Missed Miscarriage
Hi ladies,
I started bleeding on Friday and went to A&E and they told me to come back on Monday for a scan. We went yesterday and I should have been 10+2 but the baby died at around 6 weeks.
I've decided to let nature take it's course and let everything happen naturally rather than surgery or medication. Has anyone else been through this? How long did it take?
I've been bleeding since Friday but it's getting heavier so I'm hoping it won't be long so I can begin to deal with it a bit better.
Thanks xx

So sorry for your loss. I had a MMC end of may and it is a horrible thing for anyone to go through so I hope u have lots of support from your loved ones.your story is similar to mine, I started to bleed and had an emergency scan and should have been 11 weeks bur baby only measured 6. I found that over 3 days it got heavier and then on the day I passed the baby I had horrific cramps, like period pain but worse, then once I had passed "everything" (sorry I hope u don't fins this too upsetting) the bleeding was just like a period and it lasted about 10 days, then I got my next period about 5 weeks later. I had to keep going back to epac for preg tests as my HCG levels were taking a while to go down, so make sure you get good aftercare. Lots of hugs to you and your OH at this time. Xxxx
I can honestly say hun that you will be feeling awful to begin with, empty and lost. this feeling will start to ease I promise.
they also say that if you have 20 days with no bleeding, then when you do bleed after this that this is your AF. they advise 4-6 weeks for AF and 2-4 weeks for ovulation after a miscarriage. it varies greatly though. Just take your time and get lots of support. Me and my husband still cry about our lost baby to this day.
Take care and we are all here for you if you need us. I dont know where I would be without this site.
