Has anyone ever heard of a situation where a heartbeat has not been found and then seen at a later scan?
I can't stop asking myself whether they could have made a mistake at my scan. I've had no more bleeding or pain and it's niggling at me. I'm probably just in denial though, surely if there was a chance of that they would recommend, coming back again later to double check.
I read on the miscarriage association that a heartbeat at 8 weeks increases the chance of a continuing pregnancy to 98% and at 10 weeks that goes up to 99.4%. My baby was shown to be measuring the right size for the stage i am at - around 11wks. But no heartbeat so died very recently. So if its right I'm in that unlucky 0.6%
Could it be possible they made a mistake. She did get a second woman to observe the screen to confirm. I have my ERPC booked for Monday and its driving me mad.
