I don't even know how to discuss this because it's sounds ludacris to begin with but here I go;

When my loss first started to happen on July 1st we went to the ER and saw a very small gest. sac. Perfectly normal for the time frame. But I was bleeding very very heavily. The following day, I woke up to the worst back cramps I ever had. Heavy bleeding, clots, etc. I went on the following Tuesday (because the office was closed for the 4th) and my beta's were drawn, they had dropped, the MW saw my bleeding and "confirmed" the M/C.

That Friday I went back to the Dr. for a F/U and my beta's were drawn. To everyone's suprise, my beta's doubled. However that night I'm relatively sure I passed the fetus. Not to cause nightmares for everyone, but I distinctly could make out the baby. It didn't look like a mini baby but more like the fetus pictures in the books. A little shrimp the shape of a lima bean. It had "nubs" for an arm and distinctly two eyes on each side. I remember wanting to be so hopeful for the songogram that following Monday I dismissed it, although I knew what I held.

That Monday I had the sonogram (the 11th). The sac had grown considerably, but there was no heartbeat. A beta later confirmed everyone's fears. I started Misoprostol the following day. It did nothing. I had to take another round that Wednesday. I started getting cramps but nothing as bad as the Sunday two weeks prior. I did pass what I believe was the sac. It's pretty hard to mistake that feeling :X

I thought all was over, I stopped bleeding/spotting around the 25th of July. I started charting and picking up the pieces of my life. Yesterday was a bad day as you can see from yesterday's posts....

Well it got much worse. I haven't had any spotting or bleeding, just a lot of EW CM that is tinged with old blood here and there. So last night I go to the bathroom, mind you I had no cramps, nothing and when I wiped there was the same traumatizing "lima bean." Only this time it was gray, as you can tell it had been deteriorating It had the same make up, the two eyes, the "shrimp like," appearance and only 1 "nub." DH looked at this one, he refused the first time. We cried for a good hour in the bathroom. I had some light red bleeding for about 20 minutes after but then it stopped.

Today I have cramps pretty bad. I've had the back pain too. No bleeding, just some brown spotting. With AF I get really bad leg pains in my upper thighs. I have that as well. It couldn't possibly be AF this soon could it?

I know I should call my doctor but I'm not sure what is going on? Did I loose twins? Both "beans" looked exactly the same, just weeks apart.

I would call your Dr in the morning. If you are still having cramps and pain you could be getting an infection.

Would an infection come on this quick? Doesn't it take some time? I know I've been reading other woman's stories about Natural M/C's and they sometimes take months? I'll definitely call tomorrow!

I thought with infection there were other signs like fever, smell (sorry I hate even typing that), and sharp pains? I'm not bleeding but I am having the brown spotting that is very similar to the beginning of AF.

Either way I would call your doctor. If you were far along enough to see what you did I would suggest an antibiotic to be on the safe side.

((millions of hugs)) I am so sorry you are going through this.

I would call because it sounds like you think something is not right so better to be safe than sorry.

Im sorry you have to keep dealing with this.

I would say that you should contact your dr. I have no other advice but I want to say how sorry I am that you are still dealing with all of this. I can't imagine the pain of all of this being dragged out and not being able to move on.

So sorry again and I hope that you have some resolutions soon and can find some peace...

A million thanks to you all....I'm just so exhausted emotionally. I have no idea whats happening and seeing that last night was the icing on the cake...

I'll call in the AM for sure, i'm just scared and don't know what to think. I guess the only "positive" is that my HPT is negative as of yesterday, which I would think would mean that it's complete? I wish they had better medical information out there since it's unfortunately so common but yet I feel so confused!

I'll keep everyone posted.

I would def get checked out. Otherwise, you will always wonder and you want to make sure nothing serious (like an infection) is happening.

So sorry you are going through all of this.

What a nightmare! I'm so sorry you're going through this. I hope your doctor can shed some light on what happened, and that there is nothing serious going on with you physically. Keep us posted.

I am sorry you are going through this. I agree with the other ladies about calling your doctor. I got a bad infection from my first d&c and ended up in the hospital. I got the infection just couple of days after my surgery.

Aww hun.. I'm so sorry.

Yes, definitely get checked out. It could be the beginnings of an infection. As traumatized as you are, getting an infection on top of everything else wouldn't help that. I passed my angel naturally, but never saw my angel.
