update on previous posting - 'devastated'

[Lake918]

I wanted to send an update to the women I was talking with when I first started posting on here the day of my m/c. I believe that it..or most of it finally passed yesterday. I went for a long run in the morning. I read somewhere a women did that and thought it helped, and in a few hours I was bent over in excrutiating pain, and then the clotting began, the heavy bleeding, and then I passed a big tissue that was not a clot. It was grayish like (kind of looked like an octupus) gross I know, sorry! I didn't want to see it, so I quickly flushed it, and then I realized what I did and felt terrible. Today I'm still having sharp like pains, but not as much bleeding. Do you think it is all gone? Was this what it was like for some of you??
I hope this means I do not have to have a d&c. I go into the doctor tomorrow for more bloodwork and to "talk"...an exam too. I did go in yesterday and my sis(the ultrasound tech) found my pictures from when I went in and gave them to me. I thought it would rip me apart again seeing them, but It didn't. It made me feel a lot better.
I also wanted to share with all of you a poem that someone sent me. go to this link...it will make you cry, but I thought it was beautiful!!

I didn't read your previous post, but wanted to tel you that I'm so sorry for your loss.  I m/c on 6/3 and it was very much like that.  I did take cytotec to help induce my m/c though since I was bleeding for a few days and was tild it could take weeks.  I passed big clots and tissue just like that.  I passed most of it in a few hours though, but did have a lot of pain the following days as well, very uncomfortable for a few days, but it passed.  Hopefully you have passed everything on your own, but it's good that you are going to see your Dr.  Hope you feel better soon, take care.

It sounds like most everything passed, but the exam will confirm that. I had a D&C with my m/c, but what you described sounds perfectly normal. Don't feel bad about flushing- it's not the way you wanted to remember you're baby, and that's okay.

That was a sweet poem. I really thought it would not bring tears to my eyes, but I was wrong.

Glad you're feeling a little better.

I did the same thing when I had my m/c.  I went for a long run in the morning and by the evening passed the sac and most of everything.  It is hard, I know.  Since my m/c in June, I have been running and it has helpped me heal.  I do wish you the best.

I'm very sorry for your loss.  I'm happy that your sis was able to find those US pictures for you.  It is nice to have something to remember your baby from.

sorry about everything i had a m/c in june and i'm still bleeding i also took the birth control shot. So i would really have been bleeding from the m/c for about three weeks i was 10 weeks and 5 days. I didn't see anything just a lot of clots. The doctor said i don't have to get a d&c and i'm happy about that. I just wanted you to know it probably isn't over yet the bleeding! Some days it's can be light and others really heavy. Well just wanted you to know that sorry again. Natasha
