Waiting to miscarriage... Went for a sono because I had some early spotting. I was told that the gestational sac appeared to have an irregular shape and that I would likely miscarriage. I am only 5 or 6 weeks (3-4 in terms of how long ago we conceived). So now I just sit and wait until my follow-up appointment next week. Very anxious. Anyone else go through something similar?

yup. me. they told me exactly the same thing, that i would miscarry because the gestational sac was an odd shape and they couldn't see the 'fetal pole' -- this was probably at 5 or 6 weeks. same as you. they sent me home and i felt icky. a week later a friend got me in to see her doc, and another ultrasound showed a heartbeat! the rest is history. DD is nearly 2 now. i don't want to raise your expectations but don't give up hope until it's really over! [ Reply | More

So stressful. Did you have any early spotting? I have to say that I dont feel nautiated any more (not a good sign). This is so upsetting. I miscarried in Nov,and only now recovered from the D&C. Thanks for sharing. [ Reply | More

a tiny bit. it was SUPER stressful and horrible. and they were so matter of fact about it, as in: you will miscarry, just go home and wait. huh? but then it didn't happen. so sorry you've had one before. once you start talking about it it's amazing how many people have had them too. [ Reply | More

If I am going to miscarry, I do hope that I do not need another D&C, and it happens naturally. It took me 8M to recover from the D&C. It is a horrible waiting period. [ Reply | More

Yes. this happened to me...was eventually ruled an ectopic and I had mexothrexate and miscarried a week or so later. Best of luck. The waiting is awful. [ Reply | More

I've since had 2 DCs. Methotrexate is an injection that stops cell growth and starts a miscarriage. [ Reply | More

Thanks. I'm all good now. Are you seeing an RE, by chance? They're better at this stuff than OBs. [ Reply | More
