What to do in a miscarriage?

Question

I’m pretty high risk for a miscarriage at the moment and I just can’t stop thinking about it, which probably making it worse. But, if it does happen.. and I start bleeding heavily, do I need to go to the ER? I’m only 5 weeks, would they be able to do anything? If there’s a possibility of them stopping it, then yes I would go in a heartbeat. But I have a 3 year old and I would have to call my MIL to watch him while me and my husband went to the ER and we haven’t told them yet because we don’t want to break their hearts too if it happens. I keep praying and praying but it doesn’t look good. I’m spotting right now and my cramping is very slowly getting worse. I’m just a huge over thinker and my brain just won’t shut up and i constantly need reassurance 😬😓.

Answer

No the Er can’t stop a miscarriage this early.

Answer

I miscarried last cycle at exactly 5 weeks. I saw my GP that day because I had an appointment already booked to confirm the pregnancy. She said yes there wasn’t anything they could do. She did say to watch out for extreme pain and to seek medical help if I had that. It really was like a heavy period in the end. My pain was also like a heavy period and fine with just paracetamol.
Most miscarriages occur due to chromosomal problems - they just don’t come together well. It’s horrible but remember it’s generally nothing you’ve done to cause it.

Answer

Any stop anything really till after 20 weeks.

Answer

No, unfortunately they can’t do anything to stop a miscarriage. If you start bleeding or spotting just inform your doctor. Not all bleeding means miscarriage either. I bled with two of my healthy pregnancies.

Answer

I’ve been bleeding / spotting since 5 weeks and 3 days and I’m now 18 weeks and 3 days due to a subcronic hematoma. I e been to the hospital on 6 occasions with bleeds and all the hospital still says “ we can’t do anything for you and baby until your 20 weeks “ so my milestone is 20 weeks.

Answer

Well that’s a pretty scary predicament, but women who are high risk do have bleeding and cramps in the beginning, and everything turn out okay for baby. So just try to keep that in mind. And take deep breaths, I know that’s so hard to do in moments like that. Should you rush to the ER if you’re sure your miscarrying? I personally didn’t. When I had mine it started early in the morning before my OB opened. And I KNEW it was happening. But my OB already informed me that there wasn’t anything they could do to stop it. So If your OB has done all the measures, checked your levels, put you on Progesterone then 🤷🏾‍♀️. Idk. I personally didn’t want to pay the hospital bill because I knew what was happening. So I waited till my OB opened and they confirmed it, and gave me pain meds and stuff. So it’s a personal decision, but that’s my 2cent. But try to really think positive, because for every women with a bad outcome, there’s 4 with a good one. And your little bean can just be trying to stick. So don’t count him/her out yet mamas!

Answer

Unfortunately the doctor can’t stop it 😢 maybe it’s not a miscarriage, maybe it’s just from your cervix. Call your doctor and let them know. They will want to do blood work and it will tell if you are miscarrying. If you have heavy bleeding or bad pain, go to the ER, because it may be ectopic or some other complication.

Answer

Unfortunately the ER cannot do anything. This early on there’s zero to be done if it happens it will happen, best bet is to let it happen naturally, it’s unfortunate and I hope you do not miscarry, think positive, I know it’s easier said than done but that’s all I can really say, pray and ask god that if it’s meant to be, to help your body hold on to it and if not for it to be quick and less painful. God bless you. 🙏

Answer

ER can’t stop a miscarriage unfortunately. If you start bleeding for any reason call your doctor, ask to check everything and if needed get some progesterone or anything that can help before it starts happening. 🤷🏻‍♀️ every case is different. Good luck and healthy pregnancy !!
