I'm so sorry you are going through this.  I too had a 'missed miscarriage' at 12 weeks.  I agree with Holly, HCG levels should continue to be drawn every 2-3 days to ensure your hormone levels are indeed decreasing.  Ultrasound alone cannot diagnose a MM.  Feel free to PM if I can help in any way.

FWIW, RNY does not CAUSE miscarriages or fetal abnormalities.  Babies can thrive despite the very worst conditions (look at women that bear children in starving, 3rd world countries).  Babies are parasitic by design and will get everything they need from mom.  I'm not advocating dieting or starving ones' self, but even without 100% proper nutrition, a baby can and will survive off of the stores in mom's system.

Hugs and healing,
