I have a personal miscarriage story:
I had a miscarriage due to a blighted ovum, where there is no fetal pole or baby growing inside yolk sac. I only had a yolk sac visible.
On my 1st Dr visit, I was 6 weeks, at ultrasound, there was a yolk sac, but no fetal pole or baby. On my next appt, a week later at 7 weeks, Dr still couldn't see a fetal pole or baby; she said that it wasn't a big deal that there was no baby to be seen, yet.
A few days later after my lsat appt, I started to miscarry.
When the miscarriage started, it came on slow. It took 2 days for me to know something was wrong.
On Day 1, I started spotting (with lil blood clots) On Day 2, I started cramping like a really bad period, and still bleeding lightly with small blood clots.
On day 3 I started having contraction-type pains ; still bleeding but now with thick blood clots.
On day 4, I finally got in to see my Dr.
She confirmed, again, that there was no baby. Since I was now bleeding more heavily with thick blood clots & having severe contractions and labor-like pains, she determined I was actively miscarrying.
I chose to do the abortion pill and after taking it, I went into active labor. The pill did its job in about 10 hrs after taking them.
The miscarriage happened May 2011 and began & ended in about 5-6 days.
I'm now 7.5 weeks pregnant with my fourth child and heart beat was detected at 6 weeks.
I'm so sorry for what you are going through:( the same thing happened me in July,pain is body expelling tissue like contractions,I passed a jelly like substance,I was about 5 weeks,get plenty of rest, don't lose heart,I am pregnant again and have had successful pregnancies before,but I won't forget this wee one I lost, bleeding was over in 7 days xx
If I were you I would drink lots of vitamin c containing fluids and get a second opinion. From what I have been told alot of drs are too quick to jump to conclusions....especially er drs.
