Thinking of you and hoping it's nothing. With A I had spotting (unexplained) and awful, awful cramps. So bad that I was convinced I was miscarrying again. Not sure if this helps to reassure you, but I just wanted to let you know that you can fear the worst and have it be alright. It is possible, and I've got everything crossed that that's the case for you.

Thank you both.
We did an ultrasound and it looks like I'm measuring at 6w2d, which matches my 5w6d Monday scan, but the tech couldn't find the heartbeat. We're waiting for the doctor and to be discharged and I guess I'll follow up with my doctor tomorrow.

Thanks, guys. The bleeding seemed to intensify last night, but was just brown discharge this morning (probably the Endometrin). My doctor is going to scan me tomorrow because he's concerned that they couldn't find the heartbeat.
I'm sorry, that sounds terrifying. I'm glad it seems to be old blood this morning, and hopefully you will have good news tomorrow. You're so early yet that I'm surprised your dr is concerned that they didnt' find a HB; that seems pretty reasonable to me..!
cherryvalance- the ultrasound machines in the ER here are very crappy. They always told me yes there's a baby in there, and they would say things like "it looks like your x number of weeks" and even when it looked like I was 9-10 weeks they didn't seem discouraged that they couldn't actually see the heartbeat because of the machines they used. If it's one of those machines try not to worry. (Way easier said then done) but I'm glad your getting an ultrasound soon so you can see baby again.

I'm trying to be mentally prepared either way, but the HB has given me hope. I really believe in the power of a bunch of people thinking good thoughts/prayers/whatever, so I truly appreciate it all!
