I miscarried this morning

Just that really. Just wanted to say it (maybe a bit weird). Was 6w+3d

Been bleeding/spotting on and off since Monday. And uti symptoms

Tried GP they sent me to 111. They rang me back in middle of night and closed my call. Hospital told me to speak to Gp. Gp said ring 111... decided to ride it out. Dropped water into surgery we'd/thu (can't mind) they didn't come back to me.

Finally got an app at choc Christmas Eve. Doctor was lovely but couldn't contact gynae. Was there 7-9. Told me there was E. coli in my water. Give me anti biotics and sent me home saying they'd invite me for a scan

Yesterday felt quite crap. Bleeding seemed to be getting heavier as in there every time I wiped. Bad cramps. Managed to do Christmas. Split myself on two a bit but uncomfortable all day.

Came home. Partner was on nights. Had a bath and got into bed. Slept 11-12:30 and woke up in pain.. awful doubled over pain. Much more than the cramps. Text partner and he text me back about 4:30 asking how I was and if I needed the hospital. Told him there was nothing they could do. Said he'd be home just after 6.

Must have nodded off for 40 mins as I woke when he came in. Couldn't get back over. Pain was awful. I wriggled about for a bit and then went into the bathroom. Felt like trying for a poo would help (sounds daft now). Partner text me asking I was ok (honestly don't think he knew what to do). Was just finishing up and changing pad. Sat back down on toilet and something fell out. Fished it out and decided it was what I'd been waiting for (too much googling).

Got back into bed and said I'd passed the fetus and we had a cuddle and tears (me although he was upset and keeps saying he doesnt understand how it's happened)
I took a couple of cocodamol for the pain and drifted off at about 7:30.

My boobs are really sore today. I'm still bleeding. Very emotional. I think it's a combination of being tired and it falling out of me (sorry tmi).

Merry bloody Christmas.

Life is sent to try us.

So sorry this happened to you. The trauma of miscarriage often goes undiscussed and you’re expected just to get on with it. The worst pain I ever felt was losing a baby at 13 weeks at home. I knew I was miscarrying and opted to be at home but wasn’t remotely prepared for the pain. On my hands and knees in agony, I realised the true meaning of climbing the walls in pain.
I hope time is a healer for you though you won’t ever forget your little one. ❤️✨xx

I can't imagine what the pain was like being so far on. Bless you ❤️ xx

I had a miscarriage this week after seeing a heartbeat on a scan.

The pain was awful, it was like being in labour about to give birth to a full term baby! The bleeding was also awful, was like a massacre scene.

I never realised that miscarriage can have these awful physical symptoms.

Then there's the emotional side... really struggling with it.

Sorry for your loss ❤️

Not too bad thank you. Haven't long been up, managed to sleep through and have a lie in so feel grateful for that x

I know it will differ but can I ask how long you all bled for?
I'm thinking I'll be a while as it wasn't as heavy as some stories I've read. My boobs are so sore which is unusual for me (don't really get this with menstruation)

Hi everyone, I have been experiencing really bad stomach cramps and aching. Thought it was my period as I get irregular periods anyways. But then passed 2 small clots this morning then a large clot this afternoon I'm just wondering what I should do or if it could be a miscarriage, I haven't been trying for a child but not used contraception either. Can anyone help please 🙏

That looks like what I've passed but much larger. Which makes me think you were further on. Have you had much bleeding? When was your last period x
