Is this a threatened miscarriage?

Question

I am 41 and in good health. Today I should be about 11 weeks pregnant but my ultrasound showed only 7 weeks. I have mild bleeding and craming for the last week or so,my doctor precribed Duphaston ( Dydrogesterone) is it going to help? is there any hope in this pregnancy. I have 3 children never had any complications before.

Im sorry to hear about your loss, but I am glad to hear that you are fine.  Its not easy, and many of us have gone through it.  I miscarried at 11 weeks, but we are TTC again.  KIT!  We are here for you!  You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I too, am 41 and but I have suffered 2 mc's. I know the fear you are facing and it really *****. If they gave you something then you should assume you are okay. I too, have heard of similar situations that turned out absolutely fine. Our fingers are crossed for you. My heart is with you.

The same thing happened to me at 11 weeks.  I was never given any meds to help and never heard of anyone given any meds to help.  I had cramping and spotting.  When I was at 11 weeks, my ultrasounds showed 7 weeks, then 6 weeks, then 5 weeks, until my miscarriage and D&C.  It is still possible for you to get through this and have a health baby.  Ive heard many stories of women getting over the cramping and bleeding with a health baby, but with these symptoms, odds are against you.  Im sorry, and I hope you get through this with a health little one!

I'm so sorry you are going thru this. The exact same situation happened with me at 10.5 weeks but the baby not only showed 7 weeks but had no HB. If you saw a HB there is hope. The doctors must have thought there was some hope or they wouldn't have prescribed anything to help with the pregnancy and would'be told you that you would miscarry. Good luck to you, I hope everything turns out ok.
