Can you be pregnant , misscarry and not know it, and be impregnated later without knowing your original fetus was replaced by a new fetus. Has this ever happened.

It could only happen if you don't notice a week or so of heavy bleeding, then you end up going several weeks late in the second pregnancy, get induced, and have a baby who is extremely premature. How likely do you think that is to happen?

If you are going for regular checkups, the doctor would be able to quickly tell if the pregnancy was still viable or not. Some miscarriages are missed, but are caught at some stage and the patient is sent to have a D&C if the body does not sort things out itself. Of course, after any miscarriage, it is possible to get pregnant again, but obviously, the gestational age of the fetus (determinable by your OBGYN) would be the tale tale sign of when pregnancy occurred - it would be less mature than the original pregnancy.
What is possible is that a woman could carry twins (or other multiples) and lose one or more baby but the other(s) survive and continue in the pregnancy.

Ok, first of all you need to know the definition of a fetus. It is 10 weeks gestation and beyond. So if you have a fetus and you miscarry, you can't possibly go without noticing that you're in incredible pain and bleeding. You also need to go to the hospital afterwards for a D&C in case the placenta is still attached and causing you to bleed out.
Second, you'd need to have a recular menstural period to begin the cycle again and then ovulate and have sex at the right time, and then that fertilized egg needs to implant successfully. This usually doesn't happen immediately after a miscarriage, for many factors.

Ok, so let me get this right. Yes the person can miscarry and not know, she may think it's a normal period, she would bleed like a normal menstrual circle. If you mean could she get pregnant at a later time, the answer is also yes, and the woman would think that it's the same pregnancy. It has happened, but these are things that you never hear about. It's a one in a thousand chance that it can and will happen to the next person. The way you phrased your sentence is does sound like something from the movies...but yes these things do happen!!!!

Maybe back it the day. But I highly doubt it. Even if the fetus is only a couple of days old, and you miscarry, the body still have to get rid of the fetus before you can produce another egg. And if the fetus is big enough the body won't pass it, and a doctor will have to remove it.

by way of fact all sperm are ability infants. All eggs are too. whilst they meet, they do no longer on the instant become a 'little one'. they have the aptitude to become a life which could exist separate than the mummy. even with the incontrovertible fact that, they are actually not yet. you're taking a fetus at a million month out of the womb, and it won't proceed to exist. It demands the mummy, it quite is particularly area of her nonetheless. rapid forward 8 months, and it will stay! it quite is a individual entity which could exist without a bunch. Dare I say.. it quite is a little one!

No. The fetus is connected to the uterus pretty securely through the placenta. There are blood vessels to nourish the fetus. I'm not sure if it could be done or not, but it would be major surgery if it could.
