8weeks pregnant told no heart beat

[Mandymjordan]

I need some advice my sister is 9or ten weeks pregnant she got a scan at 8 weeks and was told everything's fine heart beat was strong and that the baby looks good n big now on Sunday my sis started to bleed it is now Tuesday she's about 10 weeks now she went to the hospital they said there is no heartbeat and the baby was upside down and that it was due to no blood flow to the heart she's devastated to say the least they want her in tomorrow (wed) to make her pass it should she get a second opinion we are clinging on to our last bit of hope I think a day later is too soon to determine so quick hoping for a miracle xxx????

That is such devastating news for your sister, my heart goes out to her and your family.
I know you will be wanting to hold onto as much hope as possible, but sadly the reality is that if there is no heartbeat found, then the baby has died. Sonographers are well trained professions and they do not break news like that without absolute certainty.
I have experienced the heartbreak of miscarriage too, and it sounds like you will be great support to your sister at this awful time.

Thank you for your message I will b here no matter what for her but I've looked up and a lot of cases of misdiagnosis has happened in Ireland in the last few years as we all do I will cling on to the every ounce of hope and prayers I can till she goes in tomorrow for another check and a possible brought on miscarriage this page is great for support and I apriciate your reply xxx

This is one story I was reading mane false hope but hope none the less xxx www.thejournal.ie/portlaoise-baby-1830076-Dec2014/

Having hope is very important and miracles are always possible. But please fo be prepared for bad news as well.
I'll be thinking of you all tomorrow and please post an update if you get the chance.
Love and strength. X

Just an update consultant spent more than enough time double checking but baby has no heart beat unfortunately ... She is in hospital waiting for the treatment to take effect I'll be visiting her this evening baby is sleeping with the Angels now :(

I'm so so sorry. It's just the most heartbreaking news. You must all be devastated.
The medical treatment she will be receiving today in hospital is straight forward and she's in the best possible hands.
There's another board on Mumsnet here:
Your sister may find it helpful to read some threads for extra support there. They helped me a lot when I was in her position.

Sorry, forgot to post the link:

Love to you all.

I experienced the same, no heartbeat and 8+2, when i went back for medical management they were brilliant and I asked if they could scan just to make sure, they did this and didn't think I was crazy for asking.

I was glad, as the 1st one I didn't understand anything but at the 2nd they showed me what I was supposed to see and how they knew it wasn't right, helped me settle my mind so much more and made me a lot more comfortable with the medical management.

Update I visited my sister today didn't know what to say except explain I'm here for her her Partiner has been amazing with support for her she was in pain a bit earlier which is to be expected she is coping with it a lot better than I thought she discussed with her BF there future and how this sad thing has happened they are planing for the future travel then get a house then hopefully plan and try again I've so much pride in my sister she is so brave as is every woman going through or has been through a similar situation I'm very grateful for this form and apriciate the msgs she will b home hopefully tomorrow and today I saw her smile and b positive I love her so much good luck baby girl n can't wait to c u tomorrow xxxx
