I went for my 12 week scan today, imagining we would get some great pictures of the baby. It didn't turn out as I expected. The woman who did the scan found pretty much an empty fetal sack. The sack was the right size for a 13 week pregnancy. The baby stopped growing really early. Probably stopped at about 5-6 weeks but my body carried on developing as if I was still pregnant. I had no symptoms of a miscarriage - no bleeding, pain or discomfort. I had quite bad morning sickness from week 7 onwards. My boobs were bigger. Needless to say, I am completely shocked. I was told that a medical miscarriage would be best for me as I only have the lining and sack to get rid of. Has anyone had one of these? Do you think it is better than a D&C? Any anecdotes and guidance would help xx
