Anyone not sure if they miscarried?

Sorry if this is a bit muddled.

Lately I keep thinking about this.

When my son was 8 weeks old I went to the toilet and I lost a large clot.

It was a bit bigger than a £2 coin and looked like a tiny placenta.

It was thick on one side with veins on the other and a membrane.

I took a pic and showed my GP who said it was retained placenta but never sent me for a scan or anything to check if there was anymore. That was the end of it.

Someone mentioned the other day that I'd never miscarried (high rate in family)

And I feel like I may have. But I never tested to see if I had HCG or anything.

I guess I feel sad that I'll never know if it was a loss and I have to choose to
A) Forget about it and possibly never acknowledge a baby I may have had
B) Say I've miscarried and be talking rubbish and feel like a fraud.

:(
