9 week ultrasound - not good news -- UPDATE

becca0302 · February 2015

Just had my first ultrasound ever - first pregnancy, first appointment. Should be 9 weeks, 1 day or more - cycles very steady, and I know when I ovulate b/c mittelschmrez pain which stops when the egg leaves the ovary. Tested positive December 22, 7 days before missed period - no bleeding, minor cramping. Baby was there, but measured only 6 weeks, sac was large, no heartbeat. I'm devastated...this is my worst fear. I had some symptoms, but not many (no m/s, for example)

OB says to come back in for another u/s in a week, then we'll see. Has anyone ever had that week later u/s work out at 10 weeks?

UPDATE 1 -

Feeling very anxious as my follow up appt is this afternoon. I started spotting (TMI) brown on saturday, and it has been intermittent since then. No cramping. I broke down in church on Sunday, just so upset - should have known not to go on "Healing Sunday." The hymn "Healer of my Every Ill" has never hit me so hard. Thoughts and prayers appreciated! Will let you know how it goes later today...

Aw I'm sorry girl. For what it's worth, I've never had much symptoms or morning sickness in my healthy pregnancies so that's not necessarily an indication that something is amiss. Hang in there!

I don't have any advice but I just wanted to tell you I'm thinking of you. I'm sorry you have to go through this.

Don't have any advice really but didn't want to do a read&run. I'm so sorry you have to go through this.. I absolutely understand your fear - I am still a couple of weeks away from my first U/S and I can't help but find it scary. Keep taking care!

I don't have any words of wisdom either but keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Hope to hear some good news from you soon.

I'm sorry youre going through this. Hang in there and stay positive. From being on this forum, I have actually seen a few ladies go throught the same situation you are going through. So hang in there, rest, try to stay positive and God willing when you go back you will get good news. You are in my thoughts and prayers

You are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you get good news soon. I know this is a hard time. Please take care of yourself.

I don't have much advice but if the doctors knew anything for sure they would tell you. All they want is you to come back in a week for now, so take it week by week. You also never know when egg meets sperm in there. I thought I was 9 weeks 1 day at us last week. Turned out 8 weeks.

I'm sorry you're going through this. I haven't been in your exact shoes before, but I did have to wait after getting bad news once and the wait was awful. *hugs*

Sorry to hear the US didn't go as you hoped. Sending positive vibes your way & FX your next visit is a happy one!

When i had my first i got my first US at 10 weeks and my Dr said sometimes you cant hear it until 11 weeks so not to be alarmed if i didnt hear it. Hope everything turns out ok

MrsPinkPeony · February 2015

So so sorry you are going through this. T&P's to you.

excited2bmommy09 · February 2015

So sorry you are going through this and have to wait to find out what's going on. Hope good news is right around the corner for you!

I just had the exact same experience this afternoon. I thought I was 9 weeks today (positive test on 12/31), but I'm measuring at 6 weeks, and no heartbeat. Trying not to get terribly upset, but it's nearly impossible. We'll see what happens next week. Good luck to you, and I hope you can find some peace over the course of the next week. I'm going to do my best to do the same.

So sorry! Hope you get good news at your follow-up.
