How far along were you when you had a miscarriage?

Question

I know the chances of miscarriage get smaller the further along you get, but how far along were you when you had a miscarriage? Do you know the reason?

i was 8 weeks 1 day, i had D & C last thursday, waiting for my test results.  My RE was sure its not Chromosonal abnormailites because i was carrying twins, he is thinking i have blood clot mutation problems. Both babies had a very strong heartbeat-i go over every steps and every movement i did the week before my mc, its driving me crazy..

I had my miscarriage at 17 weeks.  The biopsy done on the baby found the baby had Trisomy 13.  That is an extra 13th chromosome.  Instead of having 2 like you are supposed to my little girl had 3.  It happens to 1 out of every 10,000 babies.  The doctor told me it was probably a fluke and shouldn't happen again.

i miscarried at 15 weeks and 5days. it was so weird because the pregnancy was goin great. had 2 ultrasounds and all was good. even went to a regular scheduled appt the day before the mc and the baby's heart rate was 155bpm. i did have some spotting 6weeks to about 10 weeks but told it was normal and once it stopped (xmas eve) i never had any more bleeding until the baby was actually removed. i was told i had some unfore seen bleeding to build in my uterus and the pressure of the blood sent me into labor. my water literally broke and the baby began to descend. it was awful esp since i didnt have any warning signs or symptoms. Dont know what ima do now. not really trying to get pg but not stopping it from happening either. jus playin it by ear....

I'm having such a hard time coping with my loss. It just seems like everyone is getting pregnant around me. Its been a month now since my suction d&c after misscarrying for almost two weeks and some days i just feel like thats all i think about...i really dont want to drive my husband crazy. I'm wondering is this normal and will this pass with time? Sorry for all your losses as well...i know its a very hard time.

Karen616 · Answer

I had a miscarriage at 7 weeks in 2005, and now im pregnant and am 7 weeks today and the nerves havent gone away. This will be our first baby. We saw the heart beat at 6 weeks 1 day and at that time the doctor said my chances of miscarrying now are only around 2 or 3%. Thats good news, but I dont know how he can say that the chance is that low when I had a miscarriage last time at 7 weeks. Im just scared and I was trying to get some reasurrance that I probably didnt have to worry that much but it seems like everyone has had late miscarriages. Im just frustrated with it already. lol

I was 5 1/2 weeks. I'm not sure for the reason I had genetic testing done prior to losing the baby. I'm 32 and that is young to have testing but my Dr is very thorough and likes to cover all the bases. To this day I believe in my heart my uti at the time killed the baby. I was diagnosed with a pretty severe one right after the m/c. I needed some type of closure so I went with my heart and in my heart like I said it was my Uti. How about you have you had a m/c? If so I'm sorry for your loss.

I had my first m/c in 1995 at 3wks, in 1996 ectopic at 4 wks and on 10/17/08 I delivered my son at 17 1/2 weeks his heart stopped beating at around 16 1/2 wks. Before my first m/c I had 2 great pregnancies 1 in 1987 & 1 in 1988 (a son and a daughter). After my ectopic I gave birth to my 2nd son in 1997 another easy pregnancy.

Pips...dear fiance?  maybe? 

I was just past 5 weeks with my first one, and 11 weeks with the second.  I would have miscarried earlier with the second one but my progesterone was low (turns out because it was a non-viable pregnancy) and the Dr had me on progesterone supplements which kept the pregnancy going longer than it should have..until I took medication actually.

Momof4Angels · Answer

I was about 15 weeks when i had my first m/c. Little boy. perfect. Absoultey nothing wrong with him. Had about 5 u/s and he was fine in everyone. Have had 3 more m/c and all are "healthy" ..no chromosome problems or anything. I was 21 with my first and 22-23 with the other three. I dont know why which makes it so hard.

Ok ... should know this by now, but what is DF?  It is not in the acronym list.  I'm thinking, "dear friend", "dear father" ... no idea!

Latrice414 · Answer

I had a missed m/c june 12th(2days after my 32nd b-day) i was suppose to be 10weeks and 3 days, u/s showed baby was 10w and 1day. There was no heartbeat, that was my first u/s when i went to the er. I went bcuz i felt different that day i woke up, i was not hungry and new something was not right.

