![]() TikTok video from Scarlett Quinn "So today I had my second scan, exactly a week after the first scan when we were told that the baby was only measuring at about six weeks, gestation, I should have been 7 1/2 weeks, and there was no heartbeat □ I agreed to wait another week to rescan, just to make double sure that all is lost, before any decisions are made. They have said that if I go ahead with the termination on Friday, in two months, or two years time, I might be thinking the big WHAT IF… □ but I know in my heart, deep down, that this is definitely not a viable pregnancy □ I just want this all over with now □ #ivfjourney #missedmisscarriage #pregnancyġ1.8K Likes, 510 Comments. It’s all just seems so unfair, and the added cruelty of another week to wait…unless.I take matters into my own hands this Friday. Unfortunately, they can’t bend the rules for IVF patients, even though they’re more certain that I have had a missed miscarriage than they would be for a person who had conceived naturally. So just to explain, & hopefully make that a bit clearer, if you have conceived naturally, there is a chance that you have your dates wrong, and that, perhaps, they are listening for a heartbeat, that hasn’t even developed enough to be heard yet, but in my situation, I know how many weeks along I am and I know that the measurements that are showing, are a week or so behind. I get that they are following the protocol that they need to stick to, but, because this is an IVF pregnancy, we know the exact date of conception, which makes it very unlikely that a heartbeat will suddenly be audible by next week. I have been advised not to do this JUST IN CASE! They are 98% sure that the baby has died, but they need to be 100%. ![]() The baby has to be measuring at least 7 before they can make the final call, but, what I don’t understand is why the baby has continued to grow? Even if it has, where is the heartbeat?! Obviously something is very wrong to say the least □ So last week, I booked myself in for a private termination, for this Friday. So at today’s scan, I was told again that no heartbeat has been detected, BUT, the baby has grown a little bit since last week… So… Last week it was measuring at 5.5 and this week it is measuring at 6.5. So today I had my second scan, exactly a week after the first scan when we were told that the baby was only measuring at about six weeks, gestation, I should have been 7 1/2 weeks, and there was no heartbeat □ I agreed to wait another week to rescan, just to make double sure that all is lost, before any decisions are made. ![]()
