Hi ladies,
Thank you to all who have helped me get through this horrible weekend. This is my first MC and I'm not sure if I should be concerned. I thought I was seven weeks, the spotting started on Friday afternoon and bleeding began Saturday, Sunday ( yesterday) afternoon I felt cramps and pain and I think I passed the sac ( sorry if TMI) it was all very upsetting but I couldn't look. Today the bleeding has really slowed down and I'm getting very mild period pain, has anyone else had this? I never had a scan so I could have stopped growing at an early stage. My breasts still feel funny which is upsetting. I've read your experiences so maybe I should just count my blessings that it's all been so quick but part of me is concerned. Xx

So sorry to hear you are going through this, it's a horrible time.

I MC carried on Thursday. Started on Wednesday with just brown spotting, and that carried on until Thursday night, when for about 2 hours it was gushing out, and I passed several clots, including the sac. And then it all slowed right down. The 12 hours after the 2 hours gushing I was barely spotting, I too had no idea if I'd passed the sac or not, and didn't know if that was it all over with. I

I went onto have surgery anyway on the Friday morning, as I had a scan and they said the sac had gone, but there was still a lot of "stuff" left.

I would try and get a scan ASAP, more than anything just so you knew what is happening. Not knowing wether or not I had passed the sac was awful, and I really feel for you.

I and still spotting now, even after the surgery, but it is very light, and will
Hopefully end soon. Sorry if that's not much help, it's so hard when you want a definitive answer to what is going on Sad

No, it is helpful thank you, Friday seems so long away but apparently that's the first available appointment, will probably have to wait for a D&C. It's just dragging it out x

I will be thinking if you. Its a very emotional time and hopefully your body has now done the hard work. Rest lots and look after yourself, s hot water bottle really helped me, and lots of crap films and chocolate.

3under4 After I passed the sac my bleeding slowed down almost to spotting but I still had cramps too. Yesterday after my scan I passed more of it (surprised there was more actually) and then now it's like a normal period with very slight cramping.

I'm guessing the remainder could have been blocking the blood flow? Hope they can tell you more after your scan.

Hello, this is my first time writing on here . Found out I was pregnant on the13/07/15, my period was due the 17/07/15 when it didn't arrive I did another test and was positive, I then had severe cramping and lower back pain early hours of 18/07/15 and had started to spot all day, then nothing. Spoke to doc and as symptoms have all gone thinks I've lost it again(will be third one) Only thing is since yesterday 23/07/15 I'm cramping really bad again and bad lower back pain. Can anyone help please?
