First of al I want to put m thoughts to all others goog through this right now, and those who have been through it before.
I just have a question on if I should be worried.
I started spotting early on in the pregnancy and my heart told me something "wasn't right". The dr never seemed concerned, and when the first scan showed the growth off by 2 weeks, they still brushed it off. This was 2 weeks ago. I was supposed to be 8w2d and was measuring 6w3d.
Wednesday I started having back cramps.
Thursday my spotting turned to bright red with small clots.
Went to the hospital. They seemed unconcerned but I insisted and they did the blood work for levels. The dr seemed bored with me like he was rushing me out as one of those "paranoid" people. Turns out I was right. Hcg was at 2560 when it should have been a minimum of 12000.
After that the (very insensitive) dr had the gall to ask me if id be willing to "fish the dead baby from the toilet with a ziplock bag whenever it comes, and if not do I have a husband or friend who would" (cue my wtf moment) - but aside from the rant he sent me home with an US booked Friday to confirm what I already knew.
After the ultrasound I was sen to emerg for results - while bleeding, scared and cramping. Was left in the waiting room in this condition for 6+ hrs because the nurses said it was "irrelevant that I was bleeding. I was an outpatient there for results and would be triaged as such" (another wtf look)
Ended up finally seeing a dr 9hrs after arriving at hospital to confirm he miscarriage I was now fully into - passing the baby while the ob was talking about options (less than 10min after seeing the dr, who told the OB I had had 3 abortions and a miscarriage in the past, which I have not, he didn't even ASK me about my past medical history prior to calling the OB - was just annoyed and wanted to pass me off)
My experience to say the least has been very emotional and I've been left to feel more like a burden to the doctors who are supposed to be there for me.
Anyways - i passed the baby Friday night - confirmed by the OB and he also said that most if not all of the placenta passed at the same time (was a very large clot). He said I was 7w3d when I lost the baby. I had heavy bleeding after, passing one more VERy large clot (felt same size as the initial) then bled heavy that night.
That's where it ends. After waking up yesterday (Saturday) morning, I passed pooled blood, then nothing more than the odd light cramp and more like light period, just a tad heavier than spotting since. I filled less than a pad a day, and then this morning (Sunday) I woke up and there wasn't even pooled blood. Since passi g that last massive clot, it's been like this - just light and at times I wipe and its nothing more than light pink spotting.
Is it normal for it to suddenly be THiS light, this soon? 36hrs after passing the baby I'm barely a light period. It has me worried.
