[jocemarttelle]

Am 8 weeks pregnant n the dictor dont see a heartbeat n now he wants to do a DnC. What should I do?

[nikki680510806]

just wait. dont let them do anything to you yet. same thing happened to a friend of mine, she went to another doctor at 12 weeks and everything was fine. baby is doing great! so have hope. give that little baby a chance to grow! :)

[jocemarttelle]

I think its when the dr goes inside n remove the baby in other  words is like a abortion.

What is a d&c

[PrettiDoll01]

Im sorry to ask but what is a d&c

[jocemarttelle]

The dr didn't mention the blood level at all. He straight told me theirs no heartbeat n theirs nothing we could do. He did send me for another ultrasound 4 days later n said nothing changed. I Didn't like the fact his not giving my baby a chance to show hi/ her heartbeat. Am changing my dr n waiting on a second opinion.thanx I do have hope.

Iv had two perfect pregnancys and fell pregnant again in august and at 6weeks 3days started bleeding had scan everythink was fine then 3days later bleeding got worst another scan showed no heartbeat and was told d&c would be best and i would not recommend it until you have been given second opinion as i believe i seen my babys heartbeat. Good luck x

Did the doc do a Hcg test to see if your levels are dropping? Usually before recommending a DnC they do a blood test and/or wait a week or so and do another ultrasound to be absolutley sure. Sometimes dates are off and it's simply just that... Good luck with everything!

[jocemarttelle]

They did both a regular n a vaginal..thanx

[renee82]

How was the u/s done. Ab or vag? Because if the abdomal is really tuff to find at 8 weeks. They normally do vaginal for that early. But diffianlty get a second opinion. Good luck

Tiny321 @ how many weeks did u hear ur baby heartbeat?

[jocemarttelle]

Thanks I will changing dr monday n get a second opinion. Its my 3 pregnancy n never had a issue with my other 2.

[HelloKittyGurl]

Just wait and see. I would until I naturally miscarried. Think about getting a second opion before doing anything drastic.

[tiny321]

Yes wait I did I was told the same thing now I'm 17weeks preg and I hear my baby heartbeat god is so good

Ask for a second opinion first and have the scan at 10 weeks or later. U can also say u want to wait and see what happens
