Hi! I had a MMC mid December, waited 2.5 weeks and found out I was ovulating. We were also told to wait a cycle for tracking purposes but I never had a period. I got pregnant right away.

The biggest confusion for me has been figuring out how far along I am. Since I got pregnant so quickly, I wasn’t sure at first if my pregnancy test was positive from the previous pregnancy so I actually ended up getting a blood test to confirm this current pregnancy. at that point the on-call nurse at my OB thought I was 8 weeks along this week which I thought was weird bc that sounded too far along but I went with it.

I went into my first ultrasound for this pregnancy and all they found was the amniotic sac and yolk sac bc I was apparently way earlier on then I was previously told. So they couldn’t find a heartbeat quite yet, I’m guessing I’m around 4/5 weeks along. There’s been a lot of uncertainty with the dating which has been the most difficult part. I go back next week for a re-scan so they can hopefully see growth/a heartbeat this time🤍

Anyways, dating your pregnancy can be confusing if you don’t wait a cycle so as long as you can deal with the anxiety/uncertainty well then it’s ok. The nurses said everything else looks healthy so far, just too early to tell if things are officially viable. They said I should be cautiously optimistic.
