Think I've miscarried

[Sm0ky]

At 6 weeks I recently just had serious cramps and a lot of bleeding...like really thick dark blood...sorry if tmi.

I'm kind of clutching at straws here but I know deep down its probably the case.

I wasn't planning this baby and I was so stressed but wanted to keep her I kind of wished she'd go away but now my wish came true and I'm devastated.

I feel like if I'd been less stressed maybe this wouldn't have happened. I was just starting to be a little more hopeful and excited and now this...

Sorry just venting here as my boyfriend is the only one who knew and he doesn't really know what to say or think either. I think he's secretly relieved.

Hello,
I'm so sorry to hear about what you're going through. I'm going through something very similar. I started bleeding on Sunday evening and then had Monday and Tuesday of thick dark blood 😢. It wasn't particularly heavy but there was just less than a normal period that only lasted 2 days ish. I know it's all over. The thing with me is that I got pregnant in August this year and it wasn't expected and we kind of stressed about it a lot and then when I found out he had died at a private scan, I was completely devastated. I know your pain. This time, we got pregnant again - only a couple of months after the first miscarriage - and again, my other half was stressed a lot. Then after bleeding for 2 days I now feel awful and empty. Can't believe I've lost 2 babies and I've only been pregnant twice. Awful. All I can say is remember this feeling for next time and really appreciate the moment in the future. I'm now researching vitamins and things I can do to help next time so I'm trying to be proactive about it all. Sending hugs x I know how it feels x

It is horrible isn't it? Do look after yourself and book an appointment with your GP.

Im very sorry about both of you.

I only had one miscarriage years ago, and it was bloody awful in terms of difficult experiences at the time. However I clearly remember the doctor saying that your chances of a further miscarriage do not go up each pregnancy for the first three. Meaning that a future pregnancy is not more risky. I hope that is of some comfort.
