Ultrasound Shows Yolk Sac, Fetus, No Visible Heart Rate. Miscarriage?
Hi,
Went with My wife to the gynaecologist and had a vaginal US done in gest week 7.1 , good yolk sac and fetus but no visible heart rate. He told us that a new US is recomandable in 1-2 week to be sure and that heart avtivity is sometimes not easily visible but should be seen from aprox 8 weeks?
Is this true or should we expect miscarriage though everything else looken normal according to his evaluation?
