So scared!!!

last saturday i thought i was 8wks and 3 day pregnat with my second baby. We conceived naturally and I used a Clear blue Indicator Pregnancy test. I hadn't had much morning sickness and felt well in my self, by breasts really swelled and were sore and I could no longer fit into my jeans. During the afternoon i started bleeding, only lightly more like bloody mucus ( apologies for TMI) we went straight to see a doctor who booked me in for an early scan. I was told to come back if it got extremently heavy or if i got severe pain with it. He said it didnt neceesarily mean i was having a miscarriage. But other than that I just had to wait for the scan. I continued to bleed , and it got heavier during the week. I went for the scan on Friday morning, thinking I would either be told i had miscarried or that my baby was ok.

I was not prepared for what the scan results showed - There were 3 yolk sacks!! But only one of them had a feotal pole, which from measurments could only be 5 weeks gestation!! IT was too early to have a heart beat so now i have to wait another 10 days for another scan to see if by baby has a heartbeat.

I am still bleeding but it is getting lighter and now i dont know if i lost my baby at 5 weeks and have started bleeding at 8 weeks or if the test was wrong.

I dont know if the other yolk sack will also have babies develope in them!?!?

I am so confused, scared, worried, anxious!?!?!?

THe mid wife said that my HCG levels would have been very hugh due to the conceiving more than one baby and so the test said i was further along that i thought.

Has anything like this ever happened to anyone??

[pebspop]

do you have regular cycles? is is possible that the baby would be five weeks rather than eight weeks?

[carloverswife]

yes my cycles have always been pretty regular. I have to admit we were pretty shocked when the test said i was about 4 weeks pregnant, but just assumed it was correct - as it had been with my son before.

I really want the test to have been wrong, but dont know what to make of of only one yolk sack having a baby, is it too late for the other two to develop??

The waiting is driving me crazy!!
