Bleeding at 5 weeks.

[Elfs Mummy]

I think the measurements are perfect for your dates x

Haha i just googled it. Not exactly how far along that puts me? Somewhere between 5 weeks and 6 weeks 1 day? I think.

Thank you. These early weeks are so stressful going to try and relax now xx

It is very stressful, I had a scare too at 6 weeks and went to epu for a scan, I’d had spotting and awful lower back ache, I burst into tears when they told me there was a heartbeat, that little dot flickering away on the screen is asleep on me right now and I still get emotional thinking about that moment! Getting to the 12 week scan just drags but I found I really started to get excited after that
Your measurements sound spot on too, they can be very inaccurate this early on anyway xx

Thank you all ladies.

Back from EPU. Good news.

Couldn't find a reason for the bleed.

Found the sac straight away measuring between 5/6 weks on the left side but all in the right place. Checked my ovaries apparently their not polycystic anymore, then she went back to embryo, and identified the yolk sak and also saw the heartbeat. Didn't measure heartbeat but could see it flickering away which they weren't expecting to see giving I was so early. Was warned before hand that I'd probably be back over the next few weeks to see what's happening but was informed after they saw heartbeat that they wouldnt be necessary and I'd be discharged back to GP. She said she couldn't see anything that would make her concerned and all looked normal. Although she did say I had a heart shaped uterus and was surprised that hadn't been picked up on all the previous scans I'd had for pcos.

Noticed in the scan report it says CRL=1.6mm? No idea what that means. Any ideas?

No need to go back unless I spot again in which case have to get referred through GP again.

My HCG was:

Friday 12pm: 3268
Sunday 10am: 5119

Hopefully wont have any more issues now.

Thanks for all your support ladies.

Oh god yeah google is the worst haha!

I know, I'd been thinking in my head would love a water birth but then read all this that it normally needs a c section and things.

Google is flipping scary haha. I'm going to try and not worry now and just wait until he 12 week scan. I was going to book a private one but having had one tuesday I'm going to try and wait now. Xx

Haha good advice.

I usually go with the flow with things but am also prone to really bad panic attacks. So just have to try and remain calm lol xx

Im the same i suffer really bad anxiety and panic attacks but since being pregnant its really helped me but saying that at 6 weeks pregnant it seems ages ago now even though its not i was nervous i think as the weeks go on u become more confortable and when u see the midwife and get ur notes that helps you will be fine promise it gets easier honestly you will get there EP is so hard once i started to get past 9 weeks i settled more Xxx
