same dosage, just administered differently.  

So, my symptoms up until Wednesday were: very sore breasts, bad constipation, some nausea and being tired.  I woke up Wednesday and my breasts weren't as sore, no nausea and throughout the past few days I've become less and less constipated.  I started having cramps too.  Prior to this I had some very light spotting - but nothing to be concerned with.  I had it with my daughter and things were just fine.  Today I had some egg white discharge.

Yesterday I went to the RE again since I lost all the symptoms.  I got a horrible doctor who said the sac was not measuring the way it should be.  It was only 11.5mm and there was no heartbeat.  He also had a hard time finding it.  

I guess my question is does this sound like a miscarriage or one that is about to start?  I go back tomorrow to see my real doctor.  Any helpful advice would be great.

OMG!  We saw the heartbeat today.  I broke down.  My husband, the doctor and the nurse were all crying too.  I was in total shock...we are so blessed.  Measuring at 6 week 2 daysish.  Makes sense since we ovulated on CD 17.  Got progesterone tested and should know that and HCG later this afternoon and go back next Monday for a follow up ultrasound.

Thank you all so much for thoughts and prayers...you all mean so much to me!!

I think there is some sort of oath that they take at our weddings....that they promise to be evil and mean!  No, I don't think she did it maliciously - but she never thinks when she does things.  I don't want news that hasn't happened yet to be scattered amongst the family.  

Well - I think it's really over.  Went to bed with sore breasts last night (for the first time in several days) and this morning woke up with non-hurting non-full breasts.  At least up until yesterday they were full!  Ugh - I'm prepared, so I think.  I'll let you know what happens later this afternoon.

Thanks for you support.
