Terrified for next ultrasound at 8w1d

JBo

We just had our first U/S this past Wednesday at 7w1d. We had been struggling with infertility for 3 years after a miscarriage from a natural conception. We’ve spent so much energy, emotions and money on treatments and been disappointed so much that when I saw and heard that little heartbeat on Wednesday I started bawling. I couldn’t speak. Our bean measured right on track for 7w and had a HB of 148.

Now I’m terrified for our next US next Wednesday (8w1d). At 41 I know the risks of genetic issues are so high I am terrified that even though the risk of MC after 7 wk with strong heartbeat are below 10% that we will fall into the unlucky 10%.

I am trying to stay positive but I’m so scared. 😬. Please keep growing little unicorn! 🦄🌈🦄
