[PriceFamily91611]

I'm extremely scared right now and I dont know what to think or do, they said that I will be having a miscarriage but as a lot of u know im not bleeding or anything yet, for over a week i still have cravings and get sick, it stopped about 4 wks and then picked back up last week, well today im extremely sick to my stomach and i know its not what i ate because i had a muffin. ive been getting really hungry craving and sick but they say my baby is dead, if this is so why am i still having these things go on?? does ur body get sick like this going threw one, my last miscarriage i just started bleeding and clotting really bad and i knew something was wrong, this time we found out by ultrasound. im beginning to wonder if the baby is alive because i do believe in miracles and God can do anything.

i just didnt know if i could b feeling like this bc my body is trying to miscarry. please help

with a blighted ovum, which is prob what you have, things like the placenta can keep growing which will give you pregnancy symptoms because your hcg levels are still gowing up, it can take a while for your body to realise that no baby has formed, and then for your hcg levels to start to drop.... in saying this, I remember a post that you said you were having all this discharge and to me it sounded like fertile muccous, which I said, and you said it couldnt be cause you had taken the clomid so knew when you ovulated.... I dont know but I just keep on thinking that maybe you didnt ovulate when you thought, but that odesnt explain the early positive or the slight rise in hcg, your best bet is the follow up u/s, then you will see any growth if any and to what extent and you can make an informed decision from there

Within two weeks your hcg didn't double, it didn't even rise by 500. While the numbers themselves don't indicate a miscarriage, its what the numbers do. And yours have not risen enough to be able to say that its a healthy, viable pregnancy. Your doctor should have had you in every two days to check your levels. You're going to feel pregnant as long as there's hcg present.

If you're positive that a miracle has taken place, go to the er.

I had a miscarriage in april . N i felt totally pregnant . I went to my dr appointment n dey told me my baby had to b dead for atleast 2 weeks . So its normal that you feel pregnant now and for about 6 more weeks after this . It will start fading away week by week though . Hope i help . N im sorry for ur loss . I know exactly how you feel .

have they tested your hcg levels every 48hours?? or offered another scan?

I'm sorry, I don't mean to be blunt but if your levels are not rising and the sac has not developed, it is a blighted ovum or a miscarriage. I don't want to give you false hope about this :-(.

The reason you still have symptoms is because your body still has hCG in it. hCG is what causes the symptoms, and it has nothing to do with how well the pregnancy is progressing unfortunately. We've had many women on here with missed miscarriages who had weeks and weeks of symptoms only to go in at 8/9/10+wks and discover that the baby hadn't developed in over a month or more.

Until your body miscarries, or you get a dnc, you will continue to have symptoms most likely...and this is normal.

I would love to think that the baby has survived, but the only way to know would be to a follow-up ultrasound....and you are of course entitled to do one if you are concerned.
