Empty sac at 10 weeks but not at 6 weeks?

Hi everyone,

Got the devastating news at our reassurance scan today that we had an empty sac and baby must have stopped growing.

We had an early scan at 6 weeks ish and all was perfect, yolk sac and baby with a little fluttering heart beat was seen. So I guess my question is did my body just absorb the baby? I've been sick and very pregnant the past few weeks and just can't get my head around it.

Don't be scared of upsetting my feelings or crushing my false hope as I know I have lost baby and an empty sac at 10 weeks is no longer viable. Just so sad... a much wanted little baby that took a long while to conceive 😔xx

Sorry for your loss op Flowers

Could it have been a blighted ovum? I had one at 13 weeks but indspnt have an early scan so can’t have been sure if there was anything there early on, but they told me that a blighted ovum is when the embryo absorbs early on or just never develops.

Either way there’s nothing you could’ve done and unfortunately it’s just one of those things, I’ve had a baby since then so it will happen for you xx
