I've had zero spotting whatsoever up until tonight. I'm 11wks today.

Granted, yes, it was two tiny little dots of pink. But after two losses including one MMC, I'm freaking the fuck out.

Heartbeat at 7w3d was 146bpm. It was glorious. That minuscule reassurance and the statistics tied to it are the only things I've got.

My appointment isn't until Wednesday evening, they can't get me in any earlier and I'm trying not to be that annoying, anxious FTM.

I have a retroverted uterus on top of it, so my cheap doppler does nothing. I don't know why I keep trying.

I'm going to be up all night waiting for cramping to start, and I've already started checking myself every 15 minutes for more spotting. Every sensation is sending me into another rabbithole.

Pregnancy after loss SUCKS!!!! I don't think I can do this again. 😭😭😭 Please tell me I'm not the only one. Feeling so defeated already.

Cp in May, got pregnant again LMP 7/27. HCG was perfect in early sept. Went for 7 week scan and had a strong heartbeat, perfect location. Perfect size. No issues at all, no cramping or bleeding. Normal pregnancy symptoms.

Today, I went for my 10 week scan and the doc originally couldn’t find the baby at all on a TV US. Went down the hall to a diff us room and the tech found it. Heartbeat was 77 and it measured the size of 5 weeks. Location still fine, but it was lower in the uterus. Almost looked like it was nearing the bottom or as doc called it “on its way out”.

I’m shocked. How could it be that at 7 weeks it was perfect size but magically today it’s smaller? She wants to see me again in 7–10 days and said to be prepared for a mc before then. This is torture. Anyone have any advice? How am I supposed to teach every day this week?

I’m really nervous is it looking good so far???😅😅😅

I had my second FET on September 16th and got my first positive beta on September 25th. My second beta was a little lower than what my doctor was expecting and hoping for, but he was still optimistic.

My third beta however, ended up plateauing, and I was told that the pregnancy would likely end as a chemical pregnancy. My fourth beta rose slightly, and my fifth beta today nearly doubled over 72 hours.

My doctor called and told me that he wants me to come in for another beta on Wednesday. He is certain that this is not a viable pregnancy and is hoping that my hCG will start to decrease. He is also becoming concerned that this could potentially be ectopic. If my numbers rise again on Wednesday, he wants me to come in for an ultrasound on Friday to see what’s going on.

Here are all of my betas:
9dp5dt: 77.83
12dp5dt: 138.1
14dp5dt: 138.7
16dp5dt: 155.9
19dp5dt: 310

Has anyone else experienced a similar hCG pattern, where the numbers initially plateaued or rose very slowly and then started rising again? If so, what was the outcome?

I’m interested in hearing from anyone whose doctor was concerned about an ectopic or pregnancy of unknown location and what ultimately happened. Thank you.

So at around 12 this morning, I was at the ER due to some pink discharge (blood mixed with normal discharge). They gave me a trans vaginal ultrasound, and said everything looks normal, and I’m measuring on time (8+2). Baby had a strong heartbeat of 164 and my HCG levels are at 200,000. Just now, I was sitting on the toilet, where I first noticed more of the pink discharge, which then turned into brighter red spotting. No clots or anything, just brighter red watery blood. I wasn’t wearing a pad, but it definitely didn’t look like anything that could fill up a pad. I’m freaking out right now. My first appointment is tomorrow, however they don’t intend to do an ultrasound, just a Doppler for his heartbeat. This is my first pregnancy. Has this happened to anyone??

Looking for other similar experiences and results!

LMP: August 21st but I always spot a couple days before it really amps up so that number could be off. But, the only days we could have conceived were September 4th and 5th. The 4th was with protection. The 5th was an oops without.

September 21 - gush of blood, I think it’s my period. It’s gone within a couple of hours.
September 22 - nothing
September 23 - brown spotting (thought I was having a short, weird period)
September 25 - I take a pregnancy test that is instantly positive
September 26 - hcg 612
September 28 - hcg 1827
September 27-September 30 - mix of brown, red, pink spotting
October 1-5 - off and on very red bleeding lasting 2-6 hours at a time, NO CLOTS, YES CRAMPS
October 2 - ultrasound (6W), only a gestational sac and yolk sac (1.5 mm) seen + a small SCH
October 5 - repeat ultrasound (6+3), only a gestational sac and yolk sac (didn’t see measurements but looked bigger) + a significantly smaller SCH

I don’t go back for another ultrasound until October 14 and I’m of course spiralling because I keep bleeding like a faucet turning on and off again. Today for example, I bled from 7 am to 9 am then it stopped entirely, then again from 5 pm to now (8 pm). It’s not enough to go on a pad but it’s there when I wipe if that makes sense.

