6 wk+2 days Ultrasound - Gestational Sac but no Yolk Sac/Fetal Pole Visible

I'm also in limbo land which isn't nice...

Had a big bleed and tissue lost a few weeks back, and got a scan done which put me around 5 weeks it was only 7.5mm gestational sac with yolk sac inside, but no feral pole, so have to go back at on the 11th to check for growth/heartbeat...

Last time we went for a scan I should of been 12 weeks and only got to see a empty sac :cry:

Goodluck for us both x
Yes, limbo is no fun. Good luck to you too!
 
I am in the same exact boat as you. I had my first scan last Thursday and I was 6 weeks 2 days and all the doc could find was a yolk sac and a fetal pole. There was no heartbeat. The doc kept telling me that because I was right on the cusp that I shouldn't worry (yeah right!) and to come back in a week and we should see the heartbeat. I go back on Friday to find out. He also reassured me that he had seen thousands of these cases and he is confident that everything is okay. He told me that 2/3 of women see the heartbeat at 6 weeks, so we are just in that 1/3 that were unlucky. He also told me that he just had a girl in there who went thru the same thing...they didn't see the heartbeat the week before but she came in that day and they could see it. So - although my hope is low, it is not lost. I pray that we both get to see our babies hearts beating this week.
I hope all of us who are in limbo or are trying get good news soon. Fingers crossed!
 
I had an early bleed and scan at 7+5 with nothing but an empty sac seen. 5 days later I was rescanned and they found a perfect 8+3 fetus and hb and I'm now 31 weeks preggo so there s hope for you all :hugs:
Thanks for sharing your happy ending! Gives me hope.
 
I had my follow up u/s yesterday. What a difference a week can make! Last week we only saw an empty gestational sac. Yesterday we saw the yolk sac AND heartbeat!!! It was amazing and wonderful. I feel like I'm in a dream because my father died in his sleep the day before (on July 4th) after battling an illness. I discovered he had died; checked his heartbeat and there was none. The next day I saw a new one. Mind boggling isn't it? I feel like I have experienced a miracle; getting pregnant naturally at almost 45 while my dad was dying. It makes one think that there is truly a bigger force at work.

Good luck to you all on your own journeys.
 
Oh no - I am so sorry to hear about your dad. But I am happy that you got to hear your baby's heartbeat! Life truly is a miracle!

I got good news this morning too...7w/3d - 127 BPM. A week really does make all the difference. I hope our happy stories give many others hope because that was the longest, scariest week of my life!

Babee_Bugs: Thank you for your words of sympathy for the loss of my dad and words of happiness for my little one. Sending you positive vibes!! Good luck with your scan and keep us posted.
 
Bad news. Just got back from the doctor and my baby's heart has stopped beating. I have a D&C scheduled for Wednesday. :(
 
My scan wasn't good news :cry:

Scan showed incomplete miscarriage, there was still something lying low, there couldn't tell what it was on the screen though...
 
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you are doing ok. I know it is devastating. I had bad news yesterday too. See my post.
 
Yes I'm doing as well as can be expected to be honest... It's been a very gruelling process... That finally has now come to an end, still sad nonetheless but hopeful that given my body some time to heal physically that it may happen again one day.

I'm so sorry you have had some bad news :(, I can't see any new posts? So not quite sure what has happened... But just wanted to send my :hugs:
 
This happened to me in may..it was a mmc im afraid though, got to 21mms and nothing had grown at all, in the end i had medical management. I know how you feel so i really hope this isnt the case!
