In Limbo

I am at home resting. This AM I went to work and all was fine. I ran to the bathroom and there was a lot of blood. I called the RE and they said for me to come in. I had to call the mom I work for and luckily, she came home quickly. DH came home and we went to the RE.

The whole way there I could feel myself cramping and bleeding more. The u/s revealed a large clot. There was something that could be a fetus but the RE said she could see something that could be a heartbeat. She measured it at 113 hb per minute. That is normal for this age. She said that the gestational sack didn't look "normal."
They did a blood draw to check hcg levels and sent me home.

I'm so scared that this is a miscarriage. I don't know how a fetus could survive this amount of blood and cramping. I'm an emotional wreck. I'm trying to stay hopeful but also prepare myself for the worst possible outcome.
