Anyone miscarried after Coronavirus symptoms

[Addy84]

I’m a healthcare worker in a hospital, 10 weeks and this is/was my first pregnancy. Had viral symptoms around 10 days ago and have been self isolating since... but I’ve been extremely stressed and feeling guilty leaving my colleagues on the front line. Wednesday started to get brown spotting, Thursday and Friday brown spotting with some red bits. This morning became bright red and heavier throughout the day. The cramps started at 3pm and got progressively worse and I passed several large clots. No obvious tissue. Has started easing off now. Unfortunately none of the EPUs nearby in Scotland would see me due to covid, as they’re only seeing possible ectopics, but managed to book a private scan for tomorrow. Can only presume that I’ve miscarried, and part of me does wonder if this was caused by the virus and/or all the awful anxiety lately. Anyway, just wondering if anyone else out there going through something similar... I feel devastated 😢

I am nearly 11 weeks, went for a scan & found no heartbeat. Baby measuring 8 weeks 5 days. Around the time my partner was sent home from work due so many people having the virus and it spreading. Can’t help but feel that it caused it. Heartbroken going for surgical management this week and because of virus outbreak I’ve had to go to appointments alone and will Have to do that alone too and just get picked up outside after.

I'm currently going through a miscarriage after spotting for a couple of weeks. My husband is currently upstairs self isolating with coronavirus so I couldn't go into the hospital for a scan and started freaking this morning with the amount of blood. Midwife told me to monitor it and if it was still bad in an hour I could go into the hospital but they would have to meet me in the carpark to take protective measures. Luckily the bleeding has relaxed but raging at coronovirus for making everything so hard. Not sure if coronavirus was contributing factor but it hasn't helped that's for sure. Hope you ladies are OK.

I’m so sorry you both are going through this too. I’ve read a lot about it and I think it’s very unlikely Coronavirus can cause miscarriages. Also very unlikely that maternal anxiety level or anything we have done could cause it. (My mother thought it would be helpful to tell me that I shouldn’t have gone running! Argh) Most common cause is a genetic problem meaning the Fetus couldn’t survive and this is simply chance. Nothing we could have done and it’s important to look after yourself and allow yourself to grieve, especially during this anxious time. Hope you are both ok x

Thanks for the info Addy. I hope you are too. Stay safe at the hospital during this time, all the best xxx

Thank you Addy. ♥ It's absolutely devastating but a plus point is being able to hide from the world just now without explaining why. Comments about not going running are wildly unhelpful at a time like this. 😢 Hopefully you can take whatever time you need and not rush back to work. X

Hello all, sorry to read what you are all going through.
I had an early scan at 7 + 1 due to previous miscarriage. I was measuring two weeks less and no heartbeat. I know my dates and got a positive before my missed period so know what it means. Due back next week to confirm. Had slight brown spotting but nothing since.
Hoping it happens naturally soon or I still have to option for medical management given the current circumstances but also scared to be in hospital.
Can’t even see my partner as myself and daughter are self isolating.

Just heartbreaking, I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. Hopefully it happens naturally and can be comfortable at home. ♥

I’m so sorry for your loss, I have just today been through an identical scenario but have to wait a week for a confirmation scan. I too miscarried last year and had a horribly elongated bleed before 2 failed medical managements. This time I am really wanting a d and c but have been told it might not be an option - do you mind me asking what happened during your EPU consult and whether you were offered a d and c? Much appreciated, again I’m so sorry for your loss x

@Hevviie I’m not sure which post you are referring to but didn’t want to read and not reply.
For me I started to miscarry the day before my return appointment but ended up heavily bleeding on the day and passing large clots. They helped me by removing tissue.
Sorry I can’t help answer you question but hopefully someone will be able to.
Thinking of you ❤️

Thank you @Oldermum80, I hope you are in the clear now. I’m really not looking forward to going through the process again but we’re all stronger than we think. Thank you for sharing x

Hi Hevviie. I was offered 3 different options, as my miscarriage didn’t happen naturally. As far as what I was talked through it’s entirely your choice as to how you want to manage your miscarriage- I think they would have preferred me to do it at home under current circumstances however I explained I have a 6months old at home so I explained about being home alone with a small baby miscarrying would be really tough and the midwives where really understanding and didn’t challenge me on my choice. I’m so sorry for your loss & I hope you have a positive healthy pregnancy soon. X
