Hi everyone,
I just want to apologize firstly for the graphic pictures that are included in my post. There is no way to accurately describe them so I felt I had to post them. Earlier this month I began to experience the sorest boob pain I’ve ever experienced. They were swollen, veiny, and sensitive enough to cause pain just by lightly brushing up against the fabric of my shirts. I decided it was just pms...even though I wasn’t expecting my period until the 17th of this month (about 2 weeks away). In the time before I was due for my period I was extremely tired all the time, I found myself napping which is rare for me. I was also quite bloated for about 2 days and experienced cramping without bleeding on and off for about 2-3 days. The 17th came and I hadn’t even began to have any spotting yet but the breast pain was still present. Fast-forward to the 23rd of April and I was spotting brown, at this time I just thought my period was finally here. My breast pain was gone, just like that, but I did have an inexplicable pain in my lower back. The same day I found something in my pants when I was changing and it left me very confused as I had never passed anything like it. I put it in water per someone else’s advice to “preserve” it until I figured out what it was. The next day I just had more spotting with cramps but the bleeding didn’t come in until Monday the 26th of April and it has been horrible. I am bleeding a lot and the cramping is insane, I have taken 800mg of ibuprofen and it has done nothing to help with the pain. Today, I have been cramping all day, coming in waves and as I stood up I felt something come out. I raced to the bathroom only to find very large “blood clots” on the toilet paper. They looked like nothing I’ve ever seen before and had tissue-like components to them. I am not sure what to believe at this point in time but my gut instinct tells me that something bad happened. I would appreciate anyone’s advice on if I could potentially be miscarrying. Thank you all so much.

@Monica217 maybe you can go see your GP and do a scan, just to be sure that if you had a miscarriage everything else is alright?
