Mmc - feeling odd

Hello. I should be 8 and a half weeks now, I went for a scan at what should have been 7 weeks just because I was anxious. She said I was measuring 5 and a half weeks and to go back in a week, I knew something was up as I was sure on my dates. Went back a week later and there had been no progress, she has referred me to the EPU but they said I have to wait another week. I know that this is a MMC, I know my dates and also my symptoms eased a little from the 5.5 point, now it’s just a waiting game. Every day I’m waiting to start bleeding, why do they make us wait again? I also have felt really off, almost like I’m getting ill achy and just a bit fuzzy. I suffer with anxiety so always thinking the worst. Surely this can’t be linked? Or can it? Any advice of positive words would be great. Thank u so much x

I was in the exact same position earlier this year. Literally the same scenario. I like you was just waiting for the bleeding to start, it never happened for me and I had a procedure in the end. The waiting around was horrible, I also had HG so was being extremely sick the whole time whilst knowing it was for nothing.

Once the procedure had been done, I actually felt much better, the sickness stopped instantly and I no longer felt in the limbo that I had felt before.

I am really sorry that things have gone this way for you, it is really sad
