To Whom It May Concern:

I am a 32-year-old woman who conceived on December 15, 1998, making me about seven and a half weeks pregnant. I'm very concerned because two days ago during a routine ultrasound, my doctor found that the embryo's heart rate was only about 60 BPM, and the embryo was a little small - less than 5 mm. Also, the gestational sac was a little enlarged and irregularly shaped. The doctor said I'd likely miscarry, but he has seen these situations turn themselves around. Do you have any thoughts? I'm scared!

Thanks.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
