NanceXToo Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Thanks, all. I do have the ultrasound today at 2:30 PM. I'm not particularly looking forward to it but do want to know what the next step is. It's now been five days since the spotting started and nothing has happened on its own. I don't know what to expect, if they're going to tell me to wait it out, to stop the progesterone and see if that does anything, or tell me I have to get a shot or a d&c or what. While I'm still sad I have basically come to terms with the fact that this one is a loss, too. I'm kind of nervous about how it is supposed to happen though.

NanceXToo Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 So. My head is spinning. Dr said that the small "yolk sac" the ER doc saw in the endometrial canal was not a yolk sac at all but some small cyst that women commonly get that's "nothing." the small gestational sac they saw in the uterus in the ER showed nothing in it. Today at the OB the gestational sac has grown larger- and there is a yolk sac in it- in the right place!!! She says it is definite progress and there's no way she's throwing in the towel yet. I was concerned that there was no fetal pole but she said I ovulate a bit later than "normal" which would put me a bit behind and that if I'm really only a little over 5 weeks, it doesn't necessarily mean anything bad if they don't see a fetal pole yet. She was like "can I promise it will be ok? No, but I'm not worried yet." I have to go back a week from today to repeat the ultrasound! I am still nervous and still have doubts because of how much my hcg rise slowed down last time but she doesn't want to dwell on that and doesn't want me to do any more bloodwork because she thinks the numbers just make me crazy. So I'm back to waiting and hoping and being scared as heck but not feeling quite as upset and hopeless as I was before the visit! Keep praying for me!

Scrub Jay Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Good luck!! I am currently pregnant and at 6 weeks my doctor (an infertility specialist, so someone who was very good with an u/s) did not see a hb or anything. She was pretty sure I had a blighted ovum. We went back at 6 1/2 weeks and there was a hb. I was floored. Since my doc was such an expert I figured her gut reaction was right, I hope your story ends happily like mine. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanceXToo Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Oh super! So it was most likely implantation that caused you issue? I am crossing all my available crossable parts! :grouphug: I'm not sure! She said it could be implantation spotting and I was like but I had that a couple of weeks ago! She said sometimes it lingers, or sometimes there's a sub chorionic (?) bleed, but it's been pretty much non existant for the past couple of days so she's not worried about the spotting. I'd be feeling more optimistic if my last hcg draw had risen higher, or there was a fetal pole today, but no use focusing on "if only this had happened" I guess. I didn't get totally bad news and can't give up hope, but also don't want to allow my hopes to raise too much only to have them dashed even harder, so somehow I just have to get through another week of waiting and see what happens!

newlifemom Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 My dd [now 6] was supposed to be a miscarriage. Her numbers were rising very slowly.

JenC3 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 So happy to hear this! Nance, I'm still not getting excited, my m/c started at 9 weeks last time so until I pass that point...But all you can do is relax and forget about it. The hardest part is being tired, cranky or weirdly hungry and not being able to tell the kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
