Miscarriage started, what should do.....stay home or go to the hospital??

[DitsyDonkey]

So after three to four days of spotting I am starting to bleed bright red fresh blood and large clots. I'm only experiencing AF type cramps so far.

I was in the hospital Saturday and Monday and had scans which he baby was only measuring six weeks (I'm 8) and no heart beat. So I don't really want to go back not th hospital as I think it is pretty obvious what is happening and don't need another scan.

But I am frightened that it is going to get unbearably painful as I'm not good with pain and only have paracetamol and can't get anything else now as its late and I'm in rural Ireland.

The gp and hospital told me to go in immediately if I got heavy bleeding and or cramps, but I don't want to!

Advice please. What should I do also how long until the pain gets really bad. How long after heavy bleeding starts will sac pass, is this really painful?

I’m miscarrying and I’m scared. I miscarried at 5 weeks at the end of Sep and so was obviously worried about it happening again a second time around. I’m so sad. I feel like I’m too afraid to ever try again and I keep blaming myself. I’m 38 and feel like perhaps it’s not meant to be. Is it normal to feel so many emotions? I’m sad, angry, resentful.

@MAJKER30 I’m so sorry you are having your second mc. It is not your fault and it is nothing you have done. I had two mc when I was 40 and blamed the bath water being too warm, the beef being too rare and so many other things but looking back I know it was “just one of those things”. As sad as it is mc’s are very common and it is very often just bad luck.

My dh wasn’t keen to keep trying where as I felt that I needed to keep going till I got there. I had my little boy when I was 42.

Look after your self. Your emotions are normal. Your hormones will be all over the place. I hope you have people to take care off you for now.

@VividImagination When I hear other people’s stories, it gives me some comfort, so I thank you. I will stay positive and will hopefully one day have the baby I’ve dreamt of for so long.

Happy New Year to you x
