Having a mc.
I'm in the middle of having a mc.I was 9 wks pregnant but started bleeding and after having an internal scan on tuesday we found out that it had stopped growing at 6 weeks. I am still bleeding quite heavily and would like to know when you stop bleeding. At the minute everytime i go to the toilet it's like a slap in the face as i know i'm losing my pregnancy.
Thanks in advance for your replies.xx

The pain you feel at the moment will lessen but the best thing to do is focus on something else. Spend as much time as you need doing what you have to do to make you feel better - my doctor signed me off for 2 weeks and i basically did nothing during the day but spent real quality time with my husband. In time you will feel better trust me xx
Sorry if this is a bit long xx
I know what you mean about the bleeding though, I broke down everytime I went to the loo for that very reason. Passing the big clots was awful although I had no pain. I hope you are not in any pain.
If you need to talk we are all here. Feel free to join us in ttc after mc when you are ready xx
Sorry to hear your sad news.
From experience the bleeding can last a week or two but if you're bleeding what I would call 'fresh blood' (sorry to everyone else for TMI but I'm trying to help!), then go back and see your doc. Mine gave me some tablets which stopped the bleeding, I think my body was a bit confused.That was last time. Currently I'm over a week in and still losing more period like clots so I think it can sometimes take its time. Don't forget you can always ring your GP if you have a question, I've found the oncall doc very helpful over the phone (seem to have spent a lot of the last few weeks in and out of docs and hospital).
All the best
Thinking of you
I actually passed my little bean last night and it was the most horrific thing i've ever been through.It didn't hurt physically but the pain i felt inside was unbearable. How do you move on from something like that?
I don't really know how i'm meant to be feeling,i don't think i could ever go through something like this again and my heart goes out to all of you who have gone through this many times before,you are so strong.

We are all here whenever you need to rant, cry, talk etc.
I had mc on 8th May and the worse bit was passing my lil bean, so i can imagine how your feeling.
Take care

Not sure we're strong - just optimistic that we will do it next time, the dream is enough!
However that doesn't mean there aren't dark moments (even days) where nothing else seems important next to what you're going through. I was never very patient with 'bad parenting' (a bit judgemental!) but now it makes me soooooo angry when I see someone I don't think is doing their best for their child - you know - smoking over a pram, shouting at the kids, screaming children in the supermarket. I really have to tell myself that when I have kids I will have bad days too. I find myself drifting away from conversations - no attention for the trivial things that other people want to talk about because my worries are so much greater.
I'm sure that in time I will start to relate to the world again and remember that I once cared about these people and their worries too but its not just yet, and I think thats ok for now.
Take your time, grieve in your own way, but don't forget to come back to those who you love and love you and start to reconnect to your life.
