This is my first pregnancy/miscarriage and I totally was not prepared. I found out I was pregnant around 6 wks. I didn't have my first ultrasound until around 10wks but up until that point all my tests were perfectly normal. I am in perfect health and I am in my 20's. I figured I was in the clear for anything like this. I went for my 10 week ultrasound only to see nothing but a pregnancy sack on the ultrasound. No heartbeat, nothing. I returned a week later for another us to make sure I hadn't just conceived at a later date, thus making the baby too small to see. My doctor confirmed it was a mc. Up until that point I'd had no pain, no bleeding, nothing. I was still having pregnancy symptoms, even though it seems I may have lost the baby at 6 weeks.
I would be 13 weeks today and bleeding just started yesterday early morning around 1:30am. It was light bleeding, not even enough to consider a real period, then it went away around 5:30/6:00am. It returned today around 4:00am and it is a little heavier though, still not anything like I'd expect. Still no pain but I'm having nausea.
I have an appointment to see my doctor this Friday to determine if I need to have a D&C done. I am honestly dreading that, I would much rather let it naturally happen.
I am so confused because of my crazy, not "normal" miscarriage symptoms and that is only making the depression worse. Has anyone experienced any of this? How did you cope?
