LMP oct 23 had some brown spotting very early on until about one week ago.
This is My first pregnancy and due to spotting (never heavy enough to fill a pad) my Dr still scheduled me for an ultrasound and blood work which came back at ~8000 which seemed to correspond to week of gestation at the time. I went for first ultrasound on Thursday where I knew things weren’t normal since my tech barely spoke a word or showed my any images. I know their scope of work doesn’t allow them to confirm anything but the silence and coldness when asked questions was an indicator fr me. I wasn’t offered any printed images. I had hopes things would be ok because of the hcg levels one week prior. My doctor called a few hours after my scan saying things didn’t look great but the spotting I had could of been likely to to the perigestational hemorrhage. Gestational sac measuring 1.5 which corresponds to 6w2d. Embryo crown rump length : 0.3 which measures 5 w 6 days however no heartbeat. She sent me for another blood test (levels are not declining as of yet) which came back 34000 and I go for f/u US next week to see if there is any growth and to detect a heartbeat.
I have been preparing myself of confirming of miscarriage. I just wanted to see if there is anything looking positive here. I’m struggling waiting until thurs. I guess I am fortunate my dr ordered an early scan. I wasn’t scheduled for my first visit until 10 weeks so I can’t imagine thinking all that time things are going fine since many have mentioned not to really worry about light spotting.
Thanks for any feedback or similar experiences- good or bad. My husband is the only one who knows so appreciate this forum.
