  • I was told bigger than a 50p. After my youngest I lost one the size of my hand ! I stood up it fell out of my trousers leg ! I scooped it up and showed them. They weren’t concerned at all.

  • They used to say anything bigger than a 50p to call the labour ward, my youngest is almost 4 so don’t know if this has changed but was the same for all 5 of mine

  • I passed a few big clots with all three of mine, they like them to be the shiny liver texture. If worried then always get them checked!

  • Anything bigger than a 50p needs investigating. Small clots are normal,but big clots could mean infection or retained placenta (my mum had to be treated twice for this)

  • You should not be passing clots any bigger than a 50p. If you are please contact your local maternity unit for a further assessment.
