Following confirmation of an early pregnancy loss: information for patients from the Early Pregnancy Assessment Service (EPAS)

Warning

We are sorry you are leaving hospital with confirmation of a miscarriage. Everybody reacts differently to the loss of their pregnancy. You may be surprised at your feelings and may need time to grieve. Some women are left feeling sad, depressed, guilty, angry or isolated. Others feel philosophical and recover quickly from their miscarriage. There is no right or wrong way to feel.
