Question

I'm a bit worried because my last menstrual period was on April 27, 2017, and when I took a home pregnancy test on June 4, it came out positive. I got a blood test on Tuesday with an hCG level of 12579.68. Then, I went for an ultrasound on June 6th. They saw a sac with a fetus, but there was no heartbeat. I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant, and its been two days since that ultrasound. Is it okay for me to go for another ultrasound today to check for a heartbeat?

It is recommended to wait at least one week after the first ultrasound to check for the heartbeat. You can go for another ultrasound around 7 weeks of pregnancy to have a better chance of detecting the fetal heartbeat.

Question

I'm 9 weeks pregnant and this morning I noticed some watery discharge that was similar to pee. It was just that one time, but now I'm still having some kind of watery discharge, though there's no color or smell. I'm really worried about if this is harmful or not. Could you please let me know if there's something I should be worried about?

Question

I'm really concerned because I'm 3 days late on my period and that never happens to me. Normally, Id be getting these cramps, headaches, backaches, and mood swings right before my period starts, but even with all these symptoms, there's still nothing. I was supposed to get it on Friday, and now its Monday. I did something on Wednesday thats freaking me out a bitI masturbated after having sperm on my fingers, but I did wipe it off with tissue before that, and it wasn't immediate. Plus, on Saturday, I pushed myself really hard during a workout and ended up feeling dizzy and nauseous. Could either of these things be affecting my period, or is something else going on? I'm starting to panic here and would love some insight.

Question

I'm wondering about my 8 weeks 4 days scan. The gestational sac measured 27.9mm but is measuring 7 weeks 4 days. The fetal heart rate was over 175 and the CRL was 20mm. Is it normal for the sac to be measuring a week behind, and should I be concerned about any potential complications because of this?
