VENT (ticker warning)

Hello ladies,

I started bleeding Wednesday and called my doctor who got me in right away to do blood test. My number is low, but they want me to come back in a week. Yesterday, was hell honestly! I cramped so bad and felt just aweful and the amount of blood was crazy. I am still bleeding pretty bad, but at least the pain has gone down. I already know in my heart what the test will say next week, but I'm trying to stay positive. I really just want a clear answer. I know that there's really no way I didn't miscarry, but I would like for the doctor to just let me know, so I can hopefully get past it all and not drag it out. No one but my huband knows what is gojng on right now and it's hard for him to really understand. I know this affects him too, but his way of dealing with it is to not discuss it. I'm not sure if I should share this with my mom, so I have a female supporter or if I should just keep it between the both of us. I certainly don't want any of this rest of our families knowing and I know it's going to be tougher being around them all because all they ever ask is when we are starting a family. Sorry for all the venting, but I thought some of you ladies would understand what I am feeling right now.

    I am so sorry you are going through this.  I have heard of women having a period while pregnant or losing a lot of blood and thinking they miscarryed when they actually did not.  However, I think the chance are greater you did.  I would tell your mom and let her know you want to keep it a secret.  My mom has been my rock through out the whole ordeal.  She called daily to check up on me mentally and physically.  My husband was good to but didn't handle it the same way.  You will need a support group around you.  So tell your mom.

    About a month after my d&c, I got a positive pregnancy test.  I told my OB, he said I was most likely pregnant again.  A week later, tests were still positive. But about a week after that, my betas were at 0.

    I would try an get into the doctor within the next few days. They can run your levels every 48 hours since your levels are supposed to double in that amount of time. if they are going down more than likely you are having a miscarriage. have you told your doctor that you are bleeding this bad? maybe try going to the ER...or tell your doctor that your worried and have them check you. I personally wouldn't wait a week to get my levels checked. Also- I think it would be great if you got a support team around you. (i.e. your mom) and just let her know your wishes on keeping it private and to yourselves. My husband is the same way, he really isnt helping me deal with it. He won't talk about it much...and he has yet held me and let me cry. I find comfort right now in my woman friends...because they know how  emotional it can be. I would def. tell your mom or someone really close to you. You cant really get "clear" answeres here. the answers are in your blood work. Good luck!!

    I completely understand what you're going through.  I had my levels checked on 4/11 and they were at 33.  Then on Fri. the 13th they were at 35.  Then Sat. morning I started cramping and bleeding really heavily.  My doctor will not see me until next Monday 4/23.  They said on the phone that since I was only about 4 1/2 wks along that I was miscarrying naturally and there's nothing that they could do until the bleeding stopped.  They're going to check my levels on Mon. to make sure they have gone back down.  The cramping stopped after a couple of days, but I'm still bleeding off and on and it's been 6 days.  I made the mistake of telling too many people when I got the BFP and now I'm dealing with a lot of disappointed people.  I would only tell my mom and husband if I had it to do again.  My mom is a big help and she wasn't as upset as I thought she'd be.  I think it would help you to talk to your mom.  I understand how you feel about your doctor.  I wish I had answers sooner too.  Best of luck to you.
