I'm sorry you're experiencing bleeding and some pain. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. If you feel you need to go to A&E to find out now what's going on then you should regardless of what the nurse you spoke to said. Sometimes we need to have our minds put at rest. If you do decide to wait until your dating scan on Wednesday I hope it all goes well and ends positively.

Well I went to work this morning only to have a slight bleed followed by a really heavy bleed that went straight through everything, I left straight away and have come home waiting for the midwife to call me. The cramping has stopped again now but I daren't stand up as thats when it seems to all kick off again.
I was a mess yesterday, in tears all day, and I said to OH that I really think I am miscarrying and my HCG levels are dropping which is making me an emotional wreck. I so wish I was wrong or could even be a little more positive but in my heart I know this isn't right.
I'm hoping they can scan me today just so I know for sure as I can't deal with much more of this

Oh darling,
I can't believe they are making you go through this. When the midwife calls I would demand an appointment on EPU. Tell them you can't cope anymore and you need to know. Good luck sweetheart, thinking of you

After sitting at the hospital for what seemed like ages, I was scanned. They wouldn't let me see at first but located the heartbeat and then showed me. Everything looks fine except for this clot above my womb, they couldn't confirm and I'll have to wait till wednesday's scan for more answers hopefully. They couldn't reassure me at all other than to say all is fine now but they have no idea how this could go. They are suspecting that part of the placenta has come away which is the cause of all the cramping.
I've come away feeling no better and realising that somehow I have to hang on to every bit of strength I have left in me to just accept that it's a day at a time, I just find it terrifying that as each week passes should anything happen it's going to be so much harder to deal with, I'm not saying a loss any earlier is easier because I'm certain that it's just as devastating, it was just so traumatic last time actually seeing my baby fully formed that I really don't know I could cope with it again. I'm going to be a mess if I carry on this way but I just daren't get too hopeful. Thanks for listening x

The bright red blood has started again and I'm cramping again now, I think it's inevitable and totally expect to miscarry.
I'm sorry to hear what you are going trough, the same thing happened to me last weekend, i started spotting suddenly at 11 weeks, no pain, mostly dry brown blood and very little all together, I had no pain - felt confused. I called my OB/GYN and she said not to go to emergency room if I wasn't in alot of pain or alot of bleeding, but to come in to their office forst thing next morning for a scan, to see what's going on - peace of mind.
And I guess what im trying to say is that i think a good OB/GYN will offer you, if not an emergency scan, then a next day scan so you will know what's happening. The worry is the worst part, then night between the bleeding and the early morning scan, I slept nothing, dozed off and had nightmares, ran to the bathroom and checked. Went in with a heavy feeling and great worry in the morning, but relieved that the bleeding had stopped over night. Unfortunately the scan showed a silent miscarriage, it had happened a few weeks back, I had no idea. I went in for a D/C last tuesday, it was ok but I still have a long way to go. Sorry for rambling here but I guess what im trying to say is: don't feel that you have to wait until your appt on wednesday (tomorrow?) if you don't feel like you can - sometimes knowing is more important than any physical pain or bleeding, once we know, we know, and we will continue accordnign to that. As horrible and sad as it was to find out we had lost or little bean, I still wanted to know as soon as I could! Im thankful for my Ob/GYN letting me come in as soon as she did. The outcome was not good, but it was reality and I knew.
All the best for tomorrow, god bless!

So sorry that I posted all my stuff before reading the whole thread! It is great that they scanned you and wonderful what they found, I cannot believe how strong you are in this! All the best for tomorrow, make sure you get lots of rest after this .

Ladyzoul So sorry hun and thanks for sharing your story. I really hope you are doing ok. I agree the worst part is not knowing. While yesterday everything was fine, it's not right to be bleeding the way I am and in my heart I hold very little hope of making it full term. My last loss was at 17w and I'm terriefied that it's going to happen around the same time as this is exactly what happened last time. I'm glad I sound strong cause inside I'm a mess and don't feel like I can cope with much more of this x
