Alison,
Thanks for the reply. Today I am bleeding and it has dawned in me that I really am going through miscarriage. I am also having period like cramping. I spoke with my doctor and she said my options are either expectant management (waiting for miscarriage to happen naturally), or taking a pill called Misoprostol, or getting a uterine aspiration done. My doctor told me to definitely stay away from the office procedure for uterine aspiration where I basically watch everything that is going on (since I have not has much transvaginal procedures (eg pap smear) done on me.
I read up and it looks like the pill might induce heavy bleeding and pain (?). I am really not sure what to go for. The doctor is saying that its upto me to decide. Since I have started bleeding, does this mean that I should wait for nature to take its course? Thanks again for the advice.
