I’ve lots of blood this morning, not just when I wipe but on my underwear. I haven’t any pains but it but I feel it’s too much blood for things to be ok. Typical, the day before my scan and I’ll probably go in for them to say it’s all over. What’s wrong with my body!!!! 😭

ChloeN · 08/10/2022 07:54

@Luna57 oh lovely😞 so sorry to hear that, I know you’re definitely not okay but I’m sending lots of love❤️

HalWin2221 · 08/10/2022 08:03

@Luna57 i know there is nothing none of us can say, but know that we are all here with you! ❤️

RaliaMusca · 08/10/2022 08:56

Oh @Luna57 , I'm so sorry to hear. I'll keep all my fingers crossed that it's still ok. We're here for you

LuckyMoonstone · 08/10/2022 09:00

@Luna57 oh god I’m so sorry 😢 we’re all here for you if it’s not good news, but still hoping for the best x

LuckyMoonstone · 08/10/2022 09:04

My last bloods on Saturday were something like 79 hcg, this is my test this morning, do you think the line would be darker if my hcg was still around that level? Or does that look about right? I was hoping there would be barely anything there. My opks are still coming up high so it’s picking up the hormones more than the PT is

Thank you all for your support. The bleed this morning was like what you’d expect from a period. 2 hours on its tailed off a bit but not as much as I’d like it’s still very much there. It’s red this time not the brown discharge I was having. Do you think this could be a progesterone problem?

HalWin2221 · 08/10/2022 09:15

@Luna57 if you think it could be it might be worth ring EPU and seeing if they’ll see you sooner & prescribe it? 🤞🏽

@RaliaMusca how did your blood test go? 🤞🏽

bunnykins123 · 08/10/2022 09:17

@mummatara I hope you're doing okay and the pains have been bearable 💕

@Luna57 oh no! I'm so sorry to hear your bleeding. Hopefully it's nothing significant 🤞 at least the scan tomorrow will give you a better idea of what's happening. I hope you're okay!

@LuckyMoonstone that defo looks fainter to me! Did you do any tests with easy@home for this pregnancy? When are your follow up blood tests?

bunnykins123 · 08/10/2022 09:19

@Luna57 I guess at this stage it could be progesterone, a natural miscarriage or a thing called a haemetoma (I think that's what it's called!) which is where you get a blood clot in the uterus when you're pregnant and it causes period-like bleeding.

LuckyMoonstone · 08/10/2022 09:27

@bunnykins123 no I was doing all FRERs before so I’ve got nothing to compare this to!

bunnykins123 · 08/10/2022 09:32

@LuckyMoonstone is it completely dry? I have some easy@homes from my last pregnancy where it was around 39 that I can share for comparison?

mummatara · 08/10/2022 09:33

@MrsCristianoX yes I take R- lipoic acid and so does DH

@Luna57 big hugs lovely 💕 I hope it turns out to be nothing for you could just be a clot?

@bunnykins123 honestly they have been fine I haven't even taken any pain killers. I'm still yet to pass any tissue and bleeding has practically stopped since yesterday afternoon 🤦🏼‍♀️ if it doesn't get heavier again in a few days I might ring the EPU and see what they have to say. I was wondering if it might get reabsorbed but I honestly don't know if it would since it carried on growing until about 9 weeks I reckon. The scan I had at 10 and 11 weeks it wasn't growing anymore so that's probably a significant amount of tissue 🤷🏼‍♀️

Mariabombia · 08/10/2022 09:44

Oh no @Luna57 , praying everything's okay for you love! Are you going to call epu and ask to be seen today? If you've not got any pain that's a good sign xx

calimc83 · 08/10/2022 10:10

@Luna57 oh gosh lovely. What a stress. Thinking of you xxx

Indianna2006 · 08/10/2022 10:11

@Luna57 oh no sorry to hear that. Any bright red bleeding is just not what you wanna see is it. It could still all be fine though hun. What happened with your loss was that spontaneous. If so progesterone possibly worth a go. Good job your being seen tomorrow as it is

@mummatara oh hun bless you. Frustrating isn’t it. It’s hard to know isn’t it. As ppl seem different. Was yours about an empty sac measuring 6 weeks ish. I measured about 6 weeks. But obv it had the baby in. But I mean I bled a lot but it was medically managed so you can bleed more with that. But I mean I was like flooding maxi pads. Every hours. I couldn’t believe I still had retained tissue after how much I’d lost. But we’re all different. Do you have any sort of follow up scan for them to conclude?

