SCH and small Sac size!!

Hi everyone. I have been going through IVF long protocol. l had the visibility scan 10 days ago at 6+4. Doctor could see everything plus a heart rate of 122. However, she told me the sac and embryo is in 5+4 (1 week younger than expected). There was a decent blood lining around the sac which she said maybe the reason of not letting the sac growing. She increased my vaginally pessaries from 6 a day to 8 and 2 orally as well (10 a day). Today l had the follow up scan, which shows the sac and embryo are in 6 weeks (2 weeks younger than expected). The blood lining is still there. Did anyone have an experience like this? Does anyone know anything that may assist with development and reducing the blood lining? Should l give up?😔😔 Any advice would much appreciated

Hi I’m going to be honest and say I haven’t seen any success stories where there has only been 5 days growth over 10 days - I’ve heard measuring a week behind is ok but 2 weeks is borderline? What was the heart rate like? If it was strong then still a chance possibly? Sorry I haven’t got more positive advice xx

Thanks for your reply. I know 😔. The heart rate was down to 102!
