Does this sound like I have had a miscarriage?

Really sorry if this is tmi!!

Didn't even know that I was pregnant. Started bleeding a few days ago after being a week or so late, thought I had just come on my period.

Yesterday evening I started getting cramping and it became really painful, it actually felt like early labour pains. Sorry if this is tmi but I stood up and felt a sudden gush and I was absolutly soaked with blood, it went through my pad, underwear and jeans. I rushed to the toilet and past a really big clot, I could feel it coming out. Had an old test in the drawer from we were ttc DD so did that and it was a very faint positive.

Still getting a lot of cramping and bleeding but no big clots like last night, just smaller ones. Its kind of just like a heavy period now.

Feel very strange today, very numb almost calm.

I think I just need somebody to comfirm what I already know, which is that I have had a miscarriage Sad

Sorry Memoo it does sound like a mc. Such crappy timing :( Hope you are ok.

Hi MeMoo

definately sounds like a mc... Exactly what happened to me. I have been bleeding on/off since October but 2 Saturdays ago had exactly what you mentioned. Two
huge clots and approx since a further 40-50 walnut sized ones (sorry tmi) had an emergency scan and showed an empty sac but retained product... My preg test was negative so must have lost a while ago (have had mmc before) being re-scanned in 4 weeks and if rest hasn't passed will need a scrape.

I have been bleeding now for 16 days straight altho light now and had been on/off since Oct.

Reckon I must have been quite far gone-what do you think?

Guess what......

I am on the Depo and haven't missed one so god knows how I conceived!

Sorry you are going thru this too.... X

Sorry you are going through this kkey Sad Have you been getting much pain? Its so awful that its been going on for so long.

I haven't phoned the doctor yet, can't bring myself to do it. Don't want to spoil Christmas for the DC. I have two older ones (10 and 11) and they really pick up on things.

I have felt really sick all afternoon, is that usual do you think?

It may just be the shock of it :( Please ring the Dr tomorrow Memoo and take care of yourself too x

Memoo-no pain except a tender tummy. Had no pain before either.

Sick feeling is hormonal but I would ring for doctors advice as retained products can produce infection, so best to get seen just incase. Most of mine should of passed-I'd really like to know how far I was, but guess I won't.
At the mo we are tying it in with me feeling very odd in august/sept.....
