Fetus at 6 weeks : ok this is complicated but i had a scan today (it is 8 weeks since lmp and the doctor thinks my sac and fetus should measure at 6 weeks) they said that the sac was empty and that it is a blighted ovum. when i came home i was thinking about it and i think the dates are not right. this is how i worked it out. i last ovulated on feb 22nd(cd18) and assuming that it takes 5 days to implant which would take it to 27th feb then the fetus should be size of 5 weeks tomorrow, so i am asking a) does this

Fetus at 6 weeks : I recently had laparoscopy and have been TTC for over 3 years (since my last miscarriage in 2005) Finally, after extensive laparoscopy, 2 months later I am pregnant! Due to my history, the Dr. made me come in twice for labs (beta HCG) which are doubling as they should be. Today was my first US and the tech said everyting looked good and I am 6 weeks and 1 day, but after getting home I received a call that the radiologist looked over the results and said the heart rate is borderline low at 112B

Fetus at 6 weeks : I just got finished vacuuming. the vacuum was a little hard to push. Iâ??m 12 weeks pregnant. is this safe? also another question for mommy cat lovers... ok so I know about the disease they can spread to an unborn fetus. my boyfriend cleans the cat box out two times a day. but is it safe to pet them, play with them.... let them sleep in your bed? they are both indoor cats, clean and have shots. plus Iâ??ve been around cats my whole life, so Iâ??d think id be immune. also, the doctor told me t

Fetus at 6 weeks : I had a scan done this afternoon. Gestational sac was 27mm. Fetus measured 5mm Could see the heartbeat but he did not tell me rate - he said would do it at next scan in 2 weeks. Does this all sound as it should be for around 6.5 weeks?

Fetus at 6 weeks : doctor told me to wait for 1 week . am i still pregnant

Fetus at 6 weeks : Im around the 6/7 week mark according to my ultrasound, the nurses told my partner and I that they do not have to tell us everything at this stage but they would tell us as much as they could. They told me I was 6-7 weeks gone and the 'baby' was doing fine, but then they started talking among themselves and pointing out a grey area at the bottom of the sac, I could clearly see the original fetus and then just this grey fainter area they were discussing. They have asked me to come back in two w

Fetus at 6 weeks : I went and had my first ultra sound and the dr.s and I didn't see a heart beat.. What does that mean? Do I have a fetus or an empty sack? Well she did tell me that it just might be an empty sack & I might have a miscarriage. My next appointment is this Monday and I'm soo scared and nervous..

Fetus at 6 weeks : I was taking antidepressants for almost 8 years and was weened off of them last week. I was taking Effexor and Wellbutrin (both at maximum dosages). I have been feeling the "zaps" and feeling very moody. My Ob/GYN said that there is a very "slim" chance that if I do take the Antidepressants while I am pregnant that something can happen to the fetus. I also did research and read that it is more harmful for the mother to "STOP TAKING ANTIDEPRESSANTS IF SHE NEEDS THEM" than it is to the fetus. Ha

Fetus at 6 weeks : I have 2 questions... 1. What are the symptoms of a 3-6 week pregnancy. Is it too early to be throwing up. 2. What would happen if a women was to miscarry a 3-6 week fetus? Would she have to see the doctor or is it okay to assume the body took care of it?

Fetus at 6 weeks : depressed lately .. & told my OBGYN... she gave me 'scripts for ZOLOFT..but when I google it & pregnancy I get this Zoloft and Pregnancy: Third Trimester Concerns There have been reports of fetuses being exposed to Zoloft during the third trimester of pregnancy developing complications that require hospitalization, respiratory support, and/or tube feeding. These newborns experienced a number of symptoms, including: Difficulty breathing Seizures Lack of oxygen in the blood Feeding difficul

Fetus at 6 weeks : The doctor said that the baby is 6 weeks and 3 days old, but I have only known her for 5 weeks. Could the estimate be off by 2 weeks???

