I tested t on a home pregnacy test about 3 weeks ago. I started light bleeding almost 2 weeks ago. That lasted 3 days stoped for 2 and then started again red only when i used to restroom. I knew right away it was a misscarage and i was almost ok with it because i have 3 wounderfull boys. I went to the ob 3 days ago and was told that there was a pregnacy in my uterus but it was not a healthy pregnacy. I was to expect alo more bleeding. I at the moment am not bledding anmore than i already was. I am not craping and i do not see any blood clots. They are going to keeping up with me to make sure my body does he natrual thing and weather are not i will have to have a dnc. At this point i see mysel nedding a dnc. I did not expect for me to have to go through this so long. I beileve that if someone is bleeding during your early pregnacy that is nothing to lay around with and for your peace of mind get it seen about it right away.
I am 29 years old and healthy. I would have been 12 weeks and 4 days today. Two weeks ago I was bleeding lightly and went to the docs. The doc did a urine test and an examination and said everything was fine. They never did an ultrasound. They told me to come back in 3 weeks for an ultrasound for piece of mind...really 3 weeks?!?! The bleeding stopped that night. 6 days later I started bleeding again and this time it was much heavier, like the 1st day of your period. I went to bed crying because I already knew what was happening. I called my doc the next morning and went in and was told the news I was dreading. Apparently, the baby stopped growing weeks before. If they did an ultrasound the week before that would have been great so my husband and I could have stopped telling people I was having a baby. It has been 5 days and I still have cramping, bleeding that goes from light to heavy, extremely painful lower back pain and even had a fever. I have passed many clots. My doc did tell me it was common and she was not concerned at this point because it was my 1st miscarriage. She also said to just wait 1 period and I could start trying again. I am switching docs because I feel they should have done an ultrasound 6 days prior when I went in the 1st time for bleeding or at least a couple days later (not wait for 3 weeks). I have asked around and have been told by friends that anytime they went in for concerns that the doc did a full examination. Emotionally this is one of the worst things a women can go through. My heart goes out to all going through this and good luck in the future...xoxo
On Thursday, I went in to the clinic for a pregnancy test- after a scare when I was younger, I don't trust the home kits. The results were positive, and they immediately got me into a room for a trans-vaginal ultrasound. As I laid there, I was still trying to wrap my head around the options for this (unplanned) pregnancy. Then, it dawned on me that something was wrong. I have been in the room with friends when they had an US done, even early in the pregnancy. This was taking much longer, and the tech had fallen silent after being cheerful and chatty previously. She told me she had to bring in the LPN, who proceded to do another ultrasound. Finally, they went, got the doctor, and the doctor did an ultrasound. I had a sack, but no yolk or fetal poles- they explained that each ultrasound had included several 360 degree sweeps, and they had still found nothing. Between the measurements of the ultrasound, and a pelvic exam, they ruled out an ectopic pregnancy, and diagnosed me with a blighted ovum. I got dressed, and sat down with the LPN, who went over my options with me- she pointed out that the signs on the ultrasound and tests pointed to me being in the early stages of a miscarriage. I had three- D & C, medication, or waiting. Due to fibroids (a family trait), she recommended either medication, or the D & C. I opted for the medication, and she gave me the first tablet in the office- the one that simply blocks prog. She sent me home with four tablets to disolve in my cheeks 24 to 48 hours later, and perscriptions for vicodin and scopolimine (sp?) patches. On her recommendation, I filled the scrips immediately, and slapped on a patch. I was really grateful, because she was right- in the hour before the patch kicked in, I was so queasy it was painful.
9 pm Thursday night, I started cramping, and felt the urge to go to the bathroom. As soon as I sat down, clots just started pouring out of me. Most of them were the size of a billiard ball. After it stopped, I cleaned up, and went to lay down with vicodin, and a heating pad. Throughout the night, I passed a lot of clots- usually the bouts were about 45 minutes to an hour apart. Finally, at around 5 am, I gave up, took the higher dosage of vicodin that I was allowed, and conked out for 6 hours. When I awoke, I passed a few more clots, but they were getting smaller, and less frequent. By the time I should have taken the second medication, the process had pretty much ended. I was bleeding very lightly, and the cramps were back where tylenol was enough. I'm still not sure how I feel about the whole thing- I'm numb, combined with hormonal weird moods. I started crying at the tv show my partner had on, so I think I'm going to hold off any opinion forming until my body chemistry settles back down.
