:( I woke up the other day feeling super dizzy and like i was going to faint. My body and brain weren’t one. I get home, change my pad and saw this. Is this a possible miscarriage? I can’t upload the pic, i don’t know how, but if you can help me out please reply and i’ll find a way for you to see the pic.
Blood clots come in all shapes and sizes. If you got a BFP and are concerned, you need to call your OB-GYN, but be aware that bleeding during PG can be perfectly normal. If you did not have a BFP, then it is NOT a miscarriage. If you think it may be having a MC and you didn't have a BFP, you can take a PG test, as you would still have HCG in your system and be able to turn a test positive. Then you can call your OB-GYN. If you did not take a test, and do not plan to take a test, it is NOT a miscarriage, because you are NOT pregnant. Therefore, you need to call your doctor if you are concerned.
Blood clots are common, and can be irregular. When I was on certain medications I got HUGE ones ALL the time. But again, if you are concerned, you should really call your doctor as they are the ones who would know your history best and be best able to advise you.
If you do not have a medically confirmed pregnancy, please do NOT say you are having a MC or think you had a MC. It's very insensitive to those of us who have suffered losses.

October 2015 - 1st MC. 7-8 weeks along. Suspected molar PG, but luckily just a MMC.
June 2016 - 2nd MC: 4-5 weeks CP
September 2016 - 3rd MC: 4-5 weeks CP
RE 1: ALL the testing - 'unexplained' "Yinz can do IVF or try on your own"
Feb 2017 - 4th MC: 6 weeks
RE 2: More tests. Still 'unexplained.' Called fat for an entire hour-long appointment, cried a lot
I'm normally not bothered by this kind of stuff, but considering there's been no clarification/confirmation of pregnancy in OP's reply I'm actually a bit offended that they refer to this as a miscarriage!
I'm pretty sure it's against TOU anyway to post pictures of your bodily fluids. 😖
