Advice needed on limited growth of gestational sac and no heartbeat????.

[purplerain2000]

Hi ladies,

I got my first BFP result on the 28th May, after a bleed and a clot 3 days later I was referred to the EPU. I have had hcg and progesterone blood tests and all have been good. I had an abdominal scan last Monday that revealed a gestational sac was present and advised to come back today as visibility was limited. Today the gestational sac has only grown slightly and no heartbeat was visible??? Again this was done via an abdominal scan not a tranvaginal scan as requested by my clinic in Cyprus. Has anyone ever had this happen? Based on my first day of my last period I am approximately 7 weeks and 2 days? Any suggestions or experience on similar situations would be greatly appreciated as I am not sure what to do at this point? Does anyone think a private transvaginal scan would be any different????

Yes

Personally I would do a private transvaginal scan...

I wish you the best of luck

I totally agree with Vegemite. I had an internal scan today and although it takes them a little while to find things, when they did it was really clear. If you can go private for a scan I would x x

Of course but the best scan is TV so really hoping a bit more can be seen! Massive hugs, such a difficult time!!!😕xx

Hi

I think going to a private transvaginal scan would be a very good idea as they will be able to see exactly what is going on and in better detail !

I hope you have some good news. Fingers crossed for you xXx

[purplerain2000 in reply to Hopefulholly]

Thank you for your advise I have spoke with my clinic and they have said if I am comfortable with the sonographer just go for the transvaginal scan. xx

I would definitely have the internal scan! So much more can be seen on there x

[purplerain2000 in reply to Kitcat12]

Yeah thanks hun, we have booked our scan and will deffo do the TV scan just if anything for peace of mind. xx

Hi can I ask where you go for your private scan? I have to go to sutton for mine. If there's somewhere closer that would be great.

[Reer]
