Another confusing day here. My dr rang this morning and said my hcg hadn't doubled in 48hrs like it should have. Don't know what the actual results were but she didn't want me to wait until 25/3 for a scan, so I had one today. They could see a sac, but said was very small and couldn't see anything else and I was measuring about 5+2 rather than 6+5 that I thought I was. My last period began on 28/1 and we bd'd on 11th and 14th Feb.
I am feeling pretty sure that it's another blighted ovum miscarriage (sac but no foetus) but obviously won't know until I talk to my doctor, hopefully tomorrow. Very sad right now, can't believe this could happen to us twice

Oh Scully, i am in the exact same boat as you
my scan is due Monday, it is 10 days since i had the same scan results as you....sac, nothing else.
I have had 2 HCG bloods taken and they had almost doubled.
Said sac looked like maybe a 5 week pregnancy.
This will be my 2nd blighted ovum pregnancy as well
I am just not thinking about it, till i know for sure on Monday.
Feel pregnant, boobs sore, no bleeding no pain and feel queasy....but i felt like this with the last blighted ovum too, so doesnt mean much does it.
good to know that i am not alone with this.

Definitely not alone, hard to believe it can happen twice in a row. I got to 12+1 last time before I knew there was anything wrong. That's what prompted these early tests this time, to give me peace of mind
But still would rather know now than wait another 5wks. I also feel pregnant though, that's what was hard to get my head around last time, that your body can deceive you like this, for so long.
Hope your scan is good news on Monday, or at least gives you some answers so there's no more waiting.

Thanks.
I knew at 6 weeks last time but didnt mc till i was 13 weeks, was a very very tough time.
I feel the same, i just want to know.
Will do on Monday, till then i jsut cannot even think that i may be carrying a baby. I cant allow myself to think past Monday.
I am just carrying on as normal.
DH is less pessimistic and has a huge broad smile when he asks me how i feel today...i say nauseous and boobs sore.......he knows like i know deep down tho but he just so so so wants a baby.
So do i, but for some reason,i am unable to do this.

scully, can i ask, have you had bleeding and pain?

Popsy! Glad your scan went well! Please come find me on FB when you are ready to be outed! I am on the MN group.

Good luck Winky, hope you are holding your LO now!

Donbean & Scully, sorry you are both having such a tough time - big {{{hugs}}} to both of you.

Need some advice it may seem a dumb question but ater the stitch i was told to look out for infection, the thing is i'm now worried that every mark in my knickers is a sign of infection!
Its so bad i have even got the other half to look in my knickers.
The doctor said you would really be able to tell if it was an infection as it would smell strong is that true? is normal smell ok and whats normal?
Sorry as you can tell slightly neurotic....

good luck to winky hope all went well.

sorry to donbean & scully thoughts with you both.

Hello all - hope all is going ok with you Winky although you won't be reading this right now!!
Donbean, Scully thinking of you - my first m/c was blighted ovum - everything felt fine until the 7th week, when they then told me the news that everything stopped real early. Hard to take. Thinking of you. xx

((((scully + donbean)))

uly not sure what the signs are I would say ring your midwife not point taking risks even if it is not. She may ask you about smell, colour discomfort, signs of temperature.....

Uly just done a very quick search on line

If you've had a cerclage and experience any of the following symptoms, call your doctor immediately:

• Vaginal spotting or bleeding
• Your amniotic sac begins leaking or breaks
• You have a temperature over 100.4 degrees F (38 degrees C)
• You have signs of infection, including chills, a cough, or if you feel weak and achy.

Scully and donbean - sorry to hear you're both going through such a tough time right now. Hoping for the best for you

Sorry Don missed your last message, I went to bed (I'm in Australia so 9rs ahead), makes conversations a little disjointed
I've had no bleeding, a little aching but no pain. I had no bleeding last time until 12+1, so I'm not very trusting of my body not to draw this out
GP party of the surgery isn't open today so will have to wait until tomorrow to talk to my doctor. The scan results were sent to her electronically but I'm at work tomorrow so going to be interesting.
Thx for all your positive thoughts, fingers crossed for both of us
