Ultrasound not good

Egg sac there, but I'm measuring a week behind, 5 wks instead of 6, so no heartbeat detected. Doctor very concerned, said that miscarriage is probable at this point. We are awaiting beta blood results.

I told him I had implantation bleeding at 12/13 dpo or cd26, that I thought it was too late for it to be implantation and expected my period to start, but it didn't, and then of course I turned out to be pregnant. I asked if it's possible that I really am behind due to a late implantation, especially since my first beta was so strong, and I haven't had any spotting or cramping, and I have had symptoms this whole time. He said it's possible, he's seen it happen before, but it doesn't happen often, especially since I received a trigger shot to induce ovulation on a set day. That I probably have a good placenta but not a good embryo. Why do I feel like he's giving up on this pregnancy before we even know the results of the beta? He also said, "well at least you got pregnant." Yep, thanks. He seemed confused as to why we were so upset, like it was too early to have gotten attached. I hate my clinic. I truly do.

It is an understatement to say that we are devastated and very confused. Why is this happening?????? I feel like a part of me is dying, has died. Please don't leave me, baby, please. Please please please please please.

  1. I'm so sorry.

    I had two missed miscarriages last year - one found at 9 weeks, one found at 8. It is devastating.

  3. I'm so sorry, Melissa. Even though you said there was a high probability, it don't think you really can be prepared for this. It doesn't make it any easier. I'm still holding out all my hope for your little one.

  6. Melissa, I am so sorry that your doctor is acting so crass; BUT I'm a firm believer in staying optimistic. Your doctor doesn't know what's going on in your womb - it really could just be late implantation; so, do not worry about something that might not even be so. Easier said than done, I realize that for sure.

    I have only experienced one miscarriage that I knew of. It certainly wasn't pleasant, and I still get emotional thinking about it. So, don't let some doctor make you feel as though you have no right to feel everything you're feeling right now! I have no idea why things like this happen...but I DO believe that there is a reason for everything and a bigger plan being played out that we don't always understand or think is fair.

    I am thinking of and praying for you and the LO inside. BIG (((HUGS))) to you!
