Parenting after a Loss

Follow up appt today update

At my first appt, LO was measuring 11 days behind. I have my second OB appt today. There is no u/s scheduled so I'm guessing it is just a quick hb check. If you have any spare Tamp;P's, I would really appreciate it. I am going alone and although I won't know if LO has caught up, it would really ease most of my fears to hear a strong HB before my CVS next week.nbsp;

Update: they couldn't find the HB on the Doppler so they brought in the hand held u/s. She said she could see the HB but I couldn't see it. LO was such a blur that I couldn't make anything out.

I should be thrilled that I am still pregnant and that LO has a HB. However, I still don't feel as if everything is fine.

What is wrong with me?

  • Glad to hear there still is a hb. Did they get a measurement? I know you had concerns with measuring behind and I'm hoping lo is still plugging along.

    No. I asked but she said the hand held does not have sound and can't take measurements. LO really didn't look much different than a blob and I know that by 10/12 weeks, there should be more definition to the head, arms, and legs.

    I will know more at my cvs on Tues since they will do an u/s during the procedure.

    I know what you mean by just knowing what you see isn't what should be up there.

    Hoping it was just a bad angle or something.  It's encouraging that there still is a hb, that's a good sign at 10+ weeks!  I'm so glad that your CVS is coming up soon.  You'll get some definitive answers from that for sure.  Best wishes on Tuesday!

  • You're worried and that's completely understandable.  I am so sorry that today's visit was not as reassuring as you'd hoped and that you find yourself in limbo till next week. I am sending you a ::big mobile hug:: and continued T&P that you get clearer direction and a peek at a growing LO at your cvs. Also if the handheld u/s was that poor quality, perhaps the resolution was crap as well such that the usual baby bits just could not be easily seen from your angle?

    I'm so happy that they found a HB and I given your history I completely understand why you're concerned.  I hope that you're worrying over nothing and that your upcoming appointment will help to alleviate your fears and concerns.  Sending you a boatload of good juju and ((HUGS)).

    all of this. There is nothing wrong with you. Hope you get a good clear picture of LO wiggling around on Tuesday.
