WARNING — This article contains some graphic descriptions of what you might see during a miscarriage.
A miscarriage requires prompt medical care. If you think you are having a miscarriage, call your doctor or midwife for advice and support. Go to the Emergency Department if:
- you are bleeding very heavily (soaking more than 2 pads per hour or passing clots larger than golf balls)
- you have severe pain in your tummy or shoulder
- you have a fever (a temperature above 38 degrees C)
- you are dizzy, fainting or feel like fainting
- you notice fluid coming from your vagina that smells bad
- you have diarrhoea or pain when you have a bowel motion (do a poo)
Miscarriage is a very unfortunate and sad outcome of pregnancy that takes a significant emotional and physical toll on a woman. It also happens more frequently than many people think. It's important to recognise that there's no right or wrong way to feel about a miscarriage.
Despite close to one in 5 pregnancies ending in miscarriage, what actually happens and what a woman needs to know and do when faced with a possible miscarriage are subjects that rarely get discussed.
This article aims to give you an idea of what happens and what a woman needs to know and do at different stages in her pregnancy.
Please call Pregnancy, Birth and Baby on 1800 882 436 if you have any concerns or wish to discuss the topic further.
What might I feel during a miscarriage?
Many women have a miscarriage early in their pregnancy without even realising it. They may just think they are having a heavy period. If this happens to you, you might have cramping, heavier bleeding than normal, pain in the tummy, pelvis or back, and feel weak. If you have started spotting, remember that this is normal in many pregnancies — but talk to your doctor or midwife to be safe and for your own peace of mind.
Later in your pregnancy, you might notice signs like cramping pain, bleeding or passing fluid and blood clots from your vagina. Depending on how many weeks pregnant you are, you may pass tissue that looks more like a fetus, or a fully-formed baby.
In some types of miscarriage, you might not have any symptoms at all — the miscarriage might not be discovered until your next ultrasound. Or you might just notice your morning sickness and breast tenderness have gone.
It is normal to feel very emotional and upset when you realise you’re having a miscarriage. It can take a while to process what is happening. Make sure you have someone with you, for support, and try to be kind to yourself.
What happens during a miscarriage?
Unfortunately, nothing can be done to stop a miscarriage once it has started. Any treatment is to prevent heavy bleeding or an infection.
Your doctor might advise you that no treatment is necessary. This is called 'expectant management', and you just wait to see what will happen.
Eventually, the pregnancy tissue (the fetus or baby, pregnancy sac and placenta) will pass naturally. This can take a few days or as long as 3 to 4 weeks.
It can be very hard emotionally to wait for the miscarriage because you don’t know when it will happen. When it starts, you will notice spotting and cramping and then, fairly quickly, you will start bleeding heavily. The cramps will get worse until they feel like contractions, and you will pass the pregnancy tissue.
Some women opt to have medicine to speed up the process. In this case, the pregnancy tissue is likely to pass within a few hours.
If not all the tissue passes naturally or you have signs of infection, you may need to have a small operation called a ‘dilatation and curettage’ (D&C). You may need to wait some time for your hospital appointment. The operation only takes 5 to 10 minutes under general anaesthetic, and you will be able to go home the same day.
While you are waiting for a miscarriage to finish, it’s best to rest at home — but you can go to work if you feel up to it.
Do what feels right for you. You can use paracetamol for any pain. If you are bleeding, use sanitary pads rather than tampons.
What might I see during a miscarriage?
In the first month of pregnancy, the developing embryo is the size of a grain of rice so it is very hard to see. You may pass a blood clot or several clots from your vagina, and there may be some white or grey tissue in the clots. The bleeding will settle down in a few days, although it can take up to 2 weeks.
At 6 weeks
Most women can’t see anything recognisable when they have a miscarriage at this time. During the bleeding, you may see clots with a small sac filled with fluid. The embryo, which is about the size of the fingernail on your little finger, and a placenta might be seen inside the sac. You might also notice something that looks like an umbilical cord.
At 8 weeks
The tissue you pass may look dark red and shiny — some women describe it as looking like liver. You might find a sac with an embryo inside, about the size of a small bean.
If you look closely, you might be able to see where the eyes, arms and legs were forming.
