Hey, 5+6 is still reeeeeally early !My doctor didnt want to see me before 6 weeks and even at 6 weeks its early.
Please stay positive and go back for the 2nd scan, praying the heartbeat is beautiful for you!
Thank you .. i know it’s early and tbh i did not want to do it if it wasnt for the pain i was in cz i knew i would give myself anxiety i didn’t need but as much as im reading all these blighted ovum , mmc stories im panicking myself
Thank you .. hope you have a peaceful pregnancy and delivery 💕i hope so i knew it was early and i would worry myself ( not that i worry over every little thing ) i just want to make sure there is a yolk sac like i am seeing as the stories i read about blighted ovum snd mmc are horrific !
Thanks!! I’m praying all will be well, I can’t relax really know what we and slot of people in this forum go through!
I know where you’re coming from about MMC or blighted ovum, I don’t think you’ll be the first or last to worry about that, I know I did!
The good thing is you have a yolk sac in the right place, so that’s a start!
Just take eat step at a time work towards your next milestone, so if it’s a scan next week and everything’s progressing work onto the next milestone
I discussed miscarriage with my midwife in my first appointment and she said that every day that goes by your risk is reducing, which gave me a goal to keep working to
Oh that’s reassuring ! Thank you ... you know after this long journey we can’t control the anxiety especially my boobs were super sore and tender it’s been 2 days they are better and i’m less bloated so it kinda freaked me out more
My Fertility Specialist won't scan under 6 weeks and 3 days (i think it was) for that exact reason. Said it can cause too much unnecessary stress when a heartbeat is not heard (cos it can be too early).
I am now 8 weeks and that stress and worry doesn't leave you after you see the heartbeat! 😅 I really wish it did! But for me, the worry about MMC NEVER ends! It's because we've been on such a long journey to get our BFP that we understand how fragile pregnancy is 😬 I am finding the waiting between milestones far worse than the 2WW! 😒 But I really do try to take comfort from the fact that each day you get through means your odds of miscarriage go down and your odds of a normal pregnancy go up! Ultimately, right now, you are more likely to have a baby than miscarry! I really try to focus on that and it can sometimes make me feel better! My symptoms also fluctuate a bit. I'm currently not as bloated or full as I was a few days ago (which worries me) but I still have all day nausea and veins all over my boobs! A couple weeks back my nausea lessened and so did my sore boobs...but then it came back! I'm told this symptom fluctuation is VERY normal! I know how worrying it is (because I'm right here with you!) But take comfort that many women experience this! Biggest hugs and baby dust! Xx
Thank you so much for these comforting words .. i thought the 2ww is hard this wait for every scan is pure torture ! I hope you deliver a beautiful healthy baby 💕
I also had to have a check up at 5 weeks as I started spotting... I spotted almost every day so I would not worry about that, apparently it is quite common. It is only just starting being more sporadic now and I am almost 11 weeks. Regarding your scan it is still very early and everyone is different so I think is better not to compare yourself with other women, everybody’s embryo implants at different time and every pregnancy is different. I think it is best to try to relax and be positive x
I wish you the best of luck for your second scan, hopefully you will see a heartbeat and will be able to relax more, although that was not the case for me... the worrying never leaves me unfortunately 😌
Thank you .. you are so right and we thought the 2ww was the only struggle 😅
This happened to me pretty much the same term. I was so worried but it's just too early to see any more than that so I rebooked for 7 and a half weeks and thank god all was OK. Its an agonising wait I know x
Don’t worry don’t panick, you are early. I mean looking at your scan image I would guess-timate 5+ weeks gestation. Give it a week or two and there will be a little miracle 🥰
