I really need some advice!!
so iv jus come back from a scan and it has not gone according to plan.
If i go by LMP i should be 9 weeks tomorrow but i dont have an average 28 day cycle as mine is usually around 34 days sometimes a bit more.
I had a scan on monday 21st january which showed a pregnancy sac and a yolk sac but no baby at that time so the scanner women said everything looked fine but it must be too early to see baby. she wrote in my notes that she thought she saw the fetal pole but she told me and my nan that she couldnt see the fetal pole as it was too early and she only saw the yolk sac.
i went for another scan with my gp which was separate to the hospital scan on friday 25th january and the scaner bloke said that everything looked fine nothing bad appears to be happening and he could see the yolk sac and the pregnancy sac and this is what he would expect to see.
Its been a week and 3 days since the last scan and iv just come back from the hospital today and a different scanner woman said that she thinks the baby has stopped growing and i think she said it was only about 5mm but im not sure what she said as she wasnt very good at all and didnt really provide much information.
I then saw the specialist nurse who said that compared with my first scan i had done where the woman had put she saw the fetal pole it looks like it is bad news and the baby doesnt appear to be growing.
i felt as though i was being rushed into a d&c and she wanted to scan me on the following monday and then do a d&c the same day.i thought this wasnt enough time for the baby to develop as i still feel it wil grow so i said i wanted to have a scan on friday 15th february and then if nothing had improved to have the d&c the following day.
I told her what the gp scanner had said and she said i shouldnt listen to him as he doesnt know what he was talking about and that he doesnt know anything about my history and i shouldnt go and have any more gp scans.
I am really really confused and i really dont know what to do. i just keep getting different opinions and no one is making sense. I havent had any real signs of a miscarriage at all.
i have spotted about three times but it wasnt blood it was like a little tinted pink mark when i went to the toilet and wiped. I havent had any red blood or any severe pains just slight growing pains.
I would really appreciate some advice as i am extremely dissappoited with my scan and the way in which i am getting treated.

I have an early scan on wed due to bleeding and i hope i don't get treated like this. Maybe when you go back next time you may get a better doctor and you can explain your concerns. It could just be you arn't as far along as you thought and baby is fine.
Good luck and hope the next scan goes better xxx

let us know how your doing
Iv had no bleeding (just the occassional darkish discharge) and no severe pains which is what i thought i should expect if i was miscarrying.
Im still so confused at whether or not i am miscarrying or if the pregnancy is just 2 weeks behind my LMP date.
Also i dont feel as though im having much pregnancy symptoms. My boobs are still reasonably large but there not always as sore as they used to be and i feel as though im not as hungry as i used to be. Im not too tired now so do you reckon this could be a sign of possible miscarriage or just the pregnancy symptoms slowing down as the pregnancy develops.
IM SO CONFUSED!!
I experienced a molar pregnancy this time last year and the miscarriage was completely different. i was really ill and always had brown discharge all day long so i cant even compare this pregnancy to the last one!
any help would really be appreciated!
