Morning all

Woke up this morning with fresh blood when I wiped. Been to the loo about 10 times now and still bleeding :(

I've had bad back ache for 2 days and period type pains.

Waiting for the midwife to call me back

So upset :(

So sorry OP. I had a MMC at 10 weeks. All I got was one lot of brown discharge on my pantyliner, not enough to fill it tho, one day. Called the midwife n she refereed me to EPU. Had the scan n they told me I'd lost it. Didn't expect it tbh, I was only being safe by ringing the midwife, It's heartbreaking. Can't even settle now when trying because the tiniest thing scares the hell outta me. Always looking for discharge, blood etc. Then I just had another at 6 weeks. But this started off brown then went to bright red within 2 days. They took my bloods at EPU and it read 130. I knew it was over, I mean 130, was over before it started. Not trying now until next year, I need a break from it all because it's emotionally and physically draining. Hope your ok. When I naturally miscarried at 10 weeks I was in unbearable pain. How are you feeling? And what's the next step for you, have they said? Thinking of you. 💜

Thanks ladies.

I have just had an internal scan and unfortunately there is no longer a baby. The sac was there but there was no baby inside.

I now will just have to sit and wait to pass.

I don't really understand, how can there be a sac and no baby. Where is the baby?

I am utterly heartbroken.

Sorry to hear your news OP Flowers

Had you had any other scans in this pregnancy? I ask because I've had a mc a mmc and a blighted ovum and with the blighted ovum there was no baby just a sac but if you had previously seen a baby then it's obviously not that x

Ohdeary72 · 19/06/2017 12:09

I'm so sorry to hear OP. Look after yourself and know that these things happen. They're horrible and unfair but it's not your fault. Thinking of you xx

Mumtobejan2017 · 19/06/2017 12:23

cantdothisagain2017 no I haven't had any other scans in this pregnancy.
They didn't tell me what it was that happened, just that the baby probably didn't make it past the 1-2 week mark at most :(

Aw @Mumtobejan2017 it's heartbreaking. I think that if they said it didn't develop beyond a couple of weeks then the baby never developed, which is why you could only see the sac. The same happened to me. It's truly awful as you develop a bond with and have an expectation of a little growing life for those weeks.
It took me a good few months to feel ok after my miscarriage last year but there's no time limit to how long you will grieve for. You'll have bad days and good days.
There's a helpful thread on the pregnancy loss / miscarriage forum called "coping with the practicalities of miscarriage", which I found useful.
I bought a massive box of chocolates, a load of sanitary pads and took two weeks off work and stayed in bed until everything passed.

I'm so sorry it's such a horrible shock. With my blighted ovum there was just a sac as well.
I hope you have some support, look after yourself x

SarahBeeney · 19/06/2017 13:16

Hi OP,really sorry for your loss.
I had a MMC at 9 weeks,there was an empty sac also. I never had a good feeling about the pregnancy either,no symptoms whatsoever so like you I think I knew deep down?
Take care of yourself.

twinkle1972 · 19/06/2017 13:41

So sorry OP. Such an awful experience for any woman. Please take care of yourself Flowers

I'm so sorry, be kind to yourself and take the time you need Flowers

Borntoflyinfirst · 19/06/2017 19:45

Nature can be cruel. I'm so sorry for your loss. Same thing happened to me but not discovered until 12 week scan. Truly heartbreaking and sadly quite common. I went on to have another successful pregnancy not long after and another a few years later. When you're ready there's no reason to think this will happen again. Take care of yourself. Flowers

Mumtobejan2017 · 19/06/2017 20:06

Thank you for your kind messages everyone

Sorry to hear this op. My 1st miscarriage was like that. Although it was discovered earlier because my gp at th time did early 8 weeks scans. So I went in expecting to see baby but there was only an empty sac, like yours, it had stopped growing around 5/6weeks. I lost it a week and a bit later after 9 weeks. It was very similar to what you have been describing with your sensations and bleeding.
