Miscarriage: Unfortunately, there are several different criteria for diagnosing a miscarriage, and one of them is a fetal pole measuring more than 7 mm without a heartbeat. It appears that this pregnancy meets that criteria. Usually this is a pregnancy that was chromosomally abnormal, and this is nature's way of taking care of the problem. But you can always choose to wait longer and do another ultrasound.

If my ultrasound showed a crown rump length of 4 mm before I miscarried - could I still have a complete molar pregnancy? I know for Partial molar, you might see a fetus with other growth. My question is - does "something" that showed a crown rump length
