Posting here for quickness. Please delete if you want when I have answer. Please tell me how many pads I need to go to a and e? I've forgotten.

Gestational sac out with baby inside.

Now large clots and heavy bleeding. On pad 3 in half an hour with lots of clots.

Not sure if just leave an hour and see if settles.

Wasn't bleeding much before sac came out. Think it's all the lining coming now.

Epas shut and keen to avoid emergency department on a Friday night if I can.

How far along are you OP? Can someone take you to the hospital? I too would be going to A&E with that degree of bleeding.
Have you had any MC's before? Sorry if TMI, but if you've had 2 before, I'd take the products with you and ask for genetic testing. Flowers

Please go to A and E. I ended up in a very bad way after a similar MC and (sorry to be scary), it’s the only time in my life I genuinely thought I wasn’t going to make it. My partner at the time walked into quite a scene in our bathroom and made me go to the hospital. Didn’t need an intervention in the end but when I told the doctor I was being dramatic thinking I was going to die, they very seriously told me that it could have easily gone down a bad route and it’s always best to get checked.

Oh heavens so sorry OP. Don’t sit it out, go to hospital now or you will feel so weak and potentially collapse. How far gone were you?
Horrible as it sounds, take whatever you have passed with you so doctors can check it has all come out.

Sending best wishes to you.

This happened to me at the end of July.

You need to phone the hospital, you could potentially haemorrhage.

My bleeding was very much like you described and I needed additional intervention, but I called my EPU ward and so had no wait in A and E.

BTW I'm a midwife and I've had a lot of miscarriages myself.

TheShellBeach · 06/09/2024 19:24

So sorry.
You do need an ambulance with that degree of bleeding.

It's one pad soaked an hour which is a lot less than you're passing.
I'd dial 999.

Melodysmum12 · 06/09/2024 19:24

I’d be panicking as I know nothing about miscarriage so I’d go anyway. Sorry xx
