When I miscarried, I first saw brownish orange blood. I knew it wasn't right. Then, I started a "period" with huge clots that looked like grape jelly.

I have a very good friend with PCOS. She had a lot of the symptoms- heavy periods, back acne, oily skin, etc... She miscarried 3 or 4 times before she and her doc were able to get the hormones right. She is now the mom of 2 beautiful little girls.... who are 15 months apart.

I don't want to bring your spirits down. my mom tired for 3 years from I believe 37.... had 4 miscarriages.. then finally concieved at 40.. and had her baby at 41... so I guess it just determins on your overall health. GOOD LUCK! Everyone deserves to be a mom.\n\nby the way, this was her 5th child.

It could have been another miscarriage.  You really need to see an OB/GYN because it could also be a symptom of uterine fibroids.\nThis condition can cause miscarriage as well as heavy bleeding during periods. Most women don't even know they have fibroids until symptoms start appearing.  There is a non-invasive diagnostic test called an ultrasound to detect fibroids. There are a few treatments for this condition. Please see the doctor for a full pelvic exam as soon as possible. I hope this helps, you can find further information on webmd.com

A period is the shedding of the wall of the utereus. If a woman was pregnant and her uterine wall shed, she would have a miscarriage. \n\nThere was a friend in high school who found out she was pregnant and then a few days later she miscarried. She said there was a " really really big" clump of blood.\n\nAlso when my sister miscarried, her bleeding was very painful.

Typical early sign of being pregnant is missing or delayed period. Depends on women, some will experience pregnancy symptoms within a week of conception, some may not experience it at all for couple weeks. Other than missing period, typical signs of pregnancy are as follows: Swollen or Enlarged Breasts, Nausea or unusual noticeable morning sickness, backaches, headaches, frequent urination, cravings for food, and fatigue. On some cases, you may not even have those symptoms. Best way would be get pregnancy tests. I would suggest get 2 of them from the store and test it. One for the during morning, other for the night or next day morning. If positive, consult with doctor verify(although most of the time tests are accurate, it's not 100%).

If its heavy and clotty then it could be an early miscarriage...seek medical advice ASAP!.  If its dark and scanty in quantity then it could be pregnancy as the others suggested...;

You should look at this one, though I'm not certain it answers your question. This, of course, is just one  little bit from it.\n\n"The researchers also found that women who had bleeding during pregnancy, those who had three or more first-trimester abortions, and those who had either a miscarriage or pregnancy termination in the second trimester were more likely to miscarry after amniocentesis. " (1)\n\nThis also has some good information:\nhttp://www.cdc.gov/genomics/gtesting/ACCE/FBR/CF/CFCliUti_34.htm\n\nBecause I don't know the circumstances of your miscarriage, the possible genetic problems that were being looked for and so on, I can't research\nyour question very well. But a Yahoo! search on "rate of miscarriage amniocentesis" seems to turn up some pretty in-depth reports. Just skip anything like "Baby News" and such. A quick glance can show whether a site is relevant and reputable.\n\nBest luck with future pregnancies, and my condolences on your loss.

Pregnancy signs and symptoms occur either at the time of a missed period, or a week or two later. Symptoms include missed period, fatigue, tender and swollen breasts, implantation bleeding, nausea and or vomiting, food aversions, frequent urination, and increased sensitivity to odors. Not everyone experiences symptoms, and some people feel some but not all symptoms. Implantation bleeding occurs a bit earlier than expected, and it is scanty, spotty, pinkish and not red and heavy like a period, and does not follow the normal pattern of a period (light to heavy to light). If you feel you might be pregnant, your best bet would be to see your doctor at least 2 weeks after a missed period to get a blood pregnancy test done, as this is the most accurate way of testing.

You should make an appointment with your gynecologist.\nIt could have been just some extra skin coming off. A miscarriage would accompany heavier than normal bleeding and some cramping.

Some causes can be immunological, chromosomal, hormonal, an incompetent cervix, or an STD. Fetuses that self-terminate are because of genetic abnormalties. A fertility specialist may help. I suffered 4. So sad, I feel for you and your husband. For me, we kept trying and I changed my diet, excercised and lowered my stress. I did have tests too but nothing showed. My doc put me on progesterone in the beginning of 3 of my pregnancies right from the very start and that worked because now I have 3 children. Good luck and keep strong. 5 miscarriages doesn't mean that you cannot have children. My friend had 7 in a row but had 3 children after. You should get emotional help to go through this tough time. God bless!

It could be normal or it could be a miscarriage. If you are experiencing bad pains then I would go to the doctor to make sure it isn't a miscarriage. You could take a pregnancy test first and it would tell you. It is normal to have some blood clots though. Sometimes more than other times.

unfortunately theres nothing you can do to avid it. ive had 7 miscarriages. i still have 3 kids but i had to stay on strict bed rest from the moment i found out i was pregnant until i gave birth. if youve only had one miscarraige, dont worry too much. if you have more go to the dr and get tests done. they should start testing after the 3rd miscarraige. but i definately suggest waiting  a few months before trying again. i have been pregnant 10 times in the last 7 years if i have another miscarraige my dr says i will need hysterectomy. im only 22. give your body time to heal.
