Yesterday was my 6th day of bleeding and the aches and cramps were quite bad, but nothing major. I kept feeling this bloated fullness right behind the pubic bone which was really uncomfortable, just like it felt i needed to wee. The bleeding had also almost stopped. I decided to have a bath in the evening to try and ease the cramps so i went to the toilet before jumping in. After finishing, i stayed on the toilet for a while, dont know why, maybe instinct?? Then i felt something slide out of me. As i looked to see what it was, this warm, thick treacle like gush of blood came from me. I went hot with fright and panic but then kept telling myself "its ok, you knew this could happen, its normal". Withing a split second all the cramping had gone and i felt great. I still got into the bath and got quite emotional at being so proud of my body for doing what it had to do. I went for a scan this morning and have been given the all clear. A complete miscarriage. The hospital have been wonderful with me and im so relieved its all over and done with and no medical intervention is needed. I know some people have horrific miscarriages but mine was so simple and easy and i feel kind of lucky in a way. So i am now going back to bed for some much needed sleep and try to relax. Thank you to everyone who has given me advice and i hope you all go on to have happy healthy pregnancies. I hope its safe to say you wont be seeing me on here again (this particular topic). xxx

Well done Foreverfriends. Give yourself some time to grieve. He/she was real and you have lost. I'm sorry.

It's really good that your body managed to do it so well. I've had two m/c and the managed one was much harder to grieve. I think if you can do it yourself, it really is best.

Thanks everyone so much. Arena, yes you will most likey pass clots but i guess that can only be a good thing as it means your passing whats inside of you. I hope everything goes well for you hun xxxx
