First sonogram went badly.

Hello ladies, a week ago I had went in for my first sonogram all excited but I had left that appointment feeling scared and heartbroken. The first and only thing the doctor said to me was that she’s concerned and there’s a chance that my baby would not make it. They had me at about 7 weeks and my little bean only measured in at about 5 weeks and two days. The heart they said must if just started to beat. That this is the earliest they could is seen it.

They didn’t think it was developing normally. I asked if it’s bc I just I ovulated later then normal. She said it’s possible but she didn’t seem hopeful. She left the room quickly placing her hand gently on my knee at a poor attempt to offer sympathy. I let the office in tears. But I think that I need to remind people here that doctors are not always right. They just have the basics down and go from that. After I had collected myself I was able to really look at the facts and realize that the doctor had to be wrong. She never once asked me if I knew when I ovulated or if I was even keeping track. She didn’t ask me anything about my typical cycle. She just looked at the last known date of my last period and pretended to think that I fell within the norm. I don’t and it was wrong to assume I do. I looked at the calendar and quickly knew they were wrong. There were only a few possible days I could of convinced that month. All three days placed me at about 5 weeks. Today I went in for another sonogram to see if there was any growth. I walked in with confidence because I knew. Long story short, my baby is perfectly fine measured in at 6 weeks and 4 days with a heart rate of 120 and a new due date of May 9th.

UPDATE: I just wanted to thank everyone for the wonderful things that were said. I just wanted to leave this here and let everyone know that things are going wonderfully.