At 10 weeks
The clots that are passed are dark red and look like jelly. They might have what looks like a membrane inside, which is part of the placenta. The sac will be inside one of the clots. At this time, the developing baby is usually fully formed but still tiny and difficult to see.
At 12 to 16 weeks
If you miscarry now, you might notice water coming out of your vagina first, followed by some bleeding and clots. The fetus will be tiny and fully formed. If you see the baby it might be outside the sac by now. It might also be attached to the umbilical cord and the placenta.
From 16 to 20 weeks
This is often called a 'late miscarriage'. You might pass large shiny red clots that look like liver as well as other pieces of tissue that look and feel like membrane. It might be painful and feel just like labour, and you might need pain relief in hospital. Your baby will be fully formed and can fit on the palm of your hand.
After the miscarriage
You will have some cramping pain and bleeding after the miscarriage, similar to a period. It will gradually get lighter and will usually stop within 2 weeks.
The signs of your pregnancy, such as nausea and tender breasts, will fade in the days after the miscarriage. If you had a late miscarriage, your breasts might produce some milk. You will probably have your next period in 4 to 6 weeks.
Remember, it’ll be normal to feel very emotional and upset at this time.

5 Weeks Pregnant Miscarriage - MyBump2Baby
A miscarriage is defined as “the loss of a pregnancy during the first 23 weeks”. Somewhere between 8 and 20 percent of pregnancies end in miscarriage.
Most miscarriages happen before the 12th week of pregnancy, or during your first trimester.

Can You Have A Miscarriage at 5 Weeks?
You can have a miscarriage at any point of your pregnancy, although they are much more likely within the first 12 weeks (first trimester) of pregnancy.
Depending on the point of pregnancy you are in, depends on whether it may be considered a chemical pregnancy or early miscarriage.
A miscarriage at 5 weeks pregnant is considered to be a very early miscarriage.
A chemical pregnancy is a pregnancy loss that happens within the first 5 weeks of pregnancy, so a miscarriage at 5 weeks pregnant may be considered a chemical pregnancy.
Why Am I Having Cramps at 5 Weeks Pregnant? – Is it Normal to Have Cramping at 5 Weeks Pregnant?
Cramping at 5 weeks pregnant is usually nothing to worry about; it usually means that the embryo has implanted into your uterus (implantation has occured), or that your uterus is expanding nicely, to prepare to accomodate your developing embryo, or baby, for the next 8 months or so. If you are worried you can book a 5 week ultrasound scan!
If your cramps are severe or painful, you should contact your nearest healthcare professional to ensure that it’s not a sign of a problem.
If they suspect a miscarriage, they may want to perform an early 4 week ultrasound scan.
Below are more miscarriage symptoms at 5 weeks:
Signs of an Early Miscarriage – 5 Weeks
- Cramping that is slightly more severe than in your normal menstrual period
- Sharp or Severe Pain
- Bleeding from your vagina
- Loss of your usual pregnancy symptoms
5 Weeks Early Pregnancy Symptoms
Experiencing a loss of your usual pregnancy symptoms is a sign of miscarriage.
- Fatigue
- Morning Sickness
- Spotting
- Mild Cramping
- Bloating
- Mood swings
- Heightened Sense of Smell
- Breast Tenderness
Different Types of Miscarriage
There are several different kinda of miscarriage: complete, missed, incomplete, threatened and inevitable.
Complete
When a miscarriage occurs during the first 5 weeks of pregnancy, it is considered a very early miscarriage.
It is called a chemical pregnancy. At this stage, you may not have even known that you were pregnant.
During a miscarriage, your bleeding may start as light spotting and develop into gushes of blood.
As the cervix dilates to prepare for the miscarriage, you will begin bleeding more heavily.
During very early pregnancy loss, you will only experience bleeding similar in strength to your period.
The colour of your blood during a miscarriage can vary: pink blood usually appears during light bleeding, red blood is fresh blood which has left the uterus instantly (like on your period) and brown blood is old blood that has taken longer to release. During a miscarriage, you may also see discharge like coffee grounds or nearly black in colour.
Missed Miscarriage
A missed miscarriage is when loss of pregnancy occurs, but the products of conception remain inside of the uterus. Due to there being no bleeding, a missed miscarriage is usually diagnosed via an ultrasound scan.
