I went in to have my first u/s on 2/12. I believed that I was 9wks,1day by my LMP, of which I am sure of. The u/s tech said that she saw a yolk sac , and that the size of it dated the growth at about 5wks,4days. My hcg # (from 1 week prior) were 19,000. I told the tech that I was really confused as I know when my LMT was and this was a planned pregnancy. My cycles are regular and last between 24-28 days (never longer) and I have only missed one period (not due to pregnancy) in the 24 years I have had my period. I took a pregnancy test when I was late for my period (about day 30) and it was positive. I have a healthy 21/2 year old girl with my first pregnancy (no complications at all and pregnant on the first attempt) and one miscarriage that happened last year at about 6 weeks (also pregnant on the first attempt) that I dispelled naturally but was away on vacation so not really sure why , my dr said when I returned that it was most likely a blighted ovum...and now at age 35 I became pregnant on the first attempt again...no spotting and I have been holding my breath for 9 weeks already only to get this confusing u/s results. This is not just a case of mis-dating (as were talking a difference of 3wks plus), and I'm not sure if there was a fetal pole or hb at the u/s. The tech showed my results to my dr and the response that was relayed was just to come back in 1-2 weeks for another u/s. NO mention of a possible miscarriage, but how can I not come to that conclusion if I think that my baby should be 9 wks developed and it is only at 5wks, 4days. Something has to be wrong and I'm going a bit crazy...I just don;t get it....anyone who has some input would really help.
