Just that really. I was distressed, alone traumatised, shocked (I had no idea until I had the bleed from hell and realised it was 10 weeks since my last period) it knocked me for six, physically it took me about 2 days to recover, mentally alot longer. I was too ashamed to go to the docs at the time. Is this normal? Could it have been something else? I felt so guilty at the time I just drank through it and distracted myself. Now I have DC somehow it plays on my mind more.

Sad at you feeling too ashamed to seek help at the time. I've had 4 miscarriages and yes I have miscarried at home without seeing anyone, but I've been very aware of what was happening and been through the process before so not too scared. It must have been a horrible experience for you. Would it help to talk to someone about it as it's obviously still bothering you? The Miscarriage Association have a helpline where you can chat to someone, or can point you in the direction of a counsellor if that would help.
