How many weeks pregant were you when you had your miscarriage????? lets find out more about other experiences....

Hi Every one, I was thinking why not ask all the lovely ladies whom gone though a miscarrige in they life to update other of how many weeks they were when they had a miscarrige, what were the symptoms and would be great to know the reaons if known but dont worry if unknown... I had a miscarrige in Aug 2006, I was 13 weeks at the time but the routine scan showed that the baby has died at 8 1/2 weeks so was amissed miscarrige, although I had some spottin gand pain at 7 weeks but the 7 1/2 weeks scan showed everything was fine!
Tell me about your expperience and sure we can learn more from each other....
I am now almost 11 weeks pregant and still terrified that thing may have gone wrong quitley. I had a scan at 8 weeks and 10 weeks and was told all is fine and have heard the heart beat :-) Do most early miscarrige happen at 8 weeks or less?

I started spotting at 7 weeks and at 7 1/2 weeks, I couldn't even get off the couch, I was in so much pain. Never had an u/s so I don't know when my baby passed on but I know that Valentines Day was not very fun! AF came the following month like clock work so is was easy to start tracking again.  Unfortunately, I am TERRIFIED to get pregnant again!!!

I had my miscarriage back in sept 07. I started spotting at almost 6 weeks and I hadnt told my mom so I didnt go to the doctor yet, but It wasnt heavy at all and no pain. It was really just brown spotting. I went in for my first ultrasound on the 26th and they dated me at 7 weeks 5 days. Told me my bleeding wasnt anything to worry about. I saw the heartbeat and got pictures. As soon as they did the vag u/s I started spotting red and getting some cramps. Two days later I was still bleeding so I called the nurse at my OB and asked if it was normal. She said it was probably due to the ultrasound. I was at work when I called her and she told me she wanted me to go home to stay off my feet and rest. She said she'd call me in an hour to see if it had gotten better. Well when she called it was the same, I told her it may have been a tiny bit better but not really a noticeable difference. They were just like AF cramps and red blood..but not a lot. Well she told me to keep resting and to call her if it got worse at all. Well about 30 minutes later I started getting sharper pains to where I couldn't sleep. I started crying because I was scared and because the pain was getting so bad. I was home alone, 30 mins from the office and my work. My boyfriend was at work which was 10 minutes away. I called the OB back and told her, she told me to come in and they'll set up an emergency ultrasound with the office under them (convenient). I was hysterical...crying and in pain but I managed to drive myself to my work, where my mom also works. I also called my boyfriend on the way there. I got to my work and my mom and my boyfriend were waiting for me. I didnt even know he was coming up. He had to practically carry me to the car cuz I hurt so bad. But 10 minutes later we were there. I was still crying, mostly because I was so afraid for my baby. I waited for about 10 minutes in the office. We all went back to the room. I went to the change room and emptied my bladder. Unfortunatly I emptied my uterus too, because I saw the baby come out..I freaked out and called my mom in there and she just helped me to the U/s table. Well I was empty when they checked me. Me and my boyfriend were both balling. After we left, we went back to my work but I didnt want to drive so I left my car there and my boyfriend drove us home. It was the saddest day of my life..I would do anything to have my baby back. I would be 31 weeks right now..almost ready to welcome my baby to the world..I'm okay now, but for a while I was just depressed. Most painful thing Ive ever gone through.

My first miscarriage was at 9 wks.  I had some very minimal bright red spotting...went to the ER and they found no HB but said I should wait until my scheduled ob appt which would have been my first appt.  SO I did and again there was no heartbeat.  I was almost 3 months at the time but the baby only measured 9 wks 5 days.  I requested to wait 2 weeks to see if my body would pass things on its own but it didn't and I had a d & c the day after christmas of 1999.  They said nothing was abnormal.

It took me until November of 2000 to get pregnant again.  That pregnancy ended at 37 wks 3 days in Aug 01 with a stillbirth resulting from cord strangulation.

it took me until Oct 02 to get pregnant again that pregnancy was fine and so was the one following

In Aug 07 I miscarried at approx 5-6 weeks.  I had a pos preg. test and a week later started spotting...the ER said I was either earlier than I thought or was miscarrying.  My doc shot me in the butt with progesterone hoping to help boost it but it didn't work, a few days later I started cramping really really bad and bleeding.  I finally passed some tissue in the toilet at home but didn't bother fishing it out.  

It took approx  5 weeks after the m/c to get my next AF...I had two AF's and got pregnant again in Nov and am currently 18 wks

Hi Nadia,

Thank you for replying to my post, in answer to your question we discovered at both 12 week scans that I had had missed miscarriages, they said the baby in the first one had reached just over 6 weeks and the one last week was around 9 and a half weeks when it stopped developing.
I'm sure everything will be fine with you, just try to stayed calm and not worry too much.

Let me know how you get on.

Take care,

Sinead

I had a m/c on the 28th of Feb. I was between 4 -5 wks.  It started out as old blood then went to bright red blood. Went to the ER on the 25th and the did blood work and my HCG levels were only 467. I went in the the 27th for a normal u/s and they said that the sac had grown, even tho I had been bleeding since the Sat before.  Then woke up on Thursday morning with lower ab cramps. I told my DH that I felt like I was getting AF, bc I hurt so bad. I called my Ob office and spoke to a nurse, she had the nerve to tell me that that was common in early pregnancy and that I may have a UTI. Then I was taking a shower bc I was trying to lessen the pain and I thought that would help, I asked my hubby to call them again and see what I needed to do and if I could use anything to help with the pain. That nurse told him that I needed to come in right away. So we went and they told me that I was in the process of m/c and then she checked to see if the 'tissue' was at the opening of my cervix, it was, and she got it out to send off to the lab to see what had caused it.  
I just finished bleeding from it. FINALLY!! So hopefully if it is God's will, we will get pregnant this month and hopefully it will be a healthy baby that I will be able to carry to full term.
God has a plan for all of us. Even though we may not think it, He does know what is best for us and only has our best interests at heart.

God bless

I started spotting redish pink when I was 6w2d went to the hospital and they did blood work and an ultrasound which showed a baby with a good heartrate and that everything looked fine. Two weeks later I went to get a rountine ultrasound and it showed a baby that had only developed to 6w4d. I ended up getting a D&C got pregnant again 6 weeks later and now have a beautiful healthy 2 month old daughter. :)
