How can itell if the fetus has passed because of a miscarriage?

how far along are you? If you are several weeks, most of the time you can't ever tell unless you are cramping, and passing clots. That is the way it was when I had my miscarriages at only 9weeks.

Should you see a doctor during or after a miscarriage?

It's adviseable to seek medical advice when you think you are going through a miscarriage for an ultrasound to detect any problems and to check for infections. If your miscarriage is quite early, less than six weeks, and you feel all right there is probably no need to see a doctor Any problems though (for example: ongoing pain, bleeding, fever) you do need to get checked.

Can you take a pregnancy test if you think you are miscarrying?

Would you really want to put yourself though that? If your expected period is here, even if you were pregnant, it would be called a chemical pregnancy. You would have had a very early miscarriage because of problems with the fetus.

Personally, I wouldn't want to know.

Why is brown blood coming out when regular menstruation should occur?

Nobody ever told me either. I am 27 years old now and I ask the docter years ago after getting pregnant. The blood is brown because it is old blood. There is nothing wrong with you is the answer i got. they say sometimes it just happens if you notice after you get a good flow going its not brown anymore either. And sometimes you may pass blood clots also b/c your body has to get rid of that inner lining BUT i freaked. Just ask your doctor its completely confidential and 100% private.

Did you have a miscarriage if you were spotting brown 8 days before your period and then and you got an extremely heavy period with clotting?

It does sound as though you might have had a miscarriage. If the bleeding has now stopped and you feel otherwise well with no fever you will probably never know for sure. If the bleeding is still heavy and/or you feel ill GO TO THE DOCTOR!!!

What to do after a positive pregnancy test?

Your doctor will advise you on what to do next.

Can you get pregnant 2 weeks after natural miscarriage?

Yes it is, providing you are ovulating again. I conceived in the cycle after a miscarriage... effectively about 15 days afterwards. I am now seven weeks pregnant and so far things are going well. It's always worth seeing a doctor to make sure your body has recovered properly though.

Yes you can. It is not dangerous.

Yes. Many women miscarriage and go onto healthy babies. Though research has been conducted and not entirely understood still it seems women mainly miscarriage only girls or only boys varying from person to person. I have know women who only miscarried boys and some only girls. With a supportive partner you will be fine. ITS NOT YOUR FAULT.

yes. my mother had a miscarriage and became pregnant with me 3 days later.

What does an embryo look like at 3 weeks?

I'm not quite sure. Actually... I was looking for a similar question... But from what I've experienced with mine, you bleed. That seems to be the popular answer. Except... I saw... my miscarriaged baby. So I guess if you've seen it... you basically had one.

What does the fetus look like after a miscarriage?

If you have a miscarriage can you tell the gender of the baby?

Well it honestly depends on how far along you are usually though you can

Your doctor told you your HCG levels are 41000 how far along are you?

The American Pregnancy Association recommends that hCG level not be used to date a pregnancy because the numbers can vary widely. But they also include guidelines on their website that place your level at 5 to 6 weeks. Please visit their site at:

What causes miscarriage at 5 months?

Miscarriage in the first trimester is usually due to something wrong with the fetus so Mother Nature stops it. Later in the pregnancy it can be a virus and many other things. Then there's induced miscarriage aka abortion where you terminate the pregnancy using medicine or surgery. Then there's serious drug use, excessive drinking, physical violence, accidents etc. The only ones safe for the woman are the first 2, natural miscarriage and abortion.

How do you calculate the due date if you got pregnant after the miscarriage?

Don't forget that any calculated due date is only an approximation. 50% of babies are born within one week either side of the calculated date, 50% outside that limit.

What does cause a miscarriage at 26 weeks?

Miscarriages that occurs in the first trimester is usually due to something wrong with the fetus and in week 6 the heart starts to beat regularly. That could be one reason if there was something wrong with it but the miscarriage could've happened earlier but just hadn't come out yet.

Why do you have cramps even when you are not bleeding?

Hi, this could be serious. It is worth discussing with your doctor. Questions to consider: do any women in your family have a history of female reproductive problems or diseases? Perhaps discuss this with any sisters or your mother if possible. Some times families with very painful menstruation have a condition known as endometriosis. Anyway, by talking to a doctor you can have piece of mind that your body is healthy. Meanwhile, make sure you are properly hydrated with water before exercise to help prevent muscle cramping. Be mindful of your uterine pain and chart it as it happens. This might help you notice any patterns that will also help when talking with a doctor.tl;dr - talk to a doctor; drink lots of water before exercise.peace~

I am 7 weeks pregnant and the pregnancy signs has disappeared and i have been spotting slimmy brown discharge for 11 days?

