Vaginal ultrasound at 6 wks and no heart beat

[coritabee]

I am 35 years old and found out I am pregnant only recently. I thought I was 5 weeks pregnant but everyone keeps telling me I am 6. I found 4 massive red spots last Friday that set me off in a panic. I called the hospital and they set up a vaginal ultrasound for today. In the meantime I rested and only had brown blood and very faint when I wiped (sorry TMI)
Had the appointment today and there was no heart beat but we did see the sac but no sign of baby as still very small or so the nurse said. I am scheduled for another scan in 2 weeks' time so hopefully all will be well. I had a miscarriage in 2002 so don't really want to go through the same thing. Fingers crossed!

Hoping all goes well for you. I went through similar with my last pregnancy and after the wait and second scan I got the awful news. The waiting between the scans is the hardest part so I really feel for you x

so sorry to hear :(  it is hard especially when you live in a different country so all procedures are alien. Everything is already new and not knowing where to go and who to contact makes it worse. Haven't alerted my family yet as don't want to alarm them

I was going through the same situation as you. I went in at 5 weeks, there wasnt any heartbeat, just bleeding and the baby yolk sac doctor told me to return in two weeks to double check everything, I was scared and out of my mind, waiting. I had everyone praying, since this is my first child and I went through a lot trying to conceive. At week 7 and 1day, I heard my baby heartbeat 147 beats per minute, it was so insanely loud, like he or she was yelling Im here mum, Im ok, im here to stay, tears were just falling from my eyes. I will pray for you that everything will b ok, and that you will have a healthy baby. Have trust in God, and dont give up.

Your posts filled me with hope this morning but I just found a tiny brown jelly-like clot so not counting on any good news sadly :(

I'm so sorry.  Support each other.  It's not your fault. Something similar happened to us and best outcome was that I'm thankful to realize how strong my relationship is and how well we were able to support each other.
