5 weeks and bleeding 😢

I posted this morning about lack of symptoms and shortly after had some brown when I wiped. This has progressively increased to brown bits in my urine and darker “bleeding”
I had a GP appointment and she said she would refer me to early pregnancy. Since then the bleeding has increased, but only when I wipe. My GP has called me back and said early pregnancy won’t see me until I’m 6 weeks so I have to wait. She asked me to do another pregnancy test which I’ve done with extremely diluted urine. Faint positive on Clear Blue and positive on a CB digital.

I guess I’m after some hope 😢over 10yrs waiting for this and it looks like I’m losing the baby 😢

Thank you 😢

im unsure whether to go for the scan still or not. My midwife friend thinks I should just to confirm everything has gone. But I feel like what’s the point 😢

Yes OP you must go. If you have any retained matter you can get an awful infection.
Be kind to yourself, this is a difficult time.

I agree with the others please go to the scan to make sure nothing is remaining. Some people say stupid things during MC and I still haven't got over some stuff I got told after my MC several years later. Give yourself time to recover and just concentrate on yourself and your DH. ❤️‍🩹

Thank you 😢

it’s just so heartbreaking after all this time trying. And hearing “at least you know you can get pregnant” really isn’t helping after over 10yrs of trying…. I know people mean well, but it just sucks

Hi OP.
Im so sorry, i just had a miscarriage too.
You should go for the scan because sometimes our bodies don’t always get rid of everything themselves. A scan will be able to show whether there is anything left and if there is they may be able to help you, retained pregnant product can cause pretty serious infections so it’s better to get the all clear. Again I’m so so sorry, it’s just the shittiest thing in the world to go through. I’m hoping you won’t experience it in quite the same way I did as I was slightly further along but if you do get very large clots (and I mean fruit sized clots - plums, lemons etc) that’s apparently normal!

update: sorry I quoted the wrong comment!

Owww ❤️‍🩹 I was so hoping for a good outcome for you. I'm so sorry OP there are no words xx

DoraBella88 · 09/07/2024 15:21

Thank you everyone for your support ❤️
I’ve just passed a large bit of tissue so I’m assuming that was the pregnancy ☹️😢

Yes. I still remember my first miscarriage and the sense of grief. It was so long ago now.
But it was awful.

Whyoohwhyohwhyyyy · 09/07/2024 19:18

I'm so sorry OP, absolutely gutted for you

SiberFox · 09/07/2024 19:39

So sorry OP. It’s absolutely shit. Big hugs

cherrybl0ssom5 · 09/07/2024 23:43

so sorry to read this, sending you hugs & wishing you the best on your journey going forward 💖

anonhop · 10/07/2024 14:15

Big hugs <3 it's ok to grieve this right now + you don't have to 'find a silver lining'. It's rubbish & it's ok to feel that.

So sorry this is happening to you. X

How are you, @DoraBella88?

I've been thinking of you.

Thank you. It’s just so so so shit. I’ve been off work this week as I just can’t face the world right now. Luckily my boss has been absolutely amazing. But I’m just grieving. Over 10yrs of wanting something and this being the outcome is just devastating. But we’re both on the vitamins and folic acid again. That is all we can do I guess.
