empty sacs

So ladies the doctor keep saying that all he see is an empty sac. I'm 7 weeks and some day pregn. and really worried. By this time we should be able to see more than just the sac. And i have 2 sacs and the doctor says they are both empty. I had 2 m/c last year on june and october both between 5 and 7 weeks. With the second pregnancy we also had the heartbeat and everything looked normal until one day the heart stopped.Until last week the hcg was going up. I have to call tomorrow to see what was the result for today. Is any possibility that this pregnancy is viable? I have done tests after my second m/c and if this time i to m/c there aren't other tests to do. Why this keep hapening? Is it because i conceve using meds?

Im 8w1d today, and as of yesterday, same situation...healthy sac, placenta, but NO sign of baby at all...no yolk sac, no fetal pole. My hcg levels 54000, 61000 and doc said NO DOUBT should be able to see a baby with those levels. So, im sitting here waiting for what they term the "inevitable".
Sorry for all u are going thru. (((hugs))) good luck

I just recently went through the same thing after 7 wks of only seeing only a sac, I miscarried on last Friday night. Which would have been 8wks for me. I pray this will not be your case. It was very hard for me since this was my first miscarriage. My doctor keep telling me by now we should be seeing more than a sac. However, after reading many storys by other women who experience the same things. Some went back in 8wks and a heartbeat showed up. Whatever God will is; it will be done. I am praying for you that things will work out for you. God Bless

i had the same thing.... not using meds.
twice in a row...

no fetal pole...did have a yolk sac... but that was it.
mc both times.

so i don't think its a med issue.

give it a few more weeks and don't give up if it doesn't work out this time..... now i'm 27 weeks preg.

So sorry for what you are going through, I know it's tough, i have been there...you should be able to see "something" in the sac, fetal pole,  something by this point.. I saw a hb at 7 weeks and then went back at 8 1/2 and it was not beating anymore.. that was really hard. it wouldn't have been so difficult to deal with if there would have never been a hb. I just feel that God has a plan for all of us and we have to let him work, i have had 2 mc's and two healthy pregnancys, just hang in there, it will happen for you at some point, just have faith.... I doubt it's the meds, there are a lot of sucess stories with using the meds to help so don't beat yourself up over that....be strong, let go and let God.
