Unconfirmed M/C? TMI! Advice needed. 😊

Question

In the beginning of 2011, I was under a MASSIVE amount of stress due to numerous things. I was late on my period, but figured it was normal because of how stressed and depressed I was. Then, bam. I got hit with excruciating cramps (which I had never had before) and proceeded to bleed for a month straight, finding more bits of tissue than usual in the blood that would exit my body. I was 17 at the time, if that makes a difference. I never went to the doctor, but my step mother said that I was probably having a m/c from the way my symptoms sounded. 
Now I'm pregnant, and will be eight weeks next Thursday. Should I tell my doctor about that experience even though it was not confirmed? Is that going to put me at a high risk pregnancy? First time mom here, so any advice is welcome. Just please don't judge the fact that I was seventeen at the time please, lol. 😊

Answer

No it won't make you a high risk pregnancy and also it doesn't sound like a miscarriage. It's irrelevant at this stage and will have no effect on this pregnancy. Unless you had a positive pregnancy test then this happened you cannot say you had a miscarriage.
Miscarriage bleeding wouldn't last for a full month this sounds like a highly irregular period.

Answer

I would probably tell..
It was only one mc so unlikely they will do much different anyway...
Just look after yourself...

Answer

You can always tell them about it to see what they say not going to hurt.

Answer

I would bring it up. They can watch you closer this time around. I had a mc when I was 18 and then went on to have two healthy pregnancies followed by two miscarriages. It's always best to tell the doctor everything so they can help you as best the can.

Answer

Tell the doctor. It does not make you high risk. When we lost our little one the doctor said one in three pregnancies ends in a mc. I bled for 4 weeks with mine and we were aware of what was going on.

Answer

Tell your doctor. They have to be detectives and put your whole medical history together in a picture of your health. Do you have any issues with doctors? Are you uncomfortable sharing this information with yours?

Answer

I would bring it up. Just in case you have more problems. It's always wise to give too much information to your doctor than too little.

Answer

You can tell the doctor.  He/she would probably tell you that many women go through m/c's unaware 😊😊

Answer

It never hurts to tell them