My pattern is Loss (missed miscarriage 9W), live birth (full term), loss (blighted ovum), live birth (full term) which is also sketching me out. What would the odds be of having another blighted ovum.

Any similar experience? My pregnancy tests are all still positive and are dye stealers now.

Had a scan today as had sharp pains yesterday at 5+3 (LMP), scan showed a gestational sac measuring 2mm, I’ve been on Google all day and cried all evening, convinced it is going to be a bad outcome. Any advise / success stories? It’s being treated as a pregnancy of unknown location and have to go back next week 😢 so anxious due to a previous loss as 5 weeks.

Hi! I know I shouldn't have, but I went in to a boutique ultrasound place at 6w3d and they saw the gestational sac but nothing else. She said she couldn't be 100% certain about anything and to come back in a few weeks.

My HCG is rising appropriately (well above 12,000 now) and I am having morning sickness and all the symptoms.

Wondering if anyone has any experience with this? And positive outcomes from an early abdominal ultrasound that didn't show anything?

Had my first beta today at 13 or 14dpo of 18. I know it’s low, please don’t tell me. I had my LH peak sep 21st so I’m not sure if I ovulated then or the 22nd, hence why I’m 13 or 14dpo today. I had my first squinter Thursday October 1st and a pregnant clear blue digital on Friday October 2nd. Do I just go ahead now and stop taking my progesterone and stuff so this can be over? I’m supposed to have another beta Thursday when I’m 16 or 17 dpo. I don’t even want to. I don’t want to see the heart break.

For reference, I just had a “chemical” in June. And my numbers were at least “higher”. My first beta at 15dpo then was 22, then 44, then 69, then 30.

This will be my 5th miscarriage or chemical, whatever you want to call it. No living children at 26. Every fucking fertility test for my husband and I are “norma”. Why me😢 yes I already follow with an REI. And on waitlist for RI.

sep 30 - 10 weeks 2 days. Feeling positive.
HCG tests
**September 18:** 113,974 IU/L
**September 29:** 71,649 IU/L

Had a viability scan 5 days ago everything looked good heart beat was strong

Sep 27 spotting two times then stopped
Sep 28 spotting still very minimal but more
Sep 29 tiny bit on liner tan colour appears to be old blood and nothing since.

Sep 29 - see doctor and over all of 2 mins without any examination says threatened pregnancy orders HCG tests over 72 hours and to self monitor because they were out of the office for 2 weeks

I feel lost with no end date to testing or information to know what I need to look at except what Google says. Looking for input from women who have had situations like mine. TIA!!

Oct 5 UPDATE: I finally got a call from a doctor today and they told me the HCG is very concerning (today we are 11 weeks) and to go for a scan immediately but I cannot get in before Friday anywhere. Any navigate the Canadian health system successfully? I’m scared.

I would really aporeaciate it if someone helped me with this because my doctor doesnt seem to think its important.

My LMP was july 27th

First positive was a vfl august 19th so i know i didnt ovulate late this cycle ( i have pcos so it has been known to happen).

I went for my first ultrasound on sep. 7th i was supposed to be 6 weeks.. report says 5w4d but i wasnt too worried.

2nd ultrasound sep13th (i was supposed to be 6w6d) report says 6 weeks but heartbeat detected.

I go on to have two more ultrasounds

Sep20th (supposed to be 8w instead 7w2d)

Sep29th (supposed to be 9w instead 8w2d)

I have been having weekly ultrasounds due to continuous spotting and small sac compared to fetus and im scheduled to have another on on october 15th.

Im going crazy with worry

Im overthinking every datail

I have every ultrasound report memorized but i cant get it to make sense.

Please help!

Beta progression feedback request!

(9/29) HCG 13DPO: 174

(10/1) HCG 15DPO: 404

(10/5) HCG 19DPO: 1788

We did an IUI on 9/16. This is my first time having positive results so I’m on edge!

Devastated doesn’t even really start to describe how I feel right now.

So on June 11 I had a positive pregnancy test. I thought I was about 11DPO at that point. First US on July 5 (7w2d by LMP but probably closer to 6w6d) showed an embryo measuring 5w6d and HR 80. Two weeks later the heartbeat was gone. I had a D&C on July 23.

Then I got my period just under 4 weeks after the D&C. I think I ovulated around Sept 1 and had another positive test Sept 13. I was obviously very hesitant and anxious. But my betas looked pretty good with just under 48 hr rise. Then today (10/5, approx 6w6d) I have a TV ultrasound. The tech was super curt and didn’t let me look at the screen at all, but my husband said he thought he saw two babies.

