Don'tlose hope yet! That's good you saw something... perhaps you ovulated late this last cycle? How long are your cycles usually? If you usually have long cycles then you will have ovulated later & therefore not be as far along as the doctor thinks you are... their dating is based on the first day of your last period & making the assumption that you have a 28 day cycle.

i also had 2 losses Before having our son so know how scared you must feel but you are definitely not out of hope yet!
you can ask your doctor to do a 'quantitative hcg' blood test... this measures the exact level of pregnancy hormone in your system... you have 1 test then repeat it in 48 hours... if the numbers have gone up then that's a positive sign.. if they have gone down then that usually indicates that the baby has passed away.
Good luck & keep me posted!
Thanks I'm in limbo the now and don't know what to think I'm really hoping it's still there I'll call my Dr on Monday and ask for bloods to be done and thanks for replying x
