Am I Miscarrying?xx

[traceyh333]

Hi All,
I hope I don't dampen anyone's spirits but I am worried and have a (rather gross) enquiry. My story is-I am approx 5/6wks pregnant,by my LMP i should be 7+1 but had a scan last week at EPC and was measuring just 5+4,instead if 6+3,but I do know I ovulated later than ovualtion calendar predicted in Aug. I had a MC in July so had an apt for early scan as was anxious and result was a sac and foetal pole but no HB as measuirng too small and was too early. Anyway,I started to bleed on Sunday-initially was dark blood and immediately rushed into EPC. Doc was lovely-exmained me (smeary thingy) and told me my cervix was closed. Did a scan and found sac and foetal pole but still no HB and said I was very early so wouldnt expect to see HB. As he couldnt find my notes from my previous apt (mere days before!!)he couldnt compare the scan results to see of growth but I know I was measuring 0.15cm on Wed and think I heard doc mention 0.77 or 0.17cm on Sunday-dont know but there was a 7 in there somewhere when he was chatting the other doc. My bleeding has continued , am now wearing a pad,but not soaking it and it has become brghter (Sorry if TMI) Today,my bleeding has eased and I dont have any pain-hd some mild dull pain last night but nothing today. When I had my previous MC i knew for def when I 'passed' the 'products(HATE that ref) but I am wondering will I know,as I am earlier,if I 'pass' them this time? What do I expect? I dont expect anyone to be graphic but does this bleeding constitute a MC for def? How long should I wait to pass them without giving myself false hope? I have another apt next Wed at EPC should I make an earlier one? Or just wait and see? I'm sorry this is such a ramble. Absolutely devastated.xx

Sorry you are going through such a tough time. The truth is that nobody can say for sure if you are miscarrying, some ladies do have bleeds and all turns out to be fine. Phone epu tomorrow and explain what had happened, they may see you earlier. Fx fir you, hope everything is ok x

I'm a bit clueless but could it be a chemical? Don't know what a chemical preg is-anyone?

 

[SunnySue]

A chemical is when you test early ie before af us due, get a positive result but the pregnancy ending and af arrives as usual. I'm not sure of statistics but they say many women never know they have even been pregnant as they don't tend to test so early (unless they are ttc and poas addicts!). If you were estimated to be 5/6 weeks then this would be an early miscarriage not a chemical (that is IF you are having a loss, please stay positive) x

thanks sunny sue,do you think i should contact epc or just wait until apt next wed? X

 

[SunnySue]

I would contact them just in case they will see you any earlier, being in limbo until weds is going to be torture. Hope they can see you and that everything is ok x
