Loss of Pregnancy Symptoms

Hi all.  

I should be 6 weeks 4 days today according my my LMP - but I ovulated on CD 17 so I'm more like just 6 weeks.

On Tuesday (11/24) I went for an ultrasound and was measuring right on time at 6 weeks (a little bigger than ontime).  They saw a 9mm sac and a yolk sac.  Things looked great.  I switched from progesterone pills to vaginal suppositories Tuesday night because the pills were causing dizziness.  Same dosage, just administered differently.  

So, my symptoms up until Wednesday were: very sore breasts, bad constipation, some nausea and being tired.  I woke up Wednesday and my breasts weren't as sore, no nausea and throughout the past few days I've become less and less constipated.  I started having cramps too.  Prior to this I had some very light spotting - but nothing to be concerned with.  I had it with my daughter and things were just fine.  Today I had some egg white discharge.

Yesterday I went to the RE again since I lost all the symptoms.  I got a horrible doctor who said the sac was not measuring the way it should be.  It was only 11.5mm and there was no heartbeat.  He also had a hard time finding it.  

I guess my question is does this sound like a miscarriage or one that is about to start?  I go back tomorrow to see my real doctor.  Any helpful advice would be great.

Hey girlie;)  When I was pg last Dec. (Mc'd in Feb @ 11 weeks) I was being pretty closely monitored, mostly cuz I was 39. & had just had lap. surgery, & a mc all within 3 months.  ANYWAY, I was anticipating a low number beta one day...WAITING for my Dr's office to call etc.......& since my US was "off" bt like 4 days, I was REALLY worried;-/ WELL, the NEXT night (my beta was PERFECT 33,000 @ 6 weeks 3 days) my MIL leaves me this message on my cell, saying she is SOO SOOO sorry about my MC, & bla bla bla.....I don;t even think I finished listening to it!  I was so SOOOO MAD.  I called her the next day & told her that I really had no idea of what she was talking about.........last I had not had a MC!!!!  UGHHHHHH  I was SOOOO PO'd @ my DH, he I guess had told his mon, & sisters (all very close) that things weren't looking so great.  WHAT A DORK!  He SAYS, it was cuz when I was waiting for "the call" I was crying on the phone, telling him that it's probably not going to be good etc......
I was a BAL darn emotional!
Anyway, that SAME MIL NEVER called me when I DID find out I had a missed MC........she FINALLY sent me a text AFTER my DnC like 3 days AFTER I found out the baby had died!  She was out of town, w/her daughter who was pg at the time.....but STILL!  I STILL have harsh feelings about this.  She actually did this to me w/BOTH my MC's this past year;(
BUT, she is not evil, I do lover her, she's just soooo CONSUMED by her 4 grown daughters, ALL very demanding, my hubby's family reminds me A LOT of the show "brothers & sisters"  A LOT! LOL  except their dad is not dead;) & as far as I know, nobody is gay;)
Anyway, just wanted to let you know I TOTALLY understand, VERY VEY well........it is hurtful;(

OMG! I feel for you... Had a similar problem not with my mother in law, but my hubby's aunt. I asked him not to tell anybody that I was pregnant, but he was too excited and told her. When I misscaried, turned out everybody including my husband's cousin's in-laws knew... Now I am preparing myself for the subject of our infertility to come up during Christmas dinner... Ahhhhhh!!

I have seen almost all the other physicians in the office and they all stink.  My doctor is caring and kind and his staff make everything better.  For being in the same office I'm shocked that there is such a difference in the way they act.  

Oh - something else that pis sed me off.  My freaking mother in law.  I spoke to my sister in law and let her know what was going on.  We have the same doctor and she went through a miscarriage at 20 weeks last year and we've been close since then.  She shared it with her mother who decided to send a text message to all of my husbands brothers and sisters.  (there are 9 including spouses).  So we started getting texts saying "sorry about the miscarriage, and let me know if there is anything i can do..." WTF?  I haven't even talked to her and she is telling everyone I've miscarried?  What kind of person does that?  I am furious...and saddened by her lack of privacy in this matter.  UGH
