when will I catch a break? sac not growing fast. :'(

I noticed we are the same too! Progesterone isn't always necessary... but my specialist put me on it because she thought it may help since I had a M/C in November... I have been taking it since about a week before I found out I was preggers. I guess it's supposed to support pregnancy and helps thicken the uterine lining too.

Really hoping everything is just fine for you. I have to admit that I have never heard of a sack too small before! esp if baby is doing well xx

I had to reply, but the exact same thing happened to me!! All was well , it caught up! Xx

Drink lots of water. Gestational sacs depend a lot on water, and I usually hear that when you have a smaller sac, doctors tend to recommened drinking more water. It can't hurt.

Your pictures look great, and the heartbeat is nice and strong. I had 4-5 moderately large bleeds and everything is still going strong. Ask them to look for a subchorionic hemorrhage or any degree of placenta previa. Those can cause bleeding (and I have both ).

Best of luck!! Fx

Don't panic yet...I can't help but feel your doctor was worrying you unnecessarily. He probably just wanted you to be prepared due to the unexplained bleeding, but..I think there's a huge possibility that the sack will catch up. And every baby/sack is different. Your baby is obviously doing awesome with the strong heartbeat. Hang in there girl. Hoping that soon you will be able to relax and enjoy the pregnancy.

And yes, I agree, drink more water! It can only help.

I'm no professional, but your sac looks like a lot I've seen on google. I think it will be fine! Let's keep the faith that it will turn out perfectly!

thank you that makes me feel good.. reassurance is always great.. and the sac has grown some, just is scary since I been bleeding for three days doc don't know why but thinks that could be it. atleast the baby has strong heartbeat.. and btw, I love you're picture!!!

Thank you, and your baby has a very strong hb, stronger than mine was at 7+4!!

thank you everyone it sucks so bad my baby is growing perfectly, but my sac isn't.. I don't understand how that happens. I'm bleeding more, it's just sad. I hate this idk how the baby is still alive. I am having period like cramps too and the blood is just getting worse. idk what to think. I think my baby is holding on for us and I just feel like the baby cant hold on much longer. this is seriously taking a toll on me. https://s1008.photobucket.com/user/annagymnast1256/library/?view=recent here is picture of one on left is today, one on right is from last weds

 

[annaaabanana]

i honestly don't know if my baby can fight for much longer.. my back is starting to ache bad and I'm cramping like a period. this is just the worst thing ever i hate this. it's like i hear the babys heartbeat three times and get the see the baby three times all to get let down i know there is still hope but i haven't been hurting like this only bleeding

 

[wannanewbaby]

Im so sorry anna i will say im having alot of cramping lately to. Its normal you know things got to grow. I really hope that its not a bad sign for you. Im thinking of you and that little bean.

 

[shannonleigh]

anna I'm not sure if this will help at all but I had bad lower back ache and cramping since I was 4 weeks all the way up until about 9/10. It still comes back now and again, I was 100% sure it meant a miscarriage but it's all fine, even the doctor said back ache is perfectly normal it doesn't always mean a miscarriage.
