Miscarriage started on Monday, still in lots of pain. Normal or not?

I miscarried on Monday at 5 weeks 6 days - scan on Tuesday confirmed the baby was gone and all that was left was my womb lining. However, I have been in a lot of pain since, so much so that I had to start taking cocodamol. If I take it every 4 hours I am ok but as soon as it starts to wear off I am in pain again. I'm worried this is not normal. What do you all think? The bleeding is heavy but not abnormally so.

Yes this was normal for me too. I had severe pain the whole time I was bleeding and was taking strong pain killers. A hot water bottle helped too and baths. I also had pain for about a week after the bleeding stopped too. Give yourself time to rest xx

We had a similar experience with miscarriage at 8 weeks. The pain and misery lasted for 5-7 weeks. It will get better in time. I am sorry for your loss.
See your doctor about the pain regardless.
