I had my first scan yesterday. I was supposed to be 10w3d along. It was an abdominal scan and they couldn't find a baby, only a tiny thing in my uterus, which they couldn't identify. After this scan, I was shocked and devastated but didn't lose hope yet. I immediately booked another scan and went in today. This time they did both external and internal scans. And my biggest fear was confirmed. The only thing they saw was an empty sac and no baby.

Is it possible for me to be only 5 weeks along? I had my last period on Nov 2nd and last intercourse Nov 14. Honestly, now I've lost hope as I don't think it's possible for me to be only 5 weeks. If I'm further along than that, a baby would already be visible, especially at 10 weeks.

I probably have a blighted ovum and there's no hope to see a baby growing even if I wait more. I have not had any spotting, bleeding or cramping but I guess it's just the matter of time. Did anyone ever go through this? Is it better to have a D&C or wait for the miscarriage to happen on its own?

I'm heartbroken that I'll have to be leaving this group. I've been in this group from the day I found out I was going to have an August baby and enjoyed being a part of this group so much. I'm already 33 and I want a sibling for my son so badly. I know women are less fertile as they age. But I hope there's a silver lining for me and I can get pregnant again soon.

I wish everyone a healthy pregnancy. Please cherish and enjoy your pregnancy and your baby as much as you can. It's a blessing to be pregnant. Babies are gifts from God.

Good luck, ladies 💕

I hope 2019 is the best year for you.
