Not great news at our second scan but not disastrous either. They could just about pick up the flicker of a heartbeat but it hasn't grown as much as it should in a week and is still measuring small for 7 weeks. My heart was absolutely pounding so I'm worried that's what they were picking up and mistaking for a foetal heartbeat - is that possible? Got to go back for another scan next Monday; "guarded optimism" was the term the consultant used
The heartbeat is something positive I guess, but slow growth usually means not viable

He didn't give me the measurements this time, just said it was small. Didn't even get a picture, they didn't offer one and I didn't stop to ask, just wanted to get out of there before I cried... Just gonna prepare for the worst now and hope for good news on Monday.
