Explore what happens in the body during miscarriage, and learn about three common treatment options for pregnancy loss.
--
Globally, around 23 million pregnancies end in miscarriage each year. Despite how common it is, miscarriage can still feel isolating, and for some, emotionally traumatizing. And myths about miscarriage add to the stigma, leading many to blame themselves for the loss. So what happens in the body during miscarriage? Nassim Assefi & Emily M. Godfrey take a closer look at pregnancy loss and treatment.
Lesson by Nassim Assefi and Emily M. Godfrey, directed by Lené van Heerden, We Are Batch TV.
A special thanks to the World Health Organization who provided information and insights for the development of this video.

90% of the time 'watch and wait' works out, but the alternatives may be preferable even so. I'm glad the vid pointed out the treatments for complications of miscarriage are similar to abortion and thus many jurisdictions have made such care near impossible.

I had a miscarriage, and I didn’t even know I was pregnant at the time. It was the most physical pain I’d ever been in, and I’ve got tattoos, broken bones, had teeth pulled, been in motorcycle accidents, and at this point have given actual birth (to a perfect daughter). The miscarriage was hands down the worst. Afterwards, what got me through it psychologically was Ali Wong’s stand up about her own miscarriage. It helped me understand how common miscarriage is, and that it doesn’t have to be a big deal unless you need/want it to be.

I'll never understand how, in some states, such as Arkansas and Alabama, it is _illegal_ to have a miscarriage, and you can be arrested and charged with murder or manslaughter for it! I'm not sure how a natural bodily function is at all comparable to murder, but apparently, it is so objectionable to some people that it's treated with the same level of contempt as the worst intentional act a person can commit.

@Sneaker3719 Месяц назад

I've had two miscarriages. My first I just found out I was pregnant, but miscarried the next day. My second I made it to twelve weeks with twins! But then their hearts just stopped beating...I was devastated. My options were to wait to naturally have labor or get a D and C. I opted for the D and C. I didn't want to labor (very bloody) and have them keep sitting inside me. It's been a year now and I still deeply miss my babies🩷. I was blessed to have another baby since the twins though! Please keep talking about these things! So many don't know, or have different assumptions about pregnancy.

Likely because there are those who just want abortions like it's a normal thing, which causes push back that causes the treatment for miscarriages to be difficult to access as the medication is the same for abortions and miscarriage treatment, like what the video said.

at that point the only option is surgical. Medication is used under 12 weeks. I wish they included, that having had a late missed miscarriage i was told by many in my family i didn't need the abortion and to wait it out. But the pregnancy was just too far progressed for it to be done safely.

@ekaterinadzyubak197 Месяц назад

Thank you everyone for your replies and well wishes. I got my answers today, as well as a DnC procedure. In my hospital they only offer medication option if the fetus is under 10 weeks of age. I was well beyond that at almost 13 weeks. The wait and see approach is an option but as I was already two weeks past the time when my baby passed and nothing much was changing, while I myself was rather uncomfortable, they thought the surgical route was best. Usually they strongly recommend it if three weeks have elapsed and there was no spontaneous clearance of the uterus as chances of infection and other complications go up while the fetus may be retained for a very long time yet. Be well, mamas.

I never wanted kids, and when i felt my body actively terminating the pregnancy, and the fall out of it, the cramps, the blood, the chunks of tissue that passes it alarming and if i hadnt seen the tissue chunks as i went to the bathroom, i still wouldnt have known i was pregnant.

@jessicadecuir5622 11 дней назад

An interesting thing can happen in an ectopic pregnancy (a type of miscarriage that occurs when the fetus attempts to set up shop outside of the uterus) known as a lithopedion. Sometimes, the fetus is too large for the body to reabsorb, so the body calcifies it, turning it to stone. This process is similar to how a grain of sand becomes a pearl inside of an oyster. These pregnancies can go undetected for years. One case in Chile wasn’t detected for 50 years.

Information from a medical website: An embryo’s heart doesn’t start beating until about 22 days after fertilization. That’s a week after a missed period. As the video says, it’s very common that if the egg doesn’t implant properly, you usually aren’t even aware of that loss of a potential pregnancy (miscarriage).

I have delivered a baby boy December last year as part of our DR rotations and it warms my heart bringing an angel into this world and also assisting parents in making their pregnancy memorable. No mother should experience the pain of losing a child, and even though others might think having miscarriage is a taboo, I personally encourage pregnant mothers to fully express your concerns to your health provider and seek support if needed. Since miscarriage occurs during the first trimester of pregnancy (the most critical period btw), antenatal care or check-ups is a must. Ask questions, be receptive of them. Remember, pregnancy isn't just about the mother and child alone and tackling the issue of miscarriage doesn't have to be scary.

Well, humans, and especially politicians, can be incredibly shortsighted when it comes to achieving their goals.

And now, people are going to waste time on this.

I had 2 miscarriages between my 2 children. Possibly more because my husband and I tried to get pregnant for 4 years. One miscarriage was incomplete. The doctor gave me the option of medication or D&C, I chose D&C because I just wanted it to be over with. But a D&C is quite uncomfortable. My husband and I have 2 theories why I had miscarriages. My OBGYN sent what was vacuumed out of me to the pathology lab. The only useful information we got was that the fetus had type A blood. I have type O. Both my kids have type O. Maybe my body saw the type A blood as foreign. Second theory, both my pregnancies had some pretty bad complications, preeclampsia. One towards the end and after, the other only after. Maybe my body had some way of trying to save me by preventing pregnancy.

For your blood hypothesis that is very possible, and because of which it is very much not your fault, you couldn't control what blood type your fetus would have.

Our mother had a miscarriage between my older sister and myself. She told me once (I don’t remember under what circumstances). My older sister didn’t know until years later.

This is not just for women only. Men should also learn about this as this is a part of human body. The comments are testament to the failed education system that exists everywhere.

The point is that women carry babies, so miscarriages naturally affect us first. It's a shame that medical professionals are supporting delusions to be politically correct. PhD recipients...

My mother had a miscarriage to my to-be-younger-sister. I just learned about it many years later when I was old enough to understand and after we have my younger brother (suppose to be his older sister). I can still remember her sadness when she brought it up coz she's been praying to have a baby girl. I thank God she was alright after that and was able to conceive my brother and she is okay today. Things can not really turn out the way we hope to. I send my regards to all women who experienced it and may you overcome this saddening and painful experience.

Losing a child is so much worse, you cannot compare it to a miscarriage.

About 10-20% of known pregnancies end in miscarriage, also known as early pregnancy loss, before 20 weeks. However, the actual number is likely higher because many miscarriages occur before a person realizes they are pregnant. For example, bleeding around the time of a menstrual period, called a chemical pregnancy, can make it seem like a late period.
