i was so like you as well thats what got to me, i lost my baby nearly 2 weeks ago now and it got to me because we let so many people know but we were so happy and then it happened and you cant help but think stupid things like maybe we jinxed it which is pathetic but mind wanders. The waiting is the worse thing I know I only had to wait like 3 days and that was the worse even when they told me they thought it was fine you cant help but think negatively. Sadly for me it wasnt a threatened miscarriage it happened. I even had a scan and they said cervix closed and saw sac but I knew something wasnt right and it was going to happen. I hope the days go fast its horrible hanging around waiting its mental torture. Losing my baby was not pleasant but once it had happened I could move on hanging around being told theres nothing that can be done makes you want to scream.Good luck

Hey guys,

my first post on here!

So I'm 6 and a half weeks pregnant and on Sat morn I had some bleeding, i went to A&E and they said no1 was available to scan me and to call my gp on Mon morn to get an early scan sorted out.

Called my gp and he was utterly useless! Anyways, soonest i could get booked in for is Friday, 4 days away!!!!!

I bled fresh blood, about a pads worth on Sat morn and then twice after it was a dark brown colour, Ive not had cramps but i did have lower back pain on Sat night. My gp says he reckons Ive already lost the baby. Ive miscarried twice before but both were silent miscarriages and i only found out when going for routine scans. I do have one daughter who is almost 4.

I just don't know what to think, i never had nausea or anything so i cant tell if my symptoms are going although me breasts do seem to be shrinking again.

I don't want to think the worst, i really want to stay positive, am i kidding myself?!?

don't give up hope. My friend had a m/c and then got pregnant again. At 6 weeks she bled but everything was fine and now she has a lovely (but loud!) 6 week old little girl. I don't really know what causes it but if you hadn't been pg, you would prob have been due on about now so maybe it's related to that. Your GP sounds like an idiot! The fact that it turned old and you didn't have cramps has to be a good sign.

Hang on in there, let us know how you get on x x x

hi
I'm new here too, but i lost my baby last week. I'm sorry about what's happening to you, you are right that your gp is useless. When i started bleeding it was 2 weeks before i lost the baby and my gp was wonderful. He said that although bleeding is a sign of m/c it is not conclusive, there are many reasons why you might bleed. If the bleeding is now dark brown that is a good sign as it means it is old blood not fresh.
He booked me in for 2 scans both of which showed the baby alive and well, though sadly lost him anyway.
there is obviously a chance that something is going to go wrong, but this sounds like a threatened miscarriage of which many women experience and two thirds of them end up with a healthy baby ( i was one of the unlucky ones) you really need to bug your gp for a referral to your Early pregnancy unit for a scan which should hopefully help reassure you.
My point is please that whilst i think you should be aware that this may end sadly there is always hope and thinking positively is only a good thing, I really hope evrything ends up ok for you.

Thanks for your reply, I'm just going crazy with the not knowing, i can't stop crying, i think ive already given up!

We live in the North of the Highlands with one hospital which is 60 miles away, it's dealing with people from a huge area and the soonest space they can fit me in is Fri morn. I went up to my gp's surgery with my mother in tow and she demanded to speak to the gynie on call at the hospital. My gp called her and i was allowed to speak to her and she said there is nothing they can do, if i'm miscarrying, I'm miscarrying, waiting until Fri for a scan isn't going to change that. It's soo frustrating!

My daughter know's there is something wrong and it's breaking my heart, she has been kissing my belly for the past few weeks telling me its a kiss for the baby, she is still doing it and i keep bursting into tears. I'm really regretting that we told people but we were so thrilled!

I know I will get over this if as i fear the worst has happened because ive done it before but right now it is just so painful!

I'm really sorry for your loss, i know how little meaning that will have to you but i am genuinly sorry and i wish you all the luck in the future

I know how you feel, I lost 2 babies in 12 months, the last m/c was last July. I was lucky and only had to wait 24 hours to get a scan but even that was hell. Both of my m/c were quite different though with both, after bleeding light brown blood for about 2 weeks I began bleeding very heavily, thick dark red blood. It was like someone had turned on a tap down there. I also suffered a lot of pain in my lower back and tummy.

I got pregnant again in Sept, but at 10 weeks I started bleeding. As you can imagine I freaked out, I couldnt believe it was happening again. Anyway, I got a scan whiched showed that everything was fine. There was no real reason for the bleeding and it stopped soon after. Although bleeding is not normal, it's so common it almost is. Dont give up hope. I hope everything works out perfectly for you.

Love, hugs and sticky baby dust.

Hey,

Just wanted to say a big thank you to you all for your comments

Since my appt with the Doc on Mon i spent the entire week in bed, hiding and crying my eyes out, sad I know.

So I had my scan today, went in totally expecting the worst and straight away this little bubble came up on screen with a tiny little fluttering inside! O/H immediatley begun crying quickly followed by me! It was so unexpected!

I'm only 6 weeks and 3 days gone, i didn't know you could even see a heartbeat this early!

Soooo happy! Cant wipe the grins off our faces!
