Great site! Thank you for all this wonderful information. I am wondering if I had a miscarriage and would like some help from folks to figure it out:
I had sex on the first day of my period. Exactly one month later, to the day, I began my ‘period’ with some light spotting, brown, and no cramping. I thought it was unusual, perhaps dysmenorrhea, because I almost always have severe cramps when I have my period, the heavier my bleeding, the more cramps I have. The next morning, I put in a new tampon and noticed I had bled a some more, then drove 1.5 hour commute to work. Again, with no cramps or signs, I bled, but so heavy that I had bled through my tampon and to my pants, as if I had peed my pants! There was a lot of blood clots with the blood. I was a little scared when I saw the blood and it made me feel like I was dying, event though, hey, it’s my period, so I went out to the store and bought pads to supplement the tampons. I bought leak-proof night guard super pads, and within 3 hours I had bled through them and there was blood on the floor in several places where I had been crouching removing some labels from jars. Throughout all this I had no pain or cramping. I had not a thought in my head I could be pregnant, but I did notice before any of this had happened that my cognitive function had been impaired, and I couldn’t call people their correct names, and called saws drills and stairs ladders, and was more open about things I would have normally kept private. The only time I could recall having acted similarly was when I was drunk, not when menstruating or under stress.
I think it’s a toss up as to whether I was pregnant or not; anyone have expert knowledge on this that can give me some peace of mind and definitive answers about this situation?

I lost my baby on March 2, 2012 after we had found out that she did not have bladder or kidneys. She was my first baby and we miss her much.

This is my First Mother’s Day with an angel. My angel was born 3/2/12 at 22 1/2 weeks. She did not have kidneys or a bladder.

This book is great, I have only found books with all of the pages for 9 months of pregnancy, not 5 1/2.

My Peanut didn’t live long enough to be born, but I still think of my baby everyday. On some days, I can bring myself to look through the memorial box.. just to smile.. to cry.. to remember.

I am grateful for having my mother and enjoy spoiling her on Mothers Day but I silently cry on Mothers Day and am too afraid to let my emotions show. I dearly long for the baby that was gone too soon. I long for the day that I will hold my sweet baby in my arms and shower him in kisses. It has been 5 years but the pain and sorrow is still rooted in my heart.
