Pregnancy Info HOME

My situation is a little bit different, but we will see if anything comes of this. I got pregnant on or around April 12th 2011 around week 6 of this pregnancy the fetus quit developing however I carried the little bean for a good while the entire time thinking I was still pregnant. I had s_x with my husband on June 24th and then had the miscarriage of our fist pregnancy on June 26th. I began to have pregnancy symptoms again around August 2nd and took a test that was positive. I was over the moon!! So happy! I assumed the baby was conceived on July 10th and that I was 6 weeks exactly when I went for my first ultra sound. Turns out the baby measured 7 weeks and 5 days at that time, this was three days ago on Wednesday August 15th. That would mean that today I am 8 weeks and 1 day along. 8 weeks and one day ago was June 24th, two days before I miscarried our first pregnancy. IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE????? Can you be carrying and still get pregnant? At first I thought surely I am only 6 weeks along and the baby is just developing faster than normal, but I am beginning to have my doubts. I am also concerned because I drank heavily due to the tremendous loss I was feeling at the time, good god I hope this little guy IS just a faster developer. At my first U/S we couldn't see the heartbeat, but I am having my blood taken every other day to test for hormone level growth, and I go back this next Wed. for another U/S and I am praying all is well.
