Hello. At 15 weeks, structures in the heart are still difficult to visualise. It may be that the baby and organs are just too small for the technician to see clearly and a repeat scan in 2-3 weeks will give a clearer indication. It is true that if there were less then 4 heart chambers that there would be a major heart defect in the baby but there is still hope that all 4 chambers will be visualised later. Many heart defects are repairable with surgery, including major defects. Unfortunately not all pregnacies such as this end so well. I wish you all the best and my prayers are with you.
