Threatened Miscarriage at 9 weeks or spotting and cramping?

Either I am in the middle of a threatened miscarriage or already in the process of losing my pregnancy.

This is my third pregnancy. My symptoms haven’t been like my last two, as every pregnancy is different. Well out of the blue, today, well yesterday (12 hours ago) .. 2 pm on the 18th, well I went to the bathroom, and noticed brown discharge …. and some bright red blood.

I freaked out, and finished up and noticed there was bright red blood and some tissue/clot on the toilet paper.

I went in to the ER, cause it was bleeding, and I filled about half a pad. By the time I was seen the bright red, faded to light brown and light red blood and lots of liquidy discharge. I also had extreme cramping start, that felt like I was in early labor.

It started just in my lower abdomen, then worked its way to my back, and now thighs, over a 12 hour period.

They did … pelvic, UA, HCG blood, and U/S.

Pelvic, showed i had a very sensitive and tender cervix and uterus AND my cervix is closed though, and no active bleeding from cervix) UA no ifections (bladder, UTI), HCG – they didn’t tell me the levels I will find out at my appointment next Thursday. and the U/S …

they had trouble finding a heartbeat …. he didn’t say he didn’t find one, but he didn’t say he did … he ALSO didn’t say they baby is wiggling around like crazy …. you wanna see … he said do you want to see, the sac.

There was a yolk sac, and gest sac. No visible heartbeat …. I didn’t see baby moving when I looked at screen. i even asked if it was dead before i looked. I don’t want to get my hopes up ….

the doctor said, i may not be as far along as dates proved ( + test on july 1st, HPT) (visiible pregnancy at 2100 levels 2 weeks later) … so by this i am sure my due date is right on, as 8 days before my + HPT i had a – blood test!

well i have had even more spotting and more bright red blood clots come out (when I am up and walking around, not when i am resting and lying down) … my cramping has gotten even worse, but I am just waiting it out, I dont want to go back to ER for nothing!!!

What do you think??? Any thoughts are welcome and much appreciated! I just hate having to wait a week, which is what they told me that I had to wait!!!!

Morning sickness at 9 weeks?

I’ve felt nauseous off and on since about 6 weeks, but I’ve only started throwing up today. I thought I was getting away easy with the morning sickness (lol) – has this happened to anyone else? Should I be worried?

has a miscarriage 9 weeks ago. no d&c. have a positive pregnancy test now. could it be from the miscarriage?

I had a miscarriage 9 weeks ago. I never got a D&C done. The Dr. only checked my levels one time, and that was it. I just took a positive test and was wondering if it could be related to the miscarriage.
