New Info - Does This Mean Theres No Hope?

[Hungrysumo]

Ok so my doctor finally shared my ultrasound information with me (which she should've done in the first place anyway) and I guess after seeing it and doing a little research it really does make me lose what little hope I have. I'll share the info below, does anyone think they can tell me if the info there means that it's really hopeless?

PELVIS UTRASOUND

** HISTORY **: Viabilty/Dates

** FINDINGS **: There is an intrauterine demise. There is a fetal pole with a crown-rump length of 5 mm and a sac diameter of 20 mm both corresponding to a menstral age of 6 wks and 2 days. No fetal cardiac activity was observed.

** Impression **: Intrauterine demise of 6 w 2 d.

Sorry for your loss.  Hope you get some answers.  Good luck

Oh hun, I'm so sorry and know this is very emotional.  I'm glad they are going to test you and try to find out the problem.  I think most things are treatable and you can go on to have a healthy pregnancy.  We're always around if you need to talk.  TC

Also, thank all of you for your support. It has been so uplifting and comforting in this past week. This forum and its people are blessings!

I ended up doing the chemical termination today as my U/S showed no fetal growth or hb and the sac around it was starting to become misshapen (the doc said that was possibly my body try to reabsorb the tissue),

very sad and exhausted right now. In 6 weeks I will be undergoing the whole gamut of tests to find out why I can not produce a viable pregnancy. Let's hope they can help me so the next time won't be another tragedy.

wait for the second ultrasound.  And yep, demise is just bc that's their opinion bc of no heartbeat, but like others have said it may be too early.  I'd do just what you are doing....don't take the med, don't do the D&C and just wait.  One week will tell me what's really going on.

she only put demise in there because she thinks that, remember about all the other ladies that have waited another 1-2 weeks then get to see heart beat, dont give up completely yet just await till the next u/s

I didn't see a heartbeat with my first son till 6w5d.  (We went in at 6w1d and there was no heartbeat yet) with my second 7w4 d.  You may have ovulated late.  I still say ur making the right decision by waiting.  Ultrasound is not a perfect science.  I still say there's hope.  Good luck

Sorry, a little info on the situation: I was told at my last ultrasound that I was 6wks 2d with no heartbeat and urged to do an immediate D& C. I decided to wait a week for a second U/S but in the meantime the nurse practioner who did my U/S sent me this to try and confirm to me that there's no hope and to just take the meds she gave me to induce miscarriage.

I'm going to wait for my U/S but this does achieve what the NP wanted and makes me lose some hope.
