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.

So sorry for your loss OP

GinAndGooseberries · 07/09/2024 00:59

Thank you. Realise now how much blood was losing and it seems obvious to me now I needed hospital. I just didn't want to be dramatic but realised it was 4 saturated nighttime pads in less than an hour plus loads of blood and huge clots that went in toilet and all over the floor too.

I just thought maybe that much was normal. Bled loads on way to a&e and on floor there. Gynae dr did exam and found parts of placenta in cervix so she manually removed these with long tweezer things which was horrible. But it stopped the hemorrhaging.

I've been allowed home with clear instructions to come back if gets heavy again. Delighted to be home as was told in a&e I wasn't going home and on gynae ward was nil by mouth due to heavy bleeding in prep for surgery.

Thank you all for being so kind. It was one of those exhausted couldn't think straight moments.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I hope there is happier news for you in the future. Get well soon.

I miscarried my first IVF baby - no scary bleeding but we had a week wait after finding no heartbeat. I'm so sorry for your loss. Do whatever you need to do to get through.

I think burying the baby in your garden is a lovely plan. I wish I'd thought to do the same x

I’m glad you’re home. Please look after yourself and take all the time you need ❤️

I had a MMC with our second, I could not believe what I lost! It’s quite unbelievable until you experience it.
So glad you went to hospital and got some help.
Hope you’re doing as well as can be expected. Please look after yourself and take some time to process everything. Thinking of you x

Lilacrose27 · 07/09/2024 19:27

I am so sorry that you’re having to go through this it’s awful.

I miscarried over Christmas in 2023 and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

please be kind and gentle with yourself and know that it wasn’t your fault (I say this because I constantly blamed myself) make sure you rest too.

The hospital is the best place to be so that you can make sure that everything is okay and that you are safe.

sending lots of love.

UhHuhHuH · 07/09/2024 19:32

Sorry so OP.

I’m glad you were well looked after and are now at home.

Take care of yourself, mentality and physically.

spiderlight · 07/09/2024 22:27

Glad you're home now, and that your little one will be able to stay in your garden. We did the same with ours. It felt right - still does.

MrsPadhd · 07/09/2024 22:38

Wishing you well.
