Pregnancy Info HOME

Wow!! i am so glad i found this site! I have a similar case to u guys. I found i was pregnant at 4 weeks according to my LMP but i also know i was only 12 days since the day i conceived not even 2 weeks yet. At week 6 since my LMP i was cramping really bad and went to the emergency room to see what was wrong. The pain went away within an hour. but i got blood work done and i also had a vaginal ultrasound. My bloodwork came back good and my HCG level was 6995. I also got checked by my doctor whom was on call that day and he said my uterus was good and growing and that everything seemed fine. But when it came to the ultrasound they didnt see anything, and was told it was probably too soon to detect anything i was on the early stage of pregnacy. I was told to follow up on 3 days later so i did. i saw my doctor he checked me and said everything was fine, he just wanted to do more blood work to make sure my HCG level is progressing properly. I went back on thursday for my results and he said my HCG level just made it enough to be considered normal so he wanted to do another blood test and wanted me to go for another ultrasound that same day and come back the following day for results. At the ultrasound the technician saw a sack but no heart beat and no baby. The following day, which was last friday my doctor told me that as he checked me it seemed to be going fine in my uterus but he's not sure whats going on and why they havent been able to see a baby. Also he read to me my HCG level and i was told it only went from 9000 to 10000. and that was not normal, he said i could be having an early miscarriage, he said he wants me to do another ultrasound today and more bloodwork to finalise what he thinks. He says my HCG should've doubled and it was no where near that. I am just wondering what are my chances of loosing my baby, since he siad it might've never became a baby just that the egg reached the uterus but never became an embryo. I am very concerned and i was wondering if i sitll have a chance. I am now 8 weeks since my LMP but only 6 weeks since i conceived. Please help if there are any suggestions from anyone.. should i get another second opinion/ my doctor doesnt seem bad he seems very nice and carring and if my results come bak the same today as before i will need a DNC done... PLEASE HELP!
