How long did miscarriage last for you?

Hi all.

I’m currently miscarrying and alongside finding the emotional side of things awful I’m really struggling physically. I’ve been bleeding for 4 days straight passing large clots every day and in lots of pain that painkillers aren’t touching. I’ve seen posts of people having one episode of passing blood and clots lasting a few hours to a day. Is that typical? Or is days normal?

Just looking for a bit of light at the end of the tunnel.

Hi @itseasybeingcheesy

So sorry for your loss- I mc at 10 weeks 2 and a half weeks ago, I had heavy bleeding for about 2 days and then it settled- I'm still bleeding now however it's more like a light period now...hoping it will stop soon....

Keep dosed up on pain killers, lots of comfort foods, tlc and a hot water bottle xx

I'm really sorry to hear about your loss OP. It's just so sad and heart breaking.

My personal experience is I started with brown discharge on and off over a period of 6 days. Then some light on off bleeding started with clots passing for 3 days, then I had one massive episode on Monday night this week that lasted 4 hours which was the most excruciatingly painful experience of my life. If you're in a lot of pain but cam move about I'd suggest gettting yourself down to A&E - unfortunately I was in so much agony (felt like my insides were being ripped out) the thought of being moved filled me woth absolute dread so when DH wanted to call for an ambulance I told him not to.

I hope your mc passes as quickly as possible and you can get some pain relief.

I’m so sorry.

I’ve had 2, both at 7 weeks. First was 3 days in bed and then another week of light bleeding with the sac passing day 1 (natural ms) Second was a week with the sac passing on day 4 (medically assisted mc).
