That's so good you had a positive follow up Lisa, well done for having given the feedback, it's so so important they treat people well and with patience, compassion and the information they need. You'll already have improved the experience of the women who will sadly have to go through the same thing and that's so valuable.
I'm taking the coated aspirin you can get in any chemist or supermarket, I think Tesco was the cheapest but everyone's got it.
It's awful thinking about that process if it's necessary but really helpful to be clear. They tested mine which they removed during the MVA and the whole thing was so gentle and all the paperwork and explanations were easy to get to grips with - essential given the emotional state I was in. There was info on what they do with it afterwards which made me feel really respected and cared for. A small thing but it helped with the 3 in the morning freak outs about some of it. I imagine these things have come on loads over the last few years already and there should be one expectation that you, your partner and your baby/pregnancy/loss will be treated with kindness and consideration.
If I'd passed it at home the same stuff would have applied and they advised how to get and keep it, what would be tested, how it would be despised of after - in our Trust they're cremated with a service from a non-denominational vicar.
Anyway, hopefully it won't ever come to that and your next pregnancy will be as boring as possible with a chubby gorgeous baby at the end of it

That's exciting Bertie! What's the trip for? Sorry about your UTI, that sucks. More ABs? Hope you're better soon!
We've booked our NYE trip and are very excited. It has no phone signal, no wifi and no shower - but it does have a 4 poster bed and a massive copper bath in the bedroom! Planning to stock up on cheese, bread, wine and books. Can't wait! We're hosting my lot for xmas so we'll need some silence and space afterwards