Incomplete Miscarriage
An incomplete miscarriage is when all of the products of conception are not passed through the cervix.
Signs of incomplete miscarriages are unusually heavy bleeding and a fever. An incomplete miscarriage can be diagnosed via an ultrasound scan- as the ultrasound reveals whether there is any pregnancy tissue remaining in your uterus.
To remove the rest of the pregnancy tissue, surgery may be performed. This surgery is also known as a dilation and curettage, or D & C.
Threatened Miscarriage
A threatened miscarriage is when vaginal bleeding occurs during pregnancy. Bleeding from your vagina does not always lead to miscarriages.
Mild cramping at 5 weeks pregnant may also be a sign of a threatened miscarriage at 5 weeks, although cramping is not always present.
After a threatened miscarriage, there is an 83% chance of your pregnancy resuming. If you experience bleeding during pregnancy, you should consult your doctor.
Inevitable
An inevitable miscarriages can either come after a a threatened miscarriage or without any warning at all.
In an inevitable miscarriage, there usually a larger amount of vaginal bleeding and painful lower abdominal cramps.
How Long Does Vaginal Bleeding From A Miscarriage Last?
How long a miscarriage (and bleeding) lasts, depends on how far along you were in the pregnancy and how long it takes for your body to expel the fetal tissue.
In many cases, it takes around two weeks for a miscarriage to pass naturally. Once a miscarriage starts, the majority of tissue and blood will be expelled in approximately 3 and 5 hours.
How Heavy is 5 Week Miscarriage Bleeding?
At 5 weeks pregnant, miscarriage bleeding may be brown and resemble coffee grounds, or can be bright red to pink.
This vaginal bleeding may be light, stop intermittently, or be like a heavy period.
Miscarriage Risk Factors
There are some factors which can increase your chances of having a miscarriage.
You can read about these risk factors below.
Age
Women who are above 35 years of age are at higher risk of miscarriage.
At 35 years old, you have a miscarriage risk of 20%. At 40 years old, the risk doubles to around 40% and at around 45 years old, the risk doubles again to around 80%.
Weight
Having an unhealthy weight (underweight or overweight) increases the risk of miscarriage.
Previous Miscarriages
If you have experienced three or more miscarriages (recurrent miscarriage), you are at a high risk of miscarrying during pregnancy.
Uterine or Cervical Problems
Uterine or cervical issues (such as uterine abnormalities or an incompetent cervix) may increase the risk of miscarriage.
Smoking, Alcohol or Drugs
Unsafe, or unhealthy habits, such as smoking, drinking alcohol heavily or using other recreational or illicit drugs increases your risk of miscarriage.
Chronic Medical Conditions
Chronic Conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or high blood pressure, can increase your risk of miscarriage.
Can you still get a positive pregnancy test after a miscarriage?
After a miscarriage, you may still receive positive pregnancy test results on a home pregnancy test for days or weeks after your miscarriage. This is due to the fact that the pregnancy hormone- hCG- is still present in your body- the hormone that allows you to test positive on a pregnancy test.
FAQs – Miscarriages at 5 Weeks Pregnant
How Long Does a Miscarriage Last at 5 Weeks?
At 5 weeks pregnant, the amount of time it takes for the miscarriage to pass naturally can vary.
For some women, bleeding and cramping may last for a few hours, whilst another woman may experience miscarriage bleeding for a few days.
If You Miscarry at 5 Weeks What Happens?
A miscarriage at 5 weeks pregnant is a very early miscarriage.
When you have a miscarriage, you are likely to experience symptoms that are similar to a heavy period- including heavy vaginal bleeding, painful abdominal cramping, nausea and headaches.
If you believe you may have had a miscarriage, you should consult your health care provider.
What Does a Miscarriage Look Like at 5 Weeks?
At 5 weeks, there will likely not be any recognisable shape.
Your miscarriage will be pink or brown vaginal discharge with a consistency like coffee grounds, or bright red vaginal bleeding with clots.
What Does a Miscarriage Feel Like at 5 Weeks?
A miscarriage at 5 weeks pregnant often feels like a heavy period- and often goes unnoticed by women.

