I am just looking to see if anyone has been in the same situation I am in and what there outcome was. Im 39 and I am pregnant for the second time this year, my first ended as a missed miscarriage. When I found out I was pregnant again I went to EPC at five weeks as was worried, at that scan all they could see was an empty sac so they took my hgc levels and i was on day 1 1800 day 3 2000 and day 5 2500 so although rising they werent doubling what they were suppose too so when i should be six weeks they did another scan and it showed the sac with a yolk but again slow growth as to what has been expected. A week later when i should be seven weeks the scan now shows a heartbeat and measure what a six week scan should be. I have not mixed up dates as my partner and I split up on the 22nd july and i ovulated around the 16th july and got a positive pregnancy test on the 29th july so i know my dates are right. Has anyone had a smiliar experience as i am just all over the place and expecting the worse and a repeat of what happened in March again. I had failed IVF in my twenties and was told I would never concieve but fourteen years later I have somehow concieved twice in eight months so miracles do happen but can ths pregnacy be viable when its growing too slow and my hgc levels arent rising as they should. Any stories whether positve or negative would be appreciated
 
We went for a private scan at 7 weeks with my son and he measured 5 weeks. By the time I got my 12 week scan he was measuring exactly where he should be. He was born healthy at 38 weeks weighing 5lb 11oz - they did loads of tests but in the end the consultant said to me because I'm small and didn't gain much weight throughout my pregnancy she wasn't expecting a big baby. He's now 2 reached all his milestones and has went from falling off the centile chart completely to being on the 75th centile, but still not as tall as his friends.

Hope this helps you feel a bit more positive. Good luck.
