miscarriage

[smile81]

Hi, just 4 days ago I miscarried, I was 10 weeks pregnant but fetus was only 6 weeks... It all happened at home and was horrible, this was my second child, I have a beautiful 7 year old daughter....I have a question is anyone feeling really bloated when they eat? I find that i cant eat much and get really full...it feels like i'm 3 months pregnant or something like that...
I've never experience a miscarriage before, so dont know what is going on and how long it will last...please give me some advice...

I had a lot of bloating and constipation after my mc at 12 weeks .. I had a d&c and bled for 2 weeks on and off before starting to feel better physically  the pg symptoms faded over those weeks but didn't go away completely till after my first af at 30 days post d&c .. I am so sorry you have to go through this .. I hope you will heal soon

I miscarried around 3 weeks but I had a lot of bloating & constipation. It was 2-3 weeks after my miscarriage began to feel "normal". I wasn't as far along as you so it may take longer for your hormones & body regulate itself. It is hard. And worse for you than me. You're Angel is with God in heaven.

I'm sorry u experienced it too, it certainly was nothing like a heavy period! I guess they just say that so u don't go into panic mode...
It is a difficult thing to go through... I hope to feel better soon..
I try to eat as I dont want to loose any weight and need energy to keep me going...Thanks for your thoughts and I hope u are ok now..all the best...

I just wanted to send some hugs your way.  I was between 7-8 weeks when I had my miscarriage in May.  Mine happened at home like yours and was absolutely horrific.  I had no clue what to expect.  People told me it would be like a heavy period.  Boy were they wrong...  It's such a terrifying thing to go through, but I will tell you that I felt mostly normal by about 10 days after it.  The bleeding had slowed or maybe stopped, and I was feeling relatively normal again.  There is an end in sight!  As for the bloated feeling though, I never really had that, so I'm not sure.  Although I'm not sure I really tried to eat much because I was just feeling sad and lost my appetite.
