*sensitive* UPDATE. 8 week scan tomorrow

Rehsuh profile image
67 Replies

Hi all, I have an 8 week early scan at IvF clinic tomorrow. At my three previous 8 week scans I’ve had bad news every time and subsequently miscarried (either no heart beat or there was but baby was small and not likely to continue - no heartbeat the next time). I’m beside myself with anxiety tonight. This time it feels different as I’ve been horrendously sick and pretty much bed ridden for three weeks. Still terrified though. I guess I’ll update this tomorrow. Wish me luck 😓 love xx

Hi all- it was all good, baby had good heart beat and measured perfectly! Thought I was dreaming 😊 still early days but I hope this brings positivity to others in similar situations! Xx

Good luck!! I have a similar track record with scans but my last scan- first in this pregnancy- bucked that trend. Hoping the same for you, and it sounds like you have some reassuring symptoms there xx

My 8 week viability scan is today too and I'm a nervous wreck. I completely understand how you feel. My symptoms have been really on and off but I think mild. A few days where I feel OK and normal and the occasional day where I feel hungover. I had a few waves of nausea but brief and mild. I've been so worried as I've not felt pregnant enough. I do have constant heartburn though. I had a scan at 10 weeks last summer but the baby had stopped developing at 6 and no heart beat. I'm so scared and they won't let my partner come with me. I understand why but with people being allowed to get their haircut and pile into primark I thought my partner would be allowed. I really wish you all the best today xx

Rehsuh in reply to Victoria1800

Goodness me, very best of luck to you too and yes that seems mean not to let your partner in now. Yes you really analyse the symptoms don’t you - I’m comparing mine to how they were a week ago and wondering if they’re less severe and if that means something. Well best of luck and let me know if you want to xx

Been there too but scans at 12w to find blighted or heart had stopped I was terrified to go alone at 6w but everything was fine then had a couple more private scans +nhs just to try to keep the anxiety down. I’m 33w now all going good. Good luck xx

The anxiety is awful. The same thing happened to me at the early scan 3 times as well. Always bad news. Fast forward to our last shot with our final embryo and finally good news after all that heartache. Little one is 4 months old now.

Good luck I hope for you it's 4th time lucky like it was for us. Also I understand about the scans I had to go alone and was petrified. I booked some private ones in between the nhs ones so husband could come.

Wishing you all the luck in the world, stay strong and try to be positive until told otherwise 🤞🏻🍀 xx
