2nd Trimester

Anyone's baby measure behind in the first tri?

January 2012 in 2nd Trimester

I had an u/s yesterday. I was supposed to be 7w5d, but all we saw was a yolk sac that is measuring 6w2d and a heartbeat couldn't be detected. The doc thinks I am going to miscarry. I had bloodwork done after the u/s and my progesterone is very low (only 8.8, which I know is not a good sign), but my HCG is 34,000.

I haven't had any cramping or bleeding and I can't shake the feeling that this is all just a big mistake and that everything is fine. I know that doesn't make sense given the facts, and maybe I am just in denial, but I am hoping for a miracle. I have a follow-up ultrasound scheduled for Wednesday and I am trying to stay positive.

Has anyone else experienced this and everything turned out to be fine?
