The main symptoms of a miscarriage are vaginal bleeding and crumping, pain in the lower abdomen – these are the main symptoms and the bleeding itself could be heavy, could be light to start with and if the miscarriage happens beyond the first trimester of pregnancy then there will be some other signs such as the the presence of amniotic fluid.

Symptoms of a miscarriage are very often spotting. So, light blood, it might be brown, it might be red but often then bleeding can get heavier and often miscarriages are associated with symptoms of pain, often like crampy period pain but that can be worse than women’s normal period pain and bleeding can become really quite heavy as the miscarriage proceeds.
