Personal question about early miscarriags

Hey girls I know this is a little sensitive and personal. I wanted to know if you’ve been told about having an empty sac? If so when did you miscarry I’ve been told that too and I’m so nervous , have to wait for my 12 week scan which literally feels like it’s going to take forever.

False miscarriage?

I had what I thought was a miscarriage. The symptoms of pregnancy went away, but now they are back and really, really bad... I don't have insurance yet, so I can't get checked out.

Discharge post miscarriage

I had surgical management for my miscarriage last week and I’ve had light bleeding on and off since. I’ve also had some stretchy discharge. Is this normal? Or could it be a sign I am ovulating again already?
