Hi,

I understand your concern and empathize with you.

It has been 6 weeks now that your wife is pregnant and no cardiac activity is seen. This means that there is no functional fetal heart at all. I am sorry about this. It seems like it is a missed abortion. You must let your wife go in for abortion as advised by the doctor.

This would not come in way of her future pregnancies.

It is better not to wait any longer and go ahead with the procedure.

I wish you both best of luck.
