Had u/s today.
Nothing!
Doc said more than likely I'll be starting to miscarry soon. *OR* very slightly chance of being not far along enough to show anything.

But when I got home, I had lots of cramps and brown bleeding.

Waiting for blood results...

This will be my first m/c....this hurts!!!!:cry:

oh sweetie I am so sorry to hear that the u/s did not go well :hugs:

did the dr do an internal u/s? If so then the cramps and brown bleeding could be coming from the u/s irritating your cervix

there still might be hope hang in there for the bloodwork hun :hugs:
hopefully you are just not as far along as you thought

The *earliest* I could be is 4wks 1day.

I did have an interal u/s, a pap smear AND a pelvic exam.

I took a pg test again (forcing the pee out) and still positive, but should be darker! Although, maybe 4wks 1day wouldn't be as dark!

I'm so lost right now!
Tomorrow I'll get the results from the first blood draw, then go back wednesday morning for the second result!

I want to know SOOOOOO bad!

I cannot believe how painful this is.

A part of me just doens't feel pregnant, but a part of me doesn't feel like I can say I'm having a m/c!

Can't wait until tomorrow to see the first set of numbers. I already know that the first set will not tell anything, but I just want to see how high it is, and maybe that will correlate with the empty u/s!!!

I go for a few hours of not crying and feeling ok. I keep telling myself that the baby just wansn't ok, and it's God way of taking it back....
then I start just bursting into tears and crying hard.

hey,

its very possible not to see anything on the u/s if you are even 5 weeks pregnant...sometimes 6...if you have a tilted uterus, even further along.

i wouldn't assume anything until you get your betas back. the brown bleeding and cramping could very well be from the internal exam...and a pap smear? well, those are a bit invasive and your cervix, when pregnant, is very sensitive...

try to have faith.

i am keeping you in my prayers.

The dar brown watery blood turned to brown spot. Mostly on TP, some on panties.

Nothing came of it during the evening/night.

Woke up this morning, with dark brown watery blood on TP. Now fading to spot again.

Waiting to get beta numbers back from m/w...but keep getting answering machine!

minor cramps. nothing too painful!

Please Lord, help me through this!!!!

I don't want to help or hurt the situation, but with ds - my first beta levels were in the mid 200s... he was conceived right after a m/c so I had no idea where I was at in my cycle, I was afraid it might be residual hcg or that I was bound to m/c again (after 2 before him, I was really scared). Anyway, just turned out I was BARELY pregnant (i tested at 10dpo), next levels came back higher and now he's 2. I hope your story sounds like mine in the next few days, keep the hope mama. :hugs: and prayers.

Went and got the second beta drawn today!
The lab tech said they will get it tomorrow, but I'm going to call this afternoon and see if they are in today! Then I'm going to harass the doc until I get the results!

I need at least a number of 500 to make me feel better, although I'm feeling it will be lower, or even worse, at tiny bit higher.

So, after harassing the lab staff, I know NOTHING!

I asked, begged, pleaded, and cried over the phone to get them to process the numbers TODAY!
The lady said that the doc has to do them and even if they did them that day, they couldn't give me the numbers over the phone because my name isn't on the original order!!!

AARrrggghhhhhhh....WHY?????

It's **MY** friggin body! How can someone tell me that I can't know about **MY** body!

So, tomorrow I have get them!

I'm not spotting anymore. My last spot was more of a yellow/brown (TMI..Like Diarrhea)....

I'm still going to the appt at the birth center. I told them the WHOLE situation and they said to still come in. I can talk to the nurse then.

I was having gut feelings that everything was all bad, but looking back at my chart and all the spotting and whatnot, and I was sick, I totally could have O'd late!

I don't think I've prayed so much in my life! I just want a healthy baby. I'm so afraid of m/c, and don't know if I can handle emotionally!

McMamma38
07-09-2008, 07:56 PM
Oh sweetie--:hugs: :hugs: I'm praying right along w/everyone else that you and this tiny new life are just fine! It's so very early--hang in there.
I dont think you'd see anything even w/trans vag u/s this early.
My earliest u/s was at 5 weeks--and I saw the gestational sack.I had to go in to confirm a fhb and everything the next week--and there it was beating away.
It does hurt real bad--I lost this babe at 8 weeks.But happily went on to concieve our dd Sarah 4 months later.:thumbsup:

07-09-2008, 10:16 PM
I really do enjoy the kind words and support!

Just yesturday I had the worst feeling. I just felt that this baby would not make it. That nothing even developed. But everytime I started crying, I felt like I was crying over nothing! That there was still hope!

