December 29, 2011 I had to pay a visit to the ER due to cramping and some bleeding...I was VERY scared because I have never experienced this before and we want this baby SOOOOO bad! They checked my levels and did an ultrasound. I was told that the levels looked ok BUT the babies heart beat on the ultrasound was not as high as they would like it to be, only about 110 bpm. However being only 5 weeks or so pregnant the heart JUST started beating to so big suprise its not on track yet!
I went back 72 hours later to have my levels re-tested and a follow up ultrasound. The levels had risen which is GREAT! The ultrasound was done and it was noted that there is 1 fetal pole present with an identifed heartbeat!! The babies heart beat was at 135! I was VERY happy that the levels had risen and that the babies heart beat had increased, BUT of course the doctor said they still didnt like the heart beat beling that low and that I should not expect the pregnancy to be successful!!! VERY UPSET!!!
