Miscarriage?!


Question: I have been having troubles with my period for around 8 months now (after going off the pill). I had a period that ended 8th Nov 2007, then not one again until the 9th of January 2008. This january period was fairly normal i thought, less pain and maybe a bit more clotting. This period finished today. (no blood in the morning). At around 7 pm i went to the toilet to pee and felt something 'flop' out of me. It felt pretty big. So, wanting to know what it was, i dug it out. It was a large blob of blood, but it was all bound by a membrane and looked veiny. it also had a cord attached to it which was lumpy all the way along. The large part was curved and had what looked like a stubby tail at one end and at the other, there was a dark spot in the middle. After this came out, I have started bleeding quite a bit and am having some abdominal pain. What was this? Was it a miscarriage? Any similar experiences? What do you think?

This certainly sounds like it was a misscariage. I had a similar thing, where I had pink discharge (which is probably implantation bleeding) then a few days after I should have had my period I got pains in my stomach and large clots. So I'm not sure what mine was, but the way you describe the blob it certainly sounds like it was for you.

Apprantly early on, a lot of people misscarry around the time of their periods so many don't even notice much different.

Good luck if you are trying to conceive.

I think if this is a straight up story then i would imagine anyone would go to their doctor asap or even a&e with this so they can take a look at it and check you over too.

sounds like it and if you find out it was i'm sorry for your lose. but similar happened to me a fair few years ago but didn't look how you explained, and i bleed with pain for a few days once the lumpy clot came out of me the bleeding lessened and the cramping starting subsiding, i took it to the docs and he said he wasn't sure if it was a miscarriage or a big clot. so still to this day i am not sure but i'd definately go to the docs with this thing or even the er.
