early miscarrage

i started with brown spotting on monday on wednesday had some red blood so i was sent for a scan. this showed a sac of about 4 weeks (my dates suggested i should be 6) but i was told my dates could just be wrong. i started bleeding on friday morning and went back to my doctors. i was told i was having a miscarrage with no examination and sent home to bed. ive been bleeding since but not very heavy and ive had no pain at all! i dont know what to do with myself!

    Oh Lucy, I'm sorry to hear of your plight and send you big cyberhugs. Alas every experience of miscarriage is different from heavy to slight bleeding, horrendous cramps to pain free. Everyone feels loss but will cope with it differently. If you're uncertain whether you have truly miscarried consult your MW or hospital maternity ward, they should be able to arrange for scans/examinations t check your health which may be a good idea either way. If you have sadly lost your bundle they'll also be able to refer you to local support groups, as well as those on here who can empathise with your loss. Best wishes and take things easy.

    sorry lucy forgot to say there should be an early pregnancy unit at a local hospital-some are walk in other your gp has to refer you,,,but if you go to casualty around 9 in morniung they sometimes send you straight to the unit were you may get a scan xx

    So sorry to hear this hun. I don't know if it will help at all but I've been through exactly the same thing - and I'm also booked in for another scan on 1 June. Although I now don't expect to hear anything apart from that everything has "cleared out".



    To make matters worse I got my 12 week scan date through today - gutted - I wish I hadn't opened it !!!



    Hope that you get some comfort from reading some of the posts on here xx
