I had a miscarriage 4 months ago. I was 13weeks and 6 days. I had bleeding that would come and go through out the pregnancy. Every time I had an ultra sound everything was developing, but developing slowly. But, I knew I ovulated later than they thought so that didn't surprise me. The last ultra sound I seen the baby's heartbeat and everything. The bleeding returned again at almost 14 weeks. When I went in they said the baby died around 7 weeks. Besides the bleeding that had came and went all throughout my pregnancy, I had not other indications anything was wrong. I had just went for my first prenatal appointment and the Dr. said I was doing great. The baby was dead then. You can't always tell.

Generally, the cramping of miscarriage is of greater severity than even menstrual cramps. They tend to come in waves, accompanied by an increase in blood loss. Also, what you lose may be more solid than is usual in a period. Bleeding and the cramping will increase over a period of time.

When do you start getting cramps when your fixing to start your period?

Although menstrual cramps are common, they are not a normal part of healthy menstruation - as such there is nothing to say that you will get cramps at all,and if you do experience cramps know that they are preventable. When you could get cramps depends on your body, typically they can start as early as a week to two weeks before menstruation.


How do you you know your having cramps from your period?

It is quite difficult to differentiate the etiology (cause) of cramps by mere history. However, cramps that occur around the period time are most likely related to and/or caused by the period. You may also experience menstrual-type cramps when ovulating, especially if you consistently ovulate from the same side. Tell your Doc if it is sever enough to not be relieved by some Acetominophen , or if you have nausea and/or other symptoms as well.
