I'm sorry, this might not be the right board but I'm not sure where else to put it. This is sensitive as I need to include a few details but I'm going crazy with this going around in my head and I need to know what someone objective thinks.
I had my first pregnancy scan on Thursday. Based on my dates I thought I would be 11 weeks but baby was only 7 weeks 6 days. It was a standard scan, not transvaginal. Consultant came into the scan and asked were my periods regular (not really - range from 28 to 44 days) he pointed out there was no heartbeat, no blood flow to the baby and no movement. He concluded the baby had died and then talked to me about what happened next.
Now to the dates. LMP was 14th September and I thought I'd conceived on 26th September. (We are TTC so certain about the date). It was only after I got home and looked at a diary I remembered we'd also had sex on 11th October.
Is it crazy to think I might have conceived on 11th October and the baby is ok for size? Or is all the other scan results (heartbeat, blood flow, movement) an indicator that the baby is gone.
I asked to think about my next step so I have a few days to think.
I'm sorry to ask here but it's easier to type and have strangers think I'm crazy than say it out loud. And I don't mind if you do say I'm crazy - I just need to get this thought out of my head.
