Miscarriage at 12 weeks - pls do not read if sensitive to TMI

[doggus]

I was 12 weeks pregnant, bleeding slightly for the last three weeks, which turned into a torrent of blood and then I started to miscarry yesterday.

I have to go into the details here because I need some advice. I passed the baby, I know because to our horror we both saw. I then passed a large grey lump about the size of my palm. After lots more blood and clots the bleeding settled.

However today the bleeding and cramps have hugely intensified. I passed a huge lump of grey rope earlier, and more clots. What shall I do - if anything? I phoned the GP who said there was nothing they could do and go to A and E if it got too bad.

Does anyone have a view - I am really reluctant to go to A and E as we are, to make matters worse, struggling with ds who has a vomiting virus and is being sick constantly even on water.

Any help greatly appreciated. I just feel so miserable.

Hey doggus. Just wondered how you got on at the GP.

I hope you're OK.

Hi everyone, thank you for asking. I am feeling much better physically. The GP did a quick exam and said everything seems OK.

It will take a lot longer mentally obviously but at least my body is on the mend.

Thank you all so much for your support - you are all really lovely people and I could not have got through without you.

Dear Doggus , i was really interested in your story and am glad you got some cyber friends with FAB advice, how are you now. I am in my second week after mc, bled night before the scan and baby had died at 8 weeks i think she said, my head was a bit of a shed, thats the thing you dont get to find out stuff cos your mind goes into a lost place, i couldnt remember getting appointmwent card for next scan date etc and got all mixed up the following week. I had massive headaches, wept alot, greived, bled more blood than i thought was possible, my husband just kept saying 'dont worry its not circulatory'..then when i passed lo , it was similar to yourself and i too have put lo in rose bush pot by back door, which i attend to now and then, even had thoughts about digging it back up to check it...strange but then mc is strange but also i feel mc becomes part of nature also, it really is a clever body that says 'no not this time', however it is so tragic and shocking. I have found its like jumping out a plane for the first timealone, not that i have domne it, but with none of the exhilaraion just the whire fear and the iscolation and unknown and wondering if you will live through it...i landed and im ok now but what a flippin fall...i hope you doing ok and thankyou for the inventor of the internet who got it right when it comes to things like this because mc is just not on the lips of many folk in everyday life. Love to you and hope you feeling bit better x
