Not Sure If Im Having a Miscarriage
Posted: 05-25-05 19:05pm

Hi! This is my first time getting pregnant so im still stumbling on what to do and what not to do during pregnancy. My question is, im experiencing severe headache for 3 days now and as far as I know it is normal to have it. But on the third day I had a fever (100 f) incorporated with a headache. I have no bleeding or spotting so far and I haven't felt any abdominal pains. Am I having a symptom of miscarriage?

From what i've heard, if there's no blood that's a really good sign. Plus no pains or cramping... Even better. Have you called your doctor yet though? It's really best to get their feedback as they're the experts. Don't feel bad or embarrassed to call and ask for help. That's what you pay them for. ;) let me know what happens.

Thanks! I haven't called my doctor yet. I will call them tom asap. As for pains, I forgot to tell you, i'm also experiencing lower back pains. I am only 13 weeks and it's kind of early to experience this. Am I right? So I took tylenol (with permission from my obgyn). I am really worried and maybe getting paranoid by now of what i'm experiencing. My husband is away for a business trip and he's coming back tomorrow. So i'm all alone agonizing the pain and suffering of being pregnant.
And oh another question, I gained 3 lbs. Since my last week's monthly appointment. Is that normal or unusual? Thanks again.

I would think if there is no blood, you are not having a misc. Just try to take it easy!

I have experienced a miscarriage, and the pain is harsh. If there is no bleeding or abdominal cramping then you are not going to have a miscarriage. Go get checked by your doctor.

Ya it doesn't sound like a miscarriage. Headaches are completely normal, the fever could be assocaited with the headache. If you arw having no bleeding or cramping then I don';t think it's a miscarriage.

I got my first migraine being pregnant. It's not fun but it's normal. I have 3 weeks before my due date and haven't had a headache in at least 4 months.

i have to agree, as long as you aren't spotting or passing any matter, you should be just fine.

And if its your first time being pregnant, your body is most likely just trying to adjust ;]
