What Causes Slow Fetal Growth At 9th Week Of Pregnancy?

Respected Mam, According to my LMP i.e 20.01.2015 I am nine weeks pregnant. But the growth shows 6 weeks some days. There is a faint heart beat. I had my first spontaneous miscarriage in September 2014 (5 weeks) reasons unknown. Post that got all the tests done ign,igm,torch, aptt, apa, la all are normal. Got test repeated earlier this week and once again everything is normal. I have been asked by the doctors to wait for 1 more week. my next scheduled appointment is on Monday. Now there is fetal pole growth but no change in growth within 2 weeks. doctors are saying there could be 50/50 chances. Currently I have taken 3 hcg injections and have been taking folic acid since last 2 months. We have even started duphaston last week once a day. also my husband s blood group is o negative. now I am really worried to have second miscarriage. I know its not the end of the world. but I have no ailments no problems then why am I the unfortunate one. I have stopped working, I am at home since 2 months. Since last 3 weeks my anxiety level has gone off the roof worrying about baby s growth. What is your recommendation. What are the chances? Are there many people similar to me going through delayed conception issue?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion repetition of ultrasound is advised after a week to know the progress.Dont worry cases like this are routinely seen in clinical practice.Go on with HCG injections and progesterone supplements.As all the tests are normal nothing to worry.Avoid stress and anxiety as they might disturb the hormonal milieu.Relax.
