I got a positive test in the middle of January and I had an early scan (because of previous suspected ectopic) at what I thought was ~6 weeks but all it showed was an empty gestational sac measuring about 5 - 51/2 weeks. The sonographer was nice and said not to worry just come back in 10 days. I went back at what I thought was 7 1/2 weeks. The sac had grown and a yolk sac could be seen but no foetal pole. I was told to come back in 7 days (tomorrow) but she wasn't as positive this time :(
The thing is, I've been exhausted, my boobs have been sore the entire time and this week I've gone between feeling really hungry (waking up in the middle of the night!) to queasy pretty much all day. Honestly, if I hadn't had these early scans I would be thinking everything was progressing as normal! From what I've read it seems possible that I've been measuring a week behind so at last week's scan I would have been only 6 ½ weeks along which, from what I've read, can be borderline for seeing the foetal pole and a heartbeat. I'm hoping that's the case and that tomorrow when I go in everything will be fine but I'm just so worried. I've had 2 previous miscarriages (years apart) and I had bleeding with both of them but apart from a bit of brown staining with this one, it's been fine.
Does any one have any positive stories to keep me going until tomorrow? This has been the longest week ever and today is just dragging by :(
