Went in for a scan this morning, 9 weeks today, bean measured 6 weeks and no heartbeat. Was booked in for repeat scan next Friday to check (cause a grown woman can't possibly know her blooming dates Hmm ) they didn't give me any info or advice on what to expect or what to do, who to call, stay at home, come into hospital, nothing.

I had a little bleeding brown and red last few days and now it's gone heavier and numerous large clots coming away. No pain as yet. have popped a couple of codeine, put on large thick pad, comfy leggings, sorted out my hot water bottle, had a bit to eat and got comfy with duvet on sofa.

What can I expect? I don't want my baby to go down the toilet Sad

Hello, Foof here x

Just wanted to bookend this thread for those who may come across it months or even years later, I know it annoyed me when I was frantically googling that hardly anyone went back to say how things turned out.

I bled like a period for a week and spotted for another 2 weeks and now 38 days (5.5weeks almost) since I miscarried, I got AF this morning :)

The last two weeks I was having very strong pregnancy symptoms and I can only put this down to the first cycle after a mc being not so affectionately called the WHAT THE FUCK cycle (WTF)! It wasn't something I was expecting and hadn't really read much about what first periods are like, or the run up to them!

Hi Foof/Daisy

Thank you for updating, somehow I missed posting on your thread before, if so, I'm very sorry for what you've been through. Glad your AF has arrived - less limbo. The WTF cycle Grin how true! I think that we are the same age and know what you mean about wanting to give your husband a child but being uncertain.
