My doctor said he is 95% sure I will miscarry. The baby is supposed to be growing 1mm per day but only grew 1 mm in three days. My HCG level Monday was almost 69,000. I have another u/s scheduled for June 4th. He said if there is no heartbeat at that time, he will do a D&C. Anyone have any answers for me? Should I just think positive thoughts? I have not so far had any signs of miscarriage.

I'm sorry to say, but chances are you are havint a miscarriage. The best advice I can give you is to try to relax because there's nothing you can do at this point.
Even if you haven't had any signs of a miscarriage yet, the fact of the matter is that your doctor does not believe that your fetus is viable right now. That may be wrong, but it's okay if it's right.

Sometimes they can see the heartbeat at 6 weeks- but sometimes they can't . Was there a fetal pole? No matter what- don't give up hope- and don't blame yourself for having hope if it doesn't work out. I have had 4 MC so I know how the ups and downs of hope and how the mind games we play with ourselves can affect us- but the truth is- each life we carry is another life, and that life lives for the time it is supposed to and serves a purpose beyond our comprehension. Some people live 100 years- some only live a few weeks... either way we all serve a purpose even when we have no clue what the purpose is.. The pain we feel when we miscarry is part of the healing process- God uses all pain for our betterment. Just remember that it's not your fault- that God is NOT punishing you and that you will have children some day. I have one and one on the way... Love with abandon- have hope and faith without regret. Good Luck.

Oh my goodness sweetheart...Im sorry to say but the doc is probably right. I just had to have a D&C done April 2. On March 28( I was 11 1/2 wks) I started spotting really light only when I would urinate...it was hardly enough to even wear a pantiliner.I had a vag sono at 6 weeks when I had the flu to make sure the baby was ok and everything was fine...good heartbeat perfect growth. I had a doc appt for my first sono on April 5 so I was hoping everything would be ok till then cuz I had heard of thousands of women spotting during pg. After 2 days of that I said...screw it...Im going to the ER and I did. I was so scared ...by myself cuz my hubby was at work...and they examined my blood flow and then took me for a sono. The tech wouldnt tell me anything ...nothing....they took me nack to the room and when the doc came in he gave me the news...I was miscarrying...there was no heartbeat and no fetal movement and they size of my baby put her at 7 weeks 6 days so she had actually been passed away for 3 1/2 weeks but my body wasnt naturally rejecting her. I thought I was going crazy...knowing that for almost a month my baby had been in a better place while I was walking around not knowing anything was wrong...it was very hard to deal with. Everyday I still think to myself...next week Id be 20 weeks and so on....but shes in a better place and I know that it was what was best for her. They had to do a D & C and that was pretty scary also...but they sedated me and I didnt feel a thing. Love...like they say...everything in life happens for a reason...and its all going to be okay...I wish you the best of luck and if you ever need someone to talk to feel free to contact me....May God Bless you & yours

oh honey, I hope this goes well for you, take it easy, don't stress out at ALL, and keep your fingers crossed, Good Luck, and keep taking your prenatal pills just in case.
EDITTED:
first Happy Birthday!!, second, I had a complicated pregnancy, a placenta previa, and placental abruption starting at 12 weeks, my baby and I were given a 50-50 chance. I was on bed rest the whole time, at 24 weeks I passed a blood clot that was so large ant formed the doctors wanted to do a D&C, there was no heartbeat. I held out and demanded an ultrasound. It showed a perfectly healthy baby boy. I had him by caecarean at 36 weeks and he is 5 now.
Have hope, and wait a few weeks for that D&C, cause you never know

I would soooo wait a couple of weeks before deciding to do a D and C. OMG. I have had two miscarriages and ended up having twins successfully! yay! However, one of my twin boys was not measuring so well and did not have a heartbeat right away. I was nine weeks before it showed up. The baby could be positioned weird in your uterus... your HCG numbers sound good but they mean nothing unless you are doubling every 48 hours or so... do you have some more numbers? if you want to chat some more I have a website for this. www.lamsupport.org. Thanks Dacia

i hate to answer this for you but it happened to me I was carrying twin the ultrasound showed no fetal heart beat and my levels were up because the babies were dead. i didnt want to hear it either so i chose another hospital and went 1 week later for another one. my twins dies during separation the reason the levels were going up the babies were poisoning me inside. the placentas were still growing i showed no sign of miscarriage i felt so pregnant. please schedule a ultrasound asap don t let it poison you. i am sorry to give you this bad news. from one mom to another ps i had another baby after them and god gave me the little girl i always wanted dont give up!

think positive!
Sometimes they are wrong.
i dont know enough about when you should see a heart beat but dont give up. If you really want this dont give up. Keep thinking postive.
If he should be right, just remember that your child was way to perfect for this world, and that he/she is always with you.
