My first post here and looking for people who have been through similar...
I had a positive test on 26th March with a FRER. I'm not sure if the test picked up SUPER early or not, it doesn't help that my cycles had been sort of irregular beforehand (I had two periods in February, for example).
Anyway last Friday we went for a scan. They just did an abdominal one (no internal scans or blood tests) but found that the fetal pole was measuring 5mm and is of uncertain viability. She told us it's unlikely to be viable going by my dates. I was told to come back in 10 days for another scan (absolute torture..!).
My mental health was struggling, so I booked a private scan yesterday to have an internal scan done. She found a fetal pole estimated to be 6w5d as well as a large sac and no heartbeat. She believes it is likely the baby has stopped growing around 6 weeks.
How do I get through this next week? I am walking around in a haze. I have a 4yr old to care for too, and I just don't want to do anything. The guilt of that alone is eating me up. I still have pregnancy symptoms which is making it even harder. I feel like this wait is just prolonging the heartbreak before they tell us the inevitable.
Has anyone gone through this? Is there any hope at all? How do I survive this next week?
I've attached copies of what the sonographer found yesterday in case it helps at all. Thank you x
