Hi everyone. I'm not new, I've name changed. I have posted here on and off for a few years - the last time was a few weeks ago, moaning that we hadn't had a sniff of a BFP in over three years of ttc.
Since then, the good news is that I am over 7 weeks pregnant!
Because of my age (tail end of 44!) and having been through mc in the past, the first at around this time, I am worried about every twinge and symptom (or lack of!). Today I have a lot of cramps - I know it could be anything, but I am naturally going to worry. Everything is crossed it's just constipation (TMI? 
).
I have also been worried because my pregancy symptoms (particularly the sore breasts and nausea) have not been nearly as bad as for previous successful pregnancies (I have three dc). I brought it up with my GP last week, but she really couldn't give a toss (our local GP clinic is unbelievably crap). I asked if I should get my progesterone levels checked in case they were low, and she told me there was no point because they wouldn't do anything about it anyhow because I had conceived naturally. She said if it had been IVF, then they might put me on progesterone. I pushed, and she said she'd double check with the consultant obstetrician. She phoned me later to say they would not routinely prescribe it, that a GP might decide to, but effectively that she would not.
I was completely 
at her attitude, and decided to have a think about it before deciding what to do next.
She also suggested that the hospital wouldn't do a booking in visit until around 12 weeks.
Is this right? It's been over 4 years since I was in this position, and I don't remember. But I am reading a lot here about ladies getting a lot of early care and support from GPs and EPUs.
I am sorry this is a bit me, me, me.
I have been really sad reading the posts from Annie and slinki. I have had a mc (just after 7 weeks) and a mcc (13 weeks) and I know what it feels like. It was awful, the pain lasted a long time. I did have a successful pregnancy after each of them, if that helps
