    Hi Lovely ladies

    I am officially confused now after my 2nd scan. Some of you may remember that I had a scan last week and by my reckoning I would have been 8 + 6 however the sonographer couldn't find a heartbeat and only measured me at 5/6 weeks. I was asked to come back in a week's time but I was pretty sure it was game over for this PG.

    I went today and have been scanned again but this time the scan showed that the fetal pole has grown but still no heart beat so I have to go back in a week's time for another scan.

    Now I know that my dates are right as we all religiously chart our days so how on earth can the fetal pole continue to grow when the 'baby' apparently died at 5/6 weeks????????

    I've tried google and got nowhere. The nurses were lovely but were so non committal and just wouldn't give me a straight answer. They kept going on about protocol's which I'm fully aware of as I have a degree in Law and studied medical law. I want cold hard scientific facts!!!!!!!!

    I'm now in limbo again for another week and really don't know if my sanity can cope.

    Does anyone out there have any idea as to what is going on with my rubbish body??????

    Ellie

    P.S sorry for non PMA but I'm in bits here
  • Ellibobs could it be that it implanted late and so you might not be as far along as you think!?:confused:
    I googled too:o and have come up with blighted ovum and it's too early, the other possibility is you have a sneaky little beggar on board have a look here sounds like you're not the only one who's been/going through this:)

    Have you asked for a blood test to check your HCG levels?? If you're still pg they should be increasing

    QQuaver- what pills were you given? Cramps seem to be worse when i go for a wee and push down.....i havent needed to do a no2 yet but not looking forward to it!
    Don't know the name, it was for reducing the size of the womb to the normal size. Baby died at 10 weeks, had erpc at 11 weeks.
    Take care, it'll be over soon:wink:

    We definately want a baby, don't get me wrong, but ever since the m/c back in October we haven't been able to dtd as I've had 2 ops, some nasty tablets and STILL haven't stopped bleeding!! Don't think DH wants to come anywhere near me, and I don't blame him!!! smiley-shocked003.gif smiley-shocked016.gif smiley-shocked034.gif
    Take care, I think I know how you feel, I had missed m/c & erpc back in Aug.:)
    DH wanted to BD asap in my case though, his way of coping I guess:o

    Hi Ladies sending hugs to all those in need which does appear to be most of us at the moment :A

    I am feeling very odd today ............I know FUZZ would shout at me for SSing but i feel ODD :o

    I HATE the 2WW so much :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    I just know that it hasn't happened.........Not good PMA sorry :o we did BD for the fertile 5 days I had bunnies....& I know it only takes one!!! ................

    I am not in a good place at the moment and even said to DH that maybe we should just stop TTC as it was driving me MAD. It seems to be the hardest thing in the world to stay calm & not worry about everything....

    Sorry ladies ..............:o:o
    If you can think it........it will happen
