Mistakenly told at 8 weeks to expect miscarriage.

[Isabel]

Hi guys,

I just want to let you all know my story before tomorrow. My husband and I got married almost 4 years ago and were keen to have kids straight away, when I was diagnoised with have PCOS. That wasn't too bad because I managed to get pregnant using Metformin and we have a beautiful baby girl who is 13 months old now.

I decided that because it took a while the first time, that we wouldn't wait around the second time and I became pregnant but had a miscarriage last December. I am now pregnant again but I went for an 8 weeks scan 2 weeks ago and the Midwife told me not to get too excited. She said that although there was a heartbeat there that the feotus didn't seem to be developing at all. She told me that I would probably miscarry within the next two weeks.

I was obviously very upset and have spent the last two weeks running to the loo every few minutes to check if I was bleeding and every little pain I get in my tummy I've been thinkning to myself....this is it starting. But so far so good, nothing has happened yet.

I'm back into the hospital tomorrow for another scan to see how things are going and I am just so nervous, this site has given me the hope that maybe all will be well, but hopefully tomorrow I will know one way or the other. The waiting and not knowing is just so difficult.

I'll let you all know how I get on tomorrow.

Great news everyone, I'm just back from my scan and all is fine. Baba is perfect. They have put me back a week and a half so I am only 8 weeks 2 days now, but she said that everything was developing perfectly. The longest two weeks of my life are over and all the worry was for nothing. If it wasn't for this website, I would have totally lost my mind.

Thanks

I have just seen your post, and I cant believe what they told you how insensitive, I wonder what made them think that the fetus wasnt developing correctly. Wow that makes me mad. Did you have your HCG levels checked??? what were they????
