Sorry to hear about AF, clairey, hope this month is the month for you x

Claire...I normally just lurk but I just wanted to say I am sorry af turning up.....xxxx

Wel got my af today, feel devastated, cried for 2hrs bt had to go to work n put a smile on my face cos with students all day. Jst dnt understand y it hasnt happened for me. I jst feel like giving up so I wnt b obsessing n dealing wit heart break every month. Got nothing else to focus on, like a holiday or summit. My postivity is down th drain! X

Thanks backwardpossum

hippy I agree that it's probably normal, I bled straight after ERPC and it was dark, once it stopped I had a short period a month later then about 12 days of bleeding a week later....then passed a strange harmless blob of tissue a month later before things settled down. I was sort of concerned at the time but with hindsight, know it's normal and we're all different. You could still ring hospital for reassurance though, won't do any harm and they'll be used to enquiries. Take care x

Happy birthday, Dorita. Hope this year is a good one for you x

Welcome to the thread, Hippy, always room. Sorry about your MMC. It wouldn't hurt to give the hospital a call, but it sounds fairly normal to me. I didn't have an ERPC, but passed the 'products' (ugh, sorry about the terminology) naturally following medical management. Once I'd passed everything, the blood turned brown and stayed that way for a couple of weeks, mostly lightly. I'd imagine that would be similar for your post ERPC bleeding? Take care x

Room for another one in here?

I had a MMC a few weeks ago. My first scan was on 28/12/12 which showed that the baby was measuring very small (there was some confusion regarding dates, we weren't sure if I was 8 or 12 weeks at that point) and that there was no heartbeat. As there was the confusion regarding dates I had to have two more scans, with the final one on 20/01/13 confirming that I had had a MMC.

I had an ERPC on 24/01/13 so two and a half weeks ago. At first I didn't have any bleeding, but after about 3 or 4 days I started getting very dark brown bleeding and have had that ever since. There isn't a lot of bleeding, but I have bled every day. Is this normal? Or do I need to give the hospital a ring?

We are keen to start ttc as soon as we can as our son is 15 months old now and we don't want there to be too much of an age gap between our children.

Hi all, you're in good hands here lyndsey sorry you're here but it's a good place to be when you need support.

Hi MrsHP I'm ok thanks, got pretty bad sickness that hits in the afternoons and evenings but I'm not complaining (as long as it's a sticky one!) also asleep at 8pm every night. Boobs getting bigger so all in all I'm hopeful but at 9+2 know I've a few weeks yet until I can relax (a bit, know I will never relax again!) Hope you get a bfp this month

Clairey my AF was a bit iffy after mc, think it comes with the territory, all you can do is have some tests on hand to keep you sane!

It's my birthday today, this time last year I'd just had my 2nd scan that confirmed a mmc. Hoping this year is going to turn out better. Am missing seeing Harry Hill live tonight as feel rubbish but I don't care, just happy these symptoms are around!

Yeh trying not to get too excited bt at th same time its hard not to. Was doing th ov sticks n I ovulated on day 16 ov my cycle, jst need to keep my feet on th ground.lol. My last cycle was 28days to th day so was hoping af was back to normal, who knows tho? Lol. Thanx for advice.x

I'd try to forget about it (haha, as if) for a few days. If still no AF, test again. If still bfn, get a docs appointment. I suspect you'll be told that after a m/c your periods will be irregular. I know my due date is much different to what I thought it should be based on LMP - I must have ovulated at a completely different time to when I thought. Good luck x

Still no af, hmmmmmmm? X

I did n got a bfn, my last pregnancy b4 mc didnt show up until 5weeks n got loads of bfn b4 a bfp. Jst wondered if any1 else had experienced th same thing.x

I guess test? Fingers crossed for you x

Congrats buzzybee bet that has put ur mind at rest.
Need advice, was due today for af bt it hasnt showed itself n dnt think it will, jst no soreness of boobs at all , no spotting ov oncoming period n my cervix is realy high, weird!
Any advice

lynsey sorry you find yourself here, but welcome.

redbird I'm counting those 10 days down with you... And with you buzzy to the 27th, glad the scan went well!

dorita how are you doing?

Well actually it was the Jan bus....

So I just graduated from the Feb bus to the MC thread... Help ladies!! Xx

Congrats on the scan news buzzy so pleased for you. I think you are just 3 days ahead of me.

I have another private scan in 10 days time and If that one goes well, i will have at least got past the point of when I lost the previous pregnancies. Then 12 week scan first week of March.

The midwife also called me and said the doctors had arranged my booking in appointment too late (as I thought) and she could fit me in earlier. So have that on same day as next scan, like you buzzy hoping it's not a waste of time as it is before the scan. May see if i can move scan forward a day.

Great news, buzzy! 27th Feb is going to be a fab day.

Well, that's my last full week at work done - only have a half day left on Tuesday to get through and that's me. Can't wait

Baby with heartbeat measuring 8+4! All good except a small area of bleed outside the sac. Sonographer didn't seem to think it was a problem and is probably just an implantation bleed so trying to not worry about it. At least if I get any bleeding now I'll hopefully not completely freak out. 12 week scan booked for 27th Feb.

You'd think jolly but oh no day 20..... .

Tbh I'm not feeling it this month, DH is away this week, not sure if a few more days would have been helpful!

just popping back on to say hi to the old familiar names, I haven't been here much lately

mumtum lovely to see your username change [happy], glad all is going well.

And backward we're not far apart with due dates, I didn't realise (I'm due beginning of May), glad all is well with you too