Fetus at 6 weeks : I got pregnant. I told my bf that he was the father of the fetus in my womb. He had a doubt about it. Because in our 6 years relation, I didnt get pregnant. It just a matter of time that I was caught cheating on him that I had sex with this muscular man. Now my wont believe in me. I was so sorry for the thing I had done. She is the one who took out my viginity and the muscular man is the second one. The relationship with that muscular man last for more than a month and I knew I hurt his (my s

Fetus at 6 weeks : At an ultrasound and consult regarding surgery for a full hysterectomy yesterday I found out that I was 6 weeks pregnant after just loosing twins in Sept. The chances of me going to term are slim to none since I have Endometriosis and a weak Cervix . I was taking the pill to prevent this however due to chance I am pregnant anyway. What would you do if you were faced with having to terminate a pregnancy that you really wanted. And would you give the "fetus" a unisex name ? I was told by my Dr

Fetus at 6 weeks : i had my period on the 8th of feb. and conceived on the 28th of feb. i am absolutely sure this is the day i conceived because my husband had been out of town on business, came home for a long weekend, and left again for work. i was not planning this pregnancy, although we are very happy, so i am scared that i was not taking multivitamins or folic acid...i am now. i guess my questions is, do i calculate how old the fetus is by the day of conception...which would be better because it wouldn

Fetus at 6 weeks : I am 6 weeks pregnant now and have always chewed gum. I chew alot of gum. I never thought to look at the ingredients until now and noticed that it had aspartme in it. Does anyone think that there could be something wrong with the fetus? I am really nervous, but I my appointment isnt until April 11th :(

Fetus at 6 weeks : I was carrying 2months - gestational sac was 8 weeks but the fetus was just 6 weeks with no heartbeat It was a missed abortion - i read about what a missed abortion is - still the causes are not known , am 37years old is there a chance of conceiveing a healthy baby , the first was also a misscarriage due to a luteal cyst haemmorhage Depressed ! Had a D & E done , and Doc said try again after 3 months What are the chances that i would conceive healthy again Am planing to use presee

Fetus at 6 weeks : I'm 6 week of pregnancy. Sometimes I forget clean my house without clorox or other chemical. Can this hurt the fetus? What can it hapen?

Fetus at 6 weeks : I just found out that I am about 5-6 weeks pregnant. I have done some research on the effects to the unborn fetus, and it says usually the scan doesn't harm the fetus? Is this true? Can their be any other problems or effects that all the radations will have on my unborn fetus? Can anyone help me find some anwsers ?

Fetus at 6 weeks : Does the first u/s pic look closer to 6 weeks or 10 weeks. And does the second look closer to 11 weeks or to 15 weeks? I truly believe that they are 6 and 10 weeks but now there has been a question as to how far along I am. Isn't it impossible for the first pic to be of a 10 week old fetus and the second pic to be of a 15 week old fetus. I mean wouldn't there be very, very obvious differences between the weeks in question? On the second pic you'll see that the CRL was measured. That is s

Fetus at 6 weeks : Okay. I just found out I am pregnant! Yay! I ovulated two weeks ago, so I figured that I was 4 weeks pregnant. I went to the doc today for some testing because I have had two miscarriages in the past and she asked me when my last menstrual period was. I told her Jan. 26 ( I ovulated two weeks late). She told me I was 6 weeks pregnant??!! I would be very happy to already be 6 weeks pregnant, but I don't understand that at all? She told me that if I had an ultrasound today my baby (fetus/whateve

Fetus at 6 weeks : I went to the doctor this week to hear that I possibly have a blighted ovum. However, I need to go back in 2 weeks to get another u/s done to confirm. According to the ultra sound it states: intra-uterine gestational sac. Sac size corresponds to 5 weeks 6 days. No fetal pole. There is a yolk sac in place measuring 8 mm. The yolk sac is larger than one would normally see and this is suspicious for a blighted ovum. Suggest follow up study in 1 to 2 weeks. According to the doctor based on

