    I had a missed miscarriage in July and had no bleeding. My friend had a miscarriage early and she just had a heavy period. I think it depends on you.

    If you are in extremem pain or pass lots of large clots do get help though.

    It doesn't matter whether its 5 weeks or further down the line it all affects us all differently. You can't tell how you will feel until you have been there.

    Hugs xx

    I should be number 3 on the pg list now (EDD 25.12.13). Although with two of them they'd probably already be here by now.

    Can't stop thinking about it all :(

    Big hugs Tea.

    You didn't exactly have the best due date either did you in terms of trying to not think about it. You must feel like that just rubs it in further.

    I'm not surprised you can't stop thinking about it, I did before my due date too.

    Now I'm thinking about the anniversary of the day we had the bad scan & erpc is coming up - and I'm bloody pregnant and an very grateful for that so I can imagine that date is going to be very hard for yu.

    I will say though it was a relief once it was over. I think the build up was worse than the day itself xx

    Thanks ladies x.

    I think in some ways I will feel better once the EDD is past, just feels like a massive countdown at the moment (literally - every time I turn the TV/radio on I hear how many days it is).

    Also feels like no one else is bothered, like I'm the only person that even remembers they existed.

    I remember. I was thinking of it just the other day while out for a Christmas do. Thinking how hard it must be for you with all the reminders everywhere.

    hugs.

    That's how I felt too.

    Even some yoghurts in the fridge dared to go off on the 4th July. I still cringe a bit at that date now.

    Hi ladies

    Just coming in here from the less than 12 weeks pregnant thread on their advice....

    Had our 12 week scan yesterday to find there was no heart beat with our little one.

    Development stop around 9 weeks 2 days

    Have opted for the tablets option and going in tomorrow morning to have that done. Have been reading a few decent posts with what to expect. Just really want things over with now...... :( I just hope I don't bleed excessively. Pain I can cope with more, it's just the blood that's worrying me :(

    I've been thinking about you over the last week or so, tea, because my first m/c baby was also due on Christmas Day and I remembered that was your EDD too. The new year that year did bring some closure for me and helped me start to heal, and I hope the same holds true for you.

    Sorry for your loss too LJ. It's such a horrible shock when that happens.
