Sorry ur going through this. Sadly it will most likely be a missed abortion.  I lost 3, the first one being a miscarriage, the other two where missed abortion, I like u had spotting then all cleared up but sadly there was no heartbeat. I then had to go through avacuated abortion. The last one had stopped developing at 9 wks also but i carried untill 16wks. I ended up seriously ill as it had led to infection, not treated. Its a long story i wont bore u with it. My point is not to scare u but to impress on u that u need to take care of urself & u will go on to have a successful pregnacy in the future. Best wishes to you !

Sorry to say but its missed abortion..a missed miscarriage can occur at any time in the first trimester. it's rare, but it can also occur later on..so take care of yourself...

hi i got pregnant after my wedding in june and we also miscarried in august. the baby stopped growing after about 10 weeks. i too had some blood, not much, one night at work. went to the dr the next day and the baby had no heartbeat. we were so sad. we also have a five year old son who was really looking forward to having a sibling. i then had to have a d&c. we waited the 3 months the dr recomended and got pregnant again in december! i am now about 30 weeks and due sept. 9th. i did have some brown discharge at about 3 months, and lasted about a month, but the baby is fine and they couldnt find any reasons why this was happening. hoping for the best. good luck to you!
