I'm so sorry. I know how awful it is. I saw the HB at 6w2d and at the 10w appt. the baby had already passed. It was about 3 weeks and I had no signs of MC and still felt pregnant. A week later I had a D&C because I just couldn't keep going know the baby was gone. It was the best thing for me so I could move on. I couldn't just wait any longer and the doc said sometimes it can take up to 6 weeks to for your body to get the message to miscarry. Good luck to you and let me know if you need anything.

So sorry you're going through this.  I had my m/c a week ago today, and I know how hard it is.  I started spotting 2-3 days after my BFP, and after 2 ultrasounds and 4 blood tests, the doctor said he thought everything was progressing normally.  I knew in my heart though that it wasn't normal, even though the bleeding was minimal if at all for the better
part of a month.  Last Tuesday night, the bleeding picked up, and by Wednesday night, I was deep in the throes of a m/c at just over 7 weeks.  So I don't know how long it will take to happen (it seems to vary person to person), but for your sake, I hope it's sooner than later.

The natural m/c was the most terrifying thing I've ever been through.  I didn't know that it would pretty much all come out at once (thank God I was at home!).  But I promise you, you'll feel so much better once it is over and you have some closure.  It is a horrible situation, and you'll go through a million emotions.. But once it's over, you'll be able to work on grieving and moving on, and not worrying so much about the unknown.  Sending big hugs your way.

That's exactly how I felt, I just wanted to happen so I could move on and I went spotting for two weeks and never passed any tissue. Hang in there and let you body do what is meant to do. I know it is hard because of the constant reminder...give yourself permission to be sad and to move through the feelings. It will get better as the days go by. Blessing to you sweetie!
