Confused, Am I Having a Miscarriage? Posted: 08-27-07 17:40pm
Hello, I was wondering if anyone could
give me any advice........ I thought that
I was 711/2 weeks pregnant. I went to have
my first sono on August 23rd. The
sonographer asked me if I was sure of my
dates. I am 150% positive without a doubt.
He said that he saw a gestational sac and
yolk sac but no fetal poles. My HCG levels
on the 15th were 28,000. He asked me to
come back on August 27 for another sono. I
asked to see the doctor and I was told
that I would not be able to see him that
day. I went home to my husband in tears. I
lost the two previous pregnancies as well.
I just couldn't believe this was happening
again. I decided to gte a second opinion.
I went the very next day to a different
doctor. She did another sonogram and told
me that she didn't know what he was
talking about that she could def. see
fetal poles and maybe a heart beat. SHe
said that she couldn't promise that it was
viable. She also checked my HCG levels
that day and they were 60,000. She told me
that the baby measured at 6 weeks. This
just can't be..... I know without a doubt
that my dates are correct. She wants to do
another sono tomorrow to see if the baby
has grown any. Does anyone have any info?
I am so confused. Did the baby maybe stop
developing at six weeks. I know I have to
be further along. Why are my HCG levels so
high?

Your hcg numbers are going up, so that is
a good sign. Another good sign is that
they can see the baby.
I know it is difficult, but please don't
worry about things that you can do nothing
about right now.
You might be sure of your period dates,
but were you testing for ovulation as
well? You may have ovulated later than you
think you did.
Hang on! Good luck!

Thank You Ingi Posted: 08-27-07 18:04pm
I am going to take your advice and try not
to worry. It is just so consuming.
