Am I being realistic? UPDATE

Question

Wanted to update since a few of you said you’re also going through this…. 
Todays scan showed baby has not grown since my initial appt (2 weeks ago) and has no heartbeat. I have not experienced symptoms so it’s a MMC. Hugs and best wishes to all!! ❤️
Clearly (unfortunately) I was being very realistic
My husband is encouraging me to be more hopeful but after my first ultrasound yesterday, the measurement put this little bean at 6w4d…. I tested positive 4w4d ago and it wasn’t the faintest line or just one test. I’m sure I didn’t conceive the same day I tested positive. I knew I’d be a week or maybe even close to 2 weeks off from my LMP but this is like 3+ weeks off… this is my 3rd pregnancy, I have been fortunate to not have miscarried before but I just feel like baby shouldn’t be this small. My doctor is pretty sure she saw a flicker but it wasn’t clear to me. Thankfully she’s letting me come back in 2 weeks instead of having to wait a full month. 
Am I being realistic with taking this measurement as potentially bad news? She did say baby was in a weird spot so the measurement wasn’t crystal clear but this ultrasound looks nothing like my previous 2 at 7weeks and some change. 
Only time we had unprotected sex was April 25th and 28th. Positive pregnancy test May 9th. LMP was April 8th but my cycles were long and inconsistent since I was still nursing. 
How would you be handling this? Just curious!

Answer

Honestly, I would be bracing myself. With when you tested positive, there is no way you could only be 6.5 weeks pregnant. I wouldn’t give up all hope, by any means, because your doctor mentioned how hard it was to get a measurement. But I would be guarding my heart right now. (Saying this as a mama who has experienced a lot of losses)

Answer

So I just went through this.. I tested positive and assumed I was 4 weeks( it was a faint line) I had an appt a 6 weeks 2 days and had no heart beat and said I was four weeks. Which could not be the case bc I had tested positive over two weeks prior. 
She order blood tests and scheduled another ultrasound two weeks later. Well the blood work looked great so I was slightly optimistic for the ultrasound. Had an ultrasound two weeks and two days later and baby measured 7 weeks 5 days with a great heart beat. 
So I feel like there could be a chance yours is a week off (thats basically what mine was and doctor was originally wrong also). I’d be cautiously hopeful bc there is a chance. 
Praying for you girl.

Answer

I'm not sure when I got pregnant, but I had a positive test on May 26th, I took a few more throughout the time frame to my first appointment. I went in June 9th thinking I was like 6-7 weeks but they only saw a gestational sac. So I go back on the 16th. I thought I was further along because I waited a week past when my period was supposed to start then waited another week before even scheduling my appointment. My tests were all dark & digital came back all pregnant, Dr office test came back positive. So I guess we'll see next Thursday. I'm thrown off as well. 😔

Answer

You’re sorta like me. My LMP was April 8th. Unprotected sex was only April 30th. I went to the ultrasound on June 6th and measured 7 weeks and 3 days. They are not going by my LMP Bc I ovulated very late! Hope this helps a bit!

Answer

This looks very normal for 7 weeks or 6 weeks
