Ivf baby measuring behind

Hello everyone ,

I am asking for your kind help , i did FET on 22 April , transferred 2 embryos 1 took , betas were looking great and my progesterone levels were good .. i went to my first ultrasound where i thought i was 7 weeks 3 days the us showed the baby 6 weeks 4 days and the heartbeat was intermittent like flickering but she did not measure it i was so nervous and my heart was pounding so she had trouble locating heartbeat i saw a flicker on screen but it was not continuous . The RE only told me everything is good we have a heartbeat but we don't like to measure at this point since we don’t want to press on the baby. But i am worried sick .. first my baby is a week behind and the heartbeat was not strong or continuous he wants me back on Tuesday to follow up but he wouldn't give me any answers and i know things are not going great i just don't like he is not telling me anything

Can anyone share their experiences ? Anyone had ivf with this situation ? I would like to hear positive / negative stories since i already prepared myself for the worst

Thank you all

I had similar last year. As soon as I got bfp last year had lots of symptoms - mostly feeling and being sick. They all disappeared before the scan at 6 week. At that scan there were 2 sacs one didn’t have a HB, the other did but it was “bradycardic” - I knew from my medical background this wasn’t good. I went back a week later and the heartbeat had stopped - the other hadn’t developed. I hope it’s a better outcome for you. I prepared myself for the worse but it was still devastating xx
