Miscarriage, confused help? Need advice

[Saraht93]

Hi all
So I started bleeding only light spotting NO cramps Friday 21st Jan , went to be assessed on Saturday 22nd. Took bloods but didn't scan as said HCG levels were too low for a scan (?!) They were 93. Then I went back for second bloods doing levels were 43 so confirmed miscarriage as had dropped 54% in 48 hours so sent home that was that.
Started with sore boobs around Monday 24th (didn't even have this when I was pregnant) like really paintful to touch and sleep on etc!
Tuesday 25th stopped bleeding near enough was only like discolouration discharge when I wriped. Then gone.

Still mega sore boobs

Today 1st feb boobs have eased off a tiny bit but not much, started with cramps and spotting so 12 days after, obviously too soon to be a period

So I'm so confused, does anyone know what could be going on?! Or do I NEED to contact the epu as I would rather try and avoid as I hate waiting around lol

Thanks guys x

Anyone lol

Hi @Saraht93, I've just come across your post, sorry to hear you're going through this, I am in a similar situation.

This is my first pregnancy so I've got nothing to base it on and there is so much on Google that it can make it hard to know how to feel.

I had bleeding and some cramps 23/01 went to EPU and have had 4 blood tests:
23/01 - 227
25/01 - 217
27/01 - 221
31/01 - 323
I've been told it's a non-viable pregnancy as they couldn't see it on a scan I had 25/01 (I assumed just too early) and that the numbers aren't doubling, so they wanted me to consider the methotrexate injection. I said I'd rather wait and see if it happens naturally.

My boobs have been more painful the last few days and my sense of smell is definitely heightened. I'm assuming it's because my hormone levels haven't dropped yet, but there is a little part of me that thinks could it still be ok and just be a slow grower? Or has something like invisible twin happened to explain the drop and then increase. Or maybe I'm just in denial!? Emotions are all over the place!

I'd not really been given much info at the EPU (not had a particularly good experience with them tbh) but as the bleeding stopped 29/01 and I've not had any cramps since 23/01 the consultant agreed to not intervene and I've got to go back 10/02 for another blood test.

So my advice would be that if you're unsure what's going on, it doesn't hurt to get in touch with them to get their advice, it's better than sat at home worrying and waiting.

And I know what you mean about waiting!! You just want to know what is going on so that you can move on, it's felt like all I've done lately is wait for the next appointment and then wait for the results and now waiting for the miscarriage to happen and the next blood tests...

Sending you big hugs.

Hi

Oh that's so strange I'd say get checked for ectopic as them numbers are going up, I'm still bleeding and boobs have gone down so I'm guessing it was coming away more.

I hope everything goes ok with you x

@Saraht93

Yeah they mentioned that it could be ectopic but because my numbers are so low they wouldn't rescan as they said they wouldn't be able to see anything and because the bleeding has stopped and I've had no other symptoms they agreed to wait 10 days.

Sorry to hear that 😔

Hopefully it doesn't last too long for you and all the best for the future 💜 xx
