@Missgoldilocks they won't do anything until 7 days after taking the tablets (I'm getting the impression that different nhs trusts do different things) they will call me on Monday and if nothing has happened then they will scan me on Tuesday and talk to me about the "options."
I'll be okay when it's all done and I can move on, it's surprising how common miscarriages are, I've never looked into it before now. It's just the waiting because of covid that's hard. Really hating my body right now, feel like it's failing me at every turn. I have had a tiny bit of spotting today so clinging on to the hope that something is going to happen soon.
Hope all you girls are okay and enjoying the sunshine xxx

@Gems7 sorry to hear all of this hun honestly it's just heartbreaking for you xx completely understand that you just want to draw a line under it, I would too we all would... Is there no movement yet on bleeding or passing anything?? The doc told you to ring on Monday is that right? Is there anyway you can bring that forward? God I'm so sorry 🙏 it's just awful I have no words 😩🤗🤗🤗 xxx

@Laur89 Hi huni, I am a little fed up this morning, had a good cry on OH. My boobs are killing and I have lots of pregnancy nausea and just generally feel drained. It's strange because right now I am praying that my body wakes the hell up right now and releases something that I desperately wanted and longed for. But I just want to draw a line under it all and move on.
Doesn't help that because of Covid we can't even go anywhere or do anything to take our minds off things for a while, a meal out, cinema trip, anything. Stuck staring at the same walls with the same thoughts over and over.
Sorry for moaning. Thank-You for keeping me in your thoughts, I hope you are okay and that little one is coming along nicely 😊 are you going to find out the gender? Is it your first? I can't remember.. xxx

Laur89 · 08/05/2020 10:35

How are you feeling @Gems7?

Annny27 · 07/05/2020 11:55

I had tablets that I had to insert into my vagina as opposed to dissolving under your tongue. They might try those next? @Gems7

Gems7 · 07/05/2020 11:37

I spoke with them, it's just as I thought really, a waiting game. They will call me on Monday and if nothing has happened by then they will scan me on Tuesday and discuss options with me (likely further tablets as covid ruled out surgery when I went earlier this week) so all I can do is wait.
Me and OH wanted to go for a nice long walk this afternoon but I'm scared to Incase it happens then. 2020 can literally sod off!! Xx

Annny27 · 07/05/2020 10:22

ahhh sounds like you might have to call the EPU then :( @Gems7

Let us know what they say

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 16:29

@Annny27 no, I haven't bled all day so far, no pain either, nothings happening.
Good luck for this cycle girls xx

Annny27 · 06/05/2020 16:08

@gem7s I think its fair enough you don't want your son to see what you are going through. And when the bleeding gets really bad its quite messy (sorry for tmi!) And probably not nice for your 12 year old to see.

Has the bleeding ramped up?

@Missgoldilocks @PrettyTulip I am on cd9 and had some ewcm so I reckon ovulation a few days away

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 15:40

@PrettyTulip @Missgoldilocks Thanks girls 😘 xx

PrettyTulip · 06/05/2020 15:27

Omg @Gems7 how awful for you, sending you the biggest virtual hug I possibly can xxx 💐 xxx

Missgoldilocks · 06/05/2020 12:11

@Gems7 what a testing time for you right now 😔😩 I'm so sorry xxxx jesus it could at least be over with quickly!! I hope it starts to happen soon just so you don't have to go through more stress! Xx

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 11:46

@Annny27 yeah he knows, I've been quite open with him because he's nearly 12 now and we have a really open relationship where he knows he can talk to me about anything and I will be honest with him. He's quite upset about it and has gone to stay with my parents for a few days so he doesn't have to see me upset and In pain (breaking lockdown rules I know but I really don't care right now)

I haven't bled this morning so far, I don't think the tablets have worked. I'll see if anything happens this afternoon and if not call EPU in the morning, I'm almost certain they will just tell me to wait until after the bank holiday though. I wish I could draw a line under it all and move on xx

Annny27 · 06/05/2020 11:08

@Gems7 if you are still not bleeding by the morning I would call them. Even though u didn't pass the sac until Friday I was still bleeding quite a bit with mild cramps and passing some clots from the Tuesday- Friday.

