Dr's don't allow you to carry a dead fetus for 6 weeks, they might let you have a little time to miscarry on your own, and if it didn't happen then they would medically or surgically complete the miscarriage, there is a risk of infection among other things if the dead tissue is allowed to remain inside the womb.

AnswerI recently had a miscarriage. I had prior signs. When I went to see the early loss clinic, they told me that I had 3 choices, wait for the natural miscarriage, the pill or a D&C. They told me the pros and cons of all. They said that the natural method can take a long time and can be emotionally hard if it takes a long time. They didn't say to me that it would eventually have to be taken out because of a risk of infection. There is risk of infection under all circumstances. Also, I was definitely almost 12 weeks pregnant and the ultrasound showed that the fetus had stopped developing at 5 weeks. That means the dead fetus was in me for 7 weeks. It is very common. (It happened to me with a prior miscarriage as well.) If the above comment is true (Doctors not allowing dead tissue in the womb) then they would have scheduled for me for an immediate emergency D&C in both cases. However, in both cases, I was told that I could either wait for the natural method that could take anywhere from a week to months, have a D&C or take a pill to help to expell the fetus. I had a complete miscarriage the next day.
