Hi ladies,

I suffered a silent miscarriage end of October and was just looking to start a thread for ladies in a similar position to me, who are trying to conceive at the moment. Would be lovely to have some support and guidance.

@chocolatecake08 I'm not fearful of germs at all. The risk of them are present every day. I'm glad you are better now though Smile and well done for overcoming it.
It's just the lack of control related to vomiting that I fear most I think xx

chocolatecake08 · 20/01/2019 17:51

Ive felt like that since a teenager, i have got better now though, are you fearful of germs etc? X

@lnfb

lnfb · 20/01/2019 17:43

@chocolatecake08 Thank you for sharing your experience. I can deal with others being sick no problem but it's a stupid irrational fear of myself. I just feel out of control! xxx

chocolatecake08 · 20/01/2019 17:36

@lnfb

I ended up getting therapy for it and was diagnosed with OCD.

It absolutely ruined my life i would suggest seeing the doctor xx

lnfb · 20/01/2019 17:09

@chocolatcake08 did you just chat through it to help or have you had cyclizine or any other antiemetics?

I will go and have a look for the gin gins soon!

I think anxiety over it is making it worse as I have seldom felt nauseous. I think the most important thing to do is try and relax! But I find it really hard...

@lnfb
Personally i found ginger to help not sure if it was a placebo effect though..

I recommend some ginger sweets from holland and barrett i think they were called gin gins.

I would speak to your doctor but i know mine was more the fear of being sick than even feeling sick xx

@xpudzx Wow, congratulations Grin

@pandaobessed
I’ve never been late, except when pregnant.
I normally have a 26 day cycle.
I am now 12 late

@Em39ma how late are you now? What else could it even be that's causing you to be so late? I'm guessing it's not normal to be this late... X

@Xpudzx

Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️

Em39ma · 20/01/2019 14:44

Well my update.
Still no AF, so tired it’s unbelievable, but that is probably down to the vitamin D problem and the thyroid issue.
Beginning to think I’m just strange

Em39ma · 20/01/2019 14:42

@Xpudzx
Congratulations.

@HayzCo hmm I am wondering. I've called NHS Direct Wales (waiting for call-back) as the pain in my lower abdomen is still there, three days later, and in my back. It's putting me off my food. Just want to check it's not something else. They said on the phone it's too early to test and get a positive. So will test next Friday probably. I'm using the "Clue" app x

@Kelpies my best friend conceived after a MC, before her period, she has a very healthy 6month DS now.

I've just stopped bleeding after miscarriage and thinking the same as you. I feel ready to DTD now but I don't want to risk raising my chance of MC.

@Babycakes1989 no problem at all - we all deserve sticky beans 💕 hmm I have been slightly off with my food the past few days. I remember this before my last pregnancy. I just called NHS Direct Wales for some advice. Due a call back from a nurse soon x

Congratulations @Babycakes1989 I've also been trying 5 months since mc so I understand the craving for those two lines- so glad it's happened for you!

Babycakes1989 · 20/01/2019 09:35

Thank you so much hayz! Yes I’m definitely thinking of having an early scan. When I had D&C in July the nurse told me I could get an early one next time. Xx

HayzCo · 20/01/2019 09:31

@pandaobsessed it could be implantation couldn’t it. It’s about the right time. Although I have only ever heard of that since trying to spot symptoms! It’s so hard not to. When will you try to wait before testing? What app are you using? Sorry lots of questions! Hope your feeling ok despite the cramps!

@babycakes1989 congratulations on the two lines! Could you get a GP appointment and early scan, they will offer for one at 6 weeks if youve had MC I think. Be kind to yourself lovey, totally natural to feel anxious. All things crossed for you xx

Babycakes1989 · 20/01/2019 09:28

Thanks chocolate cake 😘😘 luckily I do have lots planned at beggining of this year so hoping to be distracted xx

Babycakes1989 · 20/01/2019 09:26

Thank you pandaobsessed! Main one has been (do excuse me) very windy!!! Heavy boobs(not sore), extreme tiredness. That’s it at the moment, had a couple days of being funny with food. Xxx

chocolatecake08 · 20/01/2019 09:25

@Babycakes1989

Congratulations! Be positive and keep busy❤️

Wishing you a healthy pregnancy and baby❤️

chocolatecake08 · 20/01/2019 09:24

So happy for you @Babycakes1989, what brilliant news for you 💕 I hope it all goes well for you. Try not to worry as well, which can be normal since what we've all been through on this thread. How are you feeling? Did you have any symptoms? x
