I have had the same doctor for the past few years, a very kind woman who gave me a lot of sympathy and help when I was TTC for the many years we tried. I trusted her completely and let her words bring me peace.
However there has now been 2 instances where she has scared so badly that I couldn't think straight for a week. About 4 months ago she did my HSG test, screwed it up and told me both my ovaries were blocked and I needed surgery. My whole world crashed down on me. I lost every bit of hope of conceiving. 4 hours later she called back and said the technician didn't think the test was right and asked me to come the next day. Everything was fine with my ovaries. Completely. Normal.
Now today, I go in for my dating ultrasound and they only found the gestational sac and yolk sac, indicating I was a week behind in my calculations (5.5-ish weeks is their guess now). So she calls me, leaves me a message saying it may be too soon to see baby or I could be having an impending miscarriage.
WHY would anyone say that to someone who has suffered as much as I have over these past few years? I go to her because she is affordable and I thought she had my best interests at heart but it just seems like she is scaring me into thinking my baby, my very first, will die.
I have been in the same practice group my entire life, from an infant until now. I don't even know how to go about switching practices.
I don't know what to do. After reading around its very common not to see baby or heartbeat this early, but now I have slipped into a depression thinking this is it. Any wise words of advice for a terrified and hopeful mom to be?
