What Causes Absence Of Fetal Heartbeat In Pregnancy?

Went to dr on Thursday for first prenatal appt. Everything seemed to be going fine til they did vaginal ultrasound and couldn't find fetal heartbeat. The baby measured exactly to the day the size it should be from the due date they gave me. Do you think it is possible they just missed the heartbeat or did my baby die the same day I went to dr? I have shown NO signs of miscarriage...

Hello, yes there can be missed abortion and no sign of miscarriage.
In case you have very early pregnancy then wait for 1 week, get a repeat scan and see for the results.
In case you have any questions in future you can contact me directly on http://bit.ly/drmanishajain
