Bruno, I don't know what to say as have had no experience of this, but didn't want to leave you unanswered.

I hope everything turns out OK or you. 7 or less weeks is early to see a heartbeat I believe anyway, and surely the rise in hcg levels is a good thing?

Someone will be along who knows lots soon.

I hope MN can be a tower of strength for you.

christiana, my hcgs are being done every 48hrs at the same time.
i got told that they couldnt see anythin unless you have 2000 or more hcgs in your body.
i just dont know what 2 think anymore!

im feeling fine apart from abit upset cause i think the worst is going 2 happen but apart from that ok.
not 1st, got 2 boys already but would really like another 1 now.
if the worst is happening, when would u say 2 start trying again?
i know your not a doc or anythin and u cant say when it will happen, but would i be ok 2 start right away or not?
and when is the best time 2 try?

Just to say I had similar situation and I'm sorry but your HCGs should be doubling every 48 hours. Mine didn't, coupled with bleeding and nothing seen on scan I m/c's at 7 weeks. With my DS I bled at 6 weeks and saw heartbeat at 6.5 weeks.

My doc did say after m/c that we could start trying immediately after one normal period cycle.

So sorry you are going through this, it is horrible.

tinselcoveredwilkie, thanks, think im just preparing myself for the worst now, not much point staying postive anymore. i was really looking forward 2 another little one(suppose every1 does though).

agree with you when you its horrible!
was really happy cause it takes me quite a while 2 fall pregnant and then this happens!

thanks again

I hope everything works out for you. I had a mc at 10 weeks in the summer after bleeding but as the Drs told me at the time bleeding does not always mean bad news. Also the Dr was worried about me this time as there was a sac but nothing in it (after bleeding again), a week later there was a blob complete with heartbeat and they changed the weeks I was pregnant. I have everything crossed for you.

I miscarried the 2nd of July - I had a natural one so that lasted 2 weeks. My period came back mid August and I got pregnant in December. A girl I know who had a natural mc got pregnant 7 weeks after.
Don't give up hope just yet. x

I don't know nything about hcgs. I have had mcs in the past so understand the horrible rollercoaster you're on right now.

Just to say that I bled between 5-11 weeks with both my live childre (the first was born after 5 early mcs), so bleeding doesn't mean anything in itself.