Today, I have mixed feelings, although I just don't think one of them is that the baby is really gone.

I took another HPT (I think #15) and it's BLARING +++ My first real BLARING +. If my HCG was 221 2 days ago, and I m/c I don't think this test should be THIS +, especially since the HCG sensitiy is 100/mIU, and within 45 seconds!!!

Just send prayers or happy vibes...whatever your belief is...send it to me and my miracle!

I really do appreciate ALL your support! You can't imagine how much it means to me! (although I'm sure some of you do!)

not quite 8am yet here.
I think the lab opens at 8am. I know they can't give me the results, but I'm going to sweet talk them into at least telling me if it double, or am I save to say I'm still healthy pregnant!

My stomach is in knots! I feel like puking!
Again, no spotting this morning!
Lastnight before bed, I had some FAINT brown tinged thick CM. Which I'm quessing is left over from my cervix, and I'm sure it's from the pap smear. I have a VERY sensitive cervix due to Laps I've had on it!

Started gushing red blood. Went to the ER. U/S showed no baby. cervix is open, and my hCG crashed!
Doctor is happy that my body is doing this naturally and doesn't need any medical help, which will make a easier recovery, and recommends TTA for 3mths.
I'm TTA until Jan 2009, unless an oops happens. I want to get my cycles normal and get my body healthy as possible!

U/S today didn't show much new news.
Still an empty uterus, and empty fallopian tubes. Although, the tech said my cervix was tightly closed with no blood in the uterus, and no signs of a m/c! My uterus is super thick, and kept telling me it was to early...I tried to explain my week to her, but her response was..it's too early. Even if you were 6wks, becasue I have a tilted uterus, it could be too early!

I didn't get my blood drawn due to the wait!

Yep...I glady kept all hands and legs inside the ride until it came to a full and complete stop and I'm pleased to get off!

Please let the rest of this go smooth!

Although I'm still spotting a bit of brown, but nothing too much and nothing really new!

WOW...12 PAGES???

So, today I had some red blood, however I'm not worried about it, as it was one spot and haven't had one cramp!

We all think it's a boy! Josef Alexander Wolf (not adding our lastname) is his name!

I got a dresser for the baby, clothes and a pack n play for it today. My neighbor is having garage sale and when I told her that the baby is there, she started handing me things!

I SOOOO hope for a h/b next monday (7/28).

I've been following this as well and just wanted to say Yay!

I went through almost the same exact thing with my youngest -- but I was told by an ER OB that I HAD miscarried and it took 2 weeks before the m/w could find a heartbeat. But she did and my LO just turned 1 in May!

Congrats I know what a roller coaster you a riding right now.

pKate-Thanks so much for the encouraging stories! I really do love hearing stories that end up good!

I know that only God will decide what happens to the miracle inside me. It is just so different from my girls, that it's really hard to have something be different then my "baseline" pregnancy ways! KWIM?

I already bought some dipes today! My mom keeps talking about the baby and is so excited!
We keep praying as a family everyday that my baby be born to us in March healthy! I count my blessing daily, and very grateful for this little miracle!

Oh, and I also made a payment towards my TON of wool that was BEAUTFIULY knited by Daisy Knits here on DS! She does AMAZING work and VERY nice to work with!!!!!!
Her name is tricia and she is a blessing as well!

Wow mama, I have to say I went through this with my DS! I had some bright red bleeding early on and was told I was miscarrying before they did my betas. After they did the betas my MW told me I was having multiples because they were so high! Only one LO here, but he is perfectly healthy not to mention smart as a whip! I know you will have the same! =)

Good LUCK! I'm praying for you!

I had some red spotting today, and minor cramps. Although I think it might be from constipation. (TMI).
Next monday...almost there!

I should see the h/b at 7wk 1dy right???

07-21-2008, 04:07 PM
I would think so, we saw ds' at 7wk 6dy, FWIW - I spotted a ton with ds up until 11 weeks :hugs:. I hope you see your beautiful baby's hb on Monday, keep us posted.

I saw my beans hb on a trans vag u/s at 6 weeks.I lost this one--but I remember I had to go in at 6 weeks to confirm a fhb,since a u/s done at 5 weeks only showed the gestational sac and the tiny fetal pole.
Goodluck!:thumbsup:
With my long wonky cycles I thought I was 8 weeks pg--only to find out I was 5!:giggle:

My last u/s showed only a sac, and maybe a yolk sac. That was a huge step from all the empy u/s's!
I PRAY that we see a h/b and continue on with a healthy pregnancy! I'm so sorry you lost your last baby! I know how much that hurts!

