6 wk u/s - no baby..anyone found a baby at a later u/s?
I had a 6 week scan last week, and nothing was found on the u/s. my OB pretty much said I'm too old to carry a pregnancy, and said i'd miscarried, and pretty much told me to call him back to get a D&C.
Obviously I was distraught as i had a mmc just 5 months ago. I've done a bit of research and found he shouldn't have made a diagnosis until I'd been scanned at 8 weeks or more I was very backed up (constipated tmi) and i have fibroids also which i have read can obscure the the view..
I still have all my symptoms too..I'm just wondering whether or not any of you ladies out there have gone through the same thing and found a baby at a later scan, or if you know of anyone who has?
I guess i'm just trying to find a glimmer of hope x

Hello,
It is possible not to be accurate so early, as a few days difference can make a big difference to seeing a baby or seeing nothing at all.
There is no danger to wait and see. Would recommend you don't do a D&C and ask for a repeat u/s in 2 weeks (or have blood work to test hormone levels). This should give you a better idea.

I did actually call them yesterday and asked for a second opinion. They vagreed to do an hcg test and a rescan next week.
I think ( from what I've read ) it was a bit too soon to diagnose a miscarriage being as i had full bowels and fibroids, plus wasn't 100% sure of dates.
Still having all symptoms, just threw up half an hour ago cooking hubbys dinner :)
Time will tell i guess x
