Passed placenta 6 weeks after abortion

I did not have an abortion, but I had a miscarriage and was unaware I was pregnant. I started the nuvaring and my fiance and I started having unprotected sex. 1 month later started bleeding and it didn't stop- for 8 weeks... I figured for the first couple weeks it was my body adjusting to the ring. At week 6 i had cramping and passed a flat pearly gray fleshy mass (it was fleshy) (NOT a clot!-I am a nurse, I know the difference and I am sure these ladies did). One side had a grainy or rooty like side that was redder and texured, the other side was smooth and fleshy almost like a mucosal lining. I believe that was about a 6-8 week placenta. It was very scary at the time. The bleeding became stronger and then a couple days later slowed down to a slight bleed and finally stopped at 8 weeks. Just thought I would pass that information along since it sounds like other's have experienced some of my symptoms of miscarriage.

What is wrong with you people???!!!??? if you don't want kids then get your tubes tide and quit killing babies. there is nothing wrong with an abortion in my opinion if it's an opps kind of situation but don't use it for birth control!!!!

I am clinical nurse over in England. It really annoys me that when people are asking for help, as they are clearly distressed, people like yourselves(picklesbutler) see it as an opportunity to express your unwanted opinion. See as none of us know any circumstances surrounding the procedures, try helping the lady with her question or simply refraining from adding to what is clearly an uncomfortable time.

*My advice would be to go and get a Gyno appointment, or see your nurse for an examination. It is more then defiantly the linings of your uterus coming out with your period. This is natural and it shows you that your body is working to ex-spell the tissues which is no longer needs. If you become feverish/faint/or have excessive pain go to A&E immediately and be honest with your nurse/doctor, ask to see a female nurse as, in my opinion, are better suited to the situation. Best of luck.

yes u should i guess it is apart of your baby and please no SEX until ^ weeks after having an abortion please your body is not heel yet sometimes it takes 3 months please and take good care of yourself and remember 7 weeks and 8 weeks your baby is already start forming like heart and other organs please don't have a next one please. because when u want one u can get one later on in life it happened to me

Can we educate men, too? Or is it just the women who need to be educated? When someone becomes pregnant they know their three choices: parenting, adoption, and abortion. There is no need to preach to them, and I personally find this even more annoying and offensive when one brings religion into it. If you are so concerned about women getting pregnant and making a choice to abort, then go be proactive by educating women who aren't pregnant about birth control options, from pills to knowing your cycle to condoms and more. Before you say,"read my post, I already do this..." just stop there, and do these women a favor and don't bring YOUR religion into it, and don't pretend to educate in an unbiased way while really just guilt tripping women and implying or outright stating that there is only one choice for a pregnancy that they don't wish to carry to term and keep. For some women the choice to have an abortion isn't a hard one to make. For others, it is very difficult. In either case, your preaching is just ridiculous. In the first case, you are wasting their time. In the second case, you are taking their time to fill them with feelings like shame, guilt, etc. If you want to make a real difference, work on equal pay for women, reaching out to men who won't help out, etc. Don't make it your mission to judge women under the guise of being helpful and informative.

Im also very curious about this.... I was 10.2 weeks when I had mine and it's been about 6 weeks since my appointment. I was bleeding off and on for about the first 5 weeks and then just recently I passed a tissue of some sort, it was kinda organ looking.... It didn't hurt like before when I was passing tissue from my abortion. Did anyone find out what it was? Any type of reply would help....

I disagree. I have had two. One when I was a 15 year old girl pressured into sex by my first boyfriend, and one just a few weeks ago. My second was very, very hard for me because of the negative stigma attached to abortion. But myself and my boyfriend of four years know there was no way that at this time we could provide the life we've always talked about providing for our future children. there is a specific way I want to parent and I'm not ready for that yet. My decision was a strong decision. it was hard and I'm proud. Because I made the right decision for everybody involved.
Abortion is a woman's choice no matter HOW MANY or WHAT REASON. So lay of

I had an abortion and 6 weeks later was still bleeding. I almost fainted one day at work, so the doctor at the clinic I work at ran tests, turns out there was still retained placenta. I started bleeding a lot. He said I needed a d&c as soon as possible. Same thing happened to me w the clots. Go get checked you may have retained placenta and can die.

Wow... Just, wow. Have you ever been in an abusive relationship? Mental, emotional, physical? Abuse is abuse. Have you ever been raped? Have you ever been abandoned? I hope not. If you have, shame on you. Not for what you've been through but for your lack of tact and empathy. You don't know what that girl has been through, nor do you know what anyone else has been through. Pregnancies and abortions, and yes, even multiple pregnancies and abortions, as a result of these things happen. Unfortunately, they happen more often than you'd like to know. Do you have a good support system? People who care about you? Friends, family..? Someone you can talk to? I hope so. Because I don't. And I'm a good woman. I want children, but I won't put a child in danger, not mine or anyone else's. Have you ever been scared? Really, truly afraid? Understand that if you have been fortunate enough to have not experienced any of these things, then instead of leaving ignorant comments about other people's lives and decisions, just thank God. Thank God and show some damn support for your sisters. If you can't do that, if you can't refrain from passing judgements in a place like this, where women are seeking help and answers, then you don't really need to be here, do you.

The same has happened to me. I just had one four days ago and I barely bleed. I passed a tiny clot in the toilet and that's the only clot I've seen so I went back to the doctor and he inserted two more pills. Nothing happened again but very light bleeding ( it's not running). I'm concerned because I don't know if the tiny clot I've passed out was a sign that it is complete. I'm 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant. Can someone help me?
