Friend Needs Help!! Please

[avik7]

hey girls i have a friend that i think is around 7 to 8 weeks preg ( i dont know too many details yet) she went in for her first u/s not sure if transvag or not. they told her there was a sac but no baby. They havent done any bloodwork and wanted to sched a d&c right away. dont u think they should do bloodwork before jumping into a d&c. my sis had a blighted ovum around 8 or 9 weeks in sept and her doc did 4 rounds of bloodwork before they would do a d&c. do u think my friend has a chance that the baby is okay or most likely a blighted ovum..has this happened to anyone and the baby ended up showing up? the doc said if she had a tilted uterus that it could be "hiding" the baby! Thanks in advance for ur advice!

Seems a little hasty!  I think she should ask for more bloodwork and a follow up scan in another week.  EVEN then, before the d&c if that is what she chooses to do/schedule, I would insist on seeing the ultrasound before they put me under.

if that happened to me, i'd insist on bloodwork and a follow up scan. I'd have to be 100% certain that i'd miscarried before i agreed to a d and c.
