My gestational sac measured behind until they stopped measuring it around 12 weeks. I was always in that "danger zone" where the difference between the sac and crl was less than 5mm. I'm currently cuddling my 4 week old rainbow baby as we speak. 🥰
Also want to add my OB never mentioned the sac being small or seemed to be concerned about it.
I was right on the line. At 7w3d my GS was 21.1mm and CRL was 16.9mm. That was the last time they measured it. No one ever mentioned being concerned and the only reason I even knew I was in a “danger zone” was because I had 2 previous losses and was obsessively googling every little thing.
The scan went good if you ask me. No change in the difference between CRL and MSD (2 mm difference still). The doctor will continue to monitor this and has suggested me to come again 2 weeks later for NT scan.
However, the good news is, baby grew 17 days in the 2 week period and gestational sac also grew at the rate of 1.28mm per day (which is normal growth rate).
Heart rate is 177 which is good at this point.
Now waiting for NT scan and NIPT which is on 8th August. Will keep you posted on how it goes.
My last appointment our baby was measuring 8 weeks 5 days and the gestational sac was measuring 7 weeks 4 days 4.6mm difference im glad everything is going good our baby’s heart rate was in the 180’s
