Heavy feeling in my abdomen 1 week post natural/complete miscarriage
Hello Ladies-
This is my first time going through a miscarriage, so I don't know what to expect. Did you have a heavy feeling in your lower abdomen (almost like gas bloating) 1 week post natural/complete miscarriage? Sitting for long periods of time seem to put a lot of pressure on my lower abdomen. I need to lay down after sitting for too long. Also, did you have a slight smell? I am still lightly bleeding 1 week later. I sit outside a lot and wear a pad, so I don't know if the smell could be from the blood and sweat mixture. It is really hot here right now, so I sweat when sitting outside. I had an ultrasound that showed I supposedly passed everything. I know a foul smell is a sign of infection. I keep taking my temperature and it is normal. I really don't feel bad either. Also, I didn't retain the dead tissue for long. I was diangnosed at 7w3d (baby died around 7w) and started passing the tissue at 8w5d. I think my chances of infection are low at this point since I supposedly passed everything. I haven't had sex, swam, taken baths, hot tub, used tampons, etc. I have only worn pads and used Cottonelle wipes in the area.

If the doctor advised u have passed everything that's great but if the odor u notice gets worse or continues for too long I would see a doctor just to be sure there is no infection or uti.