Go straight to the Early Pregnancy Unit at your local hospital or to A&E, so they can check it is all ok, I had this and misscarried but it is not neccessarily the same thing as it could be your body getting used to the pregnancy and the muscles stretching as your baby grows.. good luck (:

Is it painful during the first few weeks of pregnancy after a miscarriage?

Can fetus learn or think?

Learn? No.

Think? It's called a fetus up to week 38 so in the end it can think but it's not something one will remember. Consciously we don't start to remember until we are around 2.

What do you experience during a miscarriage?

I am a 22 year old. I am the "rh factor" I have A- blood type and I need the Rhogam injection while pregnant and after an abortion, miscarriage, etc. I have had one abortion in December 2005. I miscarried my second in June 2006. I am sharing my experience with women because I feel it's important for us to share these types of experiences. Experiencing a miscarriage can be an extremely scary, emotional, stressful time. This is my miscarriage story: I never felt pregnant through this entire pregnancy. My first pregnancy, I felt pregnancy symptoms VERY STRONGLY! ie. morning sickness, tender breasts, etc. (DAYS OF SPOTTING/BLEEDING) (DAY 1) - I was 6 weeks pregnant when I began to spot. This happened just before going to bed after going to the bathroom when I wiped. This was a brown mucus type of "old blood" and there was very little of it. (DAY 2) - I didn't think much of the spotting until the next morning when the spotting continued and was getting to be more like my period became a red blood and the amount increased. (DAY 3) - I went to the emergency room. At this point, I was feeling the stress, fear of loss, and was anxious to find out what was happening. I was also very nervous. I was finally examined by a doctor approximately 6 hours after I had registered in the ER. She explained that bleeding while pregnant is a very common thing and 50% of women that come in have no need for concern they will carry and deliver a healthy baby. However, not every woman is so luckily, some indeed will miscarry. There is nothing they can do to prevent the miscarriage from occuring. She got an order for blood work to check my blood type and levels and an ultrasound for the next day. The blood work showed A- and I got a shot of Rhogam. The levels appeared to be normal (I think 1500 hcg). (DAY 4) - 6.3 weeks. I went for my ultrasound (regular and transvaginal). They found everything to be in FANTASTIC shape (baby was a good size everything looked "right". I saw the baby's heartbeat (133bpm). Everything was where it was supposed to be. Except they couldn't see the cause of bleeding. The person preforming the ultrasound told me to watch things and if they get worse to go the the ER A.S.A.P. I then went to the ER to speak with the doctor about the results. She said that the result looked good. The baby was alive, good size, good heartbeat. But she did say that the risk of miscarriage was still there. She also said that no physical activity would affect the pregnancy, so I didn't need bed rest. I was to keep doing what I was doing. (DAY 5 to 10) - I continued to bleed everyday. It bled heavier. The colour was bright red and near day 9-10 I experienced some mid-sized clots (Canadian dime sized) cramping began around day 6-10 and got severe at times. The pain was never exruiating. (DAY 11) - I go back to the ER because of the heavy bleeding and now clots. I get blood work done and urine sample. I see a doctor. She examines my cervix which appeared closed. She gets the results of the blood work. My hcg dropped to 25. She told me that I indeed had been experiencing a miscarriage. I admit that deep in my heart I already knew so the news didn't come as a shock. My body was telling me prior to the baby's heartbeat stopping by not showing me any of the symptoms I had during my first pregnancy. She gave me the number of a ob to call if the bleeding got worse ("filling a pad an hour"). She said it's normal to bleed for around two weeks. They didn't do an ultrasound this time. They just went with the blood levels. Since this was an early pregnancy she said that I would pass things naturally. So no D&C would be required, unless I experienced complications (heavier bleeding). As well, since I already received the rhogam injection at 6.3 weeks, even though I miscarried I didn't need another because it is effective for 12 weeks (this was according to my DR.) (DAY 12) - The bleeding has slowed down considerably and I am back to spotting again. I am not even filling a pad today. Cramps are still present I wish all of you the very best. A.B. (JULY 1st, 2006)
