4 Days Post Miscarriage

or maybe still in the process?  Cramping still comes and goes.  It seems to be worse at night.  At other times I have a feeling of tenderness or discomfort, like when my bladder is full (It actually reminds me of how I felt after the HSG).  I keep telling myself that my uterus just experienced a major event and it makes sense that I would feel tender in that area.  Last night and the night before I ended up taking ibuprofen for the discomfort. 

Last night the cramps seemed to intensify and were accompanied by the same lower back pain I experienced on the morning before the actual miscarriage.  The ibuprofen helped and within 45 minutes I felt fine.

Then this morning I woke up feeling the discomfort I've been feeling when I have a full bladder.  When I stood up I felt something 'move down', but not completely 'out.'  I made my way to the bathroom and when I wiped, I wiped away a large and thick piece of tissue.  Maybe about 2 inches in length.

I guess the cramping last night was a result of that piece detaching?  Hopefully that was the last of the tissue.   I leave in a few minutes for my beta and u/s appointment.

I will post an update later this afternoon.

Same day, same story. I just read your blog today for the first time, but I am experiencing the same thing, on the same days. It's almost eerie reading. I appreciate you sharing.
