WHat happens after natural miscarriage
HI all,
I've been advised that I am going to miscarry. Gestational sac with no heartbeat measuring 6W5D and I should be 8W2D. I am willing to wait for a natural m/c , but I"m worried about tissue being left behind. Do they do an ultrasound after you start to miscarry to make sure everything comes out? I haven't started to bleed yet and know it could take weeks.

Such powerful stories - thank you all for sharing. This has been so helpful for me as I wait for a natural miscarriage to pass.
Yesterday I went in for my routine 15-week prenatal visit. No heartbeat was picked up with the doppler, nor the u/s. Was sent to the hospital to get a better u/s with an actual tech. Thankfully my husband was able to leave work and hold my hand through the process. We could see the developed arms and legs and body, but the screen was so still, and there was obviously no heartbeat found. It was devastating to us, as we had celebrated making into the 2nd trimester!
We've decided to wait for the baby to pass naturally, and are praying that my body will recognize that it needs to pass the baby before too much time passes. We're opting not to have a D&C, as we wouldn't be able to see or touch the perfect little body. We want to take a picture of it, identify the gender, name it, and bury it.
One of the hardest things about this loss was that my sister is also pregnant at the same time - we were actually due only 5 days apart! We had given each other our pregnancy announcements during the same conversation one day, and had been taking monthly baby bump pictures together. When I told her the sad news yesterday she cried and cried with me, and I do believe she hurts just as much as I am.
We will always remember, and hurt, although most of the pain will subside over time.

your stories (sad but helpful), I have to thank you all. You have answered the questions that were lingering in my mind.
Now that I go back a fews weeks, I had spotting in December 2012 and I took it as just a regular period. But during the next fews weeks, I knew something was going on with my body. I was tired and had aches. Then I did some house cleaning, and took a pregnancy test, it came out positive (Jan 2013). Then the next day, I had some bleeding, and painful cramps. This went on for a few weeks, then the bleeding and cramps became more intense. I couldn't function, but I still went to work, driving was painful with the cramps. My back hurt so much on every bump. Then at the end of my work day, I went to the bathroom with intense cramps. I pushed and then I heard a small splash. After that I took it as a clot passing (or a BM). Today, I still bleed, and every time I wipe I see blood, but not a lot of it. I have no more intense cramps and my back no longer hurts. I will go in to see my DR on tuesday morning, I hope he can tell me what went on. I just need to know if I had another miscarriage.
Your stories have helped me a lot. Answered a lot of the questions I had. I hope he doesn't have to examine me inside, but I hope he can do an ultrasound, just to verify my suspicions. I hope everything works out.

I know this is an old post from 2008. Now is 2013. I just had my 4th miscarriage too. First and 3rd we saw a heartbeat and baby stopped developing at 9+ to 10 weeks. 2nd and 4th are blighted ovum. So it was devastating for us. We also checked and did all the tests available and doctor found nothing that could explain this. My hormones levels were all good always. We are still praying for the day that we will have a healthy baby but right now I am scared to even hope.
Hi all. Just want to say sorry for all your losses.
I just want to share my story, I'm 21 and I found out I was pregnant very early. I've been visiting the EPAU for 4 weeks now. I have my sak, fetal pole just no heart beat. that could of been due to the fact it was to early to detect the heart beat. Everything was going okay until the 6th of December, I noticed I was passing bright red blood, I'd been bleeding for 4 days, just like a light period. Until early hours of Tuesday morning, I had really bad cramps, I couldn't move the pain was that bad, it was only on the one side, (the left) I rang the hospital and they said it sounded like I was in the early stages of miscarriage. I'd passed 4 large blood clots, but after passing them I felt as if there was nothin else to pass. And I thought that's it, I've lost my baby!
After coming to terms with the fact I was no longer pregnant, EPAU rang me and asked me to come in and have a check up. I eventually got called in, i had an internal scan to be told by the sono that it looked as if it was breaking away, and it had not turned out the way we had planned, as there was still no heart beat, by this time it had hit home that I had lost my baby.
I waited for the consultant, but she never told me I had miscarried, she told me that my pregnancy had progressed, but my sak was a little irregular and that I was having a threatened miscarriage. I was really confused but also happy that I still had a chance of having a baby!
Now I'm due for another scan on the 18th, I have hope that I may still be carring. I am still bleeding and passing little blood clots with period pains but I have prepared myself for the worst..
Has anyone else experienced this? This is my first pregnancy and so confused.
