Measuring behind…?
Or slow growth maybe?? Idk… I went a few weeks ago to a private clinic and she measured what she thought was the baby and said it measured 6 weeks exactly, which was on Aug 30. I went to my actual OBGYN office today and they did their own ultrasound… and baby is only measuring 6weeks 4days… but we got to hear the heartbeat and the heartbeat is ringing in at 169 bpm. Which is really good! But the gestational age is really worrying me! I feel like with seeing and hearing the heartbeat everything should feel okay.. but I can’t help but feel worried with all the MMC and issues I’ve dealt with in the past… ): but then again my son measured like 3 full weeks behind until I was almost 30 weeks.. then he measured 3 weeks ahead, lol. So idk. I’m just nervous. So far everything has been okay. I haven’t had any bleeding or anything. Has anyone else had this happen and everything been okay? With both of my others I’ve measured behind but usually once we get a scan everything grows accordingly to that date. I was just in the hospital August 23 and 25… and had ultrasounds both those days. 23rd they didn’t see anything at all, and then on the 25 they found the gestational sac and said it was measuring between 5 and 6 weeks but didn’t give me hardly any info besides the relief that it wasn’t ectopic and they were able to locate pregnancy inside the uterus. And on the private scan I thought I could see the heart flickering but the ultrasound machine was not very good quality so it was really hard to see much of anything and she never tried to locate the heartbeat. So both of those scans where gestational sac was found the heart beat wasn’t located at all. This is the first time we located the heartbeat…
Here’s the pic I was given from my ultrasound today.
This is the picture that they took at the private clinic.
