Iffy u/s

mork · April 2013

Our first u/s wasn't great. We only saw a sac and yolk sac measuring 4w5d, and no fetal pole. That would be fine, if I were only about 5w, but I got my BFP almost three weeks ago. I really should be at least 6w. There's a sliver of hope, based on a lot of "ifs," which are detailed below for the curious, but I'm already giving up emotionally. We go back in two weeks, at which point there will either be a heartbeat, or it will be over.

If 1: I ovulated later than FF thinks, which is already two days later than I thought. I do have to mention that my OPKs at 1 and 2DPO were borderline, so much so that I played with them on FF for days; I only left them on negative because my huge spike at CD15/16 led me to believe I had already ovulated.
ETA: This "if" is going down the drain. DH's sperm would've had to hold strong for five days if Oed on CD21.

If 2: I got a crazy early BFP at 5DPO. Again possible although unusual, especially since my beta was only 10 that day.

If 3: Today's sac measurements were a tiny bit off, and I'm somewhere just over 5w. This is the easiest "if" for me to believe, since measurements are so small at this point, and a tiny difference is a big gestational difference.

You can see my chart by clicking on my blue suede shoes.

ETA: I know I didn't write this well, but these are if/ands; they ALL have to be true for this baby to have a chance.

Bah humbug.

Oh hun, I hope everything is ok! Just remember, implanationation happens at different times for different people and they are so little now, they grow at different rates. It's not over until it's over, stay hopeful!

Hold on to hope. When I was 7 weeks they told me they couldnt detect a heartbeat and that LO was measuring 6weeks and said to prepare for a miscarriage. Two weeks later at my follow up,baby measured right on at 9 weeks with a strong heartbeat. Sometimes i

*HUGS* I'm so sorry your u/s wasn't as encouraging as you would have hoped

like Boots said, there are so many variables right now, there's still hope. FX for you that everything is ok.

(((Hugs))) I hope your next U/S will be better. I am hoping any one of those "ifs" is the answer.

DCWJes · April 2013

Hugs love! I am hoping they just couldn't get an accurate measurement on your little one. Hang in there!

(Hugs) sending you good juju for an awesome second u/s Mork.

SciChick · April 2013

At my 7 week u/s we couldn't find the baby for a very, very long time. She was snuggled up against the wall of the uterus and if I hadn't been with the nurse who had been with me through a loss I don't know that we would have looked for the baby as long a

jenohouston · April 2013

I'm praying and hoping that all goes at your next U/S. big hugs

KDS1987 · April 2013

My doctor didn't measure before we saw a heartbeat because she said they are too small to be very accurate and can cause unnecessary stress. Just a fun fact, do with it what you want. Hugs and T&Ps!

FX for you Mork!

bethLenell · April 2013

I'm sorry you didn't get better results today! Hold on to those if's and the hope that comes with them.

You'll be in my thoughts and prayers!

Hugs! Fingers and toes crossed for your next ultrasound.

I'm sorry you are in this limbo for two weeks. Do you know if your uterus tilts to the back at all? That can mess up measurements.

Thank you ladies! I love this place and your support.

bananers · April 2013

Ugh, so sorry you have to be in limbo for 2 whole weeks. That just plain sucks. I still am holding out hope for you. I hope you can make these two weeks fly by somehow. ((hugs))

I'm crossing my fingers that everything is just fine

Try not to work yourself sick. Easier said than done, I know.

Sending you tons of hugs and hoping that the measurement was just off. Sorry that you are going through that.

KikiCohen · April 2013

Sorry you're stuck with inconclusive results

I think situation #3 sounds completely plausible. T&Ps that your next u/s shows a healthy little peanut!

lisab613 · April 2013

FX for you!

hungryhippo · April 2013

Those variable provide many reasons to be hopeful. I'm so sorry you didn't get clearly good news, but I hope you get nothing but great news at your next ultrasound. Huge (((HUGS))).

MORK!! I heard you were pregnant again. I'm so sad you're in limbo right now. I haven't been on the bump in ages, but I wanted to say I love you. And I need to stalk you... Do you ever po
