Gestational Sac measuring larger

January 31, 2008

I had gone in for US and gestational sac is measuring 7w4d, I'm only 5weeks 4 days pregnant......is that bad? My beta was 513, and doubling still every 2.21 days......

Any adivce?

January 31, 2008

I read another post that the sac is not a good indication of how far along u are in ur pregnancy.

January 31, 2008

I was just hoping it doesnt me it not a viable pregnancy because its measuring ahead.....

January 31, 2008

I dont think so, 5 W 3 days is way too early to have an U/S done, it only causes unnecessary worries for another 2 weeks until u see the fetal pole and then another 1 week before u see the heart beat. DOnt worry u are not going to have a M/C. I understand how stressful this can be, and even if it was measuring as it should, the rate of having a M/C drops only after u hear the heart beat. So, just dont think abt it as the sac is not a good indicator of how far u are along...

Congratz on the pregnancy!

I agree with Hope and when you are about 6 weeks give or take a day or two, you can see the fetal pole and the heartbeat flickering if you have a transvaginal ultrasound done.

Good luck to you!

Ok thanks....I hope! There wasnt a yolk sac yet, which I read its still early so I'll wait to here from my OBGYN too. Thanks!!! for the ++++thoughts!

Hey Shannon maybe you were a little off with you ovulation date and therefore maybe the baby is a little older. But don't worry you seem to be doing great!!! Take care and sticky glue!

Shannon dont worry about the sac measuring differently....I 2 had mine measure wrong in the beginning. they said i was 5 weeks and i know for a fact i was 6 weeks...I only saw the gestional sac at 5 weeks then a couple of days later i saw the yolk sac then it took another week and 1/2 to see heartbeat....Keep your chin up those u/s techs arent always right....

January 31, 2008

yeah Im pretty sure I O'd on the 9th of Jan. and even with my LMP I wouldnt be 7w 4d along! I just hope that the larger sac isnt a bad thing! I just wish things were easy!!! Ever sice my MC I constantly worried about things!

remember that they can have you ahead especially if they are using a 28 day marker....then also the margin or error for measuring is +/- 4 days....Hang in there kiddo

Thanks! Well the doctors office thinks it may just be too early ONCE again, to tell....the doc is only in the office ONCE this week, tomorrow and I thankfully won't be going out of town till Thursday. SO I will wait for a phone call to see if they can fit me in tomorrow. I did ask if they thought thats based off the 28day cycle and the RN said yes that could be very well what they are doing?? But Doc wants to see me........please pray that everything will be ok. I can't help to worry but Im DETERMINED to stay +++++ about this!!! I just have this feeling everything will be fine, just need that extra reassurance!!!!!!!!!!

PRAY PRAY PRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++thoughts!

I'm going in next week on Tuesday to do ultra sound.....doc made it sound all bad that I was measuring ahead.....but then I had a scan today and the gest sac was measuring right on with 6wks! I hate the office I go too but Im stuck with him till at least my first tri is over! My endrometrium lining was 10 and my betas are still rising! SO he made me scared and worried over nothng....when I called him and left him a message he called me back and said WHats Up? I said I'd like to know how the reort from the scan went? Oh well not bad but ok.....then he went on to tell me that the tech didnt get the best measurements for the sac that it was 1.7 x 1.4cm....and then threw all this tech crap at me.....I said AM I PREGNANT OR NOT? he said yep somewhere you are! What the heck kind of answer is that! I swear! I looked up a chart and it said for 6wks gest sac should be around 14, my is around 17, so I think I am fine! IF he thought I was going to MC so bad why didnt he do a BETA! IDIOT!!!! It could have shown if my numbers where lowering at least! I swear! I have a stack of wk to do before I leave Thurs. to fly home to surpise my mom for her bday and sore throat now and presentation to prepare for and today was my day to work on it and I spent most the day in tears at the doctors office and hospital not knowing and the WHAT IF again games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

February 05, 2008

Shannon, this doc seems like a joke. Switch docs as soon as you can! Sorry for all the frustrations you're dealing with. I think the baby is fine too :)

Have a good time for your mom's bday and gargle with warm water and salt for the sore throat :)

February 05, 2008

Thanks! Prayer and hope are my only options at this point!

February 05, 2008

Oh sorry girl to hear about all the craziness you are having to go through! I'm so glad that you got another sono and things are measuring right on!! SENDING YOU TONS of STICKYGLUE!!

February 05, 2008

You have all my prayers hun :)

February 05, 2008

Gosh I hate that you have a sucky doctor. Thats no fun. Im soo blessed mine is great. He even called a few months back and said I know you are going to have a success story on this Clomid and something else, and thats it. I think I called for something but then again I dont think I did I think he just called, gosh I cant remember that was right before Christmas.

Anyways its great to have a great doctor. Now his nurse on the other hand is Iffy at times....really sweet sometimes and kinda aggravated at others. Anyways all in all im sure im in good hands and you should be too sweetie. As soon as you can find a new doctor, that is highly recommended and who cares as well.

Also have a safe flight home to surprise your mom...what a great gift to her!!

Lots of love sweetie and loads of prayers!!!!

February 06, 2008

Shanon..what???? unbelievable! glad everything is ok now.geez

February 06, 2008

Yeah we will see.....I'm just the next ultra sound at 7wks we can see the little bean! Prove the DOCTOR wrong! I really feel everything will be fine, but now I cant help to worry in the back of my mind.....so praying and praying is all I got!!!!! :o) I will let you know Tuesday mid morning what we see on ultra sound!!!!!

February 06, 2008

Cant wait!!

Goodluck!!

February 06, 2008

Gonna be fine, it was the tech's fault and obviously the Dr has to defend his employee else imagine what an impression it would create on all his other patients? So, ur gonna be good and ur gonna see the heart beat on the 7th week U/S
