Hello Everyone. I'm 23 years old and pregnant for the first time, I was extremely excited until this past wednesday. I found out on the 24th of October that we were expecting. The following weekend I went to the ER for side pain. I was automatically thinking the worst. But turns out it was a false alarm but they did an vaginal ultrasound and said I was measuring 5 weeks with no heartbeat. But they said not to worry that it wa still early. So I scheduled an appt with the OB a week later. Went to my appt, they did a v/ultrasound to still say I was measuring at 5 weeks. They said everything looked okay and that they wanted to do some bloodwork. My hcg went up as they were suppose to, so dthey said to come back in 2 weeks. Which was this past wednesday, they completely blindsided me with a Blighted Ovum. I thought everything was fine only to find out my baby never developed. Not even a yolk sac was found just the gestational sac which is continueing to grow at the appropriate rate. My ultrasounds only lasted maybe 30 seconds (actual exam). I am still having morning sickness all day long. So I am just curious as to if there is no baby why do I still feel this way? The doctor is really pushing a d&c but how do I know if they're diagnosis was correct if they only examined me for that short period of time? I have read online that most of the time a definite diagnosis cannot be made until 10 weeks and they're saying I'm only 7. But I was just curious if anyone else has been thru this. And if it is an BO when will my body try and take care of it? Thanks!! Very concerned!
