Possible M/C?

My sister is about 9-10 weeks pregnant and yesterday she kept getting light headed like she was going to pass out and was bleeding pretty heavily with clots coming out also. I told her that she was probably having a m/c but when she went to the ER they told her that her cervix is still closed so she didn’t m/c and they also told her that when you m/c there is a lot of pain which I find to be untrue because when I had a m/c in December I didn’t know I went for my monthly appt and the doctor said that the baby was not viable. What do you think could be wrong if she didn’t m/c where is the blood and clots coming from? Also they didnt do a ultrasound either she has to follow up with her doctor today.

Possible M/C?
I had a similar situation when I was 2 months pregnant. It was horrifying! I had a huge blood clot come out of my vagina with what seemed like a lot of blood, but the bleeding did not continue. I went to the emergency room (I was positive I had miscarried) and they did not want to do an ultrasound, but I made them call my doctor who told them to do the ultrasound. The baby was fine. He is 2 years old now, so it all worked out.





What was it? I later figured out that it was a vaginal clot from sex. Yep! That area was pretty sensitive after becoming pregnant and the blood was not from above the cervix, but from the vaginal area itself. It was a couple of days after sex and the clot (about the size of an egg) broke lose and came out. Scary, but completely harmless.





I hope your sister did not miscarry. I am sorry to hear you miscarried...that has to be very painful emotionally. Please let us know what the doctor tells your sister today. Thanks.
Reply:I'm really glad things turned out ok. Thanks for letting me know! Report It

Reply:I dont really understand because if the cervix was closed then where would the clots be coming from. I had a miscarriage and it was painful but my friend had one and she had no pain at all so they are wrong in what they say. i think if i were her id be going somewhere else if possible for a second opinion. Also they should have scanned her, i had two scans when i was miscarrying. Good luck hope your sister is ok.
