Hello, I am 9.5 weeks pregnant and went for a obgyn appointment at 8 week 6 days, doctor did the ultrasound and told about no heartbeat, baby was about 8 week size. She told me that I will miscarry eventually in few weeks. But I am waiting for another ultrasound at 10 week in the hope of heartbeat. I want to know the chances of heartbeat being visible at 10 weeks. Please help!

Hi l am from Indore.In your case you may go for transvaginal ultrasound for better' visualisation of cardiac pulsations of embroy. Usualy cardiac pulsations are seen in 5to 6 weeks in TVS and 6 weeks in abdominal ultrasound. If cardiac pulsations are absent and gest. Age of your baby is 8 weeks then it is very less chance to come or observe foetal cardiac pulsations. So my suggestion is go for TVS .If cardiac pulsations is present then ok if absent then their is no benefit to wait.
