XP: Thought for sure I was mc, but we have a heartbeat!

LivingItUpInUP · April 2012

I can't believe it! I had moderate bleeding on Friday, and found my hcg had only gone up to 58,684 from 24,141 a week ago, and my breast soreness has decreased. I thought for sure it was going to be another horrible ultrasound appointment, but baby has a strong heartbeat of 164 and is measuring 7 weeks 4 days! I had it in my head that there was a 90% chance I was going to miscarry and was preparing to spend my afternoon crying and eating ice cream. I have a subchorionic hematoma, which is the reason for the bleeding and spotting, but everything else looks good. I'm still very nervous for the rest of the pregnancy, and especially the first trimester, but this is a great sign!
