After spending 6 hours waiting in A&E after a small bleed I was seen by a very rude doctor in the GAU ward who told me I had almost certainly miscarried, without even scanning me, and that my cervix was open. They then sent us home with no advice other than ‘if you get any pain, manage it in the usual ways’.
Went for a scan days later only to be told both of these diagnoses were incorrect - my cervix was closed and baby was doing fine! We had a horrific few days thinking we’d lost our first baby.
