7 week 4 day scan

I went for my 7 week 4 day scan today to see if anything had appeared in the 2nd gestational sac and although this had got bigger and a yolk sac was now showing, there was no embryo or heartbeat. They said it’s highly unlikely that an embryo will grow at this point and it will more than likely just disappear. I never expected twins to be honest but had started to picture what this would be like 😔 Thankfully our other embryo had more than doubled in size and is doing great with a strong heartbeat. Looks a bit like a jelly baby at this point haha! I’ve been given the paperwork to book in with the midwife now, which is pretty surreal as I never thought I’d get to this stage, but I’m so thankful! Wishing all you lovely ladies lots of luck, wherever you are on this journey 🙏💕 xX

As far as I know. The 12 week scan seems ages away. Just over 2 weeks to go but very tempted to have a private one xx

Glad to hear you’ve had good news on your scan. Hearing the heartbeat is such a great milestone to reach - you must be over the moon! I’m sorry about the second twin - sad news on that when you’re starting to expect you might get two xx

Thanks Hun 💕 yes we are made up about our little one that’s taken. It’s sad our 2nd Embie didn’t make it, but we are so glad we didn’t go with their advice and just have the one transferred. I hope your doing ok after your bfn? 😘 xX
