I had a natural miscarriage on Monday night. I was 6+3, I'm absolutely devastated. I started spotting on friday night, but put it down to a bout a thrush I had. I never had any major cramps, or a huge loss of blood, just a little discomfort, and the spotting turned from brown to bloody. So it was a massive shock when I passed my baby complete, nothing quite prepares you for that, I freaked out, as I was home alone. I was told to look out for clots!! I was surprised at the size actually. My bleeding is coming to an end, and my body is returning to normal, in a few days physically it will be like my pregnancy never happen, but emotionally I don't think I'm ever going to be the same again.

Huge hugs (((((((((((Snipzy))))))))))))
my 2nd M/c was very much the same, home alone, no pain etc. i was absolutely devastated. i was going to tell you it does get easier (although you never ever forget) but i know that's not what you want to hear right now - so just know you have loads of people thinking of you xxx

So sorry Snipzy...there are no words of comfort, it's absolutely one of the sh*ttiest things that can happen to a woman. I'm 2 months on from my mc and I cried my eyes out again last night.

Take care and remember everyone here has been through it and are here to support you X

Thank you all for your support.

I am struggling a bit but I suppose that's only normal. I feel a little spaced out, is that shock? I haven't eaten for 2 days now and I know that isn't good for me, but I have no appetite whatsoever, I am drinking though. How long do you bleed for afterwards? Is it different for everyone?

Hey everyone

Just wanted to say that it does get easier and one day it won't be so raw and painful.

I miscarried at 12 weeks in November 2007. Today, I've just got my positive pregnancy test and can't describe how utterly amazing it feels and I am going to make sure I treasure every single moment.

Good luck and take care everybody x

It's different for everyone. Some bleed for weeks...
I had erpc, so only bled for a week, stopped for a week, then re-started for another few days.

Hi Snipzy, so sorry for your loss. I hope reading through some of our experiences on here will help a bit, or at least make you feel a bit less alone. Time does heal, although as others have said you never forget

Can't believe it's been 2 months MV, where has that time gone? I still shed a tear at the unfairness of it all, the lady that would have been due the same time as I would have been, had I not had my first m/c went on maternity leave last week, and when I saw her sitting there with her desk surrounded by balloons and presents I couldn't help thinking "it should be me" :( I know I've got the due date to deal with in May and that's going to be awful. I mentioned it to OH the other day, and his opinion is that the baby would never have been born, so therefore I shouldn't think about the due date. You can imagine what I said to that :mad::mad: Men!!!!!!!!!

Sorry this has turned into a bit of a rant! Feeling sorry for myself today for some reason.

Hope you guys are all well xxxx

Just thought i should let you ladies know that I got my bfp this morning, in a little bit of shock and unsure how to think, but it is all good and wonderful and helps continue the healing process. Take care all
