Am I having a Miscarriage

[Prayerful2528]

I am 5 to 6wks preg. I have had four u/s since I found out I was pregant. I had an ectopics pregn in 2005.  Therefore, my doctor was trying to make sure the baby was in the right place.  However, after the first u/s he didn't hear a heartbeat, and wanted me to come back in a wk to make sure it was a good pregn.  During every other u/s  that I had after the first one he is only seeing a gestrational sack. I have had a  brown discharge  for the last past 2wks. I haven't seen any red or pink blood;  just brown when I wipe and a little on the pantiliner. Does this mean that I will probably ended up having a miscarriage? Have this ever happen to anyone, and they ended up with a health pregn? Also, each u/s looks so different. started out round, but is now wide and long looking. Should I get a second Opn

when i found out i was miscarrying, i made the same decision as you.  even though i knew there was no hope, having a d&c felt too much like an abortion to me, and I was already so emotionally distressed, I just couldn't do it.  But please, watch the bleeding.  If it gets overly heavy, you feel faint or anything like that, get treatment right away. I don't want to frighten you, but in my case I bled for 4 weeks, and ended up in emergency having an emergency d & c anyway as I was bleeding to death.  Again, I don't want to frighten you, I just want to make sure you are careful, and watch closely. I know when you are this upset and emotional it can be so difficult to make decisions like that, and I want you to be ok, and not go through what I did.

I will keep praying for you, and thank you for your prayers.  Please take good care of yourself, I hurt for you.  God Bless you too.

My doctor wanted me to come back in today to do an u/s to see if the gestational sack had passed. It was still there.  However, I do know that this is not a good pregn there has been no growth in the last month. I am bleeding very heavy, clotting and paining. He said that we could wait as long as I wanted to wait for the m/c to happen on its own. Or I can go ahead and schdule to have the Cyst remove as well as do the D & C. I believe I am going to give it at least one more week to see if it will pass on its on. By then I will be eight weeks. I am ok; I know God is in full control.  After this is all over. We can try again, and pray this will be our healthy baby boy:-). Continue to pray for us; as I will do the same for you all. God Bless.

I am so sorry for your loss, and sending lots of prayers and hugs your way.  

If you are bleeding heavily enough that you are filling more than a pad an hour, you need to get to the emergency room.  If the bleeding is not that heavy, you need to book an appointment with your Dr.  Calling him now and talking to the nurse is a good idea.  I took extra strength tylenol for the pain, but I have heard that IBProphin (spelling??) is better because it has a muscle relaxant that helps with the cramps.    But please call your Dr.  It is very very important to get medical treatment and advice, for your safety and well being.

I wish I could do more to help you, but I will pray for you.  I am so sorry you are going through this.  Take very good care of yourself.

I realize that it is a miscarriage. I am bleeding very heavy and hurting badly. What do I suppose to be doing; doing this time? I never had a miscarriage before, and I am very lost. What can I take for the pain, and what do I need to do, and what I  don't need to do doing this time?  Thanks for all of your prayers. I will try again when God say its time.

I am really very sorry, Prayerful2528! The HCG #s should double every 48-72 hours, so that your numbers have not increased as they should coupled with the bleeding and clots from yesterday and I would start mentally preparing that you may be having a m/c. It seem so impersonal to write this as I wish I could give you a hug and let you know God's there and He's got you covered. Hang in there and keep us posted. Lots and lots of women here have been through what you are facing. I will be saying my prayers for you!

Hello Ladies,

I started to bleed heavy, and saw small clots on yesterday.  I went out to the doctor and demanded that they check my HCG levels.  They compared the one from yesterday to the one I had on the 12th at the ER. I don't know much about HCG levels so please help me to understand. 02/12/08 14941 02/25/08 17358. The doctor said that my numbers are not increasing like they should I will soon miscarriage. I had a plevic example, and I was still closed. Didn't do an u/s on yesterday, but will have another on Monday. Do anybody know where the bleeding is probably coming from, and does the numbers look like a bad pregn to you all? Thanks ladies
