We were told instantly that it was not looking good due to the amount of blood that she has lost. We had a scan around 10am and, what can only be said as pure joy, there was a little heart pumping away. We were estactic ?sp?, but then we were told that the scanner/doc, was worried as the yolk sac was very low, and was probably the reason for the bleeding.

Apparently the yolk sac is that low that it posses the threat of forcing the cervix ?sp? wall open and causing a "inevitable miscarriage". They wanted to do another internal to see if they could see anything else, and they said that the wall was still closed.

And that was about it, we have another scan booked for friday 14th (friday coming). Now this is the reason for wanting some help/info from anyone. On friday when they do the scan, if the baby is still healthy the yolk sac has not got lower and forced the wall open, does this mean there is a better chance of the baby surviving, or does it mean that it still hasn't happend yet?

And what are the chances of this not happening in 2 months time?

Thank you all for reading this post, this is killing me inside and just to get it out is already helping. Thanks again for reading.

Regards,
