8 week scan - measured 6w 1d - no heartbeat

i had a private scan today and after an internal scan the sonographer could not find a heartbeat and said I am measuring 2 weeks behind what I expect based on LMP.

I am pretty certain of ovulation dates and with no heartbeat feel this will only end in one outcome.

has anyone experienced similar and had a successful pregnancy? Preparing ourselves and we have a rescan next week to confirm.

I had this (but there was a heartbeat). Baby measured 6 weeks but I should have been 8 weeks. As there was a heartbeat I was told not to worry. It took 4 weeks later until I naturally miscarried.

Sorry you are going through this 😔

If you are sure ovulation dates then I’d be preparing for bad news.. sometimes they do measure behind as nobody knows when implantation takes place. Two weeks however is a long time and more often than not, it’s not good news.

@Rancor so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing.

@Lulu89x I am pretty confident unfortunately.
