Help me please-am I miscarrying? Pictures

Hi all,
I’m literally going out of my mind with worry. Am I miscarrying? I have been spotting since week 6 almost everyday but had a scan three days ago and baby was fine. This morning. However I had a bright red bleed with small clots. I’m terrified I’m miscarrying. Before anyone says go to a&e or ym doc I’ve already tried calling them Botha dM they seem unconcerned and told me to wait for a real heavy bleed-which is not helpful. And the midwife simply told me that if I’m miscarrying they can’t do anything anything anyway so there was no point in me coming in. I took pictures but I jsut wanted to know of find some sort of reassurance that maybe I’m. Or miscarrying and this has happened to others? I have pictures but don’t know how to include them here.

  • It's probably a subchorionic hematoma. Call your doctor. Sometimes a transvaginal ultrasound can lead to bleeding. I had blood and huge clots for weeks this pregnancy and some of my others. They recommend you go to the Emergency Room if you have large clots and fill a pad. Are you cramping heavily?

  • No it’s very slight cramps but hardly at all and the clots are small-not filling a pad at all-I mean it’s every time I wipe it’s just this morning came out altogether when wiping and then stopped. No mow it’s on and off red blood on wiping. Can a subchronic hematoma be absent on a ultra sound scan? Because my last scan three days ago did t show any sign of uterine bleeding or blood pooling around the bay. Everything looked clean and in place he said.
    My doctor was useless today so was the hospital because I’m not filling a pad-so why the clots? I have a couple of sharp pains throughout the day but it’s literally one or two. I don’t know if I’m delaying the inevitable In my mind because I don’t want it to happen or if the logic is that because it isn’t heavy it’s some other reason. But the clots worry me even though they were small-and they were blood clots-I thought stringy at first but they were definitely blood and not tissue. Almost like a period clot.
  • How far along are you? Has anyone checked the placenta?
  • I had a SCH under my placenta with my second. The damn thing was detached from the uterine wall it was so bad. Fortunately it ended up resolving and she's now 5.5. My doctor said as long as the clots aren't the size of an egg then not to worry too much. Also it depends on where you had your scan. I had an ultrasound on a Thursday at my doctor appointment. I started bleeding over the weekend and they sent me to a more advanced ultrasound with an actual US tech and she was able to find the SCH. They don't typically go looking for it if there is no bleeding. 
  • I’m so sorry you are going through this and I hope everything is fine. If you were having bleeding and then saw a healthy baby on an ultrasound, it doesn’t sound like it is MC bleeding. 

    But please, please do not post your pictures even if you figure out how. It’s probably against TOU and could be incredibly triggering for someone who had a loss.
