have been through two miscarriages now. One happened Christmas Day last year and one at the end of June. My first one I was 10 1/2 weeks my body knew before I did and starting bleeding. I had an internal scan and nurses said baby was only measuring at 7 weeks and no heart beat. However the news got worse to sign off a miscarriage there has to be two sonographera present and they only had one on site, so I was asked to go back the following day for it to all happen again. This was heart breaking but I climbed onto every hope that they were wrong. When I went back I managed to look at the screen and the lady was so nice she printed a scan picture off for us to keep.I then went through the whole miscarriage at home on Christmas Day. My second was I went for my 12 week scan thinking really positive as I felt completely different being sick more and feeling a lot more tired. However again had scan and they asked how far gone I was and that baby wasn’t measuring correctly. So I had to have another internal scan and they confirmed that baby was only 10 weeks and no heart beat. However this was along wait as I knew before my body knew and it took 3 weeks for my body to realise the baby had died. I talk very openly about my experience as it’s so common and I can’t believe you’ve got to go through three miscarriages before you are offered any tests.
