Weird Miscarriage

snlemon · #1 January 31st, 2008, 11:47 AM

So let me explain this logically:

1. I had bleeding that my ob/gyn is saying was a miscarriage on Friday Jan. 11. It was very light for one day and the spotting for a couple days after, then stopped. No cramps or clots. (I usually get both for AF)
2. On Tuesday Jan. 15 I got a light positive on a HPT, which my ob attributes to declining hcg.
3. On Friday Jan. 18 I had blood taken, which came back at a level of 2 for hcg. So not pregnant.
4. On that weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday time) I had EWCM and what felt like O pain which at the time I told myself to remember in case I wasn't pregnant that I was ovulating. So that would have been 1 week after a miscarriage.
5. On Saturday Jan. 26 I had some more light spotting, my mom suggested it was remaning leftovers of miscarriage, bbs were also very sore for the first time in my life. Spotting continued into Sunday then stopped.
6. My temps where lower right after my miscarriage than they are now.

I know I sound really just gone crazy but maybe you guys could examine my chart and help me figure this out. I just don't really know how to make any sense of all this. Nothing really adds up well, it's like my body is on it's period, pregnant and miscarrying all at the same time...like it can't pick what it wants to do.
I don't even know if I think I have had a miscarriage. It was so light! My ob said it could have mostly absorbed into my body.

How far along were you?

I do know that after a m/c ANYTHING can seem to happen with your body. You may have bleeding or spotting, your period may come soon or late. Cramps could be worse or not there at all.

Sorry I could not be of more help

Hi, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss!!!

I ditto what Jenn said, the body doesn't know what it wants to do following a m/c. Your hCG levels being at 2 is a good thing, meaning the m/c has finished and you're able to ovulate and have a period again.

Sorry for not being of more help, I hope someone else can also help you!

So did you have +HPT before Jan 11th? Is that why your Dr. said it was a miscarriage? And all of your bleeding has all been mostly spottting? I'm not expert, but I believe there would be more than just spotting. Did you DTD during your O time that weekend? Have you taken anymore HPTs?Hm, this is a hard scenario! I'll continue to try and put the pieces together, but I hope you can get some answers!

Thanks so much for helping!!! It is so confusing for me!!

Okay, I didn't get A bfp until after (about 4 days) Jan. 11 (the doctor said it was prb from declining hcg levels showing on a sensitive test). And I had gotten like 3 negatives and 2 positives out of that week before I had my blood drawn.

All of my bleeding has been spotting. The only time it wasn't spotting was on Jan.11 when it was just very light, like my period had begun then stopped right away.

We did BD during O time (we thought we were prg, he did pull out but mosly an afterthough/habit)

I have not touched a HPT since my bloodwork came back. I am burned on them

Well it sounds to me like you *might* have had a chemical pregnancy. But the thing that throws me off is that you were only spotting. Now I don't know too much about PCOS, but looking at your chart when you do get your periods it looks like they aren't just light bleeding/spotting. Sorry I'm not much help! And if it were me I'd probably just take a pregnancy test to see if anything came about from that weekend! HUGS and good luck!

Thanks!
Yea, my periods are always super super heavy with really bad cramps the first two days. So this spotting it throwing me for a loop.
I guess I will wait awhile and test or something.

wow that is really confusing. I don't understand why you would have had just light spotting either, especially if your periods are usually really heavy. I looked at your chart but unfortunately, don't really have anything useful to add. I hope you get some answers soon too.

to the board..... even if it's just for one post

I can't see the link to your chart.

I had a chemical PG about two months ago. I ALWAYS have horrid AF's. When I m/c the Chemical PG it was VERY light and short. The next cycle was almost normal and the one after that was so bad I almost went to the ER. My doctor said the really really bad one was most likely due to the m/c. So I guess what I am saying is IF it was a chemical PG.... be prepared for possibly a really bad AF in the next couple months. TMI but I was passing tissue and HUGE clots. The blood was also clotty and watery bright red at the same time.

About the HPT's.... I have no idea. I am hoping you are PG again and that might be why it seems so confusing.....

LOTS of

I definitely don't know the answers to your situation..but I thought it might help to know that you are not alone. We m/c on Jan.16 and I think I ovulated on the 27th, which would have been pretty early...but we BDed anyway...we couldn't help it. I have odd symptoms also, but I guess we will both have to wait and test. I can't wait to hear what you find out.
