Your description is inadequate. You said , "loss of heart beat". This is not a diagnosis. Every foetus who is lost will lose its heart beat, but our diagnosis is "why it lost the heart beat?"
If you give us clinical details of your examination during your 20 weeks of pregnancy then we may make a guess.
Your age is 33 years. It is rather late for first pregnancy. So you should not waste time. You may plan your next pregnancy now.
Next Steps
You may consult me on Practo with a few relevant points like which city you belong to. There may be some Centres who deal with high risk pregnancy. We may advise you based on your investigations done during first pregnancy.
