Hi just need some honest advice. I went for my ds yesterday and was told I was measuring at 7.5 weeks and no heartbeat could be detected. I wasn't offered a ts I was just told to go to emergency gynaecology to discuss my options. I still feel pregnant and I'm having all of the pregnancy symptoms. I've been told to wait 2 weeks for another scan as I said I wanted to let nature take its course if . I have had no miscarriage symptoms at all!! I've had 2 miscarriages in the past and 2 healthy pregnancies and have 2 children as a result of that. Please can I have so advice as I'm so confused and upset I don't know what to do am I holding on to false hope or are my instincts right??

Awwww I'm so sorry for your loss. I went for my 12 week scan on the 7th June and was told then that our baby was measuring at 7 weeks 3 days with no heartbeat. We had no idea and neither did my body - it's called a missed Miscarriage or a silent miscarriage.

I was told it was procedure to wait a week to be rescanned which I did and the baby didn't change in size so confirmed it had died.

I was given three options, leave it to happen naturally, medical management or surgical management. I chose medical management as I figured if my body hadn't realised in the five weeks since it died i didn't want to rely on it doing it in its own time and lost the baby on the 20th June. I also wanted to try again asap so although the whole situation was terribly upsetting I am now back trying.

Sending all my love to you xx
