Hi all,
Been reading Mumsnet for a while, but this is my first post. Unfortunately not a happy one.
I'm 43, met my partner in crime late in life and have been trying to conceive since 2018 (no kids). Had a chemical pregnancy in January that year, and a second one in October that year. Then a 3rd one in March last year. Had positive tests with all of them, but hcg did not raise properly and I miscarried all around 4-4.5 weeks. All these felt like heavy and crampy periods.
Found out I was pregnant again end of February. This time it took and we had a heartbeat though a little slow and growth was a little behind my dates as well. An added complication was a large hematoma, so bled for weeks. Was told right away it can go either way. Went for a scan around 8.5-9 weeks and the baby had died. Missed miscarriage, probably before week 7.
Had a MVA on 10 April, was told they got everything. Bleeding did not stop and in a few days' time had very bad pain/cramping and passed a 1.5cm lump of tissue at home in the shower about a week after the procedure. Looked like pregnancy tissue. Had a scan after and was told all clean though still some blood that needs to come out.
It is now nearly 4 weeks since the procedure and 3 weeks since I expelled the tissue. Last weekend Clearblue still showed 1-2 weeks pregnant. I haven't bled for over a week, but still getting a mix of brown and yellow discharge, mostly when I wipe (TMI, sorry!). No abdominal pain, no smell. A little sore down there, might be thrush.
Question: Is the old blood tinged discharge normal after that time? When is this supposed to stop? I find it tough to move on whilst this is going on. Thank you in advance for your comments!
