Misscarriage ????

[Ajay007]

hi i wonder if any one can help ??? well i started bleeding at 8wks i had a scan and was told i lost a twin they could see the other twin sac but it had died but the baby moved so they then saw a faint heartbeat which was lucky cos they wanted to do a D&C well i then went bk and had another scan at 10 wks but sadly was told i also lost the other twin but they think a very little bit of tissue is left i choose not to have a D&C and see if it goes on it own so im booked to have another scan in 10days time but im still getting all the pregency systoms and my friend told me this is not normal after a missicariage so ive done another test and its come back postive so now im really really confused so can any one help me ???

So sorry for your losses

Until the remaining tissue which they think is left comes away, you can continue to have symptons, and you will continue to have a positive pregnancy test.

In a normal miscarriage your friend would be right, but because it seems as though the second twin has not come away, this is called a missed miscarriage and until it comes away by itself or you have a D&C, your symptoms will carry on.

Please ask here if you have any questions, people are amazing and really helped me. Please take care of yourself and hope you have lots of support in RL.

take care x

Hi, So sorry for your losses, I have now had 7 mc's my last one being a mmc I was carrying around my dead baby for over 2 weeks and still had pregnancy symptoms. I had a scan on Friday and I still have tissue remaining. After a mc your hcg levels will not return to normal until 6 wks after this is why pregnancy test will come up as positive.

I hope this bit of information helps you.

Best wishes

HI Thank -u wellieboots and caz oh ok never realised cos the doc told me u only had systoms for 10 days, and omg caz 7 how have u coped wit so many soorry to ask xx and have any of u had a D & C cos im scared to have it done thats y i choose to wait and see if it happens on its own !!!

Hi Ajay,

I'm really sorry to hear of your loss. Just to reassure you I too had pg symptoms at 10 weks even though a scan showed baby had stopped growing at about 6 weeks and had no heart beat. The nurse told me it was normal to still "feel" pg whilst there is something there.

Take care of yourself x

sorry for your losses, i have had 2 mmc and with the 1st the baby had died 3 weeks before i had any signs and i had symptoms until after my d&c, the d&c itself was absolutely fine for me and i stopped bleeding str8 away, the only downside is deciding if you want to have it because of the general anesthetic, hope this helps xxx

Hi again Ajay007, I have found it really hard this time coping but at least now I am being referred for tests so hopefully something can be sorted. Me and my partner are determined to have a baby together. I myself have never had a d&c wanted each one of them to end naturally and all mc's are different some feel like very bad period pains others have been like labour pains some progress quicker and others are very slow and the waiting for it to happen is the hardest bit. I suppose it all depends on the person and how they are feeling or if they cope with the pain. Me just being me wanted it to happen naturally.

All the best.

Sorry to hear what's happened.

My baby died at 6 weeks also. MMC was diagnosed at 11 weeks and I got a +pg test at 12 weeks so it can take a long time to leave your system.

ok thank u every one and im sooo sorry carron i hope the tests come bk ok if u see wot i mean and this is my second misscarriage but i had my 1st many yrs ago and they never really did anything then till u was 12wks and i also had one at 23ws prg but i have had 5 loverly children, and i hope u have the same happiness soon thinking of u !!!
