Is it possible to have a miscarriage and not know it?!
Question:
Is it possible to have a miscarriage and not know it?
When I was 16 years old I had sex with a guy who used no protection and I can't recall if he even withdrew..I don't think he did..anyway that was in the middle of Aug. (a few weeks after my period)..then come September I skipped that whole month(no period)Then in October I finally got it on Halloween..it was very painful and I bled heavily..it was so bad that I stayed home from school..did I have a miscarriage? I bled for about 12 days straight..I did not go to the doctor..I did'nt want my mom to know I was having sex..

I remember passing something that felt like a blob..it kinda freaked me out so I flushed the toilet
Answers:
Probably. It's common for a first pregnancy to end in miscarriage without the women even knowing she's pregnant and from what you described it does sound like you had one.
Edit: I hate when children claim that they're doctors like the post below
The blob you felt was likely the placenta, embryonic fetal tissue and some blood clots, I went through the same thing. My doctor said it was better to have the miscarriage naturally rather than do a D&C because the D&C increases the risk of infection.