Fetus at 6 weeks : Hi guys, I have been getting really excited about my baby bean lately, and I have been looking up ultrasound photos on the Internet to see what my baby might look like when we have our genetic testing ultrasound done in 3 weeks. During this process, I've noticed that my uterus looks REALLY large as compared to other people's. In fact, we originally thought I was 9 weeks pregnant at my first appointment and the doc said my uterus felt consistent with that. But, we found a 6 week fetus. Aft

Fetus at 6 weeks : What are the noticable differences between an ultrasound of a 6 week old fetus and a 11 week old fetus? What are the noticable differences between a fetus at 11 weeks and 16 weeks? Are the differences fairly obvious or can one be mistaken for the other?

Fetus at 6 weeks : I need some advice. I went for a private dating scan when I believed I was 9 weeks but I measured at just 6 weeks 4 days. There was a gestational sac and a yolk sac but nothing else. My dates are highly probably wrong as I have just come off the pill and my cycle is irregular. I went back 1 week later for a follow up scan and there was now a 4.9mm fetal pole. However my gestational sac had not grown very much and there was no heartbeat. My GP referred me to the hospital where they refuse

Fetus at 6 weeks : i am 6 weeks pregnant and went to the ER as i was spotting... they took me for an ultrasound and the lady was showing the baby and the heart beat... but after the DR got the results he said the fetuses heartbeat was slowing, he was concerned but the 2nd dr said they can't say that as in early pregnancy it drops and speeds up all the time... i have a follow up u/s tomorrow but neither DR explained what any of it mean't as the spotting isn't painful

Fetus at 6 weeks : Okay, so a couple of days ago I was using the bathroom when I noticed a small spot of brownish blood in my underwear. I talked to my mother and she said some spotting is normal. The thing is, since then, it's gotten progressively worse...I went to the E.R. yesterday because I was worried when the bleeding continued. My cervix was closed, they did an ultrasound and saw nothing but the sac--no fetus at 6 weeks. They told me it was "too early to see much". Today the blood has gone from brownish

Fetus at 6 weeks : My last period was 1/18/08. On 2/8/08 I had a negative pregnancy result. On 2/16/08 I was positive. So I got pregnant between the 8th and 15th. I am thinking that I am only going on three weeks pregnant and that my OB should not look at my last period. He only saw a sac and yolk and no fetus. OB wants to do another ultrasound 3/6/08, tomorrow. I have a feeling that he still wont see a fetus. Too soon in my opinion. I have nausea all day long and am very fatigue. How far along do you

Fetus at 6 weeks : Just need to get this off my chest. I am 8 weeks 1 day with #1, and I have this irrational fear of miscarriage. I know it's normal, but mine has been bad. I think it's because I've been through a lot with this pregnancy so far. I was diagnosed with BV at 4 weeks and had to get it cured because the symptoms were too bad. Then, when I went for my first prenatal exam at what we thought was 9 weeks, we found a 6 week fetus with a slightly slow heartbeat. After a LONG week that brought a disc

Fetus at 6 weeks : My sister has irregular cycles, so when she found out she was pregnant a sono was done and the doc determined that she was 8 weeks pregnant, but just a hair smaller then expected so maybe 7 weeks 5-6 days. Today, exactly a week later the baby measures 8 weeks 3-4 days. This tells ME the baby is not growing as expected. My sister has miscarried 5 times and finally had a live birth less then two years ago. Given her history should we be extra concerned? Anybody out there experience this? Could

Fetus at 6 weeks : I had a D&E 6 days ago as the fetus had died at 9 weeks. Since Thursday, I have had moderate to light bleeding and now it has nearly completely stopped. For the past couple of days, I have had sore breasts, do you think that I'm ovulating already? Or is this the pregnancy symptoms fading? Also, how do you know when you're ovulating after having a miscarriage? I just asked this in the trying to conceive section and didn't get much response so I thought I would try and ask you guys in the pregna

