Empty Gestational Sac at 10 Weeks

This is my first pregnancy. I came for the first scan when I was 8 weeks and the doc mentioned that they couldn't detect anything as it was too small. 2 weeks later I came for the scan again, and the doc seemed confident to say that this pregnancy will be failure due to an empty sac with no visible embryo. The gestational sac shape is also abnormal. I bought a cheap doppler to check for any heartbeat, it is relatively on the low side between 70+ to 90+ BPM which is unusual for a 10 weeks fetus. It was very confusing how I could able to detect a little heartbeat but the sonographer/doc are unable to detect any embryo. Does anyone experiencing anything similar to mine?

Hi dear, so sorry to hear about the scan findings. If you heard a heartbeat that’s 70+ to 90+, it’s likely to be your heartbeat that you’re hearing. This must be a very difficult and confusing time for you. Please try to get some rest and spend time with loved ones ❤️

Yes it is very confusing for us to try figure out what was happening. but thank you. I was given a week of MC so I'll try to get plenty of rest.
