I have been hearing stories and it seems it could be 6 weeks before all tissue is expelled. I was hoping to get back in the TTC saddle right away! > > Beth Beth, My miscarriage was a lot like yours. I went in to the emergency room at almost 11 weeks because I had normal bleeding like I had just started my period. They did the ultrasound and the baby measured 8 wks 2 days and no heartbeat. We saw the heartbeat at 7 wks 2 days so I wondered what could have went wrong in that one week but I realize that a lot of these things really are just chromosomal and not necessarily " another problem with me. " At that time I didn't think I could just sit around waiting for it to miscarry itself (it had already been almost 2 full weeks since the demise) so I had a D & C and everything went well for me. I'm sure it's better to let it happen naturally, but for me, I just couldn't do it. They also told me to not try to conceive for 3 months afterwards. I know all doctors are different (my sil was told to wait one month) but I wondered if your doctor said anything about waiting. Good luck with it all. I know how it is and I appreciate all you do for this group! UD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
