"Missed ab"

About: Burnley General Hospital

I gone to the hospital 5th May '13, because I started to bleeding at 11 weeks of pregnancy after previously I had continiously 5 weeks spotting, brown discarging. It was Sunday. They said they can't have a look in my womb, but they can examine my cervix. They said everything allright, the blood isn't from my womb. I can have ultrasound scan on the following Wednesday, because Monday is a bank holiday and Tuesday already full, because of Monday. On the next days I started to bleeding more haviley. On Wednesday when I finished at work at 13.00, I gone home and the bleeding got worse. I called my husband to take me to the hospital. He couldn't come in with me, he had to go back to work. The hospital seemed empty. I hardly found a nurse and told her, I am in bleed, where can I go. She saw I am in stress, depressed, but she just show me the direction. I was lost. I found another nurse, but she was same. Finally one ward was open, and I could go in. I told to a receptionist, what happend. (At this time my trousers was already red) They just told me a direction and I started to cry. Finally they helped me, it was just a minute away from there. When the nurse pushed me in to the ward and she whisper to the other nurse that I am a little bit depressed.---How can I feel myself?! Should I jumping around and be happy? They asked me how havy I am bleeding as she look at me and some red spot was already on the floor. When I undressed they started to believe me, and from that point they took me seriously.
