7 weeks 5 days no heart beat

7 weeks 5 days no heart beat

my wife is 7 weeks 5 days preg according to LMS and TV ultrasound today. The US tech said she found no HB and at this age she always does. She said she see them at 4.5 weeks. Our doc wants to do a DC off now. My wife has only had her HCG blood drawn once and that was last wed. and it was 3400. Why would they not take a second one to see if it went up before the DC. Please help!

I would make sure you are all comfortable with going through with the D&C. Ask for another ultrasound. If that confirms that the babies heart is no longer beating than you will need to ask the doctor to explain why a D&C is necessary so you are both aware of what is happening. I had a D&C after a partial miscarriage at 7wks, but my body was already trying to flush itself, which is what happens when the baby is no longer vital. My prayers are with you...
