Is there hope?

Yesterday I went to my first exam. I should be 8 weeks, but they told me it seems as if I am around 6 weeks. The baby heart rate is 53. The doctor told me I will miscarry within the next week or 2. I asked if there was a chance it wouldn't happen and she told me no. I want to still have hope, but is she right?  I can't focus. I'm almost numb. I'm just waiting to miscarry.... What a terrible feeling.

Did you miscarry? If you did I'm so sorry for your lost I miscarried my first baby at about 8 weeks when I went for my ultrasound they couldn't find a heart beat I was so depressed and after a month I got pregnant again I'm now 26 weeks with a baby girl she's doing good. My husband and I prayed a lot and God gave us strength and hope so I know He will do the same for you don't give up hope you'll have a baby soon. God bless you!

Thanks again everyone for helping me keep hope! Still feel normal.... I go back this Friday for an ultrasound and a consultation. When they called me last week about my blood test, they told me my hormone level was normal for 6 weeks but low for 8 weeks. The same doctor who told me I will loose the baby in the next two weeks says something like not time to give up hope just yet! Are you kidding me!!!! Once I know everything is good, I'll be looking for a new doctors office.

So sorry you have to go through this. Perhaps you just had a late ovulation and it's all just a little delayed. Dont't loose hope. You might consider changing your doctor, she should not tell you you have no chance like that, not as long as the baby has a heartbeat. Normally they should put you on bed rest and call you back in a week to monitor progress.

Thank you everyone... I still have hope. I had a voicemail that my blood test came back inclusive. Not sure what that's all about awaiting a call back. Sounds better then hearing my hormones came back too low or something! We 'll see... Feeling a little better. Thanks to all of you again.
