Firstly I just want to thank everyone here for how much support I received after finding out that I was miscarrying last week. It was so much appreciated! You all said all the right things and were so helpful! Also you ladies gave me a lot to think about and a lot of encouragement.
So in light of this, I did want to share with you that I went back to the doc today to do a follow up, to see how I was doing with everything, and they found a fetus with a heartbeat. Not sure how, since there was nothing in the sac last week. But we are very much in shock.
I've never heard of this happening before. But I just wanted to thank you for your support and also share some good news. :-)

BFP #2: 1.30.12 - missed m/c found on 2.27.12 - D&C 3.1.12 @8w
Yes I had some light bleeding then spotting and then passed some clots (sorry if TMI). I don't know about levels, for as far as I know, they didn't check them. Once he did the ultrasound last week, he decided there was no need for bloodwork. It looked like a pretty done deal. He didn't even turn on the screen for me to see the ultrasound when I came in this week.
We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.

Thanks!! I hope I never have to be here again either, but I know that if I do, that this is a supportive place. I will keep you ladies in my T&P and hope that you are blessed in the same way you all blessed me, and even more so.

Well I am happy for you! I can say going through a miscarriage has been the single hardest thing I've ever experienced and I'm happy that you had a happy ending in this. Good luck to you!
PS: I had the same DD as you
Congrats. But seriously THIS. After two loses, I really can't understand the medical reasoning of your doctor. I cannot fathom a properly diagnosed misciarrage with an actual viable pregnancy.something seriously doesn't add up here. As in, lawsuit worthy doesn't add up. Many women would have had a d&c before this point. I've never met you but am furious this could happen with your doctor. That is NOT a normal mistake. If I were you I'd be getting medical records and calling a lawyer.
