How many weeks pregant were you when you had your miscarriage????? lets find out more about other experiences....

Hi Every one, I was thinking why not ask all the lovely ladies whom gone though a miscarrige in they life to update other of how many weeks they were when they had a miscarrige, what were the symptoms and would be great to know the reaons if known but dont worry if unknown... I had a miscarrige in Aug 2006, I was 13 weeks at the time but the routine scan showed that the baby has died at 8 1/2 weeks so was amissed miscarrige, although I had some spottin gand pain at 7 weeks but the 7 1/2 weeks scan showed everything was fine!
Tell me about your expperience and sure we can learn more from each other....
I am now almost 11 weeks pregant and still terrified that thing may have gone wrong quitley. I had a scan at 8 weeks and 10 weeks and was told all is fine and have heard the heart beat :-) Do most early miscarrige happen at 8 weeks or less?

I was 10 weeks and 3 days, the scan showed baby was 10weeks and 1 day so the baby died 2 days ago. My first ob appointment i was 7 weeks and was suppose to have an u/s at 12 weeks. I woke up that mourning and reallized i was not hungry and i felt not preggo so i went to er to get u/s and there was no cardiac activity. i waited about a week, ob wanted to see if i would pass naturally, had another u/s and blood work( levels were decreasing) i decided to have d&c next day, i was devasted and wanted to move forward with the healing process.

Of course my OB said it was PROBABLY chromosonal, but no test was ran on the remains of the fetus.  I did have a burial service which gave me a lot of closure.

My ob told me if i get preggo again, and m/c she would run test on the fetus tissue to see what the cause is, and if i wanted, i could get an u/s every 2 weeks(which i doubt that i would do)

To Nadia:  Most m/c's happen in the first trimester(1-12weeks) but can happen further along also

I had one miscarriage at 5 weeks, which began like a period in the morning but by midnight involved really intense cramping, stronger than my worst period by far.  The pain was pretty much gone by the next morning and i bled like a normal period for a week.  That was in April and now just last week I had to misoprostol to stimulate my body to expel another pregnancy.  This one I has spotting around 6 weeks and my hcg levels rose slowly, but when I had an u/s the Dr said I must have my dates wrong.  I knew I didn't but when I went the next week for another u/s she saw a sac, which hadn't been there prior so she said again I had my dates wrong.  I had to wait almost 4 weeks for another u/s which showed the sac had only grown to a 5 weeks size and was completely empty.  The medication was terrible, the pain was like being in labor.  I don't ever want to have to take it again.  I was told to wait 3-4 months before ttc again so we're waiting until Jan.  Hopefully it will better then.

I had a missed m/c at 12 weeks, the baby had actually stopped developing somewhere around weeks 6-7. I had one tiny spot of blood which triggered the call to my OB and an U/S unsued where we discovered it. I also had zero pregnancy symptoms and was amazed at how fantastic I felt. I am not even sure what made me take a pregnancy test that time around I was just figuring it would settle my nerves so AF would come. I had a d&c the following day. Three long cycles later was pregnant again, this time with a few pregnancy symptoms. HCG levels were checked constantly in the beginning and had an u/s scheduled for 8weeks. That showed a pregnancy that could be no where near 8 weeks so more HCg levels were taken hoping that my dates were extremely off. The results were not good and two days later started bleeding and passed everything on my own. After one cycle got pregnant again, this time with twins and everything is looking great - counting down the weeks until I can meet them (27wks currently).

hi
i just wanted to know has anyone been diagnosed a miscarriage only for it to be misdiagnosed. my dilemma is i started bleeding on saturday and went to er, bleeding was light but red and they did a uss and diagnosed me with a threatened miscarriage, er then told me to go to early pregnancy unit on Monday for blood tests to see if HCG levels were doubling. so i went on Monday but they  said its better to do another uss, they said they could dee the gestational and yolk sac and the uterus looked normal even though bleeding was moderate with mild period pains, and booked me for another appointment in 2 weeks. when saying moderate i used a maximum of a pad and a half  a day for the rest of the week till date, and strangely found that when i sat or lay down i hardly bled but when i went toilet i used to drip ( not pour)as they also suggested bed rest for 2 weeks. so here i am 1 week later and yesterday i began to clot about the size of like 50p  it did again today twice and so i went back to er and they did another uss and told me that its coming away slowly. i could see the gestational sac there and the doctor even asked if i had pictures from the last scan to compare hers too. she discharged me saying i have had a complete miscarriage but if i was to start bleeding heavier i should go back to the early pregnancy unit.
by my lmp dates i am 6 weeks 5 days today... if i go on monday i will be 7 weeks gestational age 5 weeks fetus, is that too early to hear a heartbeat?

I had a missed m/c in Jan. I was 11 weeks but the baby stopped growing at 6w 5d. I was so torn up about it.My husband and I were both really wanting this baby. They  had me in for my regular check up and tried with the doppler to find a heartbeat and couldn't so they did and u/s.Still couldn't so they did a trans vag one and still nothing. They told me to come back the next week and I did. The baby hadn't grown any or anything . So they asked if I wanted a D&C or just wait it out.I said I'll call them back.That was a Thursday.Well that Friday night I started spotting but didn't think anything of it because  my Dr told me that I might spot because of the transvag. So I wasn't sacared but I told my husband anyways. Well Saturday got here and I started cramping and blood started gushing. I was so scared so I told my DH that i wanted to go to the er.Well they ended up doing a D&C.I got AF 1 month and 1 day after I had that done. Now DH & I and ttc. Wish us luck.
