I hope some can help me.

LAst AF was 4/12/09 and got BFP on 2/1/10. I started to bleed around 6.30pm last night and attende the out of hours surgery. They done a pregnancy test which was positive but advised me to attend the Early Pregnancy Unit this morning.

I did and got an internal and external scan. They can see the sac and there is an outline of a baby measuring 4.3mm but they couldn't find a heartbeat. I;ve to go back next week for another scan but I'm all over the place worrying that I'm MC.

Has anyone else ever had something similar?

a lot of pregnancies start out with the occasional bleeding, and I agree with what merryxmas said- you've done all you can, and basically all you can do now is wait for the scan next week...good luck!

I had a threatened mc with my first DC which involved quite a bit of bleeding over 1-2 days, even some clotting, then it stopped. I was further along than you are, so when I had a scan there was a heartbeat. It may simply be in your case that it's too early to see the heartbeat. If your bleeding stops, it may just be a threatened mc; if it continues, it may be for real. Wish for you that it's the former, and that everything progresses just fine. Take good care of yourself.

hi, i had the same thing with this pregnancy, i was 5/6 weeks and started to bleed, went for a scan and they said there was a sac but couldn't see anything else and to come back in 10 days... those 10 days seemed like the longest i will ever experience, we went back to find a little beating heart and according to the lady that did the scan it's not unusual for the heartbeat or fetal pole to be hidden until about 8/9 weeks and sometime later depending on the positioning. im now 26 weeks and continued to bleed on and off until i was about 16 weeks so please try not to worry although i know how hard that can be. there is hope and this by no means that your little bean isn't there!
Good luck x