Fetus at 6 weeks : Local sewage plant workers found a small fetus in the waste water at a central treatment plant in the city near where I live. It was between 3 and 6 months along. Think it was "flushed" on purpose, or was it an accidental thing, like that woman in India who gave birth last week in a trian toilet and the baby fell out on the tracks? (That second baby survived, btw) India story http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/02/28/india.baby.ap/index.html

Fetus at 6 weeks : I know the babys heart begins to beat in the 5th week http://www.babycenter.com/6_your-pregnancy-5-weeks_1094.bc?intcmp=Nav_Global_MyBC_Stagepage Why dont I get to hear it until the 11th or 12th week? Is it too small to hear at 5 weeks? Does it have anything to do with that around that time the baby is considered a fetus instead of an embryo? Thanks!!

Fetus at 6 weeks : Hello. My last cycle was 12/22/07. i was due to come on 01/17/08. The test showed positive. i dont know what to think. i went to the obgyn on 01/15. everything was fine and i was 8 weeks. went back 01/22 for ultra sound. we saw the sac but there was no embryo/fetus inside. the sac was measured and i was only 6 weeks and the sac was where it should be. she said 50/50 chance of a miscarriage. i took blood test for the hormone levels on 1/22 and 01/25. the nurse called me because my levels droppe

Fetus at 6 weeks : This is my 2nd pregnancy. With my son I experienced heavy bleeding early on and was sure I was miscarrying. I carried him to term. I was under the impression that my HCG levels would be much lower had the sack already detached from the uterine wall?? I guess I feel like I should have experienced intense cramping and heavy bleeding with an almost 11 week fetus trying to make it's way out of my body?? The ER doctor was not very informative on what to expect so I would like to hear other op

Fetus at 6 weeks : Sadly this is my 3rd miscarriage. The first two were before 6 weeks. This one is a bit different. The fetus died at 8 weeks but my body still thinks I'm pregnant, its called a missed miscarriage. I had the options of the pill that will make me officially miscarry the dead fetus, a d&c, or just wait. I chose to wait it out, but I'm not sure if this was the best choice. I know for sure that the baby is dead b.c I'm suppose to be 10 weeks pregnant, but the baby measures 8 weeks and has no heartbe

Fetus at 6 weeks : My doctor ordered a blood test Monday and a blood test today to check my HCG levels because according to the date of my last period, I should be 9 weeks pregnant. However, I wondered if I ovulated late because of CM during that time and later because I didn't have a positive HPT until I was 3 1/2 weeks late (+ was 3 days after a - blood test, BTW). When we did a transvaginal ultrasound, we found a fetus that looked about 6 weeks old. Saw a heartbeat, but the doc said it looked just a tad slow

Fetus at 6 weeks : Before I realized I was pregnant (I was about 6 weeks along when I found out), I smoked weed fairly regularly and had recently made and eaten pot brownies. When I found out, I stopped smoking (and eating) pot, but I'm curious as to the effects (or lack thereof) that early prenatal marijuana exposure could have on a fetus. Does anyone have reliable information regarding this? I also know several people who have chosen to smoke pot throughout their entire pregnancies. Has anyone else done th

Fetus at 6 weeks : My husband and I went for our first prenatal exam yesterday. Based on my dates, we thought I was going to be about 9 weeks pregnant. However, I had a feeling I may be 1-2 weeks earlier than that I because I suspected that I ovulated late. When we did a transvaginal ultrasound, we found a fetus that looked about 6w old. My doc ordered a blood draw that day and one for tomorrow so she could compare my levels and see if they were rising like they should. BTW, a 6w fetus is not impossible-- it

Fetus at 6 weeks : When i found out i was pregnant i went to an E.R. in texas and they told me that I had a large uterus & that i was only 3.5weeks pregnant. The u/s showed a sac and no embryo. 1week later i went an e.r. in Indiana for lil discharge and they told me that i was 6.5 weeks pregnant and still no embryo was visible. My hcg levels were shooting up and were really high and all my test were +. 2weeks after that i had another u/s and still the same-no fetus, but they didnt check my hcg levels. Im so conf
