I'm so sorry, but yes, at eight weeks - hCG levels should still be rising and the heart beat should be clearly visible on a scan.

The tissue may be absorbed or you will pass it during what most likely will be similar to a heavy - crampy period. If you don't start having a flow your doctor may suggest doing a D & C, I would request another sonogram and a last hCG level to be sure the level has dropped and the heart beat is not evident before the D & C, if there is any question in your mind.

Usually a miscarriage this early is due to severe abnormalities - and is not an indication of infertility or your ability to get pregnant or to carry a pregnancy.

Heartbeat rate of only 80 and bad spotting at week 7 is it still possible that its not a miscarriage?

Actually a more scientific answer shows that low heart rates do show increased chances of miscarriage. The normal heartrate of a 7 week embryo is 135. Heart rates of less that 100 show increased chances of miscarriage. Not all end in miscarriage, but several do.
