Long shot but I wondered if anyone can shed some positive experience or advice.
I went to EPAU on 21st of Aug after some spotting and cramping. At the time they could only see a gestational sac. Said to return in 2 weeks.
In the meantime, Due to my anxiety, I went/was gifted 2 private scans due to increased bleeding. The first one said that the gestational sac had doubled and there was now a yolk sac (1 week after EPAU scan). This was also a transvaginal scan.
The 2nd private scan was unintentional and was a gift (different clinic). This scan they won’t do transvaginal so it was an abdominal scan. They said that they could see an embryo and a flicker. This was only 48 hours later so I was shocked.
Anyway, I returned to EPAU yesterday for my 2 week follow up. They were really pleased with my progress and said there was now a embryos measuring 3.9mm but no HB yet and to come back in 10 days. I didn’t have the heart to say that the private clinic saw a hb.
I know it sounds negative and I’ve prepared myself for that, but I’m just wondering if anyone could make me feel any better during this 10 day wait. Could the private abdominal scan be less reliable?
