10 weeks, fetus 10 weeks but no heartbeat

[VONZ]

I went for my first u/s when I was 10 weeks & 5 days. The midwife verified the size & development of fetus also 10 weeks & 5 days, however we could not trace a heartbeat. Also had a transvaginal u/s with the same result. This means that the fetus died that day or night previously. This is all too much for me to comprehend. The gyno confirmed diagnosis. Since 3 days I no longer feel pregnant & am now waiting to miscarry. I am overwhelmed with emotions & tried to continue working, however could not so therefore I am at home with my daugther (2 y/o) How long will it take to Miscarry? I want to let nature take its course, however I have an appt at the gyno on Thurs (2 weeks after no hb traced) to discuss D&C etc. Has anyone been in the same situation????

We went in this week for a 15week check-up, no heart beat found with ultrasound or sonogram and baby measured at 10 weeks. D&C scheduled for Monday, should we even bother with a second look as it seems in this type of situation, it usually does mean miscarriage.  We were just shocked as I have had no signs of miscarriage and body still feels pregnant.

I'm sorry, but if ultrasound shows there is no heartbeat the baby has passed and won't come back to life. You can choose to sit and hope it will naturally pass, but be warned it could take several weeks to do so and can drag the process out much longer. My dad's girlfriend carried her baby for 11 weeks after it died and had no idea. (She had missed two doctors appointments due to being away on vacation and such) You should also be warned that the longer the remains do stay inside you, the more you risk infection which in turn can damage your fertility or cause many other problems.

I had a 16 weeks miscarried. There were no heartbeat and it took less than a week to happen.
I got pregnant again in  8 years. He is now 13 and is a  healthy boy.

I was 9 1/2 wks expecting when I had to go to the ER for very light blood streaked discharge,  but I have 4 kids, the baby is 11 months. I never had any spotting with any of them, so when I saw it, I knew it was odd for my body. After a vaginal u/s, I was told the fetus had no heartbeat, and had stopped growing at 6wks gestation. 2 days later, a second u/s confirmed that information. So I have been carrying a baby that has passed away for  4wks? The doctor suggests a d &c because I'm not expelling. (the blood streaks, and brownish spotting stopped for the most part. It comes about once every 36hrs as I wipe using the restroom) I'm being told that the demise probably occurred 4wks ago.  I have an appoint for the procedure on Tues (it's sunday night) I REALLY don't want to do it. I didn't want to loose the baby, why would I want to take myself there, strip my clothes off and let a stranger take something from me that's my miracle... NO. I don't know how long I can continue to wait to expel at home, naturally. Emotionally, and mentally I'm so messed up. Could there still be hope for me?  I believe in miracles and my Lord Jesus, and i have been asking Him to show me His Will & plan, but I'm so cluttered in my own head, when I think I hear I tlk myself into the opposite...Any words would be appreciated
