A member asked:
At my 20 week visit, the doctor could not hear a heartbeat and is sending me for an ultrasound in the morning. does this mean the pregnancy ended?

Not necessarily: It is certainly possible that the doc just couldn't find it due to baby's position. Ultrasound will tell you. Good luck and i hope everything turns out well.
