Hey there. It´s so nice to find this site because I have felt so alone and really need some support and comfort. I had my last period of the 24th of September and have taken two pregnancy tests, both of which were positive. Acording to my last period, I should be 6 weeks and 3 days pregant...hopefully. I´m a little young but my boyfriend and I have been nothing but excited and happy since I got the positive pregnancy test results. Everything happend so fast and I had been planning to go on a weekend trip that week with a friend of mine. We found out I was pregnant on the Wednesday and I left the next day to travel so we thought we would see a doctor as soon as I got back and until then just keep healthy. I did a lot of research on diet and pregnancy so I tried to keep myself in the healthiest state possible. My boyfriend and I were on a high of happiness...i´ve never felt so happy before in my life and that´s when I realized that I want a baby more than ever. We were planning to get married and start a family soon anyway so it´s not like this pregnancy was a problem for us.

Anyway, for about a week before I found out I was pregnat until now i´ve been having bad lower back pain and slight cramping here and there but I wasn´t worried because I read that this was normal. But on the Saturday, the worst happened. The cramps started getting really bad and late that night I went to the bathroom and saw that I was bleeding. It wasn´t very heavy but I could see that it was red with brown. The cramps were pretty painful that night but not too painful as some women describe and the cramps carried out until the morning until they finally stopped later on that day. The bleeding continued however but never in huge amounts, kind of like a period, maybe a little lighter than most periods but there was some small clots that passed for about a day or so.

Today (the Wednesday after, a week since I found out I was pregnant) I am still bleeding but it is only spotting and has been for the last couple days with no clots. I have no more cramps but still have that darn backpain. When I found out I was pregnant my boobs for some reason felt huge and now they are pathetic sagging litle things. Does all this mean I misscarried? I went to the doctor yesterday and he did a pelvic exam but didn´t tell me much and as I am in a different country, I didn´t really feel comfortable with him or ask him much. He was such a horrible little man. He said that he thinks I had a misscarriage but we had to do blood work and an ultrasound to confirm. I had blood taken that day and have an ultrasound and will find out the blood results tomorrow. I´m hoping for the best. This is my first pregnancy so i´m not sure what to expect from the results. What should good blood results look like? If I was still pregnant, would they be able to hear the heart beat? What are my chances that i´m still pregnant? Has anyone ever had a similar experience and what was the outcome?

Any response is greatly appreciated as I am alone in a foreign contry and only have my boyfriend to confide in. It´s great to read and see that i´m not alone. Thanks a bunch and good luck to all of you! God bless!
