8 weeks and no heart beat detected.

Had my first ultrasound today. I am supposed to be 8 weeks, and we did come to that conclusion based on the crown to rump size, however the transvaginal ultrasound did not show a heart beat. I'm sick to my stomach from this. I got another blood test, and it said my hCG levels were over 240,000, which is normal for 8 weeks, meaning if my baby is dead, it must have died within the last week or so. I don't really know what to do. All I know is this would probably be my third miscarriage, so I'm starting to lose hope in the idea that I can even bear children. All I can do at this point is wait and find out if it's a non viable pregnancy and if so, if it will take care of itself. How do I keep myself busy until then? I can't even sleep.

Thank you so much. I'm so nervous, but I really hope I am able to finally carry a baby to term someday, especially since I am finally with the person I can say with full confidance is my life partner. Thank you.

Hi babe. I myself have sufferd 3 miscarriages. I am now pregnant again (15 weeks) so please don't lose hope! I totally understand how you feel. One loss is hard enough without having to deal with multiple losses. Keep trying because it WILL happen xx lots of love from a survivor of 3 miscarriages xx

If it does happen or even if not ask a doc about looking more into your body and what may be some of the problems causing it to be more hard for you to carry a baby so you know for the future.

Thank you both very much. I'm hoping that I don't have to go through another miscarriage but if that's the case I guess I will just have to figure it out from there. Not much else to do.
