I had a scan at 6weeks 1day and it was a perfect round gestational sac with nothing in there. The nurse told me that the scan was normal that it can take 5.5 weeks to 7 weeks to see a baby. The levels she said sometimes they slow down but they were rising so it’s not a concern yet. She told me I wasn’t out of the woods. Honestly I don’t have any hope left. I have a scan Friday but I’m depressed and just waiting to confirm a miscarriage at this point.

Back story:

I have two wonderful children ages 8 & 7. Had a miscarriage in 2013 at 9 weeks and had a d&c. Got married in 2016, tried getting pregnant 2.5 years nothing. Started birth control and got pregnant the next month. We were over the moon excited but now it’s like a dark cloud. I know god has a purpose for everything but I’m having a hard time seeing how losing this baby has any purpose at all. After so long and get it snatch out of reality. This is my husbands first biological child and he’s a mess. We have been holding our two babies extra tight.
