After miscarriage

I had a miscarriage 4 weeks ago and medicine management. I had what I think is a period last week for 6 days and 2 days after finishing Ive had brown discharge after a bowel movement. I had this when I was pregnant and then sadly had a MMC. I did a pregnancy test last week and was negative and also a negative digital just in case. I still feel so worried and I'm super worried I have retained products. Is a negative pregnancy test a good sign? The brown discharge has started my anxiety off 😭

Negative pregnancy test is usually a good sign but a friend of mine did have retained tissue and a negative test. If your miscarriage bleeding did stop though you should be fine, her bleeding never stopped

@Sophie thank you for replying to me Sophie! The bleeding stopped around the 4th of March and found out I had a MMC around the 20th of February. Had medical management around the 24th of Feb, had so much bleeding and ended up in a&e and anaemic. They said I had 2cm left but should come out with the rest of the bleeding. Last bleeding stopped around the 4th of March and then started bleeding again the 19th for 6 days and now has stopped 2 days ago and some brown discharge yesterday. I've been so worried. So did a pregnancy test beginning of last week when the bleeding started, was negative then did another one a few days after was positive. Then did two on Saturday and was negative so I think it's all ok. Xxx

It’s so hard to know. It sounds like you’re probably ok but just look out for any signs of infection (smelly discharge, high temperature etc) then contact EPU or gynaecology again and tell them. Or if you’re still just really worried ask for a scan anyway
