Sarah,
I am experiencing the end of my miscarriage. It was my first pregnancy. We hadn't yet determined how far along I was. An at home preg test on the 3rd was positive. I started with a bit of spotting on Saturday, July 5th - along with a "strange" feeling in my abdomen. The spotting continued - reddish brown, minor - I thought it may be implantion bleeding. Had a urine preg test at MD on Monday the 7th, positive.
Wednesday, July 9th I woke up at 3 AM with severe cramping - like the worst menstrual cramp ever, but ten times worse! Also had bright red bleeding. I almost fainted, almost went to the ER. Did go into work for five hours or so and saw MD, who took blood sample. My HCG was only 44 - 24 hours later, it was 32. Will follow the count down to 0 with blood tests.
Just wanted to share my experience. I hope you get through safely and go on to have a wonderful child. God does work in mysterious ways; for some reason it was not my time. I only hope we have success in our next attempt. If anyone has any words of wisdom, please let me hear.
Thanks, Kelly
