Hello
I understand your concern.
Cardiac activity in foetus appears normally by 7 weeks and can be detected by Ultrasound.
If cardiac activity is not there other factors like gestational sac and visibility of foeatal pole is determined.
It is likely that miscarriage has occured if these 3 factors are not commensurate with the gestational age.
You need to meet gynaecologist and see the best option which will work for you.
Hope I answered ypur query.
Wish you good health.
Regards.