Diagnosis of miscarriage
Treatment and prevention of miscarriage
According to statistics, 10 to 20% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. However, the real numbers could be much higher, as a large number of miscarriages happen very early, and women are not even aware of their pregnancy. Most miscarriages happen due to abnormal development of the fetus.
Miscarriage is quite common, but this fact does not make things any easier. It is always difficult to cope with the realization that there was a pregnancy, but no child. Try to deal with the situation psychologically and understand what could be causing the miscarriage, what increases the risk of it, and what type of treatment might be needed.
Miscarriage symptoms .
Most miscarriages occur before 12 weeks. Signs and symptoms of a miscarriage include:
- Vaginal bleeding or spotting (although quite common in early pregnancy)
- Pain or cramps in the abdomen or lower back
- Fluid vaginal discharge or tissue fragments
It is important to consider the fact that in early pregnancy, spotting or vaginal bleeding is quite common. In most cases, women who experience light bleeding during the first three months have an uneventful pregnancy thereafter. In some cases, even with heavy bleeding, the pregnancy does not end in a miscarriage.
Some women who have a miscarriage develop an infection in the uterus. This infection, also called septic miscarriage, can cause:
- Fever (feeling hot, chills)
- Body pains
- Thick, foul-smelling vaginal discharge
When to see a doctor.
Call your doctor if:
- Bleeding, even if only light spotting occurs
- Profuse, liquid vaginal discharge without pain or bleeding
- Isolation of tissue fragments from the vagina
You can put a piece of tissue to be isolated in a clean container and take it to your doctor for examination. It is unlikely that the study will give any accurate results, but if it is determined that the fragments of the excreted tissue are from the placenta, the doctor will be able to conclude that the symptoms that appear are not associated with the presence of a tubal (ectopic) pregnancy.
You can get more detailed information about miscarriage from the gynecologists of the Health 365 clinic in Yekaterinburg.

- How to avoid an early miscarriage
In a miscarriage, the fetus is shed from the endometrium, the inner lining of the uterus.
According to experts, two out of 10 clinically established pregnancies end in spontaneous abortion. It is necessary to understand in more detail the causes, symptoms and methods of dealing with miscarriage.
How an early miscarriage occurs
There are three steps in this process. First, the fetus dies, after which it detaches from the endometrial layer. This is manifested by the fact that bleeding begins.
At the third stage, everything that has exfoliated is removed from the uterine cavity. The process may be complete or incomplete. In the early stages - five to six weeks - the process resembles ordinary menstruation. They are characterized by painful and much more unpleasant sensations. You can find out that it was just an early miscarriage by taking tests for the ratio of hCG in the blood.
Symptoms of a miscarriage
Signs of miscarriage are abdominal cramps, cramps or spotting. However, they do not always appear. It is necessary to note the most typical manifestations of the presented state and their main characteristics.
Temperature
For a short period of time, hyperthermia may well not be observed. Fever is not the most common symptom. In some cases, the thermometer readings really rise to 38 degrees or more.
At the same time, when hyperthermia is accompanied by a number of additional symptoms, septic miscarriage is likely. These are its signs:
- severe pain in the abdomen and in the depths of the vagina;
- increase in the tone of the uterus, which is felt by shocks inside;
- pungent, pungent and unpleasant odour.
All this indicates that the infection has joined. In such a case, emergency hospitalization is strongly recommended to stop the development of the process. It is better not to engage in self-medication or the use of folk recipes.
Discharge
Early miscarriage can indeed be accompanied by discharge. They may be habitual, as during menstruation. Also, the discharge may be smearing, insignificant.
Brown, scanty secretion, much less likely to end in spontaneous abortion. Most often, this is indicated by abundant and bright red discharge. It is blood that normally appears when the fetus is rejected from the inner layer of the uterus.
Pain
The severity of unpleasant and specific sensations may differ from each other depending on the duration of pregnancy. Probably the accession of pain, similar to menstruation. Most often, a similar symptom indicates an early miscarriage - no more than six weeks.
Probably cramping pains in the abdomen, pulling in the back. Their strength can vary from subtle to much more pronounced. In the rarest cases, when the clinical picture is complicated by a long course, this leads to a state of shock.
