A blighted ovum is when the sperm and egg meet and implant - the yolk sac grows, but usually no fetal pole (no baby) or sometimes there is a fetal pole, with no heartbeat. You still feel very pregnant because you have the pregnancy hormone due to the placenta beginning to form. You may miscarry naturally, but sometimes that takes weeks. They can do a d&C for a suction currettage (which is done in the office, as opposed to the D&C).

I am not sure what is meant by toasted, but if you are referring to the slang word for "exhausted," there were a number of points in the 1990s, when she was reported to have suffered from exhaustion; in one case, in 1992, this was one reason she was said to have had a miscarriage.

I went to A&E with a bad kidney infection, were they told me i was about 7 weeks pregnant, which I had no idea about! about 3 weeks later I had a miscarriage, I saw my kidney doctor yesterday and he said that there is a chance it could have caused it but assured me the antibiotics I was on were safe, he said the more likely answer is I had a raised temperature so this could have factored in the miscarriage.
