Diagnosed with Threatened miscarriage.help!

[PerfctlyFlawed05]

Ok, I found out a week ago via home pregnancy test that I am pregnant, (clear blue easy digital) and my boyfriend and i were SOOO excited. made an appointment at the free clinic for the confirmation by a nurse and to see how far along i was..(I am guessing im around 5 or 6 weeks LMP started dec 3rd or 4th) that was supposed to be thursday at 2 30
wednesday at work i noticed i was having slight cramping and spotting, not enough for a pad but just when i would pee there would be very light pink on the toilet paper.
thursday came.. had more cramps and started to bleed, like on a period. also started to pass blood clots, freaked out that i was having a miscarriage my boyfriend and i and  my mom went to the ER right away.
we got there at 3pm (clinic said go to ER cuz they cant do anything at the clinic for it)
went to ER, got blood pressure done and stuff... finally got into a room and got blood  taken, took a while since i have small veins. doctor told me briefly what they wanna do like to make sure its not ectopic and asked if that was clear and i said yea and he said "yea right.. clear as mudd" and i was like...umm? i didnt know if he was being an *** or trying to be funny.
after waiting for an hour or so i got a pelvic exam, remember i am still bleeding so it was nasty, the doctor at that point was rude he came into the room, im laying there in stirrups and a robe thing and a blanket over my legs, he comes up and said "any questions?" and i said "um,... no?" i figured since he knew this is my 1st pregnancy he would walk me through what he is gonna do or something. but he didnt, he was poking and prodding and telling the nurse i was resisting... when i wasnt!! i did have to pee! but i wasnt squeezing anything closed or anything lol i just wish he woulda been nicer and told me wut he was gonna do.. geeze.

after the pelvic exam, he said he didnt see what he wanted to see because i was resisting. and he has little hope of the pregnancy continuing, but he isnt sure..

waited for FOREVER and finally got an ultrasound or w/e. lady doing it seemed nice, took pictures i guess is what she was doing up there, and thought we were done, left that room and had to go right back in for some more pictures. after that i asked if there was a baby in there or not and she said "thats up the radiologist" so immediatly im like SERIOUSLY?!?!

after waiting about 3 hours finally heard from the doctor and he said im still pregnant but in that same sentance he said maybe, maybe not.. "in my opinion u are still pregnant, maybe.. maybe not" WTF? seriously! tell me something!!!! he diagnosed me with a threatened miscarriage which scares me, i want this baby more than anything!!!!! pray for me please!!

we finally got to leave the hosptial at 11 15, got there at 3!!! and all we found out is i have small veins and a threatened miscarriage... gotta go back sunday morning for another ultrasound and more blood work.. i guess to make sure the baby is ok.. if there is a baby...

my bleeding slowed down alot yesterday.. it was light, then only spotting, this morning its a littttttllllee bit heavier than spotting.

has anyone gone through something like this and had a healthy baby, please give me advice.. im scared.. but also prepaired for the worst... i just really want this baby, and hope i dont get the same jackass of a doctor on sunday

i was diagnosed with a threatened miscarriage at 7 weeks as well. you might not be as far along as you think, they probably didn't see a baby on the ultrasound yet because its too early. thats my guess as to why he's not sure your gonna stay pregnant. passing clots and cramping is never a good sign. but hopefully things will turn out okay. im sorry your going through this. my er doctor was rude too...i would go to an obgyn. keep us posted. :)

You were diagnosed as having a threatened miscarriage becuase of the bleeding.

I too, was diagnosed with this when I went to the dr. Well, I actually was diagnosed as having a subchorionic bleed, but she put me down for the threatened m/c. I bled from 5-9 weeks.

I haven't bled in over a week now. Thankfully.. I am now 11w4d. The baby is doing good.. I've had several u/s. I go in for another one on friday. I have high blood pressure, so I am high risk.

Good Luck..

i agree with tina....I didn't bleed THAT much but I spotted at 7weeks and even though they saw the baby's heartbeat they said I was having a threatened miscarriage and sent me home....But luckily since I've been this road before I knew that seeing the baby's heartbeat meant that most likely everything was fine, so I didn't freak. I'm now 15wks with my little boy and everything's great, so you never know. you need to see an OB...you can ask for a consult when you're there on sunday if you want. the ER always calls bleeding with pregnancy a "threatened miscarriage" and until they do your follow-up HCG quant and ultrasound, they won't be able to tell you anything for sure. However i do agree with tarajanes that bleeding and cramping like that does not sound too good :( but I'm praying everything turns out okay...there are a lot of women who have heavy pregnancy bleeding and a healthy baby. Good luck hon

Hi!

If your period was on the 3rd you should be over 7 weeks right now :) Mine was on the 7th of December and i will be 7 weeks tomorrow! I would not worry to much there are pregnant woman with a period for some or the other reason!
Go to a OBGYN! Dr. at the ER don't know to much about pregnancy get a second opinion!

Unfortunately you now have to play the waiting game,hope it all works out for you.

they didnt tell me anything about anything except its hard to find my veins and i am still pregnant., maybe maybe not and i have a threatened miscarriage

Im sorry your going through this.it doesnt sound good im afraid.but then im no doctor,but dont want to lie to you.doctors can be very inconsiderate when it comes to things like this.I can tell you in my experience in mc,which has been many.when your bleeding its hard for them to see much really when doing an internal exam,what he was looking for was to see if your cervix was open,passing clots isnt a good sign.sadley until you have another scan,there is no way of knowing,have they given you your blood results,these should be repeated,just in case scan dont show much,as your early,the repeat blood tests will show if your HCG is rising.I really hope its good news for you tomorrow.all the best,in mean time get plenty of rest.
