Can you miscarry without bleeding?

LLH2010

I found out I am pregnant on the 11th and since the 12th and up until yesterday I was having severe cramps and back pain. I didn't worry too much about it because I thought it was just my body adjusting to my first pregnancy. But yesterday, I started feeling different, better actually physically. I wasn't as emotional, boobs weren't as tender and I was actually eating because I wasn't queasy. Last night I had some more cramping and today I feel even more different. I am not tired at all, or having any of the symptoms I was. Like I said, I have not bled at all. Could I have miscarried or is this normal just to have varying symptoms and cramping? I am 5 weeks by the way.

I am not a Dr. but I think you are too early for a missed miscarriage if you are having those cramps for so long. How about calling your Dr. maybe you have an U/S and feel at ease again? If you have sharp pain, you should call anyway since it could be eptopic. The other thing is that symptoms come and go, so it might come back. Good luck.

I dont know a whole lot about m/c's but cramping that early is totally normal. I use to get the worse cramps. As far as your other symptoms there are days I feel great and wouldnt even know I was pregnant but they always come back,

I doubt you have miscarried. When I was 5 weeks I had a lot of cramping and lower back pain. I wasn't overly tired at all either. Now that I'm 7 weeks I have hardly any cramping and no lower back pain but I do feel a little more tired now. I think each week you can feel a little different. Just hang in there and take it one day at a time.   Good luck!

It is possible to have a missed m/c.  You might not know for sure until you see your dr. or you start bleeding.  But, really, don't try to overanalyze your symptoms.  Some days you will feel more pregnant than others.  And you're still really early; I wasn't very symptomatic until week 6.

Unfortunately it is possible, and I know this from experience.

 My last pregnancy I miscarried early on (around 5 weeks) and I had really bad cramping, but no bleeding or spotting. I went to the ER to rule out ectopic. They did some bloodwork and I knew things were grim when my HCG was lower than it had been when I had it checked a few days prior.

 I never actually started to bleed until almost a week later. My OB said that sometimes it just takes the body a while to realize that you're no longer pregnant.

I hope that all you're having is some growing pains, and that everything is okay with your little one.

I recommend you call your doctor right away.

I've had three mc and never bleed. The cramping, etc. could be perfectly normal... it could also, I'm sorry to say, be a sign that something isn't right.

And fwiw - don't give too much weight to your symptoms. I had nausea, sore boobs, etc. long after my mc. It takes a while for hormones to return back to normal so what you're experiencing could very well be just the normal ebb and flow of pregnancy symptoms.

GL and I wish you all the best.

5 weeks is pretty early to have a lot of symptoms.  A lot of women don't get symptoms until 6-7 weeks.  I'm 7 weeks and don't have consistent symptoms.

I am 4w3d and have been having AWFUL cramps. I called the doctor, and they had me do blood work and an US. Today, I went back for more blood work to make sure my HCG levels have gone up.

I have heard it go both ways... but I would call your doctor just to check.

Hang in there! Believe me, I know this is scary. I am just sitting here staring at the phone.

I had the worst, most painful cramps of my life for the first month. We did a couple u/s and even saw a hb. Everything seems to be going well. Lots of things can cause cramps, even unrelated to the pregnancy (ex. UTI). Cramping alone isnt necessarily a bad sign.

Yes, it is possible.

But at 5 weeks, you are too early to be worrying about no symptoms.

i had all preg symptoms after my u/s at 6w. at my 9w u/s there was no heartbeat, and i had lost the baby about 6w3d and still had m/s, breast soreness etc. so unfortunately its very possible much to my surprise. i didnt have any cramps, bleeding, or spotting.

I went to my OB today. My ultrasound didn't show anything really she said she saw what could be a sac, that's it. So my doc took a lot of blood and I have to go back Monday for more. Basically he said it's a wait and see type thing. It could be nothing, it could be a miscarriage, or it could be a tubal pregnancy. Ugh.
