Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi all, I have bad news from the ultrasound scan this morning. It showed an empty sac that only measured 9mm and at only 4 wks, I should be at 8.5 wks by now. My hubby (a dr.) was with me and the scan does clearly showed that it is not a viable pregnancy. Spoke to my sis-in-law (practising in family planning medicine) who thinks that abnormal rise in blood levels signals pregnancy abnormalty and even if there is heartbeat,etc, there is a possibility of miscarrying later on. Although the blood levels over the week rose up to 57478, my last blood draw on Monday started to drop to 57100. Therefore, the various tests and results do seem consistent that this is not a viable pregnancy. I was given pills to miscarry as the gynae felt that 4 weeks sac is too small to do D&C and if it is missed, there will be greater problems in future. So, this is my unfortunate story. Thank you all for your concern and please do not let my misfortune scares you, I am just a very unlucky girl. I am alright after a whole night's cry, at least I know what is happening now rather than be kept in suspense. Wish everyone the best of luck!
