This is the first time Ive posted here... I almost posted several days ago in the First Trimester section, but was hesitant - apparently for good reasoning 
I am 22 years old and this was my first pregnancy with my boyfriend of 3.5 years. It caught us by surprise, but the idea grew on us quickly, and we both became super excited about being first time parents.
I took my first HPT when
was 11 days late, and tada = 
Had some upper abdominal cramping with a little brown discharge (only when i wiped). When I layed down, the cramping subsided, so I took it easy.
Next day I felt much better.
Around 6.5 weeks I still hadnt been to a doc, so I got another test as I was extremely paranoid. Tada =
Two days to follow, I was at work (office position) and after a visit to the restroom, there was a fair amount of blood. I immediately went to ER, waited about an hour. They took a urine sample and blood test. Eventually I was put into a room & into a Johnny gown, by this time my boyfriend finally arrived. They wheeled me off for an transvaginal ultrasound. Once brought back to my room, they made my bf leave the room, and a doc and nurse did a pelvic exam. Upon finishing he told me there was bleeding (blood was all on the end of the thing they stuck in me to take a look - cant remember what its called) but that my cervix was closed. I was around 6-7 weeks (i am certain) and the doc said my hcg levels were around 4-5 weeks, so to come back in 48 hours for more tests.
I never went back after 48 hours for the tests as my med insurance was cancelled, and didnt want to have a bill through the roof.
The bleeding continued, than last night, with the most excruciating cramps Ive ever experienced in my life, Im pretty sure I passed the sac. Im still quite crampy, with a somewhat heavier AF... the discharge is sorta goopy which from what Ive read is normal, but I still feel like total crap.
I really cant believe this happened.
My mum passed away just over a year ago, suddenly, and now this... and it honestly feels like this ginormous lump Im never going to be able to get over. What was more ironic was that as soon as I told a friend I was expecting, she says "Boy, your mum sure works fast"... at the time I thought it was so sweet... now, it just really hurts. To have received such an amazing blessing than to have it ripped from you so suddenly... I really didnt expect to hurt this much... I think Ive cried more over this compared to when my mum passed, its ridiculous.
At this point, Im just hoping my m/c will continue as natural. As I imagine every woman feels upon such an event happening, I dont feel like going to the hospital, waiting for hours upon hours in discomfort.
Anyone happen to know when the cramping will subside?
I really just cant wait for this to be over.
