If you think that you might be having a mis. Def. Call your doctor or go to the local emergency room..

Signs of miscarriage: spotting, bleeding and cramps
signs of miscarriage vary, depending on when the miscarriage occurs. A miscarriage during the initial weeks of pregnancy often has few or no symptoms. The most common signs of miscarriage include vaginal spotting, bleeding and cramps. Most early miscarriages are mistaken for a heavy menstrual period.

Additional signs of miscarriage include symptoms such as low back pain and abdominal pain. While vaginal bleeding and spotting are common, women may also experience fluid leaking from the vagina, or they may pass tissue or "clotty" material through the vagina. All such symptoms are possible signs of miscarriage. Any tissue or material passed during a spontaneous abortion should be taken to your doctor for examination.

Twenty percent of women have some degree of spotting or bleeding in the first trimester. Not every woman who has spotting or bleeding will have a miscarriage. However, as spotting and bleeding are possible signs of miscarriage, these symptoms should be reported to your doctor.

Treatment during symptoms
a miscarriage may be prevented if signs are detected early enough. A "threatened" pregnancy refers to a case where signs of a potential miscarriage exist, but it has not actually occurred. Activities may be restricted during suspicious symptoms, with complete bed rest recommended when needed. Sexual activity is not advised until symptoms disappear.

There is a possibility, but if you period was a week early, nothing would have had a chance to 'build up' to miscarry. Chances are it was an odd, heavy period that also came early.

Doctors say women miscarry often and consider it their period, never knowing they were ever pregnant. So it can happen.

If you have been actively trying to become pregnant for a year, it may be time to go see a doctor and get checked out.

Good luck!
