Answer

I had a blighted ovum. My hcg kept rising but nothing was growing. I had a sac that measured 6 weeks when I should've been 8 weeks. Unfortunately no baby grew and I had to have a d&c.; I felt pregnant, I had symptoms but they were fading. This was my first pregnancy so I didn't know what was normal. I had multiple ultrasounds to verify and by the time I should've been 10 weeks my hcg was just starting to lower. 
Was this your first ultrasound? How many weeks?
A blighted ovum cannot be diagnosed with one ultrasound. I'm so sorry this is happening to you, I knew after my first ultrasound what was happening because I had a horrible feeling the entire time. 
Sending you lots of strength and love ❤

Answer

I think this is what i was diagnosed with at my dating scan (i think) i had two more scans after to double check, the internal scan showed i had a fetus. I think your body tricks you thinking its still pregnant as your hormones are still high (which is pretty cruel). I had to have a mva to remove the tissue
