Answers:
many women have miscarriages without ever even knowing they are pregnant. you can bleed early or at your normal, there really isnt a definite answer. if this happened to you i am very sorry. all i can say is you will never really know either way. i read somewhere that when this kind of thing happens it is usually the best because the baby probably wouldnt have made it to birth and the devastation following a child you carried would be even worse.
sometimes when the egg is in the stages of implantation some women bleed (a little kinda like spotting) this doesnt mean she is having a miscarriage.

Technically, pregnancy cannot be determined indefinitely until the first day of a missed periond and even in that case not it can not be a definite result.
I was 14 weeks pregnant and started spotting. I felt a bit ill, so I wnet to the doctor. he sent me in for an ultra sound, where I got to look at my dead fetus.
Since I was working and couldn't afford to miss much work I agreed to a D and C, which is where they go in and clean out your uterus (embryo and all) so there is no infection. Doctors used to do this to treat endermetriosis also.
So, in my opinion, the number one sign that you MAY be suffering a miscarriage is bleeding. It usually takes days to slough out the embryo, but if it happens within 30 days of getting pregnant it is not likely the woman would even notice. At 14 weeks my embryo wasn't much, 2-3 inches. As it happenned I started crampng and hemoraging and was admitted to the hospital and had the D and C the next morning.
But if the pregnancy is only 5 days or so, I do not believe the embryo has even implanted. Any miscarriage that occurs before 8 weeks would probably seem just like another period. Or so I have been led to believe.
It was traumatic for me at the time. The doctor said it was probably for the best as it usually meant that the baby was not developing normally ... like that made me feel any better.
Sort of like this statistic: "One in six pregnancies ends in miscarriage."
It is not really a period that flusheds the embryo out, it is after birth, but since there is no placenta or fluid if it's that early in the pregnancy, it will seem just like another period. Usually you will have two periods that month. One for is the embryo being flushed, the next is for the new egg that wasn't fertilized.
All sorts of things have happenned though, so I am not sure if anyone will be able to answer this question with one solid this is how it happens answer.
I have had 2 beautiful chidren since, so the miscarriage doesn't seem very important anymore.
You would bleed immediatelly after you miscarried. Its often showed in movies.
