Hi, the grief of my miscarriage is lessening but i find I have nagging questions that won't go away- does anyone know any answers to them or did anyone experience the same things?
About 7 days after conceiving I had really bad sickness and runs for about 24 hours with no discernable cause- was this something to do with my body and the pregnancy implanting and maybe my body just knowing it was wrong??
Between 6 and 7 weeks I was very ill with a throat infection and spent a day in bed before having to go on a school camping trip for three days which I then followed up with a festival for a weekend - how stupid was this exactly?! The midwife I called said it was ok and that I should just 'live life' but is camping bad? Is tiredness bad? Could the throat virus have caused problems? Can being ill like this cause a miscarriage?
When I went for the scan the sonographer said that the sac was misshapen and that maybe there had been a blood clot next to it or maybe it had just never formed properly- what does this mean? Why wouldn't it have formed properly? If it was a blood clot then would I be best off taking aspirin next time?
At the first scan the sonographer said that although the pregnancy was small for dates (7.5 wks, not 9) there was a heartbeat though there was 'some debris' in the sac- does anyone know what this means? The next day there was no heartbeat so what sort of miscarriage did I have- missed or blighted ovum?
Sorry to overload with questions, it's just that they are really nagging at me now, I know I should ask the doctor, but just wondered if anyone had had similar or knew anything that could cast a bit of light on this? Thanks!
