Positive stories - small gestational sac

Hello, I had a second early scan today following a bleed. The bleed is no longer a concern but there is a new issue, being that the embryo (which has grown and has a heartbeat) measures 8weeks but the gestational sac is small - so a discrepancy between both. This increases the likelihood of miscarriage and online I read it is a sign of impending miscarriage. I now have a follow up scan planned late next week.

In the meantime does anyone here have positive stories of the gestational sac catching up and the pregnancy going to term? I appreciate it is bad news and I need to hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

hey, what was your outcome? I’m in a similar position, small gestational sac, large yolk and heart beat. I’m going back on Wednesday for a scan to see what we’ll do next. X

Sadly I lost the pregnancy last week after 2 scans with strong heartbeat. Look after yourself xx
