    I had a missed m/c found at the 9 1/2 Weeks scan - I had probably
    a smear of brownish discharge about a week before but absolutely nothing
    else symptomwise!!

    How about we do a poll on this very question?? If anyone can set it up I will
    definately be involved!!

    Best of luck with everything
    !!

    I was told it's less than one percent...but it does seem to be more common anecdotally. But then that could just be because we have more opportunities to hear about it because of the internet.

    My first miscarriage was in the second trimester, but was still termed a missed miscarriage.

    That's a good question - I also don't know the answer, but got the impression it was rare. Speaking to friends and family, the majority of stories I heard were of miscarriages with symptoms. I had no idea such a thing existed until I had it.
