It’s called a blighted ovum.

By the way, you are definitely pregnant. It’s horrible because you still get all the hormones, put on weight, swollen boobs.

I was 10 weeks along on one of them, and I had to have a D&C.

You think you are going to have a baby, then they look at the ultrasound and there isn’t anything in the gestational sac. Then I had to have a darn D&C because my body wasn’t naturally taking care of things, and there can be complications if you let it stay in your uterus. It was a very awful time for me.