Some peoples bodies just takes a little longer.

Does your son understand or does he not know?

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 09:01

@Annny27 so it's perfectly normal then for me to be completely fine now.. I have no pain or even bleeding at the moment. I just assumed that yesterday day and night would all have been awful and I would pass clots and things more or less straight away but I haven't.
You have put my mind at ease a bit.. I was worrying that maybe the tablets hadn't worked. I really wanted the process to be quick (if I wanted to wait I would have opted for natural management) 😒
I'm sorry you had to go through this too but hearing your experience helps me try and understand mine so Thankyou hun xxx

Annny27 · 06/05/2020 08:48

@gems7 sorry that its painful :( mine started on Tuesday and lasted until Friday (and even then I had to have emergency surgery on the Friday as it wasn't all out) but they say it can take a few days for the pregnancy tissue to come out. I felt like a dropping sensation and I knew I needed to push a little and then the sac came out (and that was after 3 days!)

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 08:32

@Laur89 Thankyou 😘

Nothing has happened yet other than some bleeding yesterday and painful cramps for 2-3 hours. It can't be over because I haven't passed any pregnancy tissue yet.. I'm so confused. really hoped it would be over quickly, I can't even have that 😞 xx

Laur89 · 05/05/2020 20:35

Oh @Gems7 I'm so so sorry for your loss lovely, that's heartbreaking 😰 take time to rest and look after yourself, thinking of you and sending a big hug! Hopefully you won't be in too much pain ❤️

Gems7 · 05/05/2020 19:15

@Annny27 @Missgoldilocks Thanks for your support girls. I started bleeding as soon as I got home from the hospital and fuck me the cramps are unbearable (thank the lord for Dihydrocodeine and hot water bottles) I'm just curled up on the sofa praying it doesn't take days and days and also frightened about seeing what comes out.
We have all certainly had our fair share of shitty bad luck on here haven't we.
Let's hope there's no more and all our dreams come true now ❤️ xxx

Missgoldilocks · 05/05/2020 18:53

@Gems7 oh babe 😩😩😩🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️ I am so so sorry that this happened to you for gods sake! Its just cruel 😔 Please take care of yourself 🙏❤️ we are here if you need to vent, sending you lots of hugs xxxx

Annny27 · 05/05/2020 13:07

I am so sorry for your loss @Gems7 its truly devastating and I am so sorry that it is happening to you 💗 there are no words. Please look after yourself and take all the time that you need off work xxx

After the physical process was over I spent a full week just in tears. Probably through the hormone changes and the loss but it was a horrible time.

Gems7 · 05/05/2020 12:30

I meant 24 hours not 14!

Gems7 · 05/05/2020 12:29

There was no heartbeat. My baby has more than doubled in size this week too so the sonographer said the heart had stopped beating very recently, likely in the last 14 hours. I don't know why it's happened, I'm devastated 💔
I have had some tablets at the hospital to start the miscarriage process, the cramps have started and I feel really sick but at least I'm home now to wait this process out. Xx

Missgoldilocks · 05/05/2020 11:05

@anny27 haha good! Every month I tell my OH we need to do it every other day till fertile week but every month I decide I can't be assed. I know I ovulate on cd15 so that helps, I'm definitely dtd at the right time every month.

@Gems7 good luck 🍀🤗❤️

Annny27 · 05/05/2020 09:30

@Missgoldilocks yes some lucky people would get pregnant from precum but not the majority so I wouldn't count those cycles as trying either:)

I am cd8 today and started the every other day dad until I get to what I think is fertile week and then will maybe go a bit more often around ovulation. DH is already prepared haha

@gems7 good luck lovely!

@laur89 wow 14 weeks already!
