A note: this is a bit graphic so please pardon me if this makes you uncomfortable
Had my appointment at 2:40. By then the cramping was worse which I actually glad about because I wanted the doctor to be able to see what I was talking about. The doctor was able to find a heartbeat right away however he said that the cramping was not a good sign. Then he felt up into my cervix and he said that my uterus was expanded (or bloated or something like that). That is a sign that my body is trying to expel the pregnancy. He said that it would be wise to go home and pack a bag and that he thinks I'll need to go to the hospital within 24 hours (more likely tonight). He called the on-call doctor to tell him to possibly expect me. I'm supposed to go to the hospital if there is any bleeding or if the cramping gets worse/closer together like contractions. He said that even though there is still a heartbeat, my body is likely preparing for a miscarriage anyway and that during the miscarriage the heart stops. I didn't know that could happen. Is this all real?
