I'm starting to miscarry at 9 weeks - lots of questions

I'm pretty sure I'm about to miscarry. I've been sort of expecting it but its devastating to know its happening. All my symptoms disappeared very early on. I already have one dd and I haven't recognised any of the feelings from last time since 5 weeks. Yesterday I had some very minor spotting but today I have cramps (not painful) and my tummy feels very tender and I've had a tiny bit of bright red blood. I know this doesn't have to add up to a miscarraige and I'm generally a very positive person but this really feels wrong and I've been imagining it for a few weeks now.

I have no idea what to expect

When do I ring the hospital or do I call the GP in the morning ?

How long does it tend to last ?

I have a 2 yr old DD but have just moved to a new area and there's no-one close to look after so I would either have to go to the hosptial on my own or we would need to take her with us..what should we do ???

Am I likely to need long off work ? They don't know and I really really don't want to tell them but my employer is very strict about sickness.

I am sitting here sobbing but need to also think about the practicalities ?

Any advice would be appreciated and sorry for others on the board going through the same thing ?
