Hi all

I need a bit of advice. I have pcos and conceived with clomid. Because my cycles are all over the place its been difficult to work out how far along I am. I had my first positive test on 13th March. I went for an early scan on 16th March and the midwife said she could see a gestational sac but it was too small to measure. I went back in on 21st for a rescan and she said the sac had more than doubled in size and the ultrasound equipment gave me a 5 weeks and 3 days reading.

Today I went to the EPAU where they did a scan and found the sac but said it was empty. The sonographer went as far as saying as i thought i was 6 weeks she would expect to see the yolk sac today and as she hasn't she can't even call it a gestational sac.

The nurse has taken bloods today and will repeat on Thursday but even she said judging by when i first got my positive test i should be 6 weeks and they would expect to see more. So she thinks I'm miscarrying.

We've been trying to get pregnant for 6 years so this is a massive blow for us.

Could I maybe not be exactly 6 weeks? Could the date from the ultrasound not be quite right? Even if it was out by a few days would it make any difference?

Has anyone had an empty sac at 6 weeks and ended up not miscarrying?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Sorry to read your situation. I do not have any advice but am in a simaliar situation to you. ( see my post new to site and confused)
I just wanted to say I’m sorry for what you’re going through. I have 6 more days to wait and see if my dates were out by 5 weeks or whether I am having a miscarriage. It is just an awful place to be xxx

I had a scan at 5+2 wks just a empty sac they made me wait 2 wks for my next scan at 7+1wks when we saw something she said we may not see anything even then so would have to have had a enternal scan.
Hope everything goes well x

Hi angelinthenight

Thanks. Mine was an internal one today. It hurt like anything. The lady was quite rough! Just need to wait for the bloods to come back I guess. I'll know either way on Thursday afternoon.

Ok so bloods are back. On 26th March they were 12348, today (28th) they are 13683. The nurse said that it wasnt a big rise but also after 12000 they don't expect to see the score double.

My gestational sac measured at 10x6x9mm.

I have to go in for a rescan on 8th April - in 10days time. It's going to be a long wait!

Any advice on the scores?x
