Brief Answer:
Very less chance.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

There should be a heartbeat present after 5 weeks in ultrasound, as there is no heartbeat at 11 weeks so the chance of okay is very less.

I hope this answers your query. In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out. Wishing you good health.

were there cases of these that the baby was healthy?

Brief Answer:
Baby is not healthy.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

At 11 weeks absence of any heart beat suggests that the baby is not alright. Baby needs a heart beat to get proper blood circulation and to grow. The baby is not healthy. It is best to consult your gynecologist for further treatment.

Hope my answer is helpful. Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
