Miscarriage No Bleeding, No Cramps, No Problems Posted: 04-01-04 04:54am
I'm 12 weeks pregnant and I had my first
spotting on 3/29 when I went to the o.B.
She told me that she did not hear a heart
beat and that she assumed that the baby
had died in my 9th week. I was scared
and very much confused due to I did not
have any problems and my stomach was
growing bigger. I had a second opinion.
I went to a local hospital I was told to
give blood in which that came back very
high I was also told that the baby was
fine. I had a second u/s done I was
again told that the child had died. I'm
confused one is telling me that everything
is ok then the other is telling me it's
not. My doctor wants me to do a d &
c and i'm scared especially since this is
my first. What should I do if anyone
could help.

I am not sure what to say. I hope
everything goes ok. I don't think that
there is any advice on how to not worry.
Everyone worries during their pregnancy,
especially their first. I have never
heard though of a miscariage without
bleeding. I have many friends who have
miscarriaged and they said there was alot
of bleeding and pain. I know that with
my pregnancy they didn't listen to a
heartbeat until 4-6 months. Apparently
it's hard to hear if you are earlier. So
your doctor could've missed it since it is
harder to hear that early. What is a d
& c? Let me know how everything
turns out.

D&c is a procedure which is perform
mostly in a hospital where the doctor will
scrape your uterius removing the fetus.
..... When your doctor could not hear
your baby heartbeat did they suggest that
your baby was dead. What was their
response to you concerning your child????

The doctor never even listend to the
heartbeat into further in my pregnany.
If you've been told that your baby had
died and then was told that he/she was
alive then i'd go to another doctor and
make sure. I have heard that when they
are that young that there hearbeat is
faint and not easy to hear. The only
thing that makes me question whether or
not the doctor is right is that you were
told by another person that he/she was
alive. I hope everything turns out ok.
Let me know.

I did some research and go to
babycenter.Com it tells you week by week
development on your baby. Check out
week 18 of pregnancy. It states that
with the help of a special stethoscope you
can hear the heartbeat. If your only 12
weeks and you doctor is saying your baby
is dead because their is no hearbeat
switch doctors. And do not go throught
he d & c procedure. Your baby is
most likely alive. It sounds like your
doctor is after the money or has clue what
he/she is talking about and shouldnt be in
the profession. I would also talk to a
lawyer and sue this doctor, because every
doctor knows that you cant hear a
heartbeat at 12 weeks old, it's not
possible. Also when a baby dies your
body will expel the fetus. I've spoke to
many people on this and I have been really
worried about you. Let me know what
happens.

Hello well first off all I want to wish
you the best. Listen my friend at 11.6
weeks went for her first ultrasound, was
told yesterday the same thing you were the
doctors could not find a heart beat. They
told her the baby was dead. She went to
get a second opinion and first they told
her that it might me to early to hear the
heart beat. Theyn another one came and
told her it was the begining of a
misscarige. There was no bleeding at all
and she was feeling perfectly fine. Today
she went to have the baby removed. I
regret not telling her to get a 3rd
opinion. What if it was to early.. You
know just make you you check around. Take
care of yourself I wish you the best.

What did happen? I have friends who have
"miscarried" and had not blood or pain.
But, I don't know if it is technically
"miscarrying" or not. The baby died and
then they actually had to induce labor and
give birth.
I have another friend who miscarried
really early on in the pregnancy (she did
not even know she was pregnant) and she
had severe cramps and lots of blood.
I hope your baby was o.K, but I am
assuming that it was not as we have not
heard from you. I wish you the best and
hope you are o.K. I am very sorry.
