I'm sorry for your loss. It can take weeks to actually have the miscarriage. I found out about my first pregnancy being unviable at 4 or 5 weeks along and didn't pass anything until 12 weeks. That was the hardest few weeks of my life (at the time). I've now been through 2 more losses including a 2nd trimester loss which required a D & E after 3 days of failed labour induction. Anyways I went off on a tangent there, sorry. I hope things start quickly for you.

I am not sure what you mean about losing patience…It is your body working naturally
I had a missed abortion once and Dr. decided to perform a curettage cause I did not want to wait longer, but I guess each doctor and case is different.
As previous poster said it can take quite long until something happens by itself
Meggy, could you ask for Misoprostol?? This drug is helped to induce miscarriage. I used it with my 8 week pregnancy, and within 6 hours I had almost everything out. I bleed pretty good for about a week and half.
I'm sorry for you loss, we are all here for support!

meggy, I'm sorry it is taking longer then you had hoped. I personally think if you can wait and allow it to occur naturally, it is better for you in the long run, because a d&c could cause damage to your cervix and cause problems with carrying future pregnancies.
You could ask about taking that drug that Merc took to bring things on quicker?

I hate the wait its so sad to know that once was growing inside you is now gone yet its still there. With this last m/c i opted for the D&C. i treid to pass my other 2 on my own and ended up in alot of pain bleeding alot and in the ER. I just couldn ot do that again. My thoughts are with you in this time

Meggy-- I'm so sorry for your loss. I just had a missed miscarriage at 8.5 weeks. I also stopped the progesterone supps and was waiting and waiting. I waited almost three weeks and NOTHING. I started taking antibiotics after two weeks because I got nervous I might develop an infection. Finally I took Mistoprostol vaginally last Wednesday and Thursday night and I started bleeding. I thought I had passed everything but last weekend I was in severe pain (cramping and back pain) so I knew something was wrong. On Monday I went in and on the u/s they could see a lot of tissue and blood backed up in the uterus. So I ended up having to do a D & C. It was a blessing to be free of the pain, but I was pretty bummed because I really wanted to avoid an operation.
I would definitely try the meds before moving on to the D & C. The meds are effective for most woman... just not for me. Best of luck.

thanks for all ur responses ladies.......im still waiting-2nd week over......dunno , it seems like life is such a cruel joke- first u take meds to get the baby in u.....then u take other meds to get it out of u?!......i am getting random cramps- nothing more....i wud hav probably taken the cytotec/misoprostol.......but dh is very against taking it coz it has horrible s/e- u vomit like crazy , cramp/bleed like mad and basically close to die for a day....thats wat happened to my sis as well.....so she and dh want me to avoid it.......and so , here i am , waiting.....which is ok coz i can handle it emotionally-just my inherent impatience creeps up from time to time...

Meggy--Have you ever taken this medication before? I had to use cytotec to induce my labor with my first son, who was born still. IT did cause me to start my labor process as I was 22 weeks, but it didn't make me vomit or anything. Everyone is different and you might now have the same s/e's as your sister did. I just think that while it is important to listen to your family, it is ultimately your body and your decision. What do YOU want to do?

I also never vomited on cytotec but it didn't induce my labor either and after 3 days they finally did a d and c but that was because I was in my 2nd trimester and could not leave the hospital until everything was out.

thanx ladies for all ur inputs........went to my doc today-she said until my hcg comes down , things wont move .......for last 2 weeks it was >25,000.their test doesnt go beyond this..........today it was 20,500.........so well , im waiting......she said that if my body isnt ready , then cytotec may not even work...as it is it works only 85-90% of the time....but i got a prescription , for in case it takes forever and i cant handle it anymore........they also did an ultrasound and it seems that the baby is shrinking...they did it in the same room where i had first seen the heart beat.........it brought so many emotions back......same room , same patient , same tech , just no baby this time.....i was thinking im ok now- but sometimes it just hits u...
