No heart beat at 7wks 2days

FG, It could be still too early for a HB, so don't lose hope. I agree with the others, try to get another scan in a weeks time

I'd wait for another scan too. I don't think your Dr would have given you the referral for the nuchal scan if he knew that things weren't right

Im sorry to hear of this. If there is any potential for discrepancy with your dates then it could be ok. I think you should request another scan in one weeks time. You should def see a heartbeat by 8.5w and then you will know for sure. I dont think its fair on you to wait until 12 weeks for another scan.

I hope it all works out well.

Big hugs hun!!

I hope you can get in for a scan a bit sooner to put your mind at ease hun. I don't think the Ob would have referred you if he thought something was wrong either FWIW.

Oh hun, what a terribly confusing time for you Like the other girls have said, get another scan in a couple of weeks.

Thinking of you during this difficult time x

Agree. A doctor wouldn't (shouldn't) not tell you what they believe is really going on. If he thought it was unusual not to see a heartbeat then surely he'd just be honest and say so, maybe even prepare you for the worst.

It could very well be too early. Hang in there and I hope you can get another scan soon to ease your mind

Thanks everyone - I think with DS being IVF bub and having the viability scan at 6wks, I was just in the mindset that we would be able to see a little heartbeat this time. Spoke with DH about it over lunch and he is supportive of me booking back into the ob for another scan (although he will be on leave so it will be a locum(sp!)) - figures the money is worth it if it puts my mind at rest! I just hate not knowing one way or the other.

I hope that my Dr would not have mislead us, I guess I just have to trust him and try and stay positive.

Thanks again for all your support.
