I just wanted to write about my experience - I hope you don't mind. Firstly, my heart goes out to anyone who is going through a miscarriage....there are no words to describe how hard it is emotionally and physically. I had two miscarriages years ago (both fairly early - 6 and 8 weeks). Then I went on to have a gorgeous daughter who is now 4. I turned 40 this year and thought I would never be able to have a brother or sister for my daughter but low and behold, on New Years Day, I did a test as I was "late" and I found out I was pg. Last Tuesday I started to get a brown discharge. This continued all day Wed and Thurs. I got an appt at the EPAU and they did a scan on Thurs. Sonographer was awful - cold and as if she didnt care. She couldn't see anything except a "mass" and fibroids. HCG levels were 1700 so there was concern for an eptopic. Started bleeding that night and Went back on Sat for another blood test and waited all day for results. Bleeding got heavier with clots. 8pm that night the dr calls and says the levels are now 2200 - not enough for everything to be ok and serious concerns for eptopic. Back in yesterday for a scan. Different sonographer who was lovely. Scan showed a sac and a baby with no heartbeat - roughly 3.2mm. She said because of the amount of bleeding, it looked very likely that the sac would come away from the wall and miscarry naturally. I could not understand how the first sonographer saw nothing and then 4 days later, there was a sac there with a baby. I did ask the dr and he said 4 days can make a difference but also it depends on who does the scan as some sonographers are better than others.....! They could not advise me to have a D&C yet as they would not expect to see a hb until baby measures 6mm...although they are positive I am miscarrying, they cannot say for certain that the baby is not viable. I know in my heart that I am miscarrying. Its a nightmare. Still bleeding very heavily and still with clots. They have said I will probably pass it naturally but have got a scan booked for Thurs so they can check on things. The bleeding is horrible - never had anything like it - every 20 mins more or less - big clots. Sorry if tmi. Mentally I just want it all to be over as there just seems to be one thing after another. It is so hard to keep from my little girl. Out of the blue yesterday she said "I want to have a baby...can you have a baby in your tummy mummy?" And we have not said a word to her about the pregnancy. Kids are so astute! I just wanted to share my experience. Any advice from anyone much appreciated. Big hugs to anyone going through a mc.
