Early scan statistics


I thought that this may interest some people...

At 6 weeks we can see the gestation sac and yolk in the womb. The risk for miscarriage at this stage is approximately 10%

At 7 weeks we can see a heartbeat. The risk for miscarriage at this stage is approximately 5%

At 8 weeks, if the heartbeat is present, your risk for miscarriage is now only 2%

At 10 weeks, if the heartbeat is present and the baby measures appropriately for your dates, the risk for miscarriage is now 1%

the stats i got given were a little diff but not far off so either way all seems good

'Miscarriage affects one in every four women. The highest risk period is between 4 and 6 weeks. Once 8 or 9 weeks are reached and the baby's heart beat is seen on a scan there is only a 4% to 5% chance of miscarriage, depending on the speed of the heart-beat. It should be 120 to 160 times per minute. (BMP) The risk then drops to between 5% and 8% and continues to drop as the pregnancy proceeds.'
