I've just experienced my 2nd miscarriage yesterday (1st mc at 5 weeks before GP appointment- not quite as traumatic as didn't feel pregnant, this one I'm 9 weeks but baby stopped developing at 5.5 weeks).
I had an emergency scan 2 days ago after some brown spotting, during which the nurse told me I was wrong with my dates and everything was perfectly healthy, and I was just 5.5 weeks along and nothing to worry about. Less than 24 hours later I had a full miscarriage.
Finding the Drs really unhelpful. Phoned yesterday when bleeding heavily and in A LOT of pain, and was told that the Dr would phone back with a date for another scan. He never called back so I phoned again this morning to ask what the heck I do know. Nurse told me just to sit tight, it definitely sounded like a miscarriage, there was nothing they could do and if the pregnancy test was positive next week then phone back.
I feel completely abandoned! What next! Are 2 miscarriages in 4 months normal? Should I be bugging the Dr for tests to find out why this is happening? I feel like I could handle another miscarriage but I am not sure my poor mother could! How long to I wait before TTC? Should I expect more help/ advice? Does anyone have any positive stories to keep my hopes up!
This is my first post on MN but not sure where else to go!
