Miscarriage Vent - TW

I went through a miscarriage yesterday, my 3rd one. It was a missed miscarriage, and I was given medication to speed up the process. I only needed the first dose before it started working. My partner was at work, I was home alone with our 6 month old baby. Ive had miscarriages before so assumed I’d be okay to manage, but it ended with me on the floor of the shower, my daughter in her bouncer in the bathroom with me for hours while I rocked backwards and forwards. I had to beg my partner to leave work an hour earlier and luckily he did as I believe I lost way too much blood too fast, I almost fainted and an ambulance was called. The bathroom looked like a murder scene. I’m so mad I took the tablet, I’ve been further along in pregnancies and never have I experienced anything like that in my life. I can’t stop thinking about the whole experience. I’m just thankful my partner was so so supportive otherwise I have no idea what will have happened. He’d only been home 20 minutes😢

Oh my gosh that is so scary! I’m so so sorry you went through that. I’ve had two miscarriages and while one was a bit further along than the other (11.5 weeks vs 8 weeks) I was able to manage them without using tablets or getting D&C. You sharing this helps me stand firm that I don’t want to use the pill if this ever happens again. That sounds horrifying.

Omg your story gives me flashbacks. I had the same experience with my miscarriage. I didn’t induce the miscarriage it started on its own at around 9 weeks. The amount of blood I lost and the amount of tissue I observed made me pass out. I was home alone when all of this was happening but luckily my husband and my mother arrived within 20 mins. I don’t think I would have survived without them, my mum called the ambulance after the state I was in and the amount of blood I had lost. Months later I still have nightmares about it. I don’t think I will ever get over the trauma I observed.

@Lisa me too! My last one I should have been 14 weeks but the baby stopped growing at 7 weeks and I was meant to have a d&c but passed it naturally at home just after the scan and that was no near the level that the one I had a few days ago was!
