Hi everyone, as background, I am 37 years old, diabetic and have high blood pressure diagnosed about a year ago. Found out I was pregnant on May 13 and first day of period was April 6. So I should be 8 weeks pregnant now, This would be my 3rd pregnancy. My first and second kids are already 9 and 6 years old.
This morning I had something like a bloody show, mucus-like, thick and bloody. We went to KKH obgyn A&E. The doc said baby is just 6mm, no heartbeat nor movement. We have cried our eyes out at the news but could it be that baby is actually 5 weeks old and that it is too early to have a heartbeat? Anyone has any similar experience or know of any mommy with preexisting diabetes and high blood pressure and gave birth to healthy baby? Would like to know your/their experience.. thanks!
