I’m miscarrying, when will this be over?

[nicola18737]

I have been bleeding brown blood for about 7 days. I had a scan and everything was fine, we seen the heartbeat.

The blood turned red a few days ago but stayed quite light. Then yesterday I had a huge gush of blood and thready bits so went to a&e. The doctor said my cervix is open and bulging so I am miscarrying. I have been bleeding bright red blood since yesterday morning and the rest of it still hasn’t come out. How long will this go on?

Including the brown bleeding, this has been going on 11 days now. I just went to move on.

I have a scan Wednesday morning to check I guess everything has gone.

So sorry your going through this, I've had a miscarriage in the past and it's a horrible thing. I also had a scan about a week after all the bleeding which confirmed everything had passed out, I didn't really notice anything in particular just had red bleeding which stopped after a few days. I hope its all over soon for you so you can move on

@sprite25 thank you for your reply. Sorry you’ve gone through this too. How many weeks were you and did you see lots of lumps and bits? I’m scared of what I’m going to see every time I go to the loo. I can cope with the blood. I just want it to stop now and start again.

I was only around 6 weeks so it was very early days. I did at one point feel like I passed a small clot into the toilet but it just looked like period blood to be honest the rest wasn't actually that heavy but I can understand being scared about what you might see, do you have people irl there to support you? It is an awful thing to go through but I see it as it happens because something just isn't quite right for a normal healthy pregnancy to progress, nothing anyone could of done just not meant to be, it helped me to think of it that way but obviously like I say I was only very early days so hadn't really thought about it as a 'baby' yet.

@nicola18737 I'm so sorry to hear your going through this. I've been following along with you on other threads where we have been going through the same.

Yesterday I had major cramping and passed a big clot. Rang 111 and they got me into urgent care who has booked me into epu. The doctor told me he thinks I'm having a miscarriage. He said to expect the bleeding to get worse, but it hasn't its slowed down but bright red and very mild cramping.

I've got to go to epu on Wednesday morning to check if I have had a miscarriage and to have a look.

Got 2 days of worry but I think after the big clot I passed that baby maybe gone :(

Thinking of you at this hard time xx

@FirstPregnancy36yo Oh no I’m so sorry. I didn’t update the other thread as I didn’t want to worry you.

We are in the same situation. I also have a scan Wednesday. Did the doctor examine you? The doctor said my cervix was slightly open. I still have a glimmer of hope but I know that’s extremely unlikely.

My bleeding has also slowed down since yesterday. It’s still bright red but not as heavy as yesterday. I’ve also not had any pain. I just want to know what’s what and move on, it’s been one of the worst experience I have gone through, such a rollercoaster of emotions.

How are you feeling?

No all the doctor done was check my wee for infection and said no infection. As it was quite bloody wee and how I explained I passed a large clot and had cramping he just said it sounds like a miscarriage.

He didn't examine me. Just rang epu and got me in for Wednesday am.

I was in a right state, but I'm OK atm. The bleeding has got lighter but still bright red.

Good luck for Wednesday. How are things tonight with you???

Xx

Oh it’s so hard waiting. I’m actually ok. I was devastated yesterday but today I feel motivated and ready to move on. I haven’t been dreading the worst, because it is the worst so I feel like things can only get better now.

I hope you have positive news on weds but equally I understand how hard it is to have hope, mentally, and then be devastated all over again. For me it’s easier to just accept the worst.

I keep thinking it’s Sunday today but it’s monday so not long to go until Wednesday. My scan is at 9:20, when is yours? I’m taking my little boy to see In The Night Garden at 1 so hope I’m going to be ok.

I've just been through a miscarriage at 7 weeks. I started bleeding red on the Saturday and passed the worst of the slots by Monday. I passed quite a lot of fairly big clots but nothing remotely recognisable as "pregnancy tissue" which was what I was most scared of. My red bleeding lasted in total about 10 days. I'd had a couple of days brown before hand. Hope you're ok - it's really shit. Be kind to yourself.

At least u can keep yourself busy with your ds.

I think the worse has happened so prepared for that. Had a feeling for a few days something wasn't right. I know they say bleeding in the start can be normal but I just felt it wasn't right.

Hubby can't come on Wednesday as he will be at work so taking my sister. Good luck with your scan. Will be thinking of you. My appointment is 1140

@FirstPregnancy36yo yes I feel so blessed to have him. He’s made me smile and lifted me throughout this.

I’ve ordered some seven seas trying to conceive tablets, I got pregnant first time when I started using them, so I’m going to see that as a good omen.

My husband can’t come either, my son can’t come in so my mums going to have him, which means I’ll be going on my own. I think I’ll be ok though. I think it’s be worse if we hadn’t heard the worse news already.

I’ll be thinking of you.

Thank you for sharing @Oneforposy7

Oh well I hope I’m the same in that the worse is over for me too. I actually can’t remember what I seen when I had that first gush, I just remembered feeling stunned and thinking get rid of it (sadly I was at a restaurant toilets).

Did you have any pain? I’ve not had any.

I had some cramping when I was having the worst of the clots but just like a bad period. Then I had sort of after pains a few days later which were more painful. I did feel very weak with the blood loss but it seems to vary greatly how women feel during and after.

@FirstPregnancy36yo How has your scan gone?

They've told me the sac is on top of my cervix now, it's yet to come out. That's why I've not been in any pain...it's all to come. I just want this to be over.

@nicola18737 was thinking about you today. Sorry to hear your news so it's definitely over for you then??
Had a large weird clot type thing come out this morning before my scan. Scan was completed and they have confirmed I've had a complete miscarriage. They said no sac there and it's all come away. She thinks today's thing was the end of it :(

@FirstPregnancy36yo oh I'm so sorry it was bad news. It's good that the worst of it is behind you now though. Was it painful? I'm a bit scared about the pain and seeing whatever it is. How are you feeling?

Yes it's definitely over, it's just not came out yet. If it hasn't within a week I've to go back and they'll do something. He did try this morning but said the neck of my womb is closed so he can't.

@nicola18737 my pain was fairly manageable. I had loads of cramps like period cramps and feeling like I was constipated. Had bad cramping last night that I had to get up and walk about to ease them. I'm devastated but I think I done most my crying the other day and was expecting the worse.

Hope urs passes fairly quickly and manageable with the pain. Hot water bottle and paracetamol have been my best friend the last few days

Good luck hun xxx

@FirstPregnancy36yo that's good it's all done with. I know what you mean, I did all my crying on Sunday after going to a&e. I just want to get on with it now.

Thanks for the tips.

I hope you fall pregnant again soon. Fingers crossed for us. Best of luck xxx
