A member asked:
I have been told that my baby has no heartbeat and measures 8.6mm therefore the pregnancy is not viable. but my conception was only 6 weeks ago.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Viable pregnancy ?: At six weeks post ovulation, the pregnancy is dated as about "8 weeks", and an ultrasound can definitely detect a fetal heartbeat if present. A repeat ultrasound should be definitive in another week if the dates are not precise, but a quantitative test for HCG may also be helpful. Ask your OB physician for advice on this.
