Hi ladies
I had an early u/s this morning (I'm supposed to be 6 weeks today) following a small bleed on Monday which obviously worried me. I was being quite hopeful because the bleeding was only brief and it was nothing like when I miscarried 5 months ago. However, my world crumbled when the technician said she could only see 4mm sac (no pole, no yolk) which is a 4 week gestational stage, not 6 weeks. Following this, doc told me that hcg levels were just above 800, which would be consistent with the 4 week period. However, since I've been monitoring everything and keeping track of when me and dh did it, the dates just don't add up, and I'm a 28 days gal, no irregular cycle with me! I can appreciate that I might have ovulated a bit later than I thought and that the implantation took longer, but I can't be a whole 2 weeks off! I've been crying non stop since coming back from the hospital, I'm convinced there's something wrong. I've got more blood tests tomorrow to see if HCG is rising, but I guess my question is:
Realistically, what are my chances? I don't want to be positive just for the sake of it, I just want to know of any of you have been in this position before and what was the outcome? (Good or bad).
Thanks
