Miscarriage?

Has anyone experienced period-like cramps and brown discharge during early pregnancy that has resulted in a successful pregnancy? I am experiencing the above and feeling incredibly worried that I’m having another miscarriage. I’m about 6 weeks pregnant.

Frustrating inbetween

Hi ladies, I am in the frustrating in between of knowing I’m miscarrying (for the 3rd time) and waiting for my follow up appointment with the hospital to confirm that the pregnancy isn’t progressing.

Miscarriage ptsd?

I’m curious pregnant mommas…if you’ve never had a miscarriage, do you still check the TP every time you wipe when you use the restroom? Or is that a ptsd from miscarriage thing only? I’m 20.5 weeks and I STILL check the TP every time I wipe and if I feel discharge leaking out of me throughout the day, I go out of my...

Miscarriage

This is quite a weird question, however I want my partner to know how I feel about having another missed miscarriage (I’ve had 2 in 4 months) but without saying it myself to him (I’m not much of a talker and can’t seem to talk about it properly)… How would you describe the feeling of having a miscarriage?

What was your first period like after miscarriage?

Mine are usually very heavy but only last about 4ish days. This is my first period since my miscarriage, started out super super light but has kept getting a little worse. Currently on day 7 and it’s now so heavy 😫 feels like it’s never going to end at this rate.

How would you react to a friend saying you have both suffered the same I miscarried at 14 weeks and she was two days late (no positive test)

It’s a really sensitive topic and I’m not sure how to approach it. I miscarried at 14 weeks, after three scans which came as a complete shock and I was devastated. My friend sent a few messages asking how I was but then we never discussed it again (she didn’t know how to approach me and that’s fine it’s tricky). A f...
