i just found out i am pregnant, should be nearly 8 weeks, had loads of blood tests as hcg was low, i had a scan today, they say im only about 5-6 weeks, on the scan was the sac and yolk, where is my baby? i had a scan with my 1st wee boy at 5 weeks 1 day and we seen a heartbeat straight away,im so worried as i have already suffered a stillbirth and a miscarriage,they said to go bk in 2 weeks to see if it progresses.

Oh Poppy, I am praying that when you go back for another scan, there will be a wee bubba with a strong heartbeat. I had a similar experience expcept there was no yolk and no baby. I have had 3 mc's and sadly ended my pregnancy in May as my baby was fatally ill.

I am not of any help because my OB doesn't even see me until I am 10 weeks along wheyn they do the ultrasound vaginally. But I am hoping for the best for you!

When I was around 6 weeks pregnant I had an ultrasound because I was bleeding a little bit. They were unable to see a heartbeat. I had my HCG tested and it was doubling so a few days later I had another ultrasound and there was his heartbeat. Everything was fine until I was 23 weeks pregnant and his heart stopped.(Sorry I do not mean to scare you) My OB said that the HCG level has to be high (maybe 7000) before you can see the baby's heart beating. Good Luck

I had an early scan at 6 weeks because of bleeding and was told that I probably wouldn't see a heartbeat as it was too early. However the heart beat was going strong. So hopefully for you it is just a little early and maybe in a week or so it will be beating stong. Good luck xx

It is possible that you didn't see more because your dates are off. I wish you the best of luck!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
