Fourth miscarriage?

God I could use a handhold right now. I've woken up to brownish red blood. I'm 9 weeks pg and I lost the last three - at 6 weeks, mmc at 12 weeks (baby died at 9), then 5 weeks loss.
I was starting to think it would be ok this time (had my head in the sand?) and now Im wondering why the hell I thought it would be any different.
Epu have refused to see me so far, as I didn't have pain or bleeding but I guess I'll be heading there today. I'm so angry.
My DH is still asleep upstairs, I'm going to have to tell him I'm bleeding again Sad

Oh,Mum how frightening for you. I myself had 3 miscs but With the 2 successful pregnancies that I had, I had a brown/red loss with both of them so it doesn't necessarily mean the worst.

I was lucky though in that the EPAU scanned me regularly given my history. What time do EPU open?

Flowers not sure what to say. It's possible it's all ok. I had a slight bleed after two mc so had a scan. Dd2 was fine and is laying asleep next to me.

Try to stay positive until you can get to the epu.

Thanks ladies, I'm going to head to my gp to be referred to epu so hopefully can be seen this morning. I'm trying to think positive now. I also bled lightly with my first, and only successful pg, so fingers crossed.

I was originally offered a scan tomorrow morning but they've phoned back as they had a cancellation, so scan will be at 3pm today. Now I just have to wait.

I'm utterly gobsmacked, there was a heartbeat and baby measures about 9 weeks.
I've been getting loads of cramps this afternoon so I wasn't expecting that at all, but the bleeding has slowed down and the sonographer said everything looked good. I'm crying with relief.

Thank you all so much for your support, you have no idea how much it means to me Flowers

Oh excellent news Mumma! I was physically sick after having red/brown discharge in my 3rd pregnancy after 2MC. After a few hairy weeks this pregnancy is going strong. So pleased for you!

WendyTorrance · 20/10/2015 16:49

That's brilliant Mum! Congratulations! I'm so pleased for you.

Hopefully you'll have an easy pregnancy from now Flowers
