Slow Early miscarriage? Spotting cramps and back/ leg pain

[Jesslyra123]

I’m new here and posting in some desperate attempt to find anyone who has been through the same I just find comfort in stories and would love someone to talk to.

This is my second pregnancy I start bleeding at 5 weeks only brown spotting for a few days witch has slowly turned to red and heavier (6 weeks now) but still mainly only when I wipe.
Mild period like cramps since yesterday pretty much constant. Some lower back ache that travels down my Legs
This is my second pregnancy have a very healthy 16 month old daughter ..
I know for a fact what’s happening I’m very in tune with my body and new I was miscarrying withing a few days of spotting. I have tried to connect my gp but I havnt had any luck and if I’m honest I’d rather wait it out a while and try pass this at home instead of tests and scans and hospital corridors.
I can tel the bleeding is getting more consistent and red now but the past week it has been on and off and worse in the evening.
Iv searched every single thread to find someone who has been through the same but has no luck.
(I don’t want to be negative but I don’t want positive experiences or anyone saying I had this and had a healthy baby I KNOW that isn’t the case for me )
Anything would be very much appreciated thank you xxxx

@Jesslyra123 I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through, it’s not easy is it 😥 First off I’ll say I’m here if you need someone to talk to, I’ve not had a great first experience to being pregnant and went through a miscarriage these past few days, I'm feeling pretty lonely and isolated, even though I’m surrounded by family it still isn’t making me feel any less lonely. I didn’t have bleeding earlier on, it was more pains that I had to begin with.

I know it’s a nightmare getting in touch with GPs, even more so at the moment, but keep trying, it was my doctor that referred me to the local emergency gynae department and since I had that first appointment there, I had the phone number so I contacted them direct when I knew something wasn’t right this weekend. Unfortunately when talking to the GPs about things like this, you have to lay it on thick otherwise they think you’re just being overly paranoid. It’s frustrating as hell but I’m glad I did on that first appointment with my doctor otherwise I probably would still be physically suffering and in more pain more than I am now. As awful as my hospital experience has been, I couldn’t even begin to imagine going through it all at home.

Let me know how you’re getting on xx

I’m 6 weeks pregnant and have started bleeding, I went to the early pregnancy unit yesterday and they said cervix was closed but couldn’t scan me as it was weekend. I’m having a scan tomorrow but I’ve prepared myself for the worst. It’s such a scary time, sending lots of love

Hey guys thank you so much for the reply’s..
an update for anyone who needs this in the future.
@Beapo
I’m sorry for your loss.. if you need a chat feel free to message me it’s really not easy going through this even with support! Sometimes talking to a stranger does help weirdly enough ah.
@Welshwoman5150
I hope your scan goes well today hun. Bleeding isn’t always a bad sign! Please let me know how it goes and message me if you need some support. Good luck xx

UPDATE - after 8 days of spotting/bleeding( brown to red ) on and off
witch wasn’t as heavy as a period witch I find strange& very minimal cramps. But quite a bad lower back pain
I got a scan at EPU straight away the could see my whom was empty and lining very thin so everything had passed already. I hardly had any clots ect only the size of a grain of rice.

I already knew what they would say so this wasn’t a shock. They told me to take a test in a weeks time if it’s still positive then to come back in as they would be worried about eptopic witch is now slightly on my mind as tests are getting darker rather then lighter.

It’s now Monday 5th no pains as such just a awful back ache still bleeding has pretty much stopped now.

Updated for anyone who may need this as i took great comfort in mumsnet the past week xx

I had miscarriage and found out today. Really devastated as it’s first baby through fertility

Really sorry to hear about the loss @Jesslyra123 @Welshwoman5150 ... i have been through an early miscarriage few weeks back and understand the pain. Please take care of yourself !

Thank you! It’s so cruel to have something taken away like that. Lots of love and self care needed for all of us going through this xx
