As detailed above I'm having a MC and would like some hopefully positive stories about going through the natural MC method.
Had a MC at 13w earlier this yr after the baby was diagnosed with a fatal foetal abnormality. I had an ERPC a few days later and didn't have any bleeding before.
This pregnancy I had a scan at 7w exactly that showed an 18mm empty sac so anembryonic pregnancy was diagnosed (scan scheduled for one week later to confirm).
That scan is tomorrow and the plan was to schedule ERPC for early next week as soon as the clinic is able to do it. However I've started bleeding today and I'm thinking that the miscarriage will probably happen naturally before next week.
I'm hosting Christmas and for various reasons REALLY REALLY don't want my family to know about this MC.
Does anyone have any positive stories about managing a MC ok at home? The sac is small for 7 weeks and no embryo present so am I being daft by hoping for something like a very heavy period??
I've stocked up on painkillers and maxi towels and we have an ensuite so I can have privacy. Do you think saying I've got a dodgy stomach would cut it as an excuse??
Sorry this is so long and I know I don't sound emotional about it but it's been a long year and I just knew this pregnancy wasn't right from the start so I've done my grieving
