So so sorry eleena. It's heartbreaking. I'm still scared to look at the screen straight away at scans. Take care xx

Thanks everyone.after the miscarriage is over I will have to think about when or if I want to TTC again but at the moment my head is saying no.x

[eleena2014]

Sorry to have to ask this but does know/think if the miscarriage will be easier the earlier the baby died? This one was 8 weeks they said.

[PrimalMamma]

I would imagine the miscarriage would be "easier" than if the baby had died at 12 but I don't think you can ever call a miscarriage "easy". They are rough no matter your gestation. I'm so very sorry.

Just doesn't seem real to me yet because I haven't actually miscarried.I kinda clicked a few seconds before she told me as I noticed baby wasn't moving and she said u look to be 8 weeks not 12 and I was like,that can't be right I know exactly when I conceived

I am so, so sorry Eleena It's crushing to hear that news. To be honest, the miscarriage likely won't be easy. Your uterus has continued to grow over the past four weeks (since you didn't miscarry, your body was clearly still producing hormones to sustain the pregnancy). At 12 weeks, you'll probably experience some cramping and a good deal of bleeding. You'll have clots and potentially will have what feels like milder contractions. It's different for everyone, but missed miscarriages are more difficult because they generally last longer in gestation (since they are missed). I had a missed miscarriage at 9 weeks (when baby passed) and after three weeks my body wasn't doing anything to try to end the pregnancy, so I ended up going for a D&C. My doc said that my uterus was rather large and it would have been fairly uncomfortable to miscarry naturally, if my body had permitted it. In a little surprised they didn't mention a D&C to you, only because it's been 4 weeks. But hopefully you get to do it how you want. (Sorry if that seems crass, I just wanted to let you know my experience and send my condolences). I'm again, so, so sorry for your loss

Eleena-- any miscarriage will be hard. Mine at almost 7 weeks lasted about 4 days with tons of back pain, early labor like contractions, and passing of clots. I spent several hours a day in the bath to help the pain (I'm a homebirther and both my boys were water births, so the water is where I felt most comfortable).

You can ask for Misoprostol (Cytotec) to jump start things if your body doesn't start bleeding on it's own. I had looked into this for my best friend who had a miscarriage at 12 weeks as well, and this is what I would have chosen over a D&C (which does have possible risks to future fertility). Maybe discuss all three choices with your doctor/midwife. I would also google "natural miscarriage experiences" and read other women's stories so you know what to expect. This helped me a bunch. So sorry you have to go through this. (((HUGS)))
