Early Miscarriage and After Symptoms

I have never lost anyone but my grandma has lost twins right after they were born. I am sorry that you lost them. I would say the best thing to do in your situation is to pray.

Jesus I pray Lord for K. that you would give her comfort. I pray that your love will shine upon her. I resist that sickness in the name of Jesus. I command her body to line up with the word of God. Be healed in the name of Jesus. By Jesus stripes you are healed. I command her sleeping to return to normal. I pray Lord that you would open up that womb so that she may have a baby. In Jesus name I pray amen.

K., As a person who experienced a miscarriage myself I understand what you are going through and I am so sorry for your loss. We live in a society that still doesn't share the pain a family experiences at this time. Your job expects you back to work as normal, friends,and even family don't talk to you about what has happened, or worse yet will say things only to make you feel worse. "Something must have been wrong", "you'll have another", even "everything in God's time". Even though the time you had knowing of your pregency was short your body and mind will take some time. Take time to morn, to share your loss with your husband, and if people say things that are dumb remember they may be uncorforable with the subject.You may be experiencing a degree of depression which can explain feeling tired. But remember this is normal.You are allowed this, and it's ok. You're body needs rest and your mind needs to go through the grief process. Don't expect to jump up and go,go, go. Go to the things that give you pleasure, or do something special for your loss. Church, plant a garden in memory, or just a quiet afternoon with your family. We live in a fast lane society and this is a time when you need to slow it down, take it easy, and you will move on. I'm not a doctor so if you feel call him/her or go in and talk about the things you feel. I hope I helped a little. Your sister in God. C.

I had 3 miscarriages before I had my 1st child (carried her for 10 months, thought I was going for elephant status!). The first one was early on, in the second month. I was exhausted, my body had (as has your's) gone through a trauma, I can't honestly say I remember much about the pain (I was 26 and am 56 now).
The second one I lost at 4 months, and the doctor did a DNC within a week. Same exhaustion, trauma feeling etc.
The third I lost at 5 1/2 months after spending 3 weeks on bed rest. They did a DNC immediately at the hospital. I was still exhausted, and had the trauma symptoms.
Do you take vitamins? You might start if you don't, they will help some.
I will be praying for you.

I lost my baby at 5 months gestation. The biggest thing I remember at it was the feeling of emptiness. I had to have a d&c because I bled very heavily and was in a lot of pain. I do remember being tired when I got out of the hospital but mostly I just felt numb. I know this probably doesn't help answer your question really well but it is about all I can offer. I wouldn't worry to much about being tired and such. No matter how far along you were, your body still had to undergo a lot of changes trying to support this child. Please talk to your doc if you are worried that things aren't as they should be. I wish you the best, Shannon G.

Hi K., I recently miscarried in Feb. similiar situation, I found out on a wednesday and miscarried on a friday. I was in pain and bleeding a lot (loss of that much blood would surely make you exhausted) my doctor wanted to me have a D&C immediatley and I did and I felt great afterward (physically). I would ask your doctor for the D&C.

I found out last Friday I was pregnant and then started bleeding Monday. It was just at 5 1/2 weeks, but I never expected to feel so tired. I couldn't lift my head off the pillow. Emotionally I was doing okay, but physically drained of all energy. I had a little more bleeding than usual and some cramps, but nothing extraordinary. I didn't have any pain other than that and the drs told me to just make sure I wasn't soaking through a pad an hour. I'd call your doctor and ask them. They've done this often and should be able to help you.

As far as I know, any time a miscarriage occurs, you have to have a D&C to get yourself "cleaned out" I would get ahold of your doctor right away and ask them. It could be why you are tired and lethargic. I would not wait, it could be toxic to your system if you dont get it taken care of. I wouldnt take any chances if I were you.

Hi K.,

I am so sorry for your loss.

I hear a lot of people continue with pregnancy symptoms until their HCG levels drop back to normal....
I never really had symptoms since I had the miscarriages very early on, 6 to 8 weeks and have never needed a D&C.

Your body will normalize soon, I would say it is probably emotional or you may need a D&C to make sure there's nothing left in there that can cause symptoms and complications.

Depends on how far along you were.

Again, I am sorry about your loss...

Hi K., I have never had a m/c, but lost our daughter at 75 days to SIDS, found the most wonderful group, sidsfamilies.com, who also help those w/ m/c. we will always try to help, or at least give support. I am so sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you. A.

Hi K.!

I am so sorry to hear that you had to experience what you did!

I also had a miscarriage over the winter and my experiemce was quite different and extreme from most, but it sounds to me that maybe you could be anemic. With such drastic blood loss from a miscarriage, a lot of people experience this. In addition, your body has just been through a trauma, physically and emotionally.. .it can make you feel very tired!

Ask your doctor about it when you go for your next lab work. He may need to do more blood work.

I wish you the best!

Hi K.. So sorry you are having to go through this too. I miscarried a few weeks ago - should've been 11w, found out the baby passed around 6w at my 8w ultrasound and decided to miscarry naturally. It is still physically and emotionally draining. I ended up having to go to the ER for an emergency D&C anyway because of excessive bleeding. You feel this way because your body HAS been through trauma. I never thought that it would be that rough (physically) on my body to m/c that early either, but it is. I have found that Babycenter.com has been a great place to turn - they have an infant/pregnancy loss bulletin board, which is a great place for questions and support from women who have, or are going through exactly what you are. Hope you feel better soon, I know exactly how difficult everything is and will be right now.

A miscarriage can takee it out of you mentally, physically, and emotionally. I had a misscarriage at 6 or 7 weeks and it was a downer for me for about a month. I had to focus on my crafts, reading a good book, or something else I really enjoyed. Once things were strightened out with my physical being, I had to make up my mind to straighten out my mental and emotional state. I eventually had my daughter. She was beautiful and very much loved. I felt that the time wasn't right for a child when I had my miscarriage. I was fine and rarely even thought about the miscarriage only if someone said something about it.
