U/S results

Just back from my u/s.  Nothing was visible on abdominal, so they did transvaginal.  I am 7 weeks today, but little one is measuring only 5w3d. No cardiac activity.  They will repeat next week, but I know that means it's over for me.  Thank you for all your support and good wishes, but not meant to be this time.  I am grateful for my healthy little boy and we will try again for a sibling for him.  As those of you that have been through this with me before know, I will not be around for a bit.  I need to have a bit of a pity party, digest and grieve, then I will pick myself up and try again.  Just need a bit of time.  Thanks again for all your support, it means a great deal to me.  SSBD ladies!!!

Sorry, should have said my dream of having a child, not another.  That's the new dream.  

Thanks ladies.  He really does make anything difficult that much easier.  Plus, he doesn't leave me a lot of time to dwell on it.

Once again I am overwhelmed by the support here.  Thank you so much.

I will be having another u/s this week, but given that I am absolutely certain of my dates, and even allowing for late ovulation and implantation, a difference of 9 or 10 days simply isn't possible.  Yes, sometimes mistakes happen, but early u/s dating is pretty accurate.  Combined with the fact that the spotting has graduating to bleeding with clots, and I don't have much doubt.

This is always hard, but in all honesty, I truly am doing ok.  Prior to Ryder this was much harder as I had begun to give up hope of having another child.  I have my dream now, so while still sad, it is easier.  I hope that doesn't sound cold.  

I really just want this over now, and we will try again.  I am pretty stubborn, and as long as I continue to conceive, we will continue to try.  We are sad, but having a busy 10 month old to care for does help keep me focused.  He chose this week to begin to walk, and he can always put a smile on my face when I am feeling down.

Thanks again ladies, I truly don't know where I would be without the support, encouragement and love I feel here.  I appreciate you all so very much.