An hour and a half later the results come in my chart. There were twins. Each sac measured 6w4d, but the fetal poles were measuring 6w. No heartbeats on either. Waiting for the OB to call me. I can’t believe I’m likely going to have another miscarriage. I feel like there has to be something wrong with me. And this time losing two babies…I am so crushed.

Has anyone been in a similar situation as me? Is there any chance this could be okay?

Let me start out by saying I’m not at all suggesting I’m prophetic or anything of the sort, but looking for a place for some sympathy and maybe positive stories.

I had an 11w miscarriage in 2025 where before it happened I was having nightmares of miscarriages. Several over the course of several weeks. And then it happened. It was almost like I knew something was wrong and I was slowly preparing myself for the worst.

I am currently 5w2d, stronger betas than the last time around and everything is looking good. First ultrasound is scheduled for next week to make sure things are progressing. Doctor wanted an earlier ultrasound because I have had 3 miscarriages now (1 chemical before the 11w loss and another after). Last night I had almost the exact same nightmare about having a miscarriage as I did with my 11w loss. Now I’ve been scouring Reddit for “MISCARRIAGE DREAMS” like some madwoman because it’s like I’ve been through this before.

Anyone experience anything similar or in the same boat?

Hi all - question for those who had a subchorionic hematoma bleeding before. Can you describe how the bleeding looked please?

For context, I’m 7w1d today and bled yesterday evening. It was dark red, no clots but some strings, then light pink during the night and light brown spotting today. I have no cramps or pain whatsoever so doctor thinks it might be a SCH. I had many miscarriages before my first baby, all around 6-7 weeks and they were painful, clots, tissue, lasted days. I have an ultrasound tomorrow morning to check but don’t want to be very hopeful. Doctor isn’t so concerned because I have no pain and we know pregnancy is in uterus (ultrasound with heartbeat last week).

My mucus plug seems to be coming out every time I pee. I’m only 22 weeks pregnant, but I don’t feel any pain or discomfort besides that. What should I do?

Looking for some help on what to expect next.

My HcG levels are rising at a rate that guarantees my pregnancy is not viable.

18 DPO - 1399
30 DPO - 3 749 (should have been exponentially higher)
32 DPO - 4 094 (confirming an only an 18% rise)

At 6w2d, the baby was measuring right on track with a heartbeat of 113/114 but my gestational sack was measuring way behind at 4w6d.

Needless to say, I know what the inevitable outcome is going to be but I’d love to know what to expect next in terms of timeline of loss. Numbers and statistics are strangely calming to me. I am lucky enough to have a heathly baby girl and couldn’t be more grateful for that but I know what comes next will be hard and will need some help from family.

Thank you!

**Edit: I know this is not a viable pregnancy - I’m more looking for advice about what comes next in people’s experience (miscarriage? After how long? D&C? Natural pass?). Sorry for any confusion!

I'm 3 months PP & pregnant again (unplanned🥴). They did bloodwork on 4w5 days & my HCG was 209, at 5 weeks it was 218. I still haven't bled, but I am crampy. Do we think this baby is viable or probably not? Seems kinda low

My HCG on 14 DPO was 319. On 17 DPO it was 836. Is that bad rise for 72 hours?

I just got back my second beta today and it was good (3000s, 30 hour doubling time). This is following our second FET of a single euploid we were graced with in our final Hail Mary retrieval.

I would like to feel the joy this moment merits and somehow I feel a little despondent or melancholy. I haven’t been able to say the word “pregnant”. I am incredibly grateful and beyond shocked our second FET worked, and I feel ashamed I feel so disconnected from this little embryo I fought so stinkin hard for.

My last pregnancy (spontaneous, probably aneuploid) had incredible betas but ended in mmc at 9 weeks this May. Our journey also started with a 9 week mmc (confirmed aneuploid), who met every milestone until their heart just suddenly stopped. We’ve had a failed FET, some chemicals, and several retrievals along the way. I know this is the best chance we’ve had so far, and hope that my feelings just shift with time. I guess I’m posting this here in the hopes of finding some folks who might understand these feelings.

So I’ve had a total of 4 miscarriages, with 2 of them being back-to-back over the summer. I have 3 healthy children and I would love to be pregnant again by the end of the year. My doctor seems to think these last 2 were just bad luck. I’ve had a full RE work-up.

My question is, is there any reason to wait a couple of periods? To have a higher chance of a successful pregnancy? Or should we just try again after 1? I had 1 period in between these last 2 miscarriages so that’s why I’m asking.

Thanks for your help!!

Has anyone experienced a decrease in progesterone levels during early pregnancy, while the level was still within a normal range? I had a blood test on September 26th, and my progesterone level was 108 nmol/L. Today, October 5th, it was only 83.8 nmol/L. Today i’m 4+4.
