Certain I’ve miscarried...

So I’m pretty sure I’ve miscarried, I haven’t been for a scan or anything to confirm.

Now I don’t know if I’m being silly or wishful hoping.. I just didn’t think it would be like this.

Last Wednesday went to hospital as I had old blood spotting and slight pain on left side, had an ultrasound and saw the baby’s heart beating and midwife said it looked completely healthy and was around 6+weeks. They also found I had a UTI and I was ovulating so that might of caused the slight pain...
On the same evening I started bleeding fresh blood, but probably about as half bad as a period, bleeding has been on and off but again not half as much as a period. I’ve had no clots, no pain.

Last night I’m like 95% sure the baby come out, it was a very hard “ball” about the size of a strawberry which looked like there was a small “cord” attached. Bleeding has gone down to spotting.. again no clots or pain.

I can’t think of anything else it could be... but I have read a little on maybe passing “fibroids” or maybe “detached placenta”, Again i don’t know if I’m just trying to find anything else it could have been but I’m afraid it most probably is a miscarriage.
Everyone says if it’s a miscarriage you would know as there would be a lot of blood and pain...

Just wondering if there’s other stories on here where people have passed “something” thinking it was a baby and it wasn’t. Or that their miscarriage wasn’t painful or a lot of blood just for some reassurance. I do feel as though I’m tricking myself and I know I won’t know for sure until I have another scan or blood tests, I’m just terrified of going to find out for sure. I’m just so confused, I do feel it is, but people I have spoke to and what I’ve read the miscarried embryo is quite squishy.. mine was really quite hard.

Sorry if this post creates anyone stress, I just feel really lost and empty.

When I miscarried at 7 weeks there was a lot of pain, bowel movements, blood clots and eventually a large grey mass. Certainly bigger than a strawberry. I would go to your EPU for a scan Thanks I hope you're okay op x

Thankyou @wjg65ka and sorry to hear you’ve been through a miscarriage. I guess I won’t know for 100% until I do go get checked out.
One minute I feel like I’ve lost everything and the next I’m being quite positive thinking there’s other chances, but I’ll be ok thankyou. Hope you are ok too x x
