Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi!! I am going through the same thing, had an ultrasound on 1/12 I am 8 weeks pregnant, the baby is measuring 6 to 7 weeks, gestational sack, yolk sack and fetal pole seen but no heart beat. the Doc was not going to order blood work for me either, just another ultrasound next week. I told him I could not wait a week and requested blood work to be done. I have my second set of bloods drawn tomorrow. I have heard from several people that they didnt hear their babys heart beat till 8 - 9 weeks. has anyone ever been sure of there dates and when the ultra sound was done showed a baby less gestional weeks than thought ? Mischelle my thoughts and prayers are with you. you might want to call your doctor and request hcg levels to be drawn. good luck!!!

the same thing is happening to me i went to the doc on 1/12/05 and i go back to day im so scared.my prayers are with you.

I had my ultrasound today. My doctor called me three hours later to tell that this pregnancy is not progressing. She asked me what I wanted to do next. I told her I wanted another u/a next week. She agreed but said that she would go ahead and schedule the d/c for the following day. I hope and pray the rest of you have happier news.

well here is my update, I had my second set of bloods drawn showing a small decrease in the hcg levels and I had my follow up ultra sound showing the baby was not growing. Now I have to deciede if I want to go for a d&c. I have had no bleeding just alot of cramping and contractions. Alls I can say is it has been the longest week of my life. But now that I know for sure what is happening I feel a little less stressed. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone.

The first ultrasound I had I was like 13 weeks and I heard the heartbeat, saw the heartbeat and the baby, and got great pictures. Good luck, let us know what happens!

Don'd dispair...Trust in God! He will take care of you.
