Thanks Rockrose. I am also very confused about the measurements. But the er doctor said there was a heartbeat so everything is going good. I just don't want false hope. But I can only hope for the best and believe that this pregnancy will work. I was going to get testing for my MCs but this pregnancy was unplanned and very unexpected so I didn't have a chance to. I'm beginning to think something is seriously wrong with me and I'll never be able to have another child. I just wish I knew what. The doctor did say at 6 weeks my progesterone levels were perfect so idk.
casey, I'm sorry you're having to go through this. The waiting and wondering is so painful.
It does sound likely that this will end in miscarriage. I'm not sure what the ER doc was talking about, but if the baby has already begun demise - the difference between your 7 week and 9 week sonograms are a real concern - there really isn't anything they can do at this time. There is some hope, that by some miracle the sonogram was actually incorrect and there hasn't been a slow down in growth and your baby is fine.
I had two early miscarriages and the doctor told me there was nothing that could be done, and they don't take any measures to save a failing very early pregnancy because it just prolongs the distress and the inevitable outcome.
If you were 20 weeks pregnant, the doctors would move mountains to save your baby because there are hopeful outcomes at that time.
If this turns out to be a failed pregnancy, you need help before you get pregnant again. Four miscarriages indicates a problem that can probably be solved next time - like with progesterone therapy.
Best wishes and prayers for you during this time, and praying for a miracle that the sonograms were wrong.
I do believe in miracles and I'm trying so hard to stay positive but this is so sadly familiar. But then again when this happened all the other times they could not find a heartbeat. So my fingers are crossed that my baby survives and we make it through this!! I just don't know if it will happen BC this bleeding does not seem normal :(
Thanks for all the responses ladies I really appreciate it. They did a pelvic exam and my cervix was closed which surprised me. I don't understand where all this blood is coming from?? They did a ultrasound and said they saw a heartbeat but I couldn't see it. But said I was only measuring around 8weeks 1day when my ultrasound 2weeks ago said 7weeks 2days. So I am very confused and scared. They did say it was a threatened mc and to stay off my feet and see my doctor in a few days. I have my ob intake on Monday so I'm guessing they will make me wait until then since my doc told me there is nothing they can do. Which is bs BC the er doc told me to see my on within 48hours. So idk I'm so lost and confused. My bleeding is heavier and I'm cramping :/
Caseypatt no they didn't do an ultrasound just a pelvic exam I was very discouraged with the care I got granted it was 6 years ago not sure if things are different now but hopefully your doing better hun let us know how your doing when you can. Have faith there's always a special pan for all of us
Yes how are you now I hope the bleeding stopped..
