Please help - I've never been pregnant/miscarried before and I live in the Middle East atm so medical care is very different.
Had a 12 week scan yesterday which showed I am miscarrying and they said it showed 'remnants' of my pregnancy (scan at 9 weeks showed 5+ weeks sac which had grown from the week before and no heartbeat). I was told to go home and if I bleed too much or get a fever then I'm to go back to hospital. They made me an appointment on 18th Feb (nearly 7 weeks away) with a doctor to discuss my medical needs for getting pregnant in the future (I have retroverted, bicorniate uterus, a fibroid and a couple of overian cysts they found!)
I've not had much pain. I had one contraction type pain last night and passed a large, jellyish rugby ball shaped thing with bits inside but I didn't look too closely as I assumed I wouldn't like what I saw. Then this morning another contraction type pain and passed another mass. This one was whitish/grey and felt fairly solid. It was the size of a very large grape. Again, I could have investigated further but I was scared of what I'd see.
Pain is light, bleeding is light.
I have two questions if that's ok...
- Is it ok to just assume everything will come out or do you normally get a scan/doctors appointment to check? I've only had one initial doctors appointment throughout the pregnancy, they just kept sending me for scans and telling me to come back for another (was hard to see as I have retroverted, bicorniate uterus and sac was in left horn) . I've had no bloods taken.
- Why did I pass two masses? Is this normal?
It's so hard when you don't speak the language or know what to expect!
