Hi,
my last period was 6th june and my husband
and I have been trying to get pregnant.
On monday night my period was 12 days late
I was having sore breasts, moodswings and
stomache cramps so I took a hpt which came
up positive but very weak. I was sooooo
happy but then literally 1 hour after the
test I went to the bathroom and saw a
small amount of blood. My husbands sister
is a nurse so we went to the hospital to
have it checked out, their pregnancy test
was also positive but weak. They gave me
buscopan for the cramps and told me to go
home and rest.
That night the cramps became severe and I
was bleeding but not like a normal period
very red and only when I went to pee.
Next morning when my husband came home
from work we went straight to private
hospital where they did blood hcg test and
pelvic ultrasound.
Results: early stages of pregnancy with
threatened miscarriage. There was no sign
of the baby on the ultrasound either. I
was told to go home and rest and if the
blood increases to go to emergency again.
Meanwhile the blood has changed to a dark
brown colour and almost completely stopped
for whole day except for 1 4-5cm clot
about 1 hour ago.
Today 2 days after first sign of blood I
went to take a second hgc serum test and
was told that if the results are compared
and the levels have increased then there
is hope for the pregnancy but if they have
decreased then I will definately miscarry.
We will know the results on saturday. My
stomache cramps have also stopped but my
husband and I did another hpt today just
to see if it would pick up the hgc levels
more than last time and it came negative,
I was soooo disappointed but I know that
the blood test is most important. Help!
The word threatened miscarriage is so
frightening!
Im so scerd I need to know if anyon else
has been in the same situation and what
the results were for them, im really
praying for a positive result but dont
want to get my hopes up. Please reply
thank you

Thank you for your reply,
well I just came home from the doctor,
results came back and I have lost/ losing
this pregnancy because the blood test
results showed the hcg hormone decresed
after 2 days to less than half it was the
first test.I know my pregnancy was still
early but I feel like someone very close
to me has died. I wanted this baby so
much and all I could keep asking the
doctor was when can we start trying
again.
I just want to say that I have read so
many womens stories here most were more
devestating than mine and im sorry for
thier loss. My prayers go out to all of
you. I wish for every woman who has been
through the pain (emotionally/physically)
of a miscarriage to go on to have another
healthy pregnacy and recieve the gift of a
beautiful baby in the near future.

I'm sorry for your loss. I recently
found out I was having a miscarriage too.
It doesn't matter how early we find out
we have lost a baby, we have suffered a
loss, and it is perfectly normal to
grieve. You have lost a family member,
so try to be easy on yourself.
I very much hope that your husband is
supportive. Mine has been an enormous
help through this, along with some very
special women on both this forum and
another one.
I am here if you need to vent, cry, ask
questions or whatever. I went through a
great deal of denial in the last week, and
am still struggling with it. Try not to
worry about what other people think, just
do what you need to do to get you through
this.
My thoughts are with you.
