I've been trying to hold it together this week but it's proving more difficult as the week progresses. I had my emergency scan last friday as I had spotting and pain on the right side of my ovary. Transvaginal ultrasound showed that the pregnancy is in my uterus but is only a sac and yolk sac. Doctor estimated that I was 5 weeks plus instead of 6 like I thought. I had blood drawn and my first lot of betas were 16000+ and then on sunday my second was nearly 30000. I'm not sure if that's a good doubling time and I have been researching all week. I've been being sick for the past 4 days but progressively worse over the past 24hrs. I must have been sick at least 19 times since yesterday.
I was trying to feel confident as I haven't had any further spotting since sunday but then I found out my friend who was suppose to be 14 weeks pregnant miscarried her baby this week and it had stopped growing at 6 weeks. Despite this, she was still experiencing nausea and vomiting so I now feel like I can't take any comfort in my symptoms and that when I go for my follow up scan on monday, I'll be told the baby hasn't grown, it's not got a heartbeat and that the sickness and nausea has all been in my head. I'm terrified. I've tried talking to my DH about my feelings but he brushes them off and doesn't think we have anything to worry about. I wish I could feel his confidence but instead I'm torturing myself and the nightmares are unreal.
