Is this a sign of miscarriage?

So I had an ultrasound on Monday because the doctor couldn't find my baby's heartbeat with a doppler Friday afternoon, and they read me my results today. The doctor told me I'm not as far along as I believed to be. I thought I was thirteen weeks and he said I'm actually eleven. My baby's heartbeat is at 92 bmp, and he said that's relatively low for eleven weeks. He also told me he doesn't know if that heart rate is mine or the baby's. I'm afraid I miscarried at eleven weeks and that the heartbeat they recorded was mine. I'm not bleeding, so idk what to think. Has anyone gone through something similar? Help, please ....

Missourimammaofthree that's not true you can have a missed miscarriage  which has no signs of a miscarriage  but the baby is no longer living but your body is still trying to hold  onto the pregnancy  I hope that's not the case with you and that your baby is fine

Go to another dr, totally agree on that! Little ones hb should be higher then 92 at 11 weeks. They seen my little one on u/s at 7 weeks found fetal pole and then 8 weeks seen baby. But baby could be hiding. If they couldn't see baby with u/s they should have done a vaginal u/s!
Good luck!

I have an ultrasound appointment with another doctor on the 22nd. I just don't know what to think or do. I'm trying not to stress out too much cus that's bad for the baby, but with all this not knowing is taking a toll on me. I'm just hoping my baby is okay

Get a 2nd Opinion if anything. Do not let them make you have a d&c done. First see if everything okay

That makes no sense.   My clinic has two different types of ultrasound that they have used on me.  Both times we could see the baby and get his heartbeat. Right there in the clinic room. That was at 12 weeks and 16 weeks.   Then at 20 weeks I was sent for the main ultrasound in the hospital radiology unit.  Seems odd that he didn't use these resources on you.  Hope the ultrasound Monday confirms everything is okay.  If you had a miscarriage you would have known it for sure.  Keep us posted.

Go to another doctor if you're  nervous (just to see if they give you the same answer)I went to the er Monday to check on my baby because I was feeling sick and I had a first look and today I went for a regular check up and the baby was hiding. Sometimes you just need a second opinion I'm only seven weeks but the er also took their time to make sure we were ok
