What Does The Following Ultrasound Report Indicate?
I went for a ultrasound for the second time to get my due date and see the baby heartbeat . I m said to be 6wks and 5 days. The technicians stated the baby was tiny as a peanut and that it was hard to see a heart beat . One stated she saw one and after a while she stated she didn t. So basically there stating my baby is dead. They told me I could get another one done beforehand or let nature take its course. They also asked me was I sure about my last period.

Hello
Fetal heart beast should be visualized by this period.
You may require follow up scan after 10 days to see progression.
But pea nut size of fetus is not a healthy sign.
If fetal heart beat/fetal parts is not visualized in follow up scan then it may be considered as a missed abortion.
