Possibly a MMC - what now?

[kirinm]

I'm only just over 5 weeks. On Friday I had some bleeding. I was scanned and an due to be rescanned on Tuesday. The initial bleeding was red and didn't last long and I've had brown spotting for the last 2 days. My pregnancy symptoms are disappearing though and I know in my heart that things are over.

I've had multiple miscarriages before. Most have been natural and I've started bleeding without any input. I had a mmc at 11 weeks where the baby had died at 10 weeks and I had an ERPC.

If I don't spontaneously miscarry soonish what happens? Is 5 weeks too early for an ERPC? I'll be honest, for self preservation reasons, if I am miscarrying, the sooner it's over the better for my mental health. I did not cope well after my last MMC and I really don't want to be stuck in limbo for days / weeks.

I'm so sorry to hear about what your going through its the saddest feeling in the world.

I'm pregnant but I think I'm going through a similar situation to yourself right now. I know it doesn't help but I wanted to send my love and best wishes for you to find the strength to get through the next few days. I have a rescan on Tuesday as well and im1 half dreading it and half wishing it would hurry up already so I can get this awful limbo over with. Supporting you from a far hun and sending my best xxx

@Difficulttimes17 thank you for your message. The limbo is the hardest part. I hope Tuesday goes well for you x

On weds (10w5d) whilst at work I passed blood in my wee... I went straight to the hospital where I was then sent home and had to wait for a scan appointment which thankfully came the next day. A part of me was scared as I thought the worst was happening. And another part of me was excited that I would be seeing my baby for the first time! 💖💙 The S scanned me and told me that normally at 10 weeks + 6 days they should see a baby with a heartbeat but they couldn’t see anything. All they saw on my scan was the Pregancy Sac filled with Fluid... but no baby 😔 I went for a second scan later that day as they told me the first scan was inconclusive, and they confirmed my worst fears. We have had a failed pregnancy 😔😔 I feel so confused where is my baby? I feel like I wasn’t told enough and I just don’t understand! I feel so broken and empty. The minute your body is pregnant your body changes and I felt such a love for my unborn baby. And now I feel so empty.

On Friday morning I passed clots and since I have been in so much pain physically mentally and emotionally I feel exhausted and sad 😔
