A few questions for anyone who has had a miscarriage...?
Well, first off I want to say that I found out I was going to miscarry from an ultrasound done Monday I was supposed to be ten weeks and apparently it had stopped developing at about 7. I started to spot with a bit of dark blood on Friday and it has stayed pretty much the same, pretty light with some cramping. This is absolutely devastating and I want to say I feel terrible for anyone who has ever had to go through this. Anyway, my questions are...
How long did your bleeding last and how heavy was it, will there definitely be heavy clotting or could it just come out like a regular period?
Did you have to have an ultrasound afterwards to make sure everything was out or any other type of follow up care?
How long did you have to wait to resume having sex?
How long did you wait before trying to conceive again and how long did it take for you to conceive again?
Also was this your first pregnancy I thought it was more common for a first pregnancy and this was my third I had two healthy babies prior to this and am wondering if its normal to happen now?
And lastly, did you miscarry again do your chances go up for having another one should I be worried that after trying again it will end the same way?
Thankyou!

How long did your bleeding last and how heavy was it, will there definitely be heavy clotting or could it just come out like a regular period? I had heavy bleeding for a short time then it slowed down into a regular period type flow within a week and completely stopped within 3 weeks.
Did you have to have an ultrasound afterwards to make sure everything was out or any other type of follow up care? You can get a D&C which will clean you out but they are a little risky and I would talk to you dr. about wether or not they think it is necessary first. This is morbid but with my miscarriage the actual fetus came out and I saw it.
How long did you have to wait to resume having sex? I think about until it stopped bleeding just cause that's when we felt comfortable to start doing it again.
How long did you wait before trying to conceive again and how long did it take for you to conceive again? My miscarriage was a result of an unplanned pregnancy so we did not try again for almost 2 years. It took us within a 10 day time frame for me to get pregnant because my husband was home on xmas leave [he's military] so I know this is exactly when it happened.
Also was this your first pregnancy I thought it was more common for a first pregnancy and this was my third I had two healthy babies prior to this and am wondering if its normal to happen now? A miscarriage can always happen. It just means your child wouldn't have came out healthy or had a birth defect if it happened to be born. Its your bodys way of I guess eliminating something unhealthy.
And lastly, did you miscarry again do your chances go up for having another one should I be worried that after trying again it will end the same way? A child is always a blessing. It hurts to lose a baby. But I can tell you the joy of a child outweighs the sorrow of a miscarriage. I am sorry for your lose.

I'm going to answer regarding my missed pregnancy because that's the one I had medical care for.
1. My bleeding lasted 4 weeks and I had a D&C. It wasn't heavy but it was like a regular period, but I had the D&C which removed a lot of the tissue and the baby. [I lost the baby at 11.5 weeks had D&C at 19 weeks]
2. I had to have an ultrasound because I wouldn't stop bleeding and I had turned anemic and they found out there were some things left behind so I was given a medicine to help expel what was left.
3. I waited 6 weeks, 2 weeks after bleeding to have sex again.
4. I tried conceiving right away but I didn't successfully conceive until May 7th this year.
5. This was my second pregnancy, my first ended in a miscarriage just after I was 6 weeks.
6. I was told your chances of having another are lower after you have one, but I am now pregnant with a healthy baby girl.
I'm sorry for your loss.. it is something hard to go through.

i'm so sorry to take heed to approximately your loss. i myself have had 4 miscarriages. So, i understand the discomfort. that's not something worse than understanding you're pregnant, being satisfied and anticipating slightly one to enhance then loosing it, yet after an abortion you have got an entire term being pregnant. So, shop the religion, yet provide your physique time to heal from the loss. My well-being practitioner instructed me after my first loss to attend a minimum of 1year earlier attempting to conceive back. Why it fairly is, you may ought to ask your well-being practitioner, yet perhaps it has some thing to do with the physique repairing itself. i think of it extremely relies upon on the female nevertheless, simply by fact I extremely have heard of ladies people miscarrying and getting pregnant back in the present day, and that that they had a healthful finished term toddler. So, in case you opt to commence attempting back appropriate away i might say talk your innovations including your caregiver. to respond to your questions re: HCG tiers at 6wks, the point must be around a million,080-fifty six,500. Re: whilst does the bleeding provide up: Mine's stopped in approximately 3 days, yet back each and every woman is distinctive. If it maintains longer than that or in case you have any discomfort or word any heavy bleeding you should touch your well-being practitioner, simply by fact the bleeding is oftentimes mild and there should not be any substantial cramping if all tissues handed out of your physique from the being pregnant. The miscarriage might postpone your established era some weeks from the traditional era you get. finally to respond to your question on the subject of the ER paper artwork pointing out which you had an abortion, don't be alarmed. A miscarriage is seen a spontaneous abortion, which in simple terms potential you probably did no longer circulate in and decide for to terminate the being pregnant, however the loss got here approximately spontaneously. often times the physique will launch the being pregnant on that's on if there is a few thing incorrect interior the form of the fetus or if there is a few thing happening with the mummy. So, earlier attempting back it fairly is fairly useful to chat on your well-being practitioner approximately attempt to make specific you're healthful and that there is not any longer something happening that should sidestep your means to hold a being pregnant to finished term. once you're like me and have undesirable cramps it fairly is fairly useful to be examined for endometriosis and fibroids. those are 2 issues that would forestall conceiving or reason a miscarriage.
