I would take a pic for you but my DH would think I have lost it. Plus it's kinda gross looking.

I have that with my cycles right after they start back up after having a baby its like a pale orange/flesh color I was told its old and new blood from where the placenta? sp was like a sore and the scare tissue is forming but I would still have it checked out with your OB just to be sure. The depo can be not so nice on your body so if you have any concerns always talk with your OB its usually best not to wait and see if it goes away.

Well this makes me feel a little better.

I checked myself and everything seems fine up there I can't even figure out where it came from. It's odd.

Your description is exactally like what it looks like.

My DH says he doubts it's a baby or a miscarriage because we have been using a condom the whole time since I got my depo shot too. So chances are way less....I hope.

cramps from af are from your body opening up with small contractions and thats how you pass clots it will close tight again after each time it releases a clot if your clecking yourself during your flow just make sure your hands are super clean so you don't get a dust partical inside you can get a really nasty infection from it called strep b or d I ended up with it with one of my babys from checking myself for dialation I would save it in a ziplock after all it can't be any worse then when they tell you to bring in a stool sample LOL

I could be wrong but I believe if it were a baby your cycle would carry a fowl smell as well. I remember that and you would see vein type stuff on the flesh looking stuff

I have no advice....but if are going to take it to the Doc you should refrigerate it so it won't degrade as fast.....sorry to be gross!

I was just about to post to freeze it, otherwise it'll start to rot (think of beef being left out).

good luck mama and I hope it's just scar tissue, like one of the pp's said.

ever find out what it was? I think if it was fetal tissue, it is sorta silvery, not flesh colored.
Ive had BAD af's before, and the OB has always told me that if I have big clots, to call her.

I had the same thing happen to me twice and my OB at the time didn't think anything of it. Come to find out it was a miscarriage (very early). We found out when we were going through the infertility process. The doc asked how many times I had been pregnant and I told him once...he said um...no you've been pregnant three times. So both of those times were really early miscarriages. What a way to find out. Hope everything is alright with you. Mama. I second the idea of saving it to show the doc. I know it sounds gross, but it can be very helpful but
