Am 15 and half wks preg with bub no 4. I had dating scan at 7wks and all was good. I went for a dr appoint today, and she used ultrasound machine and couldnt find a heartbeat and bubs only measured at 10 wks. She believes bub died about 5 wks ago. I have to have a scan at the hospital on Mon. I am shocked and devastated.

There is no history of miscarriage and with 3 healthy kids have never had any cause for concern. Im hanging onto hope that the fact that my bladder was empty (had just done a urine sample), the machine was new and the dr possibly not a fully trained radiographer (is that what they are called?) that she made a mistake. She also saw what she thinks was a fibroid, which was not shown on my 7 wks scan. I havent had any miscarriage syptoms and Im still having nausea (although not as bad as it was) and tender breasts. I am so confused and so upset that this has happened!

Am I just fooling myself into hoping that the Dr has got it wrong? The wait is torture (until I can have another scan).
