Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi Tricia,
I think never give up hope in the early days, there have been many success stories with progesterone supplements. What I have learnt is that between the 5-6 week mark it is probably the 'greyest' of areas in regards to what can -cannot be seen on U/S and dates may also be wrongfrom when you ovulated. Like you my HCG levels have only been crawling up, my breasts are not sore at all anymore, and I am not as nauseas either, no bleeding at all. I came back from my 2nd U/S today and there was a fetal pole (no visible heart beat but looked like something was moving maybe trying to form a heart). I went today not expecting to see anything, more likely to book in for a D&C. Although there is a glimmer of hope I am still very doubtful because my HCG levels are not doing what they should be (had another test today) and will have one more Thursday. It is a difficult emotional rollercoaster, like you I am 35 this year, my next option is IVF. I am not going to give up yet though, miricles do happen and up until today I was positive I had a blighted ovum and that is not the case. I send you all the support in the world - keep me posted!
