....please help I'm so confused.
I went for a reassurance scan on Wednesday where I thought I was either 6+5 or exactly 7 weeks pregnant (based on conception date as I was charting my temps) I had been feeling very down with no pregnancy symptoms at all and had a strange suspicion that something was wrong but no bleeding or strange pains.
The sonographer did a abdominal and vaginal ultrasound and the gestational sac seemed empty, saying that, he didn't to me take much time to look. He said the sac was measuring 6 weeks and it was common not to see anything at 6 weeks. I myself knowing I must be nearer 7 weeks immediately thought the worst. We were ussered into another room and I was very tearful 10 minutes later a midwife arrived and said we're sorry that your baby hasn't progressed and that I'd had a missed miscarriage. They said they needed to do my bloodwork to rule out an ectopic pregnancy.
I got my blood results later that day which were 13,000hcg, the consultant said my bloods were good and I was defo pregnant, that the sonographer hadn't attached very good scan pics so it is hard to diagnose. She mentioned the ectopic worry and possibility of blighted ovum. She said they really needed to see more bloods to make any conclusions...i'm going this afternoon for more bloods.
I'm so confused, is there anyone there who can offer their experiences? Good or bad. i'm preparing myself for the worst but can't help want to believe in that glimmer of hope. My concern is that becuase I know my ovulation date etc ....I am measuring behind.
This limbo is just awful. Xxxx
