He says he will do his part as a parent if im still pregnant because he loves me and i know he will because he's very responsible but i know if i lose this one he will feel like the weight is lifted off his shoulders.  He will probably be extra careful

First they said 5 weeks than they say 7 weeks. They couldn't see anything either.  And thanks for your words of encouragement.  Im just afraid if I did go through a miscarriage,  my boyfriend might not want aanother child. Becsuse this one hahappened unexpectedly.  He already has a daughter from his past relationship

How far along were you when you had the ultrasound?they cudnt see my baby at 7 weeks 3 days just a sack and needed an internal scan..i really hope evetything is okay for you hunni..i agree with the previous poster though that its not always heavy bleeding..my best friend miscarried and had no pain just a little brown blood over two days..she was only 4weeks 5/6 days when she miscarried so that might explain why..she did get pregnant straight after though and has a beautiful, healthy boy whose just turned 6 months now..i hope u dont have to go through that but i wanted to give you some hope if the worst did happen..thinking of you

I'm sorry your going through such a hard time. I had a miscarriage last year and like with each pregnancy, each miscarriage is different. I did not have acute pain, heavy bleeding or clots. I did have very low hcg levels. Unfortunately i was told that given my bleeding was so light i would probably be fine and just rest. I did so and still miscarried. The worst part was that false hope. I really do hope that your little baby is fine and that a healthy pregnancy continues but i would hate for you to have hope built up.

When I misscarried I bled so much I fainted in the shower twice and required a blood transfusion. That said, I'm under the impression that they're different for everyone.

I would go somewhere else and get another ultrasound. I was 6wks with my first Don they didn't see anything came back 8 wks and there he was.  With my miscarriage I have one at 12 wks and 6 wks and it like a heavy period and lots of cramping.

It hurts a lot. I later figured they were contractions not cramps. If you aren't soaking a pad you maybe fine. Definitely get a second opinion and ask for an ultrasound.

Done miscarriages do take awhile and need to have a d&c others just happen.

I would start think it was a miscarriage if you had blood clots. I had a lot of those and they fell.

With all 3 of my miscarriages it started light,but within a day or so it was really heavy bright red blood with a lot of blood clots, and it was very painful. There was a lot of cramping. I had to be on pain meds it hurt so bad.

You could get pregnant right away. I started miscarrying Jul 4th, stopped bleeding the 8th and by my calcuculation my second pregnancy started July 10th. You are very Fertile after miscarrying. I'm 36weeks now. Good luck, hoping for the best for you, I know how heart breaking Miscarrying can be.
