WHAT!!!! Jesus, she sounds like a real special kind of bitch! What the hell is wrong with some people!

sazzlehopes · 21/05/2014 10:16

Thinking of MrsG and Treacle today - hope you are well looked after at your scans Thanks

Chilly what utter cows. You only need to share your news with people that will be genuinely happy for you so don't bother telling your horrid SILs...let other people tell them the news if they like - like your MIL or whatever, but then you don't have to see their reaction which I assume won't be nice. You have no need to have to tell them to their face, save that for the nice friends you have!!

poly i was flying to see a friend for 3 days away the day after i hit 12weeks and so told the midwife i was away and didn't specify how long for. She didnt ask and wrote on my notes to have it the week before i turned 12 weeks because i was going away - it is fine to do a little lie... I didnt want to fly not knowing all was ok.

Treaclepie19 · 21/05/2014 10:45

Had my scan. Best it could have been really. They said the tissue and sac have gone. Just blood and a clot left which they said will just pass. Means I don't have to have further intervention.
Quite relieved to be honest.

EnglishGirlsReturned · 21/05/2014 10:50

Oh Treacle, I am sorry. I'm glad your body has passed it naturally. Take some time to grieve. And expect to have good and bad days. There is a very lovely mc thread that I'm on - the ladies are really nice, ever so supportive & sadly full of knowledge. But if you feel more comfortable here, stay and feel at home. Sending you a big hug

lindamagoo · 21/05/2014 10:54

Treacle that's so sad but I'm glad you don't need any further help. I hope you are as well as can be Thanks

sazzlehopes · 21/05/2014 11:23

Oh treacle, i'm sorry. But I am also pleased your body is doing the best thing for it now. Good to know you are ready to start afresh again when you feel up to it. hugs.

Treaclepie19 · 21/05/2014 11:54

Thanks so much ladies. I really appreciate the support. I'm in a bit of pain today but have passed a few more clots (think they were clots).

I am so glad I don't have to have any intervention though.

MademoiselleG · 21/05/2014 12:48

Oh Treacle...Good to know that your body is at least being cooperative. BIG big hugs to you and your DH. Look after yourself and take time to grieve. Thinking of you lots. Thanks

And for those of you who thought I might have been really strange yesterday talking about 'the love in the room blah blah' and then adding lots of Envy faces...on the app/phone, it comes up as a green heart! Very confusing...

Chilly your SILs sounds like absolute prime bitches. Karma will slap them in the face eventually and that's when you can sit, watch and snigger. In the meantime, enjoy what you and DH have and don't let them spoil your happiness!

Treaclepie19 · 21/05/2014 12:50

Thanks mademoiselle :)
Still in pain and still passing things but hopefully this will calm down.

toots123 · 21/05/2014 14:36

Glad it went as well as it could have treacle. Sending you lots of hugs. Thanks xx

PolytheneGirl · 21/05/2014 15:36

Treacle I'm so sorry for what you've been through but I'm glad it's nearly over now and you'll be able to grieve and move on. Sending you all my best wishes Thanks

Chilly I have one pretty shitty SIL but yours just takes the biscuit! If I were you I'd be getting DH to tell them by text after your scan. My bitchy SIL is currently ttc#3 and I know she's going to freak when we tell her.

Hello ladies,

One more update from me before I hop off your lovely bus (but not for too long, I hope.)

Scan today was done by a very nice lady who sadly confirmed my miscarriage.

Thank you all for your support, I honestly don't know what I would have done without you all. Good luck with your little dragonlets, I'll be keeping an eye on you to hear how you are all getting on.

Xx

Treaclepie19 · 21/05/2014 15:46

Thank you ladies. I'm so sorry Mrsgingerbread, if you need to talk I'm here.

Me and DH are talking about going on holiday monday. Get away from everything.

lindamagoo · 21/05/2014 16:10

Big hugs to you MrsG x

PolytheneGirl · 21/05/2014 16:36

I'm sorry MrsG. I hope we see you back here very soon Thanks

Sorry for your news treacle and mrsg

chilly your sil sounds awful. Stay away!!

spotting from me today. - more than previously but brown and no cramping. Think it would be my af time. Does this cause more spotting?

EnglishGirlsReturned · 21/05/2014 18:08

MrsG, sending you a big hug. Look after yourself and take time to grieve. As I've said before you will have good and bad days but it does get easier with time, I promise.

Star - I think some women do have spotting around the time they would normally have their period.

PolytheneGirl · 21/05/2014 18:14

Well I have been in such a bloody foul mood all day I didn't dare ring the hospital for fear of being put on some kind of blacklist. I did scream out my bedroom window earlier at some idiot Bhangra drumming. DH went nuts at me, I cried and screamed at him. I've just had some paracetamol for my headache and a little nap, feeling much better now to the relief of the local residents.

When do the mood swings stop? If it carries on I may need to speak to someone about it.

RetroHippy · 21/05/2014 18:55

Star, I'm still spotting. Has been 5 days now, but seems to be easing off. AF due yesterday. Not cramping or fresh blood though, so I'm not too worried. If it carries on I'll mention it when I go to the GP on Tuesday.

DH is wrapping me in cotton wool already. My rabbit died today Sad, he had been poorly so it wasn't a surprise, but still sad, he was a real character. DH wouldn't let me dig the hole or lift the stone blocks on top. He's also being way more careful than me with foods. We wandered round the shops, everything I picked up was questioned. On the upside, I reckon I've got another couple of months or so of not lifting a finger until he's convinced it's stuck!

PolytheneGirl · 21/05/2014 19:28

Oh no! sorry to hear about your rabbit Retro. Thanks That's very sad Sad but I'm glad DH is taking such good care of you. My DH has been really good up till now but I'm not too sure how much longer it's going to last especially if I keep on being a super bitch!.

fancyacupoftea · 21/05/2014 19:43

Sending lots of love to you both Treacle and MrsG. Stay around/pop on for as long as you want.

Chilly I would probably never tell your SIL. Bitch.

So sorry about your rabbit Retro. For the best though about the digging - preggos have to avoid soil. Can't remember why.

I've had bad cramps this evening. Hoping it's constipation moving things around. Does that happen? There can't be room for everything, surely!!!

Telling the Head tomorrow. I'm scared.

MademoiselleG · 21/05/2014 19:48

Big hugs to all of you tonight...MrsG, so sorry about your news and sending you waves of comforting hugs. Retro, people sometimes underestimate the importance pets have in our lives, bug bug hugs to you too. Poly, I can't help much with the mood swings...I sure suffer from them too! EArly night for me has been the best 'cure'...

RetroHippy · 21/05/2014 21:08

Thanks Smile. His bunny best friend is all confused now. When we're all moved I need to think about getting him a friend; I'd hate to think of him being lonely Sad

fancy, I didn't know about the soil thing... I've just taken over gardening club at school Hmm best I get Googling. Good luck telling the head. I'm waiting until mine offers me the job I should have interviewed for last Friday. Not looking forward to that...

fancyacupoftea · 21/05/2014 21:20

I recommend 'Expecting Better' - it covers a lot of that stuff and also dispels the myths. Very evidence based and a bit weirdly written but the information gets across! I've had to stop reading though as am on the birth section. Not ready for that yet.

RetroHippy · 21/05/2014 21:24

Grin as soon as I tell SIL I'm cleaning out her Preggo book shelf!
