Hi all, thanks for all the replies and positive stories!

Had my follow-up scan last night and unfortunately I definitely MC'd - everything is looking clear and healthy though so will not have to have a D&C so thats good I guess.

I actually feel like I've turned a bit of a corner this morning, woke up feeling a bit more positive about things - DH and I discussed trying again last night so maybe talking about our future helped.

Thanks again

I am the Oct mum that littlestar is talking about.

I lost a twin at 7 weeks. I went in to cervical shock meaning that my cervix actually opened and I passed massive clots and lots of bright red blood. My MW was there at the time as I rang her when I first started bleeding and passed clots etc about 30 mins later. We were both positive it was a complete miscarriage so never bothered with a scan. I was talking toher two days later and asked when the MS should go away and thats when we scanned and found the other twin!

In saying all this, it is highly unusual to actually miscarry a twin. Usually a twin will die and be reabsorbed. My MW has been working as a MW for like 15 years and she has never had a patient that has actually miscarry a twin.

I am not saying that to be awful but just so you don't get your hopes up! I know how nerve wracking and stressful it is to wait and the sort of games your mind plays on you.

I also know lots of people that have had mega bleeds (no clots) and wicked cramps and they now have lovely little children.

Good Luck!]]> Tue, 14 Apr 2009 18:44:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25833&PID=660001&title=waiting-for-confirmation#660001 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25833&PID=659563&title=waiting-for-confirmation#659563 Author: littlestar

BIG HUGS!!
One of the October ladies went through this - thought all was lost but it was a twin MC and she is still carrying a perfectly fine baby.
I can't even begin to imagine what she had to go through when she found out though.

I had my MC over my birthday and xmas - so I can understand it does rather bugger up what should have been a fantastic holiday!

HUGS!!! and every finger and toe crossed that this is just some super mean awful trick your bubs is playing.]]> Tue, 14 Apr 2009 09:51:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25833&PID=659563&title=waiting-for-confirmation#659563 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25833&PID=658693&title=waiting-for-confirmation#658693 Author: BaAsKa

Hi there

Its been a pretty awful Easter for me. Woke up with bleeding on Thursday morning, went to the doctor - my cervix was still closed so all was not lost. Went for a scan and was told everything was where it should be for 5 weeks so will rescan next week.

Went home and about an hour later had crippling cramps and heavy bleeding with clots for about an hour and a half. Felt terrible on Friday, started coming right on Saturday but no longer feel pregnant (no "gentle" cramps, boobs aren't sore etc).

Am definitely not holding onto false hope but seems strange that everything was perfectly fine and then miscarried an hour later, but I have no idea how all this works.

Has anyone had a similar experience with a positive outcome? ie small chance I've lost a twin? I'm fully prepared to have my miscarriage confirmed next week, but was just curious .... :-(
