How long does it take for a miscarriage to stop?

Question

my mother is having a miscarriage right now, how many hours should this take for the cramping, passing tissue, etc. to stop?

she is cramping real bad, and there is bright red blood, the cramping started last night, but the bleeding started today, it went from a brown color to a bright red.

Answer 1

The last time I miscarried, the stage you are describing lasted about 3 hours. I continued bleeding, obviously, for several days, but the cramping and tissue loss took only a few hours.

She really should be seen by a doctor to help make sure she doen't bleed too much or get an infection. At least have her call a nurse, OB, or midwife, all of whom can tell her what symptoms to watch out for that would indicate needing medical help. If she was 3 months along or further, she will definitely need to be looked at by a physician, but only her doctor can advise how soon she needs to be seen.

Answer 2

You might want to get this checked out by a doctor in case everything doesn't pass. There is a possibility that a DNC might be needed to clean everything out....

Bright red blood is not good..you need to get her to the hospital.

Answer 3

Is she OK?? it depends on a lot of things. Is she bleeding a lot?? how bad are the cramps?? Do her a favour: get her to a hospital.
