Anyone else waiting to m/c?

Today was rough... It's been one week since we found out and I can't wait to get this done with. How long did those of you who miscarried naturally have to wait from when you found out it wasn't 'meant to be'? I see my RE Monday and am curious if it hasn't happened by then what she'll suggest we do. Thanks

    I found out this past Friday, that I was measuring pretty far behind and no heartbeat.  I go back Thur to find to confirm.  There were a few options for us. I could wait and see if my body will terminate the pg on its own, take a pill that could make me terminate the pg with a chance of needing a d&c, or have a d&c on Friday.  I elected if I did not have a natural m/c by Friday to have a d&c with my OB recommending it.  It will be almost 5 weeks since the loss and for my health she felt the d&c would be best.  If I were to have complications this week she would do an emergency d&c.  GL and sorry for your loss.

    I'm so sorry for your loss... It took me one week from when I started bleeding to when I m/c. The waiting is so very hard, hang in there.....

    I started spotting Friday Nov 21

    I found out there was no hb on Mon Nov 24. And stopped spotting this day.

    Spotting came back heavier on Thursday Nov 27 and stayed through weekend.  By Sunday morning I was in excruciating pain.

    Monday Dec 1st I got in to see my doc and found out there was a problem with the baby being lodged and not able to pass so I had an emergency d&c that afternoon.

    Ill be honest with you-I wouldn't wait, I would just go ahead with the d&c.  I have talked to alot of ladies on here and only a few of the many who did a natural m/c were able to do it without complications or excruciating pain. 

    Trust your doc, but also listen to your gut.  If it isnt happening, then I would guess the RE will want to do a d&c.  (TMI  but by the time my d&c was done, the baby had been dead for 2 1/2 weeks and my doc said it was "badly deteriorated" and that it could have caused health problems for me at that point). Good Luck.    Keep us all posted!

    I am waiting till Friday to take the pill to help the miscarriage along. I found out last Monday that I had no growth..I was measuring 6 weeks...though I should have been more like nine. No heartbeat. No changes really..I had no growth yesterday and the sac was actually smaller. The thing is that egg sac is up far in my uterus. So I have never started spotting yet. The hormones are less this week at least.

    I am. I've been bleeding for 2 weeks and I went in for an u/s yesterday. The sac is still there and I have to go back next week for another u/s to see if there will be a hb which really would be a miracle. I just do not want to go in for another D&C....

    I am in the process. 

    I was in your position last week.  My doctor discovered that my HCG level wasn't going up correctly and then had an ultrasound which showed only a sac, no baby.  That was last Tuesday.  I was just about 6 weeks.  I had been going in every other day to check my HCG levels to make sure that my body was taking care of it, and finally yesterday it showed that my HCG levels were going down.   

    I did not start actually bleeding until this past Saturday.  (had heavy bleeding on Sunday, and the last two days have been like a normal period for me). 

    It has been the hardest time of my life.  Knowing that I was pregnant and going to miscarry, but waiting.  I am so sorry you are going through this.  (HUGS!)
