i'm a regular on this board, not posted for a while. it's six weeks since my third miscarriage...it's been a difficult time but i've been feeling a lot better recently.
but now i feel i'm slipping back down into the gloom again....my period still has not come(i'm def not pregnant again) which is a surprise- with my last two miscarriages my period came back after a month.I've got all my blood test results back from the GP and they're clear, so no answers there, though of course it's a good thing they can't find anything wrong.
I've just read (skimmed) Lesley Regan's book on miscarriage and if anything that left me feeling worse as most of it didn't seem to apply to me. (i already have a DS, 20 months; and don't seem to have a problem getting pregnant, touch wood.)
My GP recommended progesterone tablets next time i get preg but regan's book makes it clear this is a total waste of time and if anything is worse than nothing as it will delay but not prevent a miscarriage
And finally my referral to the recurrent miscarriage clinic got lost by the NHS or in the post so a month went by when i wasn't even on the waiting list; and i have to wait another month now for the appointment.
it all feels really crap. It seems there's no explanation for all my miscarriages; and i just can't imagine myself having a successful pregnancy. the whole saga seems to go on and on. and then i worry that this negativity might actually affect my chances in itself.
does anyone else feel like this?
