? about natural m/c

wvu2000

Thank you for your responses to my question about d&c vs. natural m/c.  I had a ? for those that did end on miscarring on their own after the baby had no heatbeat.

I just started having brown spotting yesterday.  Is this how the miscarriage started for you?  I guess I am wondering what to expect b/c I am scared to death that it is going to happen at work.  I know everyone's experience is different.

Mine started with just regular spotting and alot of cramping and then progressed throughout the day and the next day.  The next night is when the actual loss happened, I was 8 weeks along.  Good luck, and hugs.

I had a blighted ovum and a natural m/c. The bleeding and cramping was preceded by brown discharge. I am glad I was able to m/c naturally. It has been a week and I have occassional spotting. Hope the info helps.

I had one that started with weeks of brown spotting and one that just suddenly started bleeding and the cramping/contractions progressed from there.  Everyone is different, but in my experience it was progressive.  good luck.

I agree w/ pp.  Everyione is different.  FWIW, mine started with light brown spotting then changed suddenly a week later to dark brown spotting.  My Dr. told me to expect that it will be like a heavy period and to wear only pads, not tampons.  I had increased cramping until it happened and then a couple days of medium bleeding after that, which was just this weekend.  I'm just spotting today with a little cramping here and there. 

I'm sorry for your loss and I hope you'll be able to get through this terrible time quickly.  I felt better prepared for the loss by my doctor telling me what exactly to expect.

I woke up Tuesday morning and when I went to the bathroom, I had a very, very tiny amount of brown on the toilet paper when I wiped.  Then I went to work thinking nothing of it and nothing happened all day.  I went to bed at 9pm and woke at 10:30 with terrible cramps, went to the bathroom and passed some clots.  I passed more that night and the following day, along with some tissue.  The heavy bleeding lasted for about 3 days then it was light and I haven't had any spotting since Saturday, although I'm terrified it's going to return.

I waited a full month after to see if I would naturally m/c and I spotted through the whole month. I even had terrible cramps and thought for sure it was going to happen but it didnt. In the end we had to do the d&c.

I know its hard right now and hopefully your body will take care of naturally. Tons of hugs to you. ?I am sorry you are going through this right now. ??

my m/c started like your's.  i started spotting on thursday, bleeding began on friday and i miscarried on saturday.  i had enough warning that i didn't worry went i went to work.  i went prepared each day, in case i started to really bleed, with a towel to sit on in the car (i didn't need it) and huge pads.
