6 weeks scan measuring 5 days behind ivf

[Adav89]

Hia guys just looking for someone to talk to

I went for an early scan yesterday due to some cramping, I am meant to be 6 weeks (ivf frozen transfer) but I’m measuring only 5weeks 2 days, they said my sac was measuring fine no yolk sac seen yest they said it’s to early and I’m going back next week for another scan I just can’t help but worry 😫 I’ve had 2 ectopic pregnancies which resulted in me having both my tubes removed so I’m just used to the bad news I can’t even think this is going to be a positive outcome and I’m really struggling 😢

Sorry to hear about your past experiences, don't worry just yet (I know I know it's easier said than done). When I was pregnant they were changing my dates a couple of times up and down depending on the size....it always drove me crazy....which means that it is important the checks and seeing that there is a progression....

I am concern when I get pregnant again because i have thyroid issues and the placenta previously.

So this time I am planning to be a pain in the a** if I have to and do triple checks.

thank you for the reply mamma Mia 😊it’s just awful when all your used to is bad news, suppose to enjoy the journey all I’ve done is worry 🙈 they did say I was difficult to scan also which again worried me as I never had that problem! Sending you lots of love on your next cycle ❤️

I know what you mean.... unfortunately during my pregnancy I only received bad news.... it is all very overwhelming.

I think that we get so focus on getting pregnant that sometimes we forget that pregnancies can have complications too.

Try to stay as calm as possible😘

hey I had my 7 week scan with a frozen embryo and it was measuring a week behind although there was a heartbeat , we got a private scan at 10 weeks and baby was measuring exactly what it should be , we just got our 12 week scan and baby was measuring 13 weeks 3 days ! So please try not to worry the early scans are not exact and can me out quite significantly , try not to worry ( I know it’s not easy ). Sending positive vibes to you 🫶

just an update went to my Ivf clinic for a scan meant to be 7w 4d measuring 6w2days everything was there still and a strong heartbeat but won’t know until next week, she did say my yolk sac is measuring a bit bigger too 😢 another whole week of worry now 😞xx

[Adav89]

Thank you for your reply and this is reassuring they said my womb was in a funny position Aswell so I was difficult to scan, I feel a bit more relaxed today but obviously still cautious ❤️ Wishing you all the luck with the rest of your pregnancy xx

Hi I think I replied to you on a different post, measurements at this stage are not accurate there is an error margin of 1.2 weeks either way. The cramping could just be your uterus starting to expand. I had period like cramping on and off for most of pregnancy it started in the 2 ww for me and all was fine. Try not to worry (easier said than done I know) x

[Adav89]

that’s ok still really reassuring it’s people like you with the experience of these experiences we reply on of course I’m a little worried but I do feel so much more relaxed so thank you so much ❤️Xx

[Adav89]

when I zoom in I think I can see the start of a yolk sac can you guys?

my clinic didn’t scan until 7+ at the earliest for this reason, extra anxiety when there could be no reason for it. Lots of hugs for the next week of waiting xxx

[Adav89 in reply to HollyT7]

I know it’s an agonising wait but I was having cramps and got history of ectopics so there epu decided it was safer to scan me I do kind of wish I waited now though 🙈thank you ❤️Xx

[Adav89]

just had my scan and baby was found and a heartbeat couldn’t get accurate measurements due to my uterus position but I feel much happier today ❤️X

Hi Adav89, that's great news 🥰 I had my scan y'day and was measuring 6 weeks 1 day, I should be 6 weeks 6 days. I have to go back for another scan next week but I am so afraid this is it. How are you going now? xx

[Adav89 in reply to Ker-bear]

Hia hun, not good news for me unfortunately, I was told 5 weeks ago today that the heartbeat was weak and hasn’t grown so I will have a miscarriage 4 weeks today I’ve been bleeding and the scan on Tuesday showed the pregnancy has moved into my cervix and is stuck there I’m going to see the consultant today to see how they are going to remove it, I hope everything works out fine for you and only being a few days behind is not always a bad sign ❤️Xx

[Ker-bear]

Awwww Adav89 I am so so sorry, that is just heartbreaking to hear 💔 Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me. I really hope better things come to you ❤️❣️ xx

[Adav89 in reply to Ker-bear]

[Ker-bear in reply to Adav89]
