I should be seven weeks. A scan on Friday showed a gestational sac measuring bang on for seven weeks, but an embryo that was only five weeks. We were told to come back in ten days but that the embryo had probably stopped developing a couple of weeks ago.
I've been having AF-like cramps for several days, and this morning I've got what looks like day one of a period. I've been through this once before and I know what's happening. My dilemma is, should I stay at home until it's all over, or should I go about my business? Last time I got bleeding at this level several days before I actually miscarried and I had a couple of hours' warning of "the main event". But I've also read stories of women miscarrying very suddenly.
Any advice from others who've been in the same situation? Having it happen in the loo at (my very male-dominated) work is a terrifying thought, but I also don't want to make lame excuse after lame excuse for why I'm not in the office.
