Hi all.
Found out I was pregnant 7 days ago. Earlier today I started bleeding its now heavier than what my period would be and there's some clots now which are quite big.. Could this be a miscarriage? And do I have to go to the doctors or do I just let it go naturally. I'm only 19 and the one person that knows I'm pregnant knows nothing about miscarriages and I've not told my mum yet. Thanks for any help xx

Hi Vicki94
I'm so sorry this is happening to you Thanks, it does sound like the start of a miscarriage but I'm not an expert. I think you need to see a doctor as soon as possible as you are passing clots. Can you get to a&e?
I hope this helps and that the person with you can take care of you.

Hi Vicki, I'm so sorry you are bleeding. Heavy bleeding and clots does not sound hopeful, though sometimes women bleed heavily and the pregnancy continues. Don't go to A&E unless the bleeding becomes frightening (filling a maxi pad in

I would go to your gp and ask for a referral to the EPU, it is important to check if it is a mc, in case of infection,twins etc. I found my EPU to be very supportive(mc around 6weeks) and they saw me within a few hours of the gp contacting them.
