LovelyMonster · 23/04/2009 19:34

Hi everyone,

Jools - what a fab gp you have. my thoughts are with you and sending lots of positive vibes your way. good luck for tomorrow im sure everything will be fine.

af returned for me about 6 weeks post mc however i continued to have light bleeding for 9 weeks. was also having pos pg tests too which nearly drove me insane! good news that you are not cindy.

Yes another lovely day. I live and work in SW. (from nz jools, not living there...at the moment...).

hope everyone has had a nice day..

yellowflowers · 23/04/2009 17:52

sounds okay kitty - I hate bosses though. How do you have to show improvements?

I often work in Soho too ladies but I think I might stay just a computer presence - I think I am only comfortable talking about my secretions etc because you don't know me and I don't know you. Though I am sure you are all as lovely in real life as you are in person.

Glad you have had a lovely day pinkyblue. I am off to sit in a friends garden. Loving the sunshine! Damn witch, hope she doesnt get you!

Pinkyblue123 · 23/04/2009 16:39

Hi ladies, what a beautiful day, well it is in Berkshire....

Jools I have everything crossed for you, sounds like you are getting good treatment.

I have still not tested, have feeling AF will be here tomorrow as expected, temp dropped a bit today so I guess that is not a great sign

On positive side had fab day out in the sunshine with DD

Wasbi Thanks for the link. I will have a read in a moment. I did a test and it was a BFN, which is good and has put my mind at ease. Hopefully with my calculations AF should arrive on Sunday or later on next week . Guess this will be the only time I am urging it to start!! I am setting myself to start in July and can't wait to begin again - knowing me I may start earlier, depending on how I feel after the first cycle of AF is out of the way.

Feeling a little tired today.. it must be all the fine weather we are having in London. Went for a walk around Westminster and goush didn't want to come back to work!!

Just back from GP, who did an internal exam but couldn't see anything untoward. Given the relatively small amount of blood loss, she thinks there is still hope. I did up to recently as was still feeling nauseous, but my boobs appear to be deflating now ... The abdominal aching is now quite uncomfortable - like a nasty AF. I don't know how much blood and clotting you would see at under 6 weeks ?

Have got a scan - for what its worth - at 10.10 tomorrw. Not sure they'll see anything conclusive anyway.

Lovely GP did put my July CP onto the computer today, so that I can go back to her and get referred to the recurrent MC clinic if this MC is confirmed.

Having told my boss and got a sympathetic response, I'm now off to put my feet up in the garden for a while ...

wasabipeanut · 23/04/2009 13:02

Hi Iggy yes fingers crossed your normal cycle will resume in a month or so. By the way, don't beat yourself up about what you said to this person you know who had the mc. Whats done is done and you can't go backwards. I do know what you mean though. I found out recently that my next door neighbour who has just had her first, had an mc when I was expecting my ds. Several times we had conversations about how excited I was, when I was starting maternity leave etc. It must have broken her heart at the time.

Yet when I saw her big bump when I had the mc I was so jealous and sad. It's swings and roundabouts really. It certainly has made me a lot more careful about what I say.

iggypiggy · 23/04/2009 11:37

I just did a test - your post reminded me that I meant to wasabi and was negative - so am guessing everything gone for me - which is good cos it should mean AF should come in a month then?

wasabipeanut · 23/04/2009 11:25

C1ndy I think a little spotting afterwards is normal - I got it for about 10 days after the main event. I got most of my info on this from the Deanna website

www.pregnancyloss.info/waitingforaf.htm

This section should take you directly to the recovery scenarios. I found it really helpful.

I think if you had anything left there you may be getting pain. Have you done a test recently? My clinic told me to do a test and call them if it was a BFP - this was about 2 weeks afterwards. If it is BFN then I think you can reasonably safe in the knowledge that everything has gone. Sorry

C1NDY · 23/04/2009 11:19

Wasabi as I am having a natural MC... I do have a spot of blood... every now and again... is that normal? with my first MC... I just had a normal AF and then it started again exactly 28 days later. Because I was further gone, will it take longer to settle down? should i see the doctor as perhaps a D&C may be required or should I just sit tight and wait for AF... If it is 30 days.. then it should arrive on Sunday or next week sometime - I do hope so.

iggypiggy · 23/04/2009 11:13

Kitty am fine - just made me think, that's all.

Wasabi the worst thing is I clearly remember asking someone I know whether they wanted any kids - she said 'hopefully one day' then 6 months later I found out that she had just had an MC at 11 weeks after 6 years of ttc... felt v. v. bad... She likes to talk about her MC, which I used to find odd, but I can sort of understand now.
