I have not miscarried. I am actually going through something similar to you right now. I got some very worrying beta results back on Thursday (hence my research) but I decided to forego the ultrasound, at least for now. I was frantic for a day, then weepy for a day, and am feeling sort of better today. I don't really know how much hope I should have, but I have sort of decided that until there is no hope, I am going to stick my head in the sand and pretend everything is okay. More or less.

I can't stand not knowing, but I feel like an ultrasound wouldn't provide relief even if it were normal, because abnormal betas are strongly associated with miscarriage even after a normal ultrasound. And because I know more than one person who had an ultrasound that showed a normal baby only to find out later that the baby likely died a day or two after the ultrasound. And if my ultrasound were abnormal, I wouldn't give up hope. So I have decided I don't want to do it.

Waiting is horrible. Acting like everything is normal is so strange, but I've just got to do it. There is no sense in grieving for something that may not actually happen. I will have time enough to grieve if the time comes for that.

Final Update

thanks to everyone for your support

I ended up losing the baby last night, I don't know what to say. It was a surreal experience, it came on strong and then was over. I've almost accepted it and that all will be okay.

You all will be in my thoughts till June 09! All the best to you guys for healthy, happy pregnancies and super sweet babies come June.