Thanks.That baby was lost 4 months before we concieved Dd Sarah(in my avi).My last loss was Gracie at 18 weeks 3 days gestation last June07.She had a fatal nueral tube birth defect called anencephaly or acrania.:cry:
I feel like this is enough losses for me!

My heart goes out to mamas that have had more than I have,I truely cannot imagine the heartache.

Excited for your next update!:thumbsup: Goodluck on the next u/s!!:goodvibes:

Yep...it's the end!
My cervix was open. U/S showed nothing but 3 different areas of blood in my uterus that are right at my cervix.
I'm bleeding pretty steady now. No pain though!
Doc said I could try again whenever I want.
My HcG was only 5800 (from 2148 a week ago).

i hope you heal quickly...there aren't enough words to use to convey the disappointment that comes from a loss...especially one that has had you up and down so frequently.

so yeah. i hope you heal quickly and that when you do decide to try again, that it is easy as pie and w/o drama.

xo.

Oh mama, I'm sure your heart is breaking - I have felt that pain so many times. Time will heal it but take time to grieve. There aren't words that make it feel better right now, I just wanted to offer my care and support, if you ever need to talk, feel free to pm me. :hugs:

Thanks Mamas!

I had a good talk with the doc lastnight!
She was really awesome! Very sensitive to my needs and emotions. Held my hand when I started crying! Very awesome doc!

I talked to her about TTC again. She said to go ahead and do it when I want. That my body will begin ovulating again when my body is ready! And that this m/c won't affect my future pregnancies!

I'm going to try a job switch! My job is super stressful. Will go back to school next semester to finish up some pre-nursing classes, but then try to go for phlebotomy or something like that!

i'm so glad you had a compassionate dr, that really makes a difference :hugs:

Yes it really does! Mine was super when I lost both of my babies--he held my hand while I cried and both before the labor induction w/Gracie and afterward he held me in a huge hug and sat with me a long time afterwards.LOVE my OB--Dh was very impressed as well.

I wish you all the luck and Godspeed on your recovery and ttc efforts when your ready.
Heads up--both my Ob and the nurse at his practice told me that a woman can be very fertile right after a early loss due to the higher cerculating hormones or something.I concieved our Dd Sarah 4 months after my early loss at 8 weeks.
With Gracie's birth and ttc afterward--it's been a long frustarting struggle.I think because my milk came in after her birth and being midway through the pregnancy when I birthed/lost her--I was messed up ttc wise.:headscratch:
My LaLeche Leader (or one of them)is a birth doula who attends homebirths w/ a midwife here locally said That I needed time to heal after Gracie's birth-that I should treat it as if I went full term--that it could take a yr.before I got pregnant again.Not sure--but we're still ttc 13 months later.

Hugs again.:hugs: :thumbsup:

I'm waiting for my body to regulate itself. We will be avoiding, using condoms if I ever feel like DTD again.
I want to wait until at least next jan or so.

I stopped bleeding lastnight. Nothing today so far.
Waiting for this thing to finish itself!

So sorry you are going through this.

Feel free to PM me If you EVER need to let it out (I know I'm a stranger). Sometimes it's hard for even our loved ones to listen or understand.

Today I'm just in a state of confusion!
I'm not bleeding anymore, but cramping! I always feel "wet" so I run to the bathroom, but there is nothing but creamy CM. Most of my bleeding is EWCM-ish looking bloody stuff!

I have no idea how long this will take! I just want my body back! I want this to be all over!

How long does this usually take!
I'm bleeding off and on. One day of no bleeding, then I bleed the next! Does my HcG have to be all the way down before I start having periods again?

Where is my definte answer???

monstersmom
07-25-2008, 01:12 PM
i will just tell you that with both of my recent losses i bled for like 4 days in that wierd on and off pattern that was the first then the second. I had on huge gush with a very large clot (i was 11 weeks) followed by heavy bleeding for the rest of that night and a lot of pelvic cramping and soarness... then about 4 more days of on off bleeding then about 2 weeks later i got my period... hope that helps... if you need someone to talk to let me know i have been through this 3 times.

Thanks!
My m/w called me (I swear, I LOVE that birth center) and she was very sensitive to all 1,548,596,102 questions I had. She said that most women just have a heavy period, but ooohhh..I'm FAR from most women. So I fall into the category of the percentage of women who spot on and off for a few weeks, or just a few days!

No bleeding today. I swear, I think part of me is trying to O. I'm having O pains and VERY EWCM. My sex drive is even thriving.
The other night I dreamed of S.O. and I joining the *MILE HIGH CLUB* :blush:

So it's either crazy pregnancy hormones and crazy dreams, or just my body is out of wack!
