I will never again get an ultrasound before 8 wks. And if you have had a previous c-section (me!) or a tilted uterus or something else, it can make it super hard to get a clear image. The ultrasound tech said that they should never schedule anyone before 7 or 8 wks because this happens all of the time. I went back a week later for a follow-up ultrasound at 7 wks 4 days and we instantly saw the baby and a beautiful flicker of a heartbeat. Having had a blighted ovum before, I assumed it was happening again and basically came to terms with having another miscarriage. I was measuring a week behind and they could not see the baby or a heartbeat. I went in for an ultrasound at 6 wks 5 days. Does anyone have any thoughts on any of this? I go back for another ultrasound a week from Friday - do you think I might see a heartbeat? After doing some reading, I have discovered that my levels are higher than normal for 6 weeks. On Friday (when baby measured 6w1d), my level was 88,000 and on Monday my level was 128,000 (so my doubling time is 133 hrs, which is appropriate for my high levels). She said everything else looked fine, but they sent me to get betas done to make sure things looked okay. Since I haven't had any spotting since then, I am trying to not worry about it (I have been having a lot of discharge though since becoming pregnant, but I figure it's normal).ĭuring the ultrasound, she said that baby measured 6w1d, which is pretty much what I expected based on my ovulation day. I thought it was strange to say not to worry about it, but according to her it was not alarming.
The nurse midwife mentioned that my cervix looked slightly open, but not to worry about it as it was only slightly. Fearing the worst, I went in for a transvaginal ultrasound on Friday. I am currently 6w6d pregnant, and last week I had a very tiny bit of spotting.