Another typical manifestation of pain is discomfort in the back or abdomen. Only then are the discharges identified. A similar situation is most typical for spontaneous abortion at the seventh or eighth week of pregnancy.
Causes of miscarriage
The first factor is genetic abnormalities in the development of the fetus. It is they who most often lead to miscarriage in the early stages. Violations can be expressed in qualitative or quantitative failures in chromosomes. In this regard, the female body recognizes the defect, and therefore does not allow such a fetus to develop further. Most often, such rejection is noted in the third week of pregnancy.
The next reason that an early miscarriage has developed may be disturbances in the work of the endocrine gland. Hormones determine not only the success and regularity of the cycle, but also how well the fetus is attached to the mucous surface of the uterus. If, due to a malfunction of the thyroid gland, the endometrium is not able to provide the fetus with all the necessary components, the pregnancy will not go well. Most often, a miscarriage occurs at the beginning or at the end of the fourth week.
Other reasons why pregnancy is terminated:
- Rhesus conflict.
If the parents have different Rh factors, then the risk that a miscarriage will occur after the first weeks of pregnancy increases significantly. This happens if a woman has a negative Rh, and the child has a positive, inherited from the father. In such a situation, the female body recognizes the fetus as a foreign object. Therefore, it is excreted from the uterus. Timely diagnosis allows you to save the child through full-fledged drug therapy. - Sexually transmitted diseases, other infections. Similar problematic conditions also lead to spontaneous abortion. In this case, the embryo is infected at a very early stage. That is why the body will perceive it as a foreign object. In this regard, a miscarriage will occur already in the fifth week.
- Previous abortions. Another common reason why a miscarriage occurred. Abortion is a huge stress for the reproductive system, which leads to thinning of the lining of the uterus. That is why the risk of miscarriage may be greater.
Abdominal injuries should not be excluded from the injury list. Sharp pressure on the peritoneum, including when lifting weights, can provoke an abortion. Also on the list are severe stress, anxiety and depression. Anything that violates the normal state of a woman can lead to serious consequences.
How to avoid miscarriage
The main goal of treatment is to relieve tension in the uterus. It will be equally important to stop the bleeding and prolong the pregnancy, but only on the condition that the fetus is viable. The sooner medical assistance is provided, the higher the likelihood of preserving the fetus, without the need to determine the expected timing of miscarriages.
Our specialists will help you with this. Only we have the most qualified and experienced doctors who know exactly how to treat even the most difficult cases. They will conduct a full diagnosis and prescribe the most effective, effective medicines.
Drug treatment
Hormonal drugs are used.
They at an early stage determine the normal course of pregnancy. Medicines based on the hormone progesterone are effective.
- The use of hemostatic drugs. In the case of pregnant women, droppers are used with drugs such as Dicinon or Tranexam. They are needed to stop bleeding.
- Antispasmodics. Experts recommend injections of Drotaverin, followed by a switch to painkillers such as No-shpa. Papaverine suppositories, droppers with the addition of magnesia are also used. All of them are necessary in order to remove a number of signs of a pathological condition, namely, an increased tone of the uterus and pronounced pain.
- Use of Tocopherol. Vitamin E is an indispensable component for women, including pregnant women. It ensures the normal and full functioning of the ovaries. Tocopherol also strengthens the vascular walls, eliminates the formation of blood clots.
- Sedative preparations. Use motherwort or valerian tincture. The presented measure is recommended for increased irritability or nervousness of a pregnant woman.
To prevent early miscarriage, the specialists of our clinic recommend glucocorticosteroids. Apply Dexamethasone or Metipred. They are prescribed to patients with diagnosed immune disorders that can lead to early termination of pregnancy.
Optionally, a special relief ring can be installed. The presented procedure is carried out in the second trimester, or rather after the 20th week of gestation.
Remove such device not earlier than 38 weeks. It is necessary for a woman to maintain the correct position of the uterus. Also, the unloading ring helps to prevent premature birth.
Additional measures
To prevent early miscarriage, it is recommended to stop physical activity. Especially when it comes to jumping, lifting weights. Rest, lack of sudden physical activity and bed rest will help maintain pregnancy.
Another preventive measure will be the exclusion of sudden movements. At any stage of pregnancy, they can provoke detachment of the embryo or lead to serious complications in its development.
