Pregnancy of Unknown Location - this probably isn't going to end well, is it?

Went to the EPU this morning after a couple of days of brown spotting. By LMP should 6w3d but period always few days late so probably less. The scan couldn't find anything in the uterus except 'a black spot which might or might not be something'. My DS also showed up late on early scans but by this stage there was at least a sac so I suspect it's not good news. Had bloods taken and have to go back in 48 hours.

I'm also confused as to why I suddenly have a tilted uterus apparently when I didn't in my first pregnancy and am convincing myself now that they put everything back in wrong after my EMCS with DS.

It's the waiting that I hate so much. Sad

I've been following this thread and hoping for the best. I'm really sorry for your loss artifarti. You've been through such a saga to have to deal with bad news at the end of it. Look after yourself in the coming days, weeks, months and I hope you have good support in RL.

A gentle, unMNetty hug from me.

sweetheart, I am so, so sorry. I know that theres nothing much I can say, but feel free to pm me if you need to offload xxx

Thank you both (and Glittery, I see from another thread that you are off for your 12 week scan so really really hope it all goes well for you. x) Fortunately my RL support couldn't be better. Not to mention the support from people on MN.

Feel surprisingly fine at the moment but realise that it may not last.

So so sorry - I had a blighted ovum discovered about 6 weeks ago, but (in a way) I guess it was better for me as I had no early scans, bleeding or anything, didn't find out til 12+2 at normal first scan, so at least I didn't have a waiting game like you did, they could say straightaway that it was non continuing. So sorry you've had all this waiting around and hoping for better news, it must be heartbreaking.

So glad that you have great support in RL. Take really good care of yourself and pm me if you need to.

hugs

artifarti So very considerate of you to wish me well at this point. I've had a blighted ovum, so know how cruel it is to have that dream snatched away from you, but like wellieboots I only found out at the 12 week scan, so didn't have to wait long before my body finally latched onto the fact that something was wrong. I hope it isn't too bad physically for you and we'll be here with a HTH in the weeks to come. I coped okay immediately after the news, but it hit me like a ton of bricks when I was expected to be over it a few weeks later. I'm really pleased you have good support in RL.

wellieboots I'm really sorry for your loss too. xx

Thanks wellieboots. I guess at least I've had time to prepare for possible bad news. It must have been devastating for you to find out at that scan. But God, there's no right way with this shit, is there? I hope that you have support too and that better times are ahead for you.
