My daughter is 17 weeks pregnant, has bled heavily and today been told their is no fluid but strong heartbeat?
My daughter is 17 weeks pregnant and started bleeding yesterday. The bleeding was significant and after a scan today has been informed there is no amniotic fluid however the heart beat is strong. They have informed her that they will scan her again next week. I'm concerned because today she collapsed while in hospital and was given antibiotics due to an infection after a high temp was discovered. The doctors have not discussed implications/risks of carrying on with pregnancy and I do wonder if they are just waiting for her to miscarriage. I believe in individual rights and being in possession of full facts. I'm concerned that my daughter will not be told of the risks such as abnormalities, non lung development due to docs role to save rather than terminate life. I don't want her waiting another week to be told theres nothing they can do and will have to wait until a stillbirth. Would they ask if she wanted a termination? I'm petrified that she is at more risk. Thanks
