I need some help....I think I've had a MC.

My husband and I have been seriously TTC for almost a year now (2 years total). I was tested for hormone levels in April and they were barely on the chart. Something like a .3 when normal is 10. The midwife doesn't believe I'm even ovulating and if I did the chances of the pregnancy not ending in MC is slim to none. For the first time in a while I actually missed my period. The Monday before my missed period I started having nipple discomfort. I spotted for like 2 days on the 15th and it was TMI (brown and light). Then today almost 10 after my missed period it was full on bleeding. I noticed I passed either clots or tissue and collected it. Should I take it to the doctor? Do I need to store it anywhere for it to keep? It's in a baggy now. I know it sounds gross but I just need to know if it is a miscarriage so I can have some closure and move on. This has been the most heartbreaking time of my life.

Call your doctor to ask them. You may have just ovulated late. Were you temping? How do you know AF was late?

You say you were 10 days late...did you take any pregnancy tests after your missed period?

Keep it in the fridge, it will slow it from degrading as quickly.

I would take a pregnancy test. It should be positive if yiu miscarried.

I agree, take a pregnancy test and it will be positive if you just miscarried.  You can also call your doctor and s/he can have you do bloodwork to check your HCG.  I don't think you need to save the tissue, there isn't anything they would do with it.
