Congratulations on reaching the 7-week mark in your pregnancy! Seeing a heartbeat on an ultrasound is a significant milestone and a reassuring sign that your pregnancy is progressing well. However, it’s natural to have concerns about the chances of miscarriage at this stage.
What Are the Chances of Miscarriage at 7 Weeks Pregnant?
The risk of miscarriage decreases significantly after seeing a heartbeat on an ultrasound. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the risk of miscarriage drops to 5% after a heartbeat is detected at 6-7 weeks. This means that the vast majority of pregnancies with a heartbeat at 7 weeks will continue to a healthy delivery.
It’s important to note that the risk of miscarriage is higher in certain situations, such as if you have a history of miscarriage, are over 35 years old, or have certain medical conditions. Your healthcare provider can help you understand your individual risk factors and provide personalized guidance.
