Well done for the counselling Youngie, what did they say? I did get a phone number on one of the miscarriage leaflets from our hospital, keep coming across the leaflet and won't chuck it out - I think it is because of that number. Maybe I should just ring them!

I wasn't offered or told about any counselling. Will dig out the mc leaflet and have a look in there. I would quite like some actually, and also just someone to answer a couple of questions I have now really. Um I think you should phone! Oldie I'm assuming you have more than one session?

I'm ok, always better when dh is here! I am really leaning on him at the moment and I have to say he's been fab.

Been to my alternative doctor-y lady today and back on a form of B6 for my hormones and also magnesium for tiredness. She says if/when I get a bfp to get straight in with her and she'll monitor my hormone levels all the way, even if I'm popping in every couple of days. She is lovely, and it's something I've used for years so have every faith .

Good on you pants you have something positive that helps you (and win a baby).

I reckon a counselling session would be a great help.
I think I just needed to tell someone who wasnt connected to me or family, how crap I felt and how we are made to shove our feelings away and carry on as tho MC was just like having a cold and 'you'll get over it'.

I also thought I wasn't really allowed to be sad because my babies weren't really babies yet compared to those people who lose babies at a later stage (or as children). But I can be sad , so I can cry. if that makes any sense at all.

So go for it, book a session and just feel like you can ask and say anything you need to.

Hi all, back from my weekend away.

Still on SW5 as I had a major bought of nausea after competing on Wii Dance on saturday & threw up big time. Then on Sunday nausea again & again yesterday. Stupidly tired & full of cold so looks like I've got lurgy again!!!

pants my mum does competitive illness to!!!

Will start new fred real soon - need a new name or just call it the same??

I'm feeling well down too so shove over in the pit! I just want to be a mummy!!! Why is that so hard??? I keep losing my patients with kids at school & avoiding staffroom like the plague!

pants Alternative doctor-y lady - where can I find one??? I had DH's Aunt rubbing luck on me on Sunday!!!!! Hmm

Fairygodmother1 · 02/02/2011 21:28

Where is everyone????

SW6!!!! Grin

notheroldie · 03/02/2011 08:33

I'm here! :)

Well done Fairy, must be those Ann Summers undies Wink

HalleLouja · 03/02/2011 09:07

My mum is still alive you will all be glad to hear!

I had my 20 week scan the other day and all is ok. Scan lady referred to baby as "he" but could be turn of phrase. Have a slightly low placenta so need more scans well hey ho. Everything else is fine.

Fairy is good. What day are you on? More importantly your body seems to have settled from the horrid time it was giving you last year.

harassedinherpants · 03/02/2011 15:01

I am obviously not only a chav but a slapper too. Have swi'd 5 times since Friday Blush, and now have thrush!!! Oooh the irony.

Fairy - It's applied kinesiology if you want a google. Used it for years and years, always with good results. I credit it with getting my bfp in the first place.

Lou - Glad the scan went well, and you'll get more too!! I'm sure the placenta will move, and you've loads of time for it to happen.

Oldie - any ideas where I find out about the counselling?? Nothing in my mc leaflet.

UmBongo · 03/02/2011 18:05

Pants, I got a leaflet from the hosp, called "coping after your mc". In it it says to ring the maternity unit at any time after mc, doesn't matter how long after, or to ring someone called a midwife counsellor, so am going to ring her tomorrow.

I have had a difficult day today as when I said i was pg last summer, another friend said "so am I" and that she was only 2 weeks behind me, she went into labour this morning. I was hoping that I would cope and be all grown up when that happened, but obviously not HmmSad

FairyG 6! Shock Pants 5 in a week Shock (and a little Envy too!)

Don't know about new thread title, but still need sore bits in it I think to connect with the others!

harassedinherpants · 03/02/2011 20:14

Thanks Fivealive, I might give birth centre a ring tomorrow afternoon then and see if they can help.

Having a difficult day too, I swear to god I'm going to give up facebook, too many prg people. Fivealive my friend and I got prg at same time. We're really close -dd's are best friends and go to same cm, socialise all the time together etc etc. She's due 2 days before I would have been, and it kind of scares me that it's going to be a constant reminder of "what if". Especially if I don't a bfp..... Dh just said I should see the doc in case I'm depressed. No!! It'll only be 3 weeks tomorrow since the awful scan!

And breathe..... sorry a me, me, me rant Sad.

UmBongo · 03/02/2011 23:07

Don't worry about ranting - its what we are here for! And don't worry about what-ifs. Give it a try with the hosp, I am definitely ringing tomorrow as I am going nuts! Can't remember stuff.

We will get preg again, we have done it, we can do it again. Until that time we will just have to try and cuddle our friends babies without crying over them! I manage with my niece now and she is only 4 months now, so we were both preg at the same time (briefly!)(my sil that is, not my niece!)

My best what-if is another friends child who, I STUPIDLY worked out, is the age my second child would be if I had conceived within the 3 months it took to get pg with ds. This little boy is gorgeous, and was an accident, but is much loved! (Oh and he is nearly 2!)

It is only 3 weeks Pants, time does help, honest - well it makes the howling fits further apart!Blush

Sorry if this is not making sense, I am now going to bed. Night all!

UmBongo · 04/02/2011 13:48

I have just booked appt with midwife counsellor in our hospital for wednesday. Will take tissues!

Have you managed to get some help Pants?

notheroldie · 04/02/2011 15:07

Well done umbongo I just blubbed a lot when I was in with my counsellor. But it felt good.

Dont be afraid to tell them exactly how you feel and it really helps.

pants I hope you find someone who does counselling.

And you WILL get a BFP again, just when you are ready. Thats my philosophical approach. I hope it helps. X

Fairygodmother1 · 04/02/2011 21:29

Lou I seem to have 31 day cycles at the mo so fingers crossed although am on day 23 & still getting EWCM!!! Hmm

Aww big hugs Um (())

Facebook is a nightmare - pregnant people have slowed down at the mo. Work is really annoying me at the mo. I want a BFP & maternity leave!!!!!

pants keep smiling honey, it's hard but can't let it grind us down. It's gotta happen for all of us soon!!

Trying to think of a witty title for new thread including sore bits!

Fairygodmother1 · 04/02/2011 21:44

How about - First you dream it, then you do it & along come the sore bits - ?

Or
If you smoke after SWI you will get sore bits Hmm

or
We're not cheap but sore bits are on special this week (actually like this one!!!) Grin

HalleLouja · 04/02/2011 22:51

Like the third one xx

Fairygodmother1 · 05/02/2011 09:50
