Also known as Incomplete Miscarriage, is very rare type of miscarriage. What happens is that the woman's body fails to acknowledge the death of the unborn baby. In this case, it is not aborted. In other words, no actual miscarriage happens because the unborn baby remains in the womb of the mother. Missed miscarriages often happen during the first 12 weeks after conception.

Not rare at all i'm afraid it happens rather a lot. A miscarriage can be 'induced' or an ERPC (evacuation of retained products of conception)performed under general anaesthetic.

Unfortunately some couples find out at the 12 week scan - one of the reasons many people choose not to tell anyone they are pregnant before the scan.

Missed miscarriage is simply as if the fetus is normal no problem at all. But actually the fetus already died inside your womb.

that's why prenatal check up is very important. This was happened to my bestfriend. She just noticed it at already 14 weeks, it made her so depressed but the doctor advises really to remove it or else it will harm her life.

Missed miscarriage is when the body doesn't recognize the death of the fetus. This could also be called as incomplete miscarriage. This mostly occur within the first 12 weeks after conception.

this is a rare type of miscarriage in which the body fails to recognize the death of an unborn child and does not simultaneously abort. Usually, this missed miscarriage will be identified when no fetal heart rate can be heard through echo-Doppler testing.

well, this missed miscarriage can be then confirmed by ultrasound. And if this confirmed, the baby should be removed inside the womb of a mother coz this can harm her.
