Hello, reverting to my 'not telling the world about being up the duff yet' name change, as I went and had a missed miscarriage. Poor little embryo died at 6 weeks but we didn't know until bleeding and scan at 11 weeks (on the 17th). I'm letting things take their course and scoffing the cocodamol as I'm still partially breastfeeding my 15-month-old DD (and she won't sleep without it!)
I'm a bit puzzled about my numb feet though. It's mostly on the side where I have an ancient back injury and some sciatica, it's intermittent, and is mostly alleviated by elevation. It's been happening for about 2-3-4 weeks, ever since some ouchie calf cramps on the same side, and the back is playing up, too. I attributed it to tarsal tunnel, but I thought you couldn't get that this early on, and anyway, I'm having an MC! I think it's been easing off for the last couple of days, but as it's intermittent, it's hard to be sure.
I had nothing like this in my last pregnancy; if anything, my back improved (probably all that relaxin).
I suppose I should see/ask someone but don't really relish sitting in a crowded, stuffy waiting room feeling pukey and crampy and headachey and sorry for myself, with a 15-month-old to entertain.
Any suggestions as to what's going on, and WWYD, much appreciated!
