My doctor was optimistic, my blood panels were perfect, my nutrition was optimal, no sugar in literally 3 years, I had even been off of caffeine for 5 months because I’m not one to turn down a dare. My chances of success might have been higher because of my lifestyle and a successful previous pregnancy. And we all think that these are just statistics until it happens to us. 1 in 4, after a positive test, never result in a healthy baby. Realistically, 25% or more of all KNOWN pregnancies end in miscarriage. You know, I loathe the word “miscarriage.” It implies fault, like you failed to carry this child to term. This is about knowing that this quiet experience happens to many, many people, and no one talks about it.
#No heartbeat at 6 weeks how to#
This isn’t an article about what to do and how to cope. My summer baby - so wanted for so many years - was not coming after all. My throat felt engorged, like it was choking the life out of me. The space for ultrasound pictures left in the back of the wedding albums for our parents, I filled with a newer picture of the three of us and a thank-you note.Īnd then I got into bed, covered my head, and cried silently. I hurriedly hid the “big brother” gift that I had prepared for my 10-year-old son. Had I made it all up? All the symptoms I had excitedly told him about as he had been working out of town, the nausea, fatigue, weight gain, had I imagined it? I looked over at my husband, embarrassed, ashamed. So there was never a heartbeat at all? I didn't want to understand. How could I have not known? Why did my body still think it was pregnant? No fetal pole. It was almost to the day that I had caught that terrible cold. My body went cold as she traced the yolk sac, measuring 6 weeks, 3 days. Why was the screen empty? That’s not what a 9-week ultrasound should look like. The blurred movement and snap! another picture. Meanwhile if the diagnosis is confirmed please get a medical/surgical termination done.The tech was fast. You do not need any tests or precautions and no medicines except folic acid in the next pregnancy also. We cannot prevent these early abortions and even if we could we should not as it would lead to abnormal babies. This is natural selection (Darwinism) and we should not interfere in it. Please do not worry there are no faults in you and there are no precaution or drugs, which prevent such abortions, and even if there were, we would not like to use them. Read: Can I become a mother after recurrent abortions? You do not have to wait at all before you plan another one (the traditional advice of waiting for 6 months has no proven scientific rationale). Once the diagnosis is confirmed by a good ultrasound examination you should abort this pregnancy. Since you already have a normal child there is nothing to worry. Reproductive wastage is an unavoidable event in nature.
Almost 50% of all early pregnancies abort (about 20% after a diagnosis and others even earlier). This aborts and it is best that it aborts rather than lead to an abnormal baby. When an abnormal sperm or egg mates, we get an abnormal fetus. In any given semen specimen about 30% sperms are abnormal and by the same logic many eggs are abnormal as well. This is because of an abnormality in the foetus and is only an accident of nature. Most early abortions are because of what is called an anembryoic pregnancy meaning thereby that the fetus is never really formed. What is the possibility of the death of the fetus? Can food poisoning harm the fetus? When can I get pregnant again? If no bleeding is spotted, doctor advised me to visit again to remove it. Doctor told me that the fetus might come out any time. I underwent one more ultrasound scanning and the doctor told me that the heartbeat of fetus can't be heard and it has no growth. Result of ultrasound scan showed the fetus growth about 5 to 6 weeks of age. I was prescribed folic acid tablets on my first visit. My pregnancy test done last month was positive. I had regular menstrual periods of 28 days cycle. My last menstrual period was 3 months ago. I had been suffering from stress/tension earlier and I had been taking medication for the same. I stopped the medicine after feeling no headache for one month. When we visited India, I consulted a doctor there who prescribed me Sibelium 0.5 mg once daily. I was also suffering from migraine and was prescribed Inderal tablets, which I took for almost two months. The doctor prescribed me Marvelon tablets for six months. I was suffering from excessive bleeding during menstruation. Q: I am a 30 years old housewife, residing in Saudi Arabia.
