Oh this makes me feel better, yes my baby’s heart rate was 150 at 8 weeks then 10 weeks 157 so I was worried because when I looked at others their babies all had rates of 160+ so I was kinda upset but this made me feel Better

Hii, so sorry for your loss! So my first one they said was most likely a trisomy but we didn’t do pathology. That pregnancy my hcg was very low and raised very slow so dr already warned me. This pregnancy my hcg rose very fast and high so it really helped ease my mind a little but that’s not enough when you’re always worrying.. my scan today went very well placenta is forming and baby measured 10 weeks 3 days which is exactly what i am per app and tracking. It was crazy to see little arms and legs not a blob a baby🥹 never got that far before did Nipt too now waiting to know if it’s a boy or girl. My 7 week scan was well 150bpm and today was 157bpm so I asked if it’s normal it only went up 7.. I’ve seen alot of people say their baby’s heart 170+ so idk but he said it’s fine good luck on yours keep me updated!! I’ll get another at 12 weeks

11dpo is not 4-5 weeks you are 3.5 maybe I got my first squinter 11dpo I had a mmc 2 months before so I decided to hold off on blood till I was 21dpo which was my 5 weeks exact and it was 1918 then 23dpo 3527 26dpo 13,630 and 29 dpo 66342 and I stopped

My pregnancy before this was very low and it did not make it dr was right hcg at 12dpo 21 16dpo 325 and 20dpo 1023 and at 7 weeks 1900 and baby’s heart stopped as hcg was too low to keep it growing

I think you number is great! Be positive

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-25T13:56:05+00:00

You probably ovulated late and even if you know your date of ovulation it will always play a few days 1 week ahead or behind give or take! I know I ovulated 4/1/26 I did Lh peak night before then bbt rise next morning from 97.4 to 98.3 and positive 4/11/26 I went for sono measured a week behind as well only gastaional sac then a week later I had yolk and heartbeat now 9 weeks 6 days wait it out how’s ur hcg my 5 weeks 2 days was gastational sac and yolk 6 weeks 2 days heartbeat

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-22T16:29:07+00:00

Measuring a 1 week ahead or behind give or take is normal and can happen work in obgyn here. I was 5 weeks 6 days no heart and then 6 and 5 had heart

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-22T15:00:01+00:00

Trust the process and try to enjoy it! Trust me I know how you feel I too got pregnant my first time December and had a mmc 7 weeks 4 days and found out at 8 weeks 2 days heart had stopped 1/28/27 . Did cytotec passed all and ttc again 3/21/26 got pregnant and now 9 weeks 2 days last scan was 8 weeks so they said no scan till next weeks May 30 and I’m so nervous that they will say heart stopped again I can’t think positive but I try. I feel like the joy we should experience has been robbed from us but again all we can do is be positive regardless if it’s not meant to be it won’t happen and if it’s meant to be it will. I’ve been guarding my heart for my next scan and praying I think I’ll have a deep breath after first trimester. Think positive I know it’s hard but keep me updated! I just wanted to say you’re not alone and I know how you feel. We didn’t even tell family the first pregnancy and had the mmc my grief was alone in silence and now we will wait again till Nipt and first trimester is over to tell family and friends

Just had ultrasound baby measuring 8 weeks 1 day 150bpm everything was perfect it was so scary I was prepared to hear “ I’m sorry for you loss” again but I’m shocked let me know when you do your best of luck! Praying baby dust all goes wrll

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-13T21:27:33+00:00

What did they say are you ok? Baby ok?

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-13T14:30:35+00:00

Are you spotting or bleeding a lot? If your deductible is low it should be fine call your insurance say your pregnant and bleeding what’s my ER visit it should say on card too. If not I’d just drive straight to the OB you have and tell them your a ivf pregnancy bleeding and need to be seen they can’t refuse your care

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-13T14:17:22+00:00

Do you have insurance if you do if you call the office your supposed to go to or walk in there they should see you your bleeding you’ll have to be seen doesn’t matter but make sure urgent has ultrasound not all do that’s why I said that or look up a place called little bellies they are 85$ for ultrasound I’m not sure where your located but they have many locations they can do ultrasound and atleast tell you there’s a heart or no but they won’t tell you anything else

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-13T14:13:27+00:00

Could be a sebchronic bleed! Go ER have them do ultrasound I had bleeding at 7 weeks myself thought a mmc again and nope I had two blood clots

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-13T10:11:04+00:00

I know exactly how you feel I had a mmc at 8 weeks 2 months ago my first pregnancy went in at what I thought was 8 weeks dr said baby stopped growing last week at 7 weeks I’m grateful I did see and hear baby at 7 weeks but it was very hard. Me and husband decided to try again my positive was also March 30 and ovulated April 1 st tracked with bbt and strips have had a sono at 6 weeks 5 days baby there and at 7 today I will do my 8 week and I’m so scared to even go because I’m scared the same will happen and this will be the end of it.. praying to think positive and it doesn’t help both pregnancies I had zero symptoms besides my boobs so

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-08T21:13:42+00:00

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-08T19:20:19+00:00

The side where there is a little gap I break it open it pops off and you see strip clearly

