Last weekend I started getting a small pain in my lower back and then Monday I started spotting brown so I rang my midwife and she said it's common to have old blood but by Monday evening it was red. Tuesday came and there was spotting but this time bright red but was told again this was normal and because my 12 week scan was Thursday (16th) to just wait. Tuesday night I was cramping all around my stomach and Wednesday morning at 3am I had to rush to the bathroom where there was lots of blood so I rang the epu and she said I had to go to a+e where they checked my cervix which was slightly open and said I was probably miscarrying and that I would need to come bk for an early scan. Came back to the hospital in the afternoon on Wednesday where I had a scan and found out I had a missed miscarriage where my baby died just after 8 weeks and my body hadn't recognised it yet. She asked if I wanted to look at the screen but I couldn't. Within 3 hours of me going home I miscarried everything, I kept getting bad cramps and each time I got them I was passing large clots in large amounts then cramping would ho away then a few minutes later the same thing would happen, it was awful. I rang the epu on friday to tell them and took ask what to do and she said because my period was due around the same day as passing, it might have pushed it along to clear out my system.

We hadvno help cause of no early pregnancies clinic so have no idea if all is passed ...but wee still have some hope...cause the bleeding did start 3 days b4 and clots were coming out b4 wee went for scan but when got scan there was a heartbeat and possible 2 sacks were pretty sure we had a miscarriage exactly same as Uve explained it was terrifying to watch my partner go threw this...I'm sorry for anyone dealing with this especially if u have no1 to turn too..for advice or help....wee are looking at tryn to get another scan asap to check it's all gone or there is still a baby there..the unknown is terrifying ino with covid all sources are stretched but i def think early pregnancy clinic shud be still there to help mothers going threw this....
