hello. i just have a quick question to see if anyone has any experience with this. i have a 3 year old dsh that bolted outside and came back home with a surprise. my husband and i meant to have her spayed years ago but living overseas, deployments and general army life and all that it entails had stalled the process for us. i took her to the vet about a week and a half ago and they did bloodwork and an ultrasound and said they could see at least one kitten very well, and it had a strong heartbeat. i had brought her in initially because she had some vaginal bleeding. they said she may be aborting them, but to just watch and wait. the bleeding had stopped and she was acting normally. about 2 days ago i noticed there was a little more bleeding, not much, but enough to notice. i brought her in for another ultrasound today and they said there are two kittens, their skeletons have developed, but they couldnt see any movements or heartbeats. the vet told me that it doesn't mean they arent viable, they just dont know. could it be possible for them to miss heartbeats at 7.5(ish) weeks? or should i prepare myself? they said that my cat is doing just fine. shes bright and alert. bloodwork and urinalyasis is good. im just real concerned. any advice would be wonderful. thank you!
