I have never been pregnant, but my friend is high risk pregnancy, and she got a u/s at 5 weeks. I seen the pic and it was just a little sac, very small. Maybe the equipment they were using could not pick it up. If the nurse told you they can't I would listen to her. Don't panic hun. I'm sure everything will work out. Good luck. Keep us posted!

Thank you for that sweetheart...Its abit more comforting now and I will keep u posted...I have another scan next friday the 31st of january,jadexxxfingers crossed eh that its not ectopic:(

Ive heard they cant pick up the baby until at least 6 weeks...

How come you had one that early? Was it because of the bleeds? Sorry for asking but im week 7 and not had one, ive been lead to believe you dont have ultrasounds until weeks 8-12 (and I notice youre from england too so know it isnt a foreign thing!!)

Yes I have been scanned 3times because im on the high risk pregnancy system...As of the bleeds...I have had 3bleeds now and I am going through this 3rd one now since two days ago....Im having period pain as well with this one and the blood is fresh and red (not brown).They can not see anything in my womb but I am havng another scan on friday as they have to scan me every week,due to the high risk factor....All I have done through out the time of being pregnant is sob as I just no this is ectopic.....Im so devastated and worried theres not words to describe how m feeling.

I had two regular periods with both of my living children, I was put on high risk the first child born weighed 10 lbs 2ounces, their is always a 50% chancce of anything happening in any pregnancy, just do your best in trying not to stress because it does not help and I do know that iti is easier said than done. If things do happen negativeky, it is not your fault! You can not think of what if I would have would have, could have should have done things differntly. Thins haapen for reasons, and we do not always know why. I too have lost. We are here ffor you if you need us!

The best to you!

I'm so petrified of it being ectopic and killing me aswell...I no thats selfish but im so scared to die through this....I just no its an ectopic pregnancy as no one can see him.....I no im too early yet...But one nurse sais they wont see him untill im 6weeks and the other sais they should be seeing something by now.I keep bleeding and im having period pain...What can I do...The staff are so unhelpful and rude and they make me feel as though im waisting there time.

I misseed my first period while pregnant and have had all 3 bleeds (this one being the worst)in the space of a week practically.

First, calm down. Being stressed doesn't help you are the baby. Second, many women experience bleeding throughout their pregnancy (especially early on) and have otherwise easy pregnancies, and healthy kids. The cramps you are feeling are probably just your uterus stretching.

Remember that your doctor will know a lot more about your situation than any of us. Trust them, and be sure to get a second opinion if you are still scared.

I've had an ectopic pregnancy. I spotted a day when I was 4 weeks but they said it was normal.And when I was 6 weeks pregnant I started to have really bad cramping to the point I couldn't sleep or move for like a whole week straight but I thought i't was common during early pregnancy.Plus I didn't want to think it was that serious. But then 2 weeks later I suddenly bled bright red blood when I went to go use the bathroom. And I started feeling really lightheaded.But then the bleeding stopped so I went to the hospital the next day.
They gave me an u/s and couldn't see the baby. They draw blood from me and they said my hcg level was really high . They woulda seen the baby ...But the wierd thing was they saw some blood in my stomach. So I had to go through surgery right away. I had to abort the baby in order so I wouldn't bleed to death. Now they said it's kinda harder for me to concieve again because one of my tubes is damaged.Kinda still sad about because I was looking foward for this baby to come into this world.

But best wishes to you I hope you wouldn't have to go through what I had to go through...

I miscarried early this morning in hospital.... :cry:

I am so sorry for your loss.

Hi,

i am only 7 weeks and this is my first and while v happy it scares me like nothing else that something will happen to it. But would just like to say I am extremely sorry for your loss I know how much I fret thinking there may be something wrong and can only imagine what your feeling take care and I hope it all works out for you.

Just wanted to say, I know exactly how you feel and i'm sure right now all you want is to be left alone! However, when I read what you'd been through, I just had to contact you.
I've had two miscarriages, one at 10 weeks and one at 6 weeks. No words of comfort are available and it feels like your heart is breaking, despite however good your family or friends are.
All I can say is it will get better in time.
I'm now pregnant again - 8 weeks, but i've just had some spotting of old blood, i'm currently terrified, waiting to see if anything should develop to ruin my chances again. But I had to get in touch, to say I am thinking of you.
