At 6 weeks we went to the hospital because I was bleeding a bit (1st baby and scared me) an ultra sound was done, they said there was a gestational sac + yolk but no fetal pole. My HCG levels at 6 weeks was 29,489, the attending seemed like that wasnt a normal number and told me that I only had a slight chance of it being viable.... He told me to follow up with a OB. since I'm in the last part of my immigration process we couldn't do that we only have travelers insurance. (Living in Toronto).

All me and my husband could do was wait until I found a midwife (Which is no cost for ppl who have started the immigration process).

A few days later we got a call that we were accepted for a midwife and that she wanted to meet us at 8 weeks. We met her on this past Thursday, which made me more so at 9 weeks. I told her everything that went on. She pretty much told me at 6 weeks it's pretty much impossible to see the baby, and from the ultrasound notes that I had just turned 6 weeks, and that my hormones looked amazing along with all the other pregnancy markers. She told me to get an ultrasound on Monday, andddd I'm so nervous. Has anyone had this happen to them? is it as normal as my midwife said? did you end up seeing a heart beat? I'm trying so hard to be patient and stress free as possible.

Update:

Had an ultrasound on Monday. We saw the heartbeat. My midwife called me for results this morning and told me everything looked amazing. Babies size, Heartbeat & the placenta. I was soooo happy to see my little nugget. She said baby is due December 31st.
