Hi everyone so on the 6th November I bled and had a chemical pregnancy a few weeks later I found out I was pregnant. I’m currently 5 weeks and 2 days and have started bleeding with clots and slight cramping. The care unit can’t scan me until 7 weeks to see if there is a baby there I’m going out of my mind 😭

Thankyou 💔

I’m sorry you’re going through this. Is there somewhere else you can go that can help? Can you go to another place and just tell them your 7 weeks.

Usually private scan places will do viability scans, maybe ring one near you and ask if they can help? I had a scan at 6 weeks at a private place. Sending you hugs x

I suggested that to the midwife and she said because I’m so early it won’t be seeable on the screen just yet :( longest wait of my life xx

I’ve had one at 5 weeks (dates were out by 9days not intentionally that early) and all
We saw was a dot. It didn’t help at all.
I’m sorry you’re going though this x

@Madison typically a Heartbeat doesn't pick up on a scan until week 8, so I'm surprised they said 7 weeks.

We saw a hb at 6weeks exactly. 7 weeks is a good average time.

I'm so sorry best wishes to you

Oh so sorry 😢
Sending lots of hope and love ❤️

When I was 6 weeks pregnant I had heavy bleeding with clots! Went to the early pregnancy unit and found out it was a twin pregnancy and I was loosing the twin which is what caused the bleeding, I went on to have a beautiful healthy baby boy but sadly his little twin didn’t make it!

sorry to hear that. I’ve read a few cases like that so just just hoping that is the case ❤️🤞🏼

private places will scan you from 7 weeks x

I’ve got a scan at 7 weeks from the hospital I’ve just tested again and my HCG levels have gone down a lot :(

I went to A&E when this happened to me and they did blood tests to check
