My wife is currently 8 weeks pregnant, and during her last ultrasound, they couldn't detect any cardiac activity. The final report mentioned something about a likely missed abortion. Our gynecologist wants us to continue with the medication since there haven't been any miscarriage symptoms yet. We're pretty nervous about this and are anxiously waiting for the next ultrasound in 10 days. Could you shed some light on what to possibly expect? Is there still a chance for positive news? We're just trying to understand all of this.

Hi, It is usually a very stressful time if a heart beat is not discovered. Sometimes it can come a bit later and sometimes it can lead due to a miscarriage. In a missed abortion if usually dont get any symptoms.

I'm feeling a bit worried about my wife's situation. She's three months pregnant, just at the start of her 14th week. We live in a building where our apartment is on the third floor, and there's no lift. Every weekday, she has to go down 60 steps in the morning to head to the office, and then back up those 60 steps again in the evening. Is it safe for her and the baby to be doing this every day, or could it have any negative effects on her pregnancy? I'd appreciate any advice on this.
yes she can do no worries
