Why does my stomach hurt every morning when I wake up? I am a 26 year old male, 245lbs and approximately 6'1 tall. I am currently taking 7.5mg of coumadin per day and 10mg of Aciphex. I do not eat well normally. In fact, because I work second shift, I often find myself eating dinner as late as 12:00am. I then go to sleep around 2:00am and every morning when I wake up, I am very nauseous and my stomach hurts very badly. I do not have the urge to make a bowel movement, it is just a sharp pain in my lower abdominal area.
A miscarriage is a loss of pregnancy during the first 20 weeks. Though miscarriage occurs in about half of all pregnancies, only 10% of pregnancies are known and most occur during the first 13 weeks.
In general, however, if the hCG levels are dropping in the first trimester, this probably a sign of impending miscarriage. On the other hand, slow-rising hCG levels that do not double every two or three days in early pregnancy can be a sign of problems but can also result in a normal pregnancy.