@LuckyMoonstone no idea on those easy @ home tests as I’ve never used tbem. So don’t know how dark they go quickly. Normally cheap ICs takes ages to go dark. But there all diff aren’t they. So can’t be much use to you there sorry.

LuckyMoonstone · 08/10/2022 10:17

@bunnykins123 yeah I let it dry. Yeah I’ll have a look if you don’t mind.
Remember guys we want the tests to be lighter not darker, we are very anti hcg in this strange case 🤣

Luna57 · 08/10/2022 10:19

@Mariabombia i don’t think they’d see me today, I’d just like to rest today and then go tomorrow to see what the craic is. I’m hoping it’s a wee benign bleed. I’ve now tinted cm it’s not the scary red bleed anymore I’m too scared to test incase it’s faint and then I’ll def know what’s coming next. I never even had any bleeding or anything with ds you’d think my uterus would know the score as it’s done it before so will stretch with ease instead of bleeding and putting the fear into me

Luna57 · 08/10/2022 10:22

@LuckyMoonstone that line looks like it’s maybe a 10dpo. That’s how faint my line got on those tests before mc

mummatara · 08/10/2022 10:25

@Indianna2006 they didn't say how many weeks it measured but at last scan it was 21mm which is what it was the week before. Though at my private scan they measured it as 30mm so it obv had shrunk. There was no yolk sac or baby seen at all it's always just been a gestational sac. No they just told me to ring in 3 weeks if I'm still testing positive. It's so hard to know because obv 21mm isn't big but I would of thought even if it had broken down I would still see clots or something this is just a normal period bleed so far

Indianna2006 · 08/10/2022 10:39

@mummatara okay I just looked up my details and my dad measured about 24mm at about 7 weeks. But the fetus was measuring 6 inside. My dad had them shrunk over the course of a week as well and began to break down. So had the fetus tbh.
but yeh I still got a lot. And what I would call actually tissue and products. I never actually looked. But you could hear it sounded like fish guts going into the toilet. Sorry graphic I know.
but I do think medical tablets can make you bleed more. But that same amount of product would of still needed to come out I imagine. Couldn’t believe how much it seems like for so early tbh. As my other loss I was measuring 13 weeks but I actually had to push the sac out for that. So bit different.

how long has it been now seen you seen EPu? Did they mean ring 3 weeks after you mc or 3 weeks after they’d seen you? Maybe wait out few more days. Do you feel well?
after I’d done my tablets. I still didn’t feel quite right in that area. Like when I laughed or cough I would get an uncomfy pain in my uterus cervix area. An it’s cos I had retained tissue. I could tell it wasn’t right an over if that makes sense.

Indianna2006 · 08/10/2022 10:40

Clearly I can’t type **sac not dad 🙈🙈

ChloeN · 08/10/2022 10:42

@mummatara my mmc bleeding was quite light I’d say, literally like a a period then one day the tissue come out with a couple of clots then that was it. Mine had grown to 7 weeks so I expected more tissue and blood but when I went to the scan it had all gone. It’s so weird how different people bleed different amounts

mummatara · 08/10/2022 11:18

@Indianna2006 😂 my auto correct makes some questionable word choices too 🤦🏼‍♀️ I think they meant ring 3 weeks after the MC starts or ends I'm not sure which really but I'm guessing ends. it will be 2 weeks Tuesday since I last saw them. I'm not worried as I do feel perfectly fine in myself it just feels like a normal period with a bit more cramping than I'm used to it just seems so odd.

@ChloeN thanks lovely it's really interesting seeing how different everyone's experience is. Guess I just have to wait it out

lovenaps · 08/10/2022 11:50

@Luna57 so sorry ❤😞
