D/C or Wait?????? help

[loulylou]

help..... my Dr sure isn't.....
I am measuring 7.10, have a perfect sac with no fetal pole or heartbeat.  Last week, I went to the Dr. for some spotting and was measuring about 5 and a half weeks (6.4) with hcg levels of 2400.  Progesterone was low (10), so Dr put me on progesterone suppositories, and asked I come back for a u/s in a week.

Today, sac was bigger (6.4-7.10) in a week, but nothing in it.  Dr advised I go ahead and take pills to start the miscarriage or schedule a D/C.

First, she didn't even take blood today to measure my levels.  The u/s tech was MAYBE 20 and clueless....I still have symptoms.  just wondering if I should get a second opinion or if there is no shot and should schedule the D/C.  I've read some people have waited and the fetal pole and heartbeat actually showed up later......

Has this happened to anyone??? What to do?????????

I would not do anything until l you get that 2nd hcg test to see if your numbers are dropping. I wish you the best of luck!!

Don't make a decision yet go back for hcg test and an ultrasound to confirm everything it will probably be better if you wait two weeks for the ultrasound because by then you would be able to see something but please don't make a decision without being absolutely sure I am hoping for the best outcome for you but if a D&C is what you need from experience it is a very quick,easy and painless procedure you will be in my prayers please keep me updated

I'd ask the doctor for a second blood test to see if your hCG levels are rising.  It is possible you were not at 5 1/2 weeks when the doctor said you were.  Certainly wouldn't do a D&C or take the pills until you have both a second hCG test and a third ultrasound.
