Heavy bleeding 6 weeks - pic attached

I am 6+4 and have had on and off spotting all week. Mostly when I wiped and a mixture of pink and brown. Had an internal at 6+2 and we saw a tiny baby and tiny heartbeat ❤️. I have now started bleeding very very heavily. I do have some light cramps but I also have an upset stomach after a big meal last night so I don’t know if that’s a coincidence. I’m obviously thinking miscarriage - would you all agree? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Waiting for EMU to open. Thank you x

Sorry you're going through this, hopefully you can get seen by EPU ASAP.
Good luck.

that looks like alot of blood and clots.. paired with cramping. The signs are not looking good. I hope you made it to your EPU.. X

Sorry OP it doesn’t look good.. did you manage to get to EPU? @DenimZebra

Having to wait until Thursday to be rescanned as they need a week between appointments. Midwife has said it sounds like a miscarriage and I think the same x

I have 3 DCs. I had bleeding with my oldest son, whose now 19.
It was at times red and heavy.
It was chalked up to one of those things.

I’m sorry OP, do you have someone with you?

DenimZebra · 25/01/2025 20:57

I do thank you. I have a wonderful supportive partner so we are in this together. It’s the waiting until Thursday and having to carry on like normal which is hard. Not sure I can face work.

Think that’s a very early miscarriage, sorry.

Take all the time you need off work, love. I found out I had an MMC on Tuesday and I'm getting scanned again on Wednesday to confirm no further growth or development. The wait is a killer and there's no way I'm going back to work any time soon. Sorry you're going through this x

I've bled like this and heavier with my almost 6 year old. But I've also bled like this with the start of 2 of my mc, and bled less initially for my 3rd mmc.
It could go either way op. Glad you have support with you x

OopsieeDaisy · 26/01/2025 05:03

Sorry you’re going through this OP, it’s a horrible waiting game until Thursday unfortunately. I hope everything is ok, look after yourself.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I don’t know where you are but can you check if your local hospital has a EPU or a women’s ambulatory day unit? When I had bleeding in December, they advised me to go to A&E to get referred to their day unit and I had a scan within two hours. This was on a Sunday just before New Year’s Eve. Sending you lots of love x

It was the EPU that said I need to wait until Thursday? I was in last Thursday for a scan as had been spotting so she said it needs to be a week between scans? I wish I could go sooner x

From the research I've done, waiting a week seems to be the norm. It's to see if there's any growth or development in that space of time. I think it's also to avoid any misdiagnosis, althought that's rare. It's absolutely horrible x

Thank you that’s really helpful to know x

It's possible that you have a subchorionic haematoma, and that all will be well.
It's going to be a long wait till Thursday. I'll keep everything crossed for you.

NameChange101xox · 26/01/2025 13:57

Fx for you x

DenimZebra · 28/01/2025 19:50

Waiting to be seen still on Thursday but have passed this clot tonight. Have been trying to hold onto some hope but I think this has confirmed it for me. Thanks for everyone’s help and advice x ^^

Thanks everyone. Confirmed today that I am miscarrying. Scan showed a lot of bleeding inside still and still to pass the sac. Been given two weeks to pass it naturally then will take it from there x
