I'm Currently Feeling:  |  No heartbeat at eight weeks!
I just wanted to see if someone had a good story for me, I really need to grab onto some hope!!
I went for my first transvaginal scan yesterday at eight weeks and three days. They saw a gestational sac with a yolk sac but not fetus or heartbeat. The doctor kept asking me about my dates and though I could be off by a week, I'm pretty sure of them! They drew some blood which came back at 60,000 hcg today.
When he called me to give me the results, he said he wants to do another scan next week by which time I will be 9 weeks and 5 days. He told me to be cautiously optimistic but at the same time, realistic as this could be a missed miscarriage.
Has anyone gone back a second or even third time just to find a fetus and heartbeat or am I just kidding myself here?
Thank you!! | | | | Status: Offline
