July 5th, had spotting. July 6th u/s revealed 6w embryo with strong hb of 146. Continued spotting and then progressed to some slightly heavier bleeding with small clots continuously for a week. 2nd u/s on July 14th saw embryo 6w 4d and small gestational sac. Still a strong hb at 140 bpm. Bleeding is heavier today so that I need a pad and not just a pantyliner. Intermittent cramping, but not yet severe.
I've had a previous m/c 6 years ago that I went through "naturally". And things are progressing like that did. So I'm coming to terms with the fact that I'm probably losing this baby. I've had 10 days of bleeding to slowly realize it.
Questions:
1. D & C versus taking the pill (misoprostol?)- For those of you that have done either of these, will you share your opinions. Amount of pain? Bleeding? Recovery time? Would you make same choice again?
2. If I miscarry this baby, this will be my 2nd m/c. However, I have also had a healthy son in between the 2 m/cs. At what point will the dr. think I have a fertility problem?
3. Did any of you get pregnant the next cycle or two after m/cing? If so, did you have another m/c or a healthy baby?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
