Miscarry :(

Ok I found out from my doctor last week
that my baby isn't going to make it. I
took it so hard!! Well that was a week
ago and nothing has happened. She told
me that if by three weeks nothing still
hasn't happened that I have to make
another appointment. So i'm curious, how
long does this usually take and is it just
going to happen or happen little by
little??
-thanks

She said that my hormone levels would not
go up ( I was on meds and doing blood
tests), and they measured my baby at 5
weeks almost 6 and could not find a heart
beat.

Almost a yr ago exactly (oct 6, 2005) I
miscarried. I found out a wk before that,
that I was pregnant. So I made an
appointment and I had no idea how far
along I was. To find out, my doctor gave
me an ultrasound. My baby was measuring 6
weeks and they said it didn't have a
heartbeat so they gave me these pills to
stick in "there" to make me cramp and get
everything out.

Sorry to hear about that. I dont really
know what to say. But if nothing does
happen and you have to go back to the doc,
I would definatly request an ultrasound!!!

Do you think that hormone level would
really effect it??
Cus I feel that my baby really is still
alive.

Okat that is messed up that they gave you
pills to abort the fetus at 6 weeks.
My doctor didnt get a heart beat until 12
weeks and he said it is extremely rare to
get a heartbeat before then.

I think she meant finding the heartbeat by
ultrasound, which at 6 weeks should be
visible. I agree though that it seems
like they were a little hasty about the
pills. I would've demanded another
ultrasound a week or so later to see if
there had been any changes. Maybe she
just wasn't as far along as she thought.

yeah, it wasn't visible on the ultrasound
at 6 wks. They told me there was nothing
else I could do and that I needed to take
those pills b/c it wasn't healthy to keep
it in there. I had just turned 16, so
it's not like I knew what to do. I just
wanted the situation to be over so I
listened to my doctor.

I miscarried at about 5wks this past
summer.
I had an ultrasound when .I was supposed
to
be 6wks, but was only measuring 5wks.
I bled for a little over a week,
&passed
everything through about 6 days into my
bleeding.
&.Yeah, at 6wks, a heartbeat should
be
visible via ultrasound. I had an
ultrasound
at 6wks exactly with this pregnancy,
&the
heartbeat was chuggin' away. At 10wks,
.I heard the heartbeat via doppler.

Wr17 i'm sorry to hear that. I understand
that you were only young and I don't want
to make you feel bad about it but I would
of demanded a 2nd ultrasound a week or so
later. With my 1st ultrasound they
couldn't see a heartbeat so they got me to
come back a week later and there it was.
U might not of been 6 weeks- only 5...

The doctor gave me pills to try and raise
my hormone level.
Oh and when you bleed, what color is it
usually?
My body is letting out this brown
stuff..........