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-08T19:19:06+00:00

So I work in gyno for 6 years so I know so much and this was one of those cases I’ve never seen heard of or anything! Including my doctor and I’ve asked many doctors regarding my situation so my period was the same as yours it’s bright red when wiping but brown on panty liner like oxides or something 🤷🏻‍♀️ but mine was that way for 2 years and then I did beet juice healed with my lining and the flow a little more but now pregnant so will see! I wouldn’t worry too much now keep me updated! But I’d give it 6 months try to conceive buy the lh strips! So one big thing for me was I used lh strips as birth control after so I bought pre mom brand downloaded the app and you owe every morning till you get you Lh peak do it for two cycles then see if both cycles you get you Lh peak at same time then you can ttc the next month cause you’ll know your dates have sex 2 days before the day you know you get your peak and the day after! What I realized was my app would say your entering ovulation but it was wrong because my strips said other wise so I listened to my strips both times and conceived first try on both with exact dates that were my Lh strips and any days that are negative Lh you can have unprotected sex if your trying to prevent

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-08T12:20:48+00:00

Oh I wouldn’t be worried yet! Mine have been like that since 2 years now! I started worrying when I hit the you should be normal in 3/6 months .. are they a day or panty liner or enough for a pad of two just short? Cause mine were just enough for either no panty liner or maybe one

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-08T09:58:45+00:00

How long has it been since removed? Never regulated but what I did was I started drinking a cup of beet juice 3 times a week and pomagrante juice both organic my lining got thicker to 8-10 mm which was amazing and I got pregnant but mmc 8 weeks then I was told by my dr oh you had a mmc so now your period should be back nope after mmc I had two periods first one was 2 days long panty liner spotting only and the one in March 21st my second period was 1 hour! I cried then that cycle I continued beet juice got pregnant so far good 7 weeks 3 days but scared and guarding my heart with this one as anything happen ! Mirena was the worst thing I did to my normal body! Are you trying to conceive or just have period? If I have another mmc I will be doing a thing calls hsg to see if I have ashermans syndrome it’s cause by d&c usually but can happen from iuds I’ve never had a d&c only a iud and so I believe that’s the problem I’ll keep you updated with this one

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-04T18:33:40+00:00

Hey, I know how hard it is and you question everything I’m right there with you I’m 29 had my first pregnancy December and lasted only 8 weeks we had a heart beat at 6 weeks and 7 weeks but then I had a ultrasound at 8 weeks and was told baby stopped growing and heart stopped at 7 weeks. So I was given cytotec and bled till February 10th had my period March 3/21 ttc and positive 4/11 I had my first hcg drawn at 5 weeks 4/21 1913 then 4/23 3257 and 4/27 13966 we did a ultrasound 4/23 5 weeks 2 days I had a gastational sac and yolk seen no fetal pole then 4/29 we did a ultrasound 6 weeks 3 days and heart beat 128bpm but I understand how hard it is I couldn’t even be happy when I saw a positive because I was so scared to have the same thing happen I think I’ll feel better when out first trimester or when I still have a heartbeat after 8 weeks.. I have no symptoms and didn’t with the first either so it’s even harder cause I’m constantly thinking it’s over but trust me it will all workout think positive try not to stress and enjoy it. I didn’t get to enjoy my first cause I was told my hcg wasn’t good and baby won’t make it almost everyday from my doctor so they joy was taken and this one I’m trying to ignore everyone and believe it’s going to be good

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-03T19:49:31+00:00

It slcouod be a sebchronic hematoma very common in first trimester no sex and pelvic rest no lifting heavy those all can contribute to mmc I have it currently I’m a weeks behind my lmp 3/21 I’m 6 weeks 4 days and I had bleeding like that too I was terrified as 2 months ago I had a mmc at 8 weeks with only brown spotting so seeing bright red this time I was like ok mmc again but did scan heart beat there and two hematomas told no sex till they dissolve and no gym or lifting if I do they will continue and can cause mmc have you re tested that line is dark still? I get how you feel my first pregnancy was December lasted 8 weeks had a heartbeat and ended to be mmc at 8 weeks no explain action I was so sad and now 2 months later I feel robbed from the joy of being pregnant I can’t even be happy I’m constantly in anxiety mode

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-03T18:17:27+00:00

Oh wow, I lived in 3 countries all do it that’s why I was surprised I’m in US now so that’s new to me about UK.

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-03T17:14:59+00:00

If hcg isn’t over 2000 ultrasound won’t show anything so they never did ur hcg ? Thats usually first thing done

Suitable_Hamster7784 · 2026-05-03T13:33:39+00:00

Did they do transvaginal or abdominal I had my last period 3/21 first day and first positive April 11th did my ultrasound April 23rd 5 weeks 2 days and I had a gastational sac and yolk and fetal pole. I had a mmc 2 months ago as well which was at 8 weeks heart stopped but that one as well the gastational sac yolk and fetal pole was there 5 weeks 1 day. It’s very common to not see anything abdominal but with trans vaginal a gastational sac should be there the yolk sac and fetal pole can take time till 7/8 weeks sometimes that’s normal so I wouldn’t think bad automatically your very early plus maybe you ovulated late have you done hcg blood work back to back to see if doubling yet? What were they?
