I had a scan at 6 weeks and my gestational sac was measuring significantly smaller than my crown-rump length. From what I've been reading online, if the disparity between the two is less than 5 mm, it's an 80-94% chance of miscarriage. I am less than 5 mm and was told to come in later this week for another scan.
I am posting my measurements in hopes than somebody can help me better interpret them. My reproductive endocrinologist expressed minimal concern, which I can't really understand after the studies I have been reading. My husband is also a physician (different specialty, but access to all the medical journals) and he also sees a grim outlook based on the data.
This is my first pregnancy. We originally had twins, but already lost one. It has taken us over two years, a whole lot of drugs and three IUIs to get to this point. Is this the end for this baby?
Honesty is appreciated and thank you for reading.
Results:
Placenta Normal
Amniotic Sac Normal
Yolk Sac Size (mm) 4
Cardiac Activity Yes
Heart Rate (bpm) 101
