Feeling Sad- first ultrasound today

I just got back from my first ultrasound and I'm feeling pretty sad.  I am suppose to be 9 weeks 3 days today but the baby was only measuring 6 weeks 1 day.  There was a yolk sac and a fetal pole but no heartbeat.  I know when I ovulated because I charted so I know I just didn't ovulate late.  The doctor said it could possibly be a miscarriage or the baby was just behind.  I haven't had any spotting or bleeding yet.  I have to go back in next Friday for another ultrasound to see if there has been any growth.  I'm really worried and sad because it took us so long to finally get pregnant that I would hate for this to be bad news.  Has this happened to anybody else and what was the outcome if it did?  Was the baby ok or did you have a miscarriage?

  • I hate that you have to go through this.  Did they offer to do bloodwork today and then again on Monday to see if your numbers are going up?

    No they didn't and I didn't even think to ask about this.  She just said to come back in a week to see if there has been any growth.  When they ran my betas on Monday my numbers came back at 39,200.  Maybe I will call Monday and see if I can do this.  Thank You

  • Yes take the bloodwork suggestion, a week is an awefully long time to wait. All the best to you and baby...keep thinking positive and grow baby grow!
  • Praying for you!

    I'm measuring about a week and a half behind, but they said baby is perfectly fine. I hope it's the same for you!

  • I had a really quick ultrasound yesterday at my first apt. just to make sure everything was good and the doctor took a rough measurement of the length and he said I was measuring at 7 weeks 1 day, and today I am supposed to be 9 weeks....although we got to see a heartbeat, and he scheduled us for a more detailed dating ultrasound in two weeks ...I hope you get some answers! I know I have seen a few other women on here who were measuring behind and everything was fine so I hope things work out the same for you!!

  • At my first dr appointment I thought I was almost 10 weeks. she did an ultrasound and I was only measuring 6 weeks 4 days. There was a heartbeat though. Don't lose hope! You're baby is probably just a little behind like mine!
