Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Introduction and just started bleeding

I had a molar pregnancy at the age of 20. I had a D&C and had ended up being in the hospital for over a week due to all my blood loss and I'm anemic. 

I am now 28 and my husband and I are trying to have a family. Thursday I found out that at 7w5d that all I have was a gestational sack with no fetal pole (pregnancy pole). I have a D7C scheduled next Friday morning but I have just found a little blood. I think my body may be getting rid of it naturally which was the other option my dr provided. What happens when my body takes care of it naturally? What are the symptoms? How long do I bleed and know when its done? Is there any info I can find online on what my body is going to go through? How long do I wait before I start trying again? 

Re: Introduction and just started bleeding

  • I am so sorry for your loss. I think what you're referring to is a "natural" miscarriage. There is info on these boards especially in the "are you new? Read this" links at the top of this board and the one simply titled "loss".
    Everyone's experience with miscarriage is different so it's hard to say how long you will bleed and what your body might go through.
    As far as waiting to try again, most doctors say 1-2 cycles.
    Sending love and prayers for you and your husband.

  • Very, very sorry for your loss.  As PP have said, every woman is different.  The night before my 8 week ultrasound I started bleeding lightly.  At the u/s we discovered baby had stopped growing at 6w1d.  I spotted lightly all week starting that day, and on the following Sunday had a complete natural miscarriage.  I can tell you it was painful but not unbearable, more than a bad period, lasted 6-7 hours, and then the pain was done.  The only advice I can give is to try and stay local to somewhere you're comfortable in case it starts suddenly as mine did, try and stay hydrated, take pain reliever.  The rule of thumb is if you bleed through more than a pad an hour you should go to the ER.  Again, everyone is different, but that was my experience.  Take care of yourself!
