Early pregnancy problems

[Kirst40]

Hey all.

I am a 39 yr old woman and found out I was pregnant!

According to my last period date I'm 10 weeks pregnant but know I'm actually 8 weeks and with the dates and the clear blue conception dater which confirms that I am currently 8 weeks! Anyway I started to have a brown discharge yesturday along with abit of stomach discomfort so had an early pregnancy scan today and the senographer said the yolk sac matches my 8 weeks but the fetus pole is only suggesting I'm 5 weeks and 3 days! The lady said that it's likely the fetus has stopped growing and to prepare for the worse case scenario, I have to go bk in a week to see if there has been any growth and should hear a heart beat!

Please please has anyone else been through this and what was the outcome, positive or negative input needed!

Thanks in advance
