I have been reading several posts, this board has helped me tremendously. I lost my baby at 10wks and 2 days. My due date was November 18, 2012. During my first appointment I had a feeling something was not right. My first u/s was at 8 wks, during the u/s we only saw the yolk sac, my ob said I was not 8 wks, more like 6 wks. He said I could have ovulated later, but I knew this was not true and I knew when my lmp was. When I left the ob, I did not feel right, deep down I knew something was wrong. The next week, I went in for another u/s and we saw a fetal pole and a second sac, the doc just told me that the second sac could be a vanishing twin. On April 21, I started bleeding after intercourse and went to the ER. The doctor performed an u/s and pelvic exam and told me everything was ok, he saw one yolk sac. On Monday, April 23, I started bleeding again, I did not need a pad, just bled when I wiped. I had cramps, but not bad cramps. The next day I decided to go to the ER, because I was still bleeding. While at the ER I started bleeding heavy and clotting. I lost the baby at the hospital in the bathroom. I have never seen so much blood before in my life. It was horrible. The ER doctor told me that I had probably lost the baby. This was the worst day for me. My husband was so excited about our little one, and it all ended in the hospital bathroom. I believe in God and I know he does not make any mistakes. I am just so thankful for this board. It has really helped me to deal with my loss. I know that I am not alone. Tomorrow will be a week since I lost my little one. I really do hope and we can concieve again. I am trying to stay positive.

Baby BOY!
I am so so sorry for your loss ((((((hugs)))))))
My story is very similar to yours - I went in for my 8 week u/s, doc told me I was more like 6 weeks. One thing I've learned is that I know my body better than anyone else, and to trust my instincts. I knew the doctor was wrong, I knew that something wasn't going right. A few days later I too, lost my baby in the ER bathroom. I still think about that moment, and how upset I am that it had to happen in a public bathroom, of all places.
Again, I am so sorry. We're all here for you.
I feel the same way, I know my body and I knew something was not right. I feel you losing my baby in the public restroom was the worst thing. We are going to try again in a few months and I plan to pay close attention to my body and ask several or maybe a thousand questions. I am so sorry for your loss. This board has been very helpful. I am praying that we can all have healthy happy babies in the future.

Sending you hugs through cyberspace!
That sounds like such a traumatic and sad experience, and I'm so sorry you had to go through it. My miscarriage also brought me to the ER, but I had surgery and a D&C, so I didn't see much of the blood.
Just like you said about God not making mistakes, I keep telling myself that Mother Nature knows what She's doing. That doesn't make it any easier, though. We were all dreaming of the amazing things we would do as a family, and then had that taken away. I'm sure it will take awhile.
More hugs
