Shit shit shit shit shit.
I went to the toilet to empty my bladder at 11:00am so I could then drink my 1 litre of water for the 12:00pm scan and there was some blood on the toilet paper.
I stared at it for ages cause I didnt believe what I was seeing. This morning I had myself convinced that this baby would be my take-home baby, that everything would be alright and then I was totally deflated.
I wiped a few times and it was just pale pink blood.
So I went to the scan anyway and told them what had happened.
When he put the ultrasound on my stomach he said he couldnt see anything in my womb at all. So then I was thinking great it must be an ectopic pregnancy or something. So then he did an internal ultrasound and you could see a very small sack - about 0.5cm long in my uterus. There was some tiny signs of a heartbeat but not enough to pick up a rythym. According to the measurements the gestational age is 5w 3d, but yet going by my menstrual cycle I should be 6w 3d. So something isnt adding up.
Also when I wiped after the scan there was some more darker blood and a very small looking clot.
So now I am totally freaking out that I am going to miscarry or there is something wrong with the baby.
I had to tell my boss what was going on and he has sent me home for this afternoon. Luckily it is the weekend now so I can rest up.
Basically they said that all we can do is wait now and let nature take its course. And have another scan in 2 weeks time and also have some blood tests to make sure the hormone levels are rising.
So I have an appointment at my GP tomorrrow morning to get that organised.
Keep your fingers crossed please that its all going to be ok.

I hope that everything is really ok and that's it's just a little 'normal' bleeding that some people have. I know you are worried about the dates but that could be ok too. When I was supposed to be 8 wks the baby was only measuring 6 wks.
