Don't really know what I want from this...maybe just a bit of support. I had a MMC in feb at 11 weeks, baby stopped developing 6/7 weeks. Then another miscarriage in may 5/6 weeks. I currently 8 weeks pregnant. I've been bleeding/ spotting brown blood for a week mainly spotting but sometimes heavier, had this exact same with my MMC. Slight cramps. But I just know it's happened again. No help from EPU unless the bleeding is extremely heavy. I've ended up booking a private scan for tomorrow because I just want to have this sorted. My previous MMC was awful because my body thought I was further on than I was and ended up in hospital with bleeding and have to have it physically removed during an examination due to blockage. I told Epu all this and still just said to test a week after bleeding stops and if it's positive assume all is fine. Feel so dismissed and fed up 😞

I am so sorry for your loss. I too am in the same situation. I had a MMC last November at 12 weeks but the weekend b the scan the sac only measured 5 weeks. I went through a very painful and traumatic loss and lost a lot of blood, something I wasn’t aware prepared for. We have been trying again for 8 months and o finally fell pregnant again in August. Due to our history we were having private weekly scans and we had the same sonographer each week. In fact the baby’s was growing well and was always ahead. At 8.3 I was measuring at 8w5d and then I went back the following weeks and was measuring 9w6d but no heartbeat. She was as shocked as I was given it was strong and healthy. I still can’t get my head around it. Today I went for an op to havethe baby removed as I couldn’t go through what we went through last time and my partner couldn’t see me go through it again. I’m utterly devastated and it scares me to think that this could be recurring And don’t know how to move forward. . I completely feel your pain. I am so so sorry. Big hugs you. Xxx
