Very early miscarriage - feel rough, is it normal?

[NineUnlikelyTales]

I had a pg test 3 days before my period was due (I had known from a couple of days after conception that I was pg). Then on the day my period was due I just knew I wasn't pregnant any more, and sure enough my period came and I had a negative test

I have had a fairly normalish period though I am bleeding more heavily today on day 5 than I would normally (sorry TMI) as it would normally be pretty much over by now.

But ever since Monday I have felt so tired and today I feel really sick as well. If I didn't know better I would say I felt pregnant. Is it normal to feel this crappy or is there any chance I might have picked up a mild infection? I am extra anxious as I had a very nasty womb infection after DS was born and don't want to get into that state again, though I don't feel at all like I did then.

I can't find any information online and I would be so grateful for some reassurance

how sad for you.

has the bleeding lessened at all? It is possible that you have picked up a virus. I wouldn't have though that you would have a womb infection after such an early miscarriage.

Sounds as if you might have a bit of infection, i would go and see you Dr or out of hours..... I know it sounds silly, but have you done another preg test just to amke sure ( just thinking of faint poss of twins????)

I'm also thinking maybe another pregnancy test is needed.

Thanks both.

I went out to buy a pg test this morning just to be certain but both chemists are closed for Good Friday (hopefully open tomorrow). I am trying very hard not to be hopeful!

I might ring the out of hours doctors service, they are pretty good at giving advice over the phone.

have you checked your temperature?

No, good idea.

37 degrees. That's normal isn't it?

that's normal.

It's probably just my hormones playing me about then. I'm just waiting for the doctor to ring me back.

glad you can speak to a doctor.

Thanks for taking me seriously, I have spoken to the doctor now and they advise rest and fluids, so shall take to bed.

Better luck next time eh?

yes, good luck for next time