Me and DF was not trying to get preggo but was not doing nothing to prevent it, he knew i was ovulating and we BD'd the next day, the only day that week and was preggo.

I have a son who is 13

JoyRenee · Answer

My first I was probably 6 or 7 weeks. It was a blighted ovum (so genetic problem). My most recent miscarriage (still bleeding, actually) started at 7 weeks but I have a new fertility problem that popped up this year and I needed to have progesterone supplements but didn't get them in time. If I had had my progesterone I would not have miscarried. I believe that with my whole heart.

I have 2 daughters and my pregnancies with them were uneventful and perfect. I had NO issues or scares with them. So it is very possible to have a baby after a loss.

lovebenson · Answer

got pregnant July 24th and found out Aug. 28th. My husband and I Were not "not trying," to get pregnant for 9 months then i took a test and it came out positive i was shocked b/c i was thinking we could never have kids. I started having bad cramps around the time i took a preg. test then i started spotting the doctor said everything could be normal, but we want u to come in for an ultrasound so i did and they told me that everything seemed fine. they wanted me to come in the next week for another I thought nothing of b/c this was my first pregnancy. at my second ultrasound i saw a flickering, but they never told me it was an actual heartbeat b/c they couldn't hear it ( i was about 6 weeks along). I had another ultrasound schedualed for the 30th of september which was my husband and i's one year anniversary of being married. We were so excited that this could be the day that we actually hear the heartbeat and see that the baby has grown. At this time I was 8 wks 5 days along. We went in and found out that our baby had passed away. How devistating this was for us. I was a mess...curled in a ball crying on the medical bed as my husband was holding my hand. I wasn't expecting all of that for our first pregnancy. I was told to wait a week to see if i naturally misscarry. within a week i started to bleed. It was the longest week i'd ever had the pain was excruciating. I went in after a week of heavy bleeding and had an ultrasound i still hadn't pass our baby. That monday Oct. 20th I had a suction d&c to remove the rest of the tissue i couldn't pass. At this point i felt like my body couldn't do anything right. I blead for a couple days then spotting for a week and a half. Now I'm up and down. A girl at work found out she was pregnant the week of my d&c. I also just found out a few days ago my tiwn sister is 5 weeks pregnant. I know god only gives you things you can handle, but this has been the most confusing and difficult thing thus far i've had to endure. I want to be angry, but at the same time I know i can't be that way I am so happy for my twin and I know i'll love my neise or nephew very much. It is such a struggle. If anyone has an advise i would love it thanx.

YogaChick · Answer

I was 7w +/- (tried to block most of the timing out so I don't have "anniversary issues" later.)  I had been bleeding the week before but we saw the heartbeat so hoped everything would work out.  There was a clot under the placenta that I'm 99% sure developed on a plane flight either from the flight itself or from lifting my suitcase... I'm pretty sure that was the cause although the doctor tried to reassure me by saying it still could have been other things.  Tests came back inconclusive.

peterjl · Answer

I was 16 weeks, they thought the baby died at about 15 weeks.  I delivered a baby boy- chromosomes were normal and no infection, so we really don't know why he died.  He was beautiful and perfect, 10 fingers and toes.  I had 2 previous u/s before I lost him and both showed a healthy baby with heartrates 150's- 170's.  It has made it harder not knowing what really happened.

pat4rod · Answer

Both of mine were at about 4 wks, the 1st I didn't know I was preg I went to the dr because I had been bleeding for 12 days and she told me I was preg and then 2 days later I was no longer preg, then the second I took a hpt on 3-5 then spotted on 3-18 and went to get checked and had  an us done and uterus was already empty. I got no answers on either, terrified but I am ready to go at it again

Pips · Answer

I had a m/c at 7 weeks 2 day.  I am using the weeks I was when the u/s confirmed it.  I believe the baby came out at 7 weeks 1 day, but I'd been bleeding for about 2 weeks prior to that.

We don't know the reason, but are assuming it was a chromosonal abnormality, as this is usually the case.  I probably would have m/c sooner, but was on progesterone as we watched the hcg do their slow slow slow rize.
