Warning - sad post
Hi ladies - I am an ivf veteran who VERY unexpectedly got a + pregnancy test on May 25 two days after I expected for my third post partum period to show up. On Wednesday of this week, I went in for a dating ultrasound expecting to be right around eight weeks, but my scan is showing a gestational sac, yolk sac and embryo that looks closer to five weeks. No heartbeat yet detected.
I feel mathematically that it is impossible for me to be only five-ish weeks if I got a positive test May 25. I am sadly anticipating the worst and expect to miscarry on my own or have a D&C following my second (likely confirmatory) ultrasound next week. Looks like my body has just not recognized the non viability of this conception yet
I asked the doc to do my hcg levels and my first result came in today (9380 which is allegedly right around what they would expect for what age my ultrasound showed). Hopefully on Saturday the second hcg will provide additional info.
I guess what I'm looking for here are some words of encouragement or support if you can. Feeling very blue about it and am assuming that the worst is likely but still also hoping that maybe there is a chance? Maybe??? Ugh. I wasn't tracking or anything so I have no clue when I ovulated. Thank you so much. Xoxo
