Hello,
I recently found out at a scan that I had a missed miscarriage. I am meant to be 10 weeks at present, gestational age of 6 weeks.
There was an error made by the clinic in arranging my medical management. I am now having the misoprostol (2 days after the initial mifepristol) 6 days before we are going on holiday.
It is a UK holiday but 6 hours away from home. We will be seeing family (though not staying with them) that we personally don't want to know about our loss. For various reasons, I am really keen to go on the holiday if at all feasible, and not possible to reschedule with work.
Obviously, if there is a significant complication, such as bleeding not starting, we would have to cancel. It would be awkward to make up a reason for this, and I would also feel sad to miss something I have been looking forward to.
Really very grateful for opinions, particularly from those who have had a loss around this gestation. Is the bleeding likely to be manageable by the point at we are leaving? Does it seem reasonable that if there is expected bleeding etc, that we are going, hoping there are no further complications?
I've discussed with the staff at EPAU, and they think it should be fine but were fairly vague about this- and that we can just attend local A+E etc if problems.
Would appreciate thoughts from someone who has been through the process though, on whether this sounds vaguely sensible as a possible plan.
Thank you, and sorry to everyone who has been in this position in the past
