Has any had medical help with early missed miscarriage?

[Saege001]

Your excited to be pregnant and something you have wanted for so long. You start spotting and the midwifes and doctors telling you it’s normal. You have a scan and they should be seeing a baby but nothing so they do a internal scan and the egg is there but the Fetal pole is gone! Not only are you grieving but every time you go to the toilet you’re reminded of what’s happening to you. The sister gave me some vaginal tablets to help things along, I bled that night and had cramps but by the next morning it was pretty light again. I feel like I’m just waiting for this bomb to go off inside me of pain and blood. I feel so scared that maybe the tablets didn’t work, so I’m just waiting for something to happen. Trying to distract myself from what’s happening but how do you even do that! My partner is great and supportive but he doesn’t understand the messy bits of it. Has anyone else had this after the medical help?

Hello, I'm really sorry this has happened to you xx I was 13 weeks pregnant went for my scan and the baby had stopped growing at 8 weeks. I had the same tablets. It took a while for things to start happening. If I'm honest it wasn't very painful it was just like period pains. The bleeding lasted about two weeks. At first it was heavy bleeding but then it settled down.

I'm not sure if you will find this comforting but I was very scared to try again but once I got past the fear I got pregnant again and we now hAve a three year old.

Sending love ❤️

I have had medical management for 2 miscarriages. The first time it was all over and done within 8 hours. The second time was just a couple of weeks ago. That time the first dose failed - I had a couple of cramps but nothing like my previous experience, then spotting then nothing and had to repeat the dose 3 days later. From the second dose it was again over in a couple of hours. Both times It was impossible to miss when I passed the pregnancy tissue. The drugs are out of your system within 48 hours so if you’re not sure you’ve passed the sac by then it’s worth calling them back. The midwife told me around 1 in 5 people need a second dose.

Sorry for your loss x

I’m sorry for your loss as well, it’s such an awful thing to go though. It’s such a taboo subject it seams that people don’t openly talk about what they go through, I never realised exactly what a miscarriage means. (Naive Of me I know) I wasn’t prepared for this. I was so swept up in the excitement, we even had names worked out. How do you enjoy a pregnancy after a miscarriage and not be anxious the hole time. I hope I can let go of the past if I get pregnant in the future

@Saege001 I found it very hard the second time around. Even the first time having sex (after my miscarriage) the first 12 weeks are hard, then you kinda relax a bit. Then when the baby comes it's such a relief.

Sorry for your loss xx

Hi I need some advice I went for my first scan last Tuesday and told there was no heart beat I was meant to be 14 weeks yet baby measured 13weeks 4days absolutely heart broken do I need to have the tablet or will nature happen naturally I still feel pregnant have all the same symptoms and as strange as it sounds I’m not ready to loose that yet 😥😥😥😥

1st miscarriage went without complications. Tissue passed on it's own and was not very painful.
2nd miscarriage opted for medical management which was the most pain I'd ever felt. They said I passed it all but that wasnt the case. I ended up with an infection because of retained products and stop start bleeding. Cycles still not back to how they were. If I could go back I would just let nature take its course.

Sorry for your loss. I've just been thought this, I had a scan at the hospital after a private scan confirmed the heartbeat was gone, the hospital sent me away to return in a week for another scan. After this scan I was offered management in the form of natural where you just wait for it to happen naturally, surgical under local or general anaesthetic or medical. I'd been bleeding for a week, nothing heavy or painful but I had passed some tissue and then wasn't much remaining so chose medical. I took the first tablet in the hospital which opens up the cervix and told to insert 4 tablets 2 days later but after 48hours when I went to the toilet I passed everything that was left. I did insert the tablets but they did nothing, no pain no contractions so I'm confident it's all out now. I was really worried after reading about it but for me it didn't hurt.

I had the medical management yesterday and to be honest was expecting complete pain but it wasn't that bad just a few cramps the pain was worse after I had passed everything I stayed in while it happened and glad I did as they made it so special for me I was just over 13 weeks and when I passed my baby it looked like a little baby they placed it in a little knitted cot with a bear and let me spend time with my baby and gave me a box after of little bits to help remember my baby a candle a bear a little birth certificate I could fill in and a little angel ornament the staff were so sympathetic of the situation I was going through not sure what I would have done if this happened at home today the pain has eased a lot but every time I go toilet it reminds me of what I have lost and also I feel physically empty inside 😥😥

Your so lucky to have such a friendly experience, I really feel I’ve been left confused, worried and made to feel like I have waisted the early pregnancy units time. I guess they get so caught up in trying to hurry people and see so many people with the same problem they get desensitised to it. Maybe they have forgotten that it’s not just heartbreaking but scary as hell just waiting not knowing what is going on with your body. I did a test yesterday a week after the tablets, I’ve stopped bleeding but it still shows as pregnant and I have to wait another week to find out if it’s worked. This waiting to find out is making me so anxious. I just want this all to be over.
