Hi, all.
I'm sorry if this is upsetting.
I began bleeding at roughly 11 weeks and got the news on Friday morning that they couldn't find my baby's heartbeat. There were questions around proper growth for some time and apparently he looked more like a 6 week baby than almost 12.
I have left things to happen naturally and have had bright red bleeding for several days, contraction-like cramps, and last night passed a clot of tissue about 1.5 cm across. All my symptoms have gone, no sickness, no cravings, breasts still sore but going back to normal.
Is this all I can expect? Or can I expect things to get worse? I am not sure the baby was big enough for a lot of blood and clots but I expected more than this.
I am sorry if this sounds awful and morbid, but I need to know. I am working in retail and I am never going to get time off so close to Xmas, so I feel a bit desperate. If I could have had medical management, I would have but now I don't really know what to do for the best.
