Hi everyone,
So I should be 7+6 based on my lmp. However on Wednesday I had some spotting (red when I wiped occasionally, nothing on a pad). I phoned my GP (as I’d not yet seen the midwife), and he referred me to EPAU.
I visited the EPAU on Thursday morning where they am did a transvaginal scan.
The sonographer could see a sac, yolk sac and fetal pole measuring 3.5mm but no heartbeat. She dated me at ‘around 6 weeks’ where I thought I was 7+3. I could have ovulated slightly later though as I didn’t track it.
I have had light bleeding ever since it began on Wednesday. But only occasionally on wiping. And with occasional cramps, not as bad as af.
The EPAU booked to see me again on New Year’s Eve (12 days after the last scan) so I still have another 8 days to wait for that scan which is utter torture. They were confident that by then we would have a definite answer and either the pregnancy will have progressed, or it will look the same and therefore not be viable, or I might miscarry between then and the scan.
I was given a 24hour number to call if anything got worse.
Today I had cramping probably as bad as regular af cramps, and when I went to the toilet after wiping there was a significant amount of red blood on the tissue and a few very small clots, much smaller than my little finger nail.
The cramps almost immediately died down.
I was fairly confident I would miscarry following the last scan, but I don’t know whether I have bled enough and passed enough clots for it to be ‘done’.
Is it worth contacting the EPAU to see if they can scan me sooner than New Year’s Eve?
It feels awful being in limbo and I just want confirmation that the miscarriage is complete.
I have a photo of what I just passed but don’t want to gross everyone out!
Thank you for reading and I’m so sorry to anyone going through similar xxx
