17wks Pregnant, Dr can't find bubs heart beat :(

Hi ladies,
I'm 17wks preg with bub #3, I started feeling bub move pretty early on in the pregnancy but the last week or so haven't felt any movement at all. I just went to the Dr and he couldn't find a heart beat :( I am having a scan on Friday. I had a MC before this pregnancy and I don't know if I could handle going threw that again... Has anyone else been in a similar situation?? How did it turn out for you?? Starting to get really worried :(

Oh honey I really hope everything's ok!! Are you able to get in at local hospital or anywhere sooner? The stress can't be good for you. I'm sorry to hear this and will keep everything crossed for you!!

I don't have any advice but having to wait until Friday is very unfair. I hope you get seen to earlier than that and there is a happy outcome. Sending hugs xxx

At 33 weeks they tried to find my DD's heartbeat for 25 mins before they eventually got it...longest 25 mins of my life. I hope your bub is hiding/changed positions aswell. I agree waiting til Friday seems in excess to me... I would probably insist on a scan earlier personally. Wish you the best of luck!
