I had conceived my rainbow baby! I was 7 weeks according to my period dates but I’m irregular and didn’t get a + until two weeks after AF was due, so I possibly ovulated late.

Went for my first ultrasound, and there was nothing. The space in my uterus was measuring 5 weeks 2 days, which would make sense according to my late ovulation theory. We scheduled a second scan to ensure there was actually going to be something growing.

11 days later. 2nd scan. Went in feeling very optimistic. The scan revealed a yolk sac, measuring 5 weeks 6 days. 11 days after the previous scan, meaning only 4 days of growth happened in those 11 days.

The tech said that sometimes they just take a little while to get going but will be fine, although it’s not always the case. I have a third scan booked plus I will be getting more bloods done to see if hormone levels are rising.

It’s so scary because I’ve had a previous mc and it pretty much played out the same way..

Has this happened to anyone else? What happened in your situation? Please.. I need some hope and positive vibes..
