6 weeks 2 days and no heartbeat.... really concerned

[mendez10]

6 weeks 2 days pregnant went to my doc appt today they saw the sac and embryo the doc everything was where its suppose to be but no heartbeat..... and said theres a large perfectange of a miscarriage... i ovulated late so when i went to first appt i was suppose to be 7 weeks but i was only 4..... is it normal to not see a heartbeat at 6 weeks? ive had two other full term healthy pregnancys but my first sonogram with them was about 8 weeks and saw everything then... please help

I didnt see a heartbeat with my first son till 6w5d and with my second 7w1d.  Good luck to you.

Some people don't see a heartbeat until seven or eight weeks. Usually during the sixth week the heart starts to beat but that's not a hardened rule. Give it a week see what happens. Good luck

the day of y last period i should actually be 9 weeks 4days... so its about 3 weeks off

no they measured the embryo and its 6 weeks 2days....the only thing that im staying positive about is on my first appt they did vag u/s to make sure i was as far as i said they only saw the sac so they decided to do it again today 2 weeks later and they saw the embryo and sac the doc said everything is growing like it should but that he was concerned there was no heartbeat.....and by 6 weeks they should be able see the flicker of the heartbeat

feeling ill is a good sign, try not to worry as it will not help. did the doctor say when you will miscarry? like, should it be within the next week or two? are you 6 weeks or is that the date of your last period, where its only 3-4 weeks old if you ovulated late..? miscarriages happen because the feotus has not developed the way it should so if it did happen do not think of it too negatively.. hope you are ok xo

i feel fine alot of naseous been spotting for a couple weeks now but doc said normal during first tri-mester but i got really concerned when he said he wanted to get m prepared for the worst that could happen and that 75% chance of a miscarriage.......... very worried been upset/in tears all day....

I swear if I ever get pregnant again I will try not to go to the doc before 8 weeks!!!

You may be fine.  It may be too early to see.  it may be twins!  Try to stay calm.

how are you feeling???
