No Heart Beat For Unborn Baby

How Dangerous is it for a Mom that is still pregnant however, the baby is dead?
What is the health risk for mom?

If you wait too long then it could be a problem with things like infection and blood coagulation issues.  You should find out your blood type too especially the RH factor. It also depends on how far along you are. If you are in the first trimester waiting 2-3 weeks should not be a problem as long as there is no continuous bleeding and the above factors I discussed are looked into.

This Mom is 9 wks prenant. I don't know here blood type however, she's not bleeding and seems
to be doing fine. Just hope that everything goes well with her. Thanks for taking the time that you
answered me back.
