I should be 6 + 4 days pregnant and I went for a general pelvic scan ( on going issues since mmc at 15 weeks last dec) to see if we could get some reassurance but I’m now filled with worry. He said he could see a gestational sac and maybe yolk sac but image was so grainy would be hard to tell. Also said I was just a few weeks and should take a pregnancy test but I know I should be 6 plus weeks. I also have a 5cm cyst on ovary.
I have contacted midwife who seems to think it could be a blighted ovum but I have no idea. Was it just that he was a general sonographer and wouldn’t be able to date such an early pregnancy or should I prepare to miscarry again? I have called gp to see is he would check hcg but said he wouldn’t as couldn’t interpret results. They are also reducing the scans they are carrying out because of this stupid virus so I don’t know what to do or think. My husband is devastated, I know he is- I seem to have failed again 😭
Is there still hope do u think? Please help me!

What an awful situation, your head must be in bits. I don't really know what to say except it is still pretty early days so I hope it was just too soon for inexperienced eyes to see everything properly in a poor image. Keeping everything crossed for you and hoping you can find a way to get some answers soon xxx
Was the scan a normal scan or transvaginal? So early on in pregnancy it should always be an internal scan as not a lot can be seen at all with an abdominal scan. Also is this an ivf pregnancy or natural conception? Obviously if it’s a natural pregnancy there can be a margin of error with dates and 6 weeks is fairly early to see much xx
It was a natural pregnancy so just got to hope that dates are a bit out! As I mentioned it was just a general pelvic scan to check for issues so mebbe wasn’t as good as early pregnancy scan? He did a vaginal u/s as well as abdominal but I found pics very poor quality so hoping because things would be so small it may not show?? I just got to wait I guess 😩
