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 miscarried at 10 weeks. i had spotted light pink 3 days before my miscarriage. i didn't go to the hospital b/c my mom said it wasn't uncommon to spot during pregnancy. she told me just to lay down and prop my feet up and get some rest. i did that but the daysleading up to my miscarriage i began to bleed more heavily. that's when i began to really worry. by the time the third daycame around i was bleeding so heavily that i had to go to the ER. i had a vaginal ultrasound done and we could see a sac but it was empty. there was no heartbeat or anything. the docs were worried b/c i was losing so much blood that they had to give me that pill that i guess helps the miscarriage along. (not sure what it's called but i think it started with a M) before i went to the ER i had gone to the bathroom and passed what was a very large looking clot (i think that was my baby) but being young, i didn't know not to flush it so i'll never know for sure. however, when i was in the ER i did pass another large clot while lying in the bed. again, being young, i didn't know to ask questions. but after that clot passed they did another vaginal u/s and the empty sac was gone.

both of mine were around 6-7 weeks. i wiped with my first and noticed blood . i was cramping on my right side. it was very painful. later that week i was at my dr ap.and went for a urine sample and nothing but blood came out. the us showed nothing there. i bleed for 4 days. my second i was cramping with no spotting. went to the dr. and they only did blood work since there was no blood yet. they called me later that day and said i was m/c again. the bleeding started a few days later . and my back hurt really bad.. i passed so much clots it would be all in the toilet and on my pads. at times it just gushed out. i thought it was excessive for only being 6-7 weeks.  this was the hardest thing i have ever been through.. i dont want to go through it again.. even though i love babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I woke up one morning and saw some brown/dried blood specs when I went to the bathroom.  I immediately panicked and called my obgyn office.  They had me come for a transvaginal ultrasound (it was my first ultrasound...I had one actually scheduled the following week and I was so looking forward to it).  Well, the doctor saw a sac that measured 8w3days without a baby.  They said the brown was dried blood and that he got some fresh blood while he was up there-thus the process had started...I was in denial and had read about misdiagnosed miscarriages so I asked to come back in another week to double check and then listen to their miscarriage bologna!  One week later I went in and still jus the sac, no baby =(  devastated I decided to go with the misoprostol procedure the next week (he told me that I could wait it out and let it go naturally on its own time or do the misoprostol...he didn't like the idea of a d&c but gave it to me as a choice...he said anytime you can do something that is non-invasive and doesn't include anesthesia, it is better (his opinion...I believed him...)  Anyways,  here I am in March ttc!  Wishing and Hoping to be prego this very minute!  Got my period in January but missed it in February-keeping my fingers crossed!

I was 15 weeks when I miscarried.  I, too, had a missed miscarriage.  Our baby measured 13 weeks.  I had no symptoms at all... in fact, we thought that we might even find out the sex of our baby that day (at our 15 week appt.).  There was no heartbeat to be seen.  So, I went in for a D & C that afternoon.  They have no clue what when wrong... they suspect that when I was sick for a little over a 1 1/2 weeks and my temp rose to 102 degrees, that the baby was just not able to handle that environment.  So, we ASSUME that was the cause of her demise.  We are pregnant again (only 5 weeks) so hopefully this pregnancy goes better this time around :)
