@DuchessofSuffolk Ah I really hope it doesn't arrive and this is it!! 🤞 you have such self control not having a stash of tests at home or running out to get one 😂

Just seen my SIL for the first time since she announced her pregnancy and she has a v definite bump.... Felt like I was going to have an anxiety attack.
Am I ridiculously dramatic?? 😩 I feel so silly. X

@DuchessofSuffolk I think I would've caved if I were you hahha. We need another BFP on here!! 💜

@dabs9 You are not being dramatic. It's completely understandable! I probably would've had a little cry afterwards. This will be you. Your time is coming! Come on AF, let's get this show on the road! X

Annapolis35 · 04/06/2023 20:17

@dabs9 not dramatic at all, it’s just a really hard and shit thing to go through. I can barely talk to my pregnant friends at the moment, just find it too difficult. Look after yourself x

God, it's just so irrational isn't it!!! Feels quite pathetic. I see bumps all day every day I'm not sure why hers makes me feel any different.

Thanks for being kind. I definitely need to give myself a shake and a talking to.
Need this bloody period to come now. My tats are killing and I've been spotting/bleeding for 16 days of the last 28! (including may AF) 😅 xx

Ah thank you. It's all just a head fuck isn't it sometimes. I'm desperate for my period to come because that's a full week I don't need to question what's going on inside me xx

Sorry I've been quiet I havnt caught up on everything , yesterday went down hill pretty fast , woke up in a pool of blood and that isn't even being dramatic I was passing clots the size of my palm this happened not to long ago , I've been on a drip for 2 hours and given stuff to stop me from bleeding , I'm pretty dosed up on everything at the moment, hope you've all had a better weekend than me xx

Holy shit Amy! You poor thing! How are you feeling now? What do they think the cause of this is? Do they think you may be having a miscarriage? (I hope you don't mind me asking this).
I hope you're feeling ok lovely.. that must have been so scary for you and Luke. Sending love xxx

Total fine , I'm ok just a bit tired , they really don't know they tested pregnancy I wasn't pregnant, this happened when COVID was around and they didn't know what caused it and the GP could only offer me to go on contraception or hysterectomy which I don't want any of them , I'm normally a heavy period girl but this is the worst I've ever seen , Luke thought I'd wet the bed he panicked and we phoned out of hours and they said go into a/e where they took my blood pressure and rushed me through because it was so low , Luke was more dramatic than me this time , I took one of the clots with me ( my mam told me to ) so they could see the nurse just threw it in the bin disgusted in me . The bleedings alot more calm now they have given me Tranexamic acid so that's helping alot .I'm going back to my GP tomorrow because this can't happen again it's so scary I want answers xx Thankyou @dabs9 xxx

Amy I'm so sorry!!! How are you feeling and how is your blood pressure now?
That's so awful for you I'm really sorry you had to go through it.
It's more concerning it's happened before and they seem non-plused by it. You did the right thing taking it with you - I'd have done the same. That nurse who looked down upon you has clearly never been in a situation where you fear the worst.
Are you on the ward tonight or heading home? I hope you're managing to feel a bit better and always here when you want / need to talk. Sending love. Xxx

dabs9 · 04/06/2023 22:01

@Amy95 it really annoys me how every GP's answer to bleeding issues is go on contraception! The pill made me utterly depressed and when you're TTC contraception just isn't an option.

It was right that you took the clot in, 100%. I always ask people to do that if they can so I can get a better idea of the blood loss, I don't know why that nurse reacted the way she did.

Really hope this all stops and never happens again, you poor thing. I hope you're going to be taking some time off work too to rest and recover xx

Annapolis35 · 04/06/2023 22:02

Omg that’s awful @Amy95 they really ought to be finding out the cause of it as it’s happened before, how terrifying. Hope you feel better soon. I know a friend of mine has adenyomisis which causes unbelievably heavy periods. Will they refer you to a gynecologist?

@Amy95 OMG, Amy! You poor thing. This sounds absolutely terrifying! Thank goodness Luke was on it and they rushed you through. Will you have a follow up? I would've took the clot too. Sorry you had such an unsympathetic nurse. Hope you get a good sleep tonight and nurse Luke looks after you tomorrow xx

DuchessofSuffolk · 05/06/2023 06:49

@DuchessofSuffolk 😣 I'm sorry.
Seems we're all in it together as the June crew! Hope you're ok xx

@Amy95 thank goodness you're feeling better, with your little nurse looking after you! 😂
Don't let the GP fob you off!! Xx

LeopardLover · 05/06/2023 08:04

@Amy95 Really pleased you're being waited on and have an appointment with the GP. I hope they give you some answers! 💜

@DuchessofSuffolk Ah, sorry about AF! At least you will be in good company in June! I felt mine coming in the night but it stopped. I'm really annoyed it's late because there's a chance ovulation will be bang on Glastonbury 😅🙄

@DuchessofSuffolk sorry about AF, hopefully this is our month ❤️

Bubblesandtroubles · 05/06/2023 10:40

Blimey @Amy95 that sounds terrifying! Definitely did the right thing taking the clot. I had problems after birth of my first and was told to do that. I hope the GP gives you some decent answers. Enjoy your cosy time in bed in the meantime!

@LeopardLover are you sure it's coming and you're not mistaken? Do you intend to test again soon? 🤞🤞

Sorry @DuchessofSuffolk . June is going to be everyone's month. I can feel it 💕🤞🍀

I can feel it! Me being annoyed has probably slowed it down. Should be within a few hours! X

SnookyPook · 05/06/2023 11:21

Hi all, hope you don't mind me joining? You seem like a friendly crew 😊

Seems you're all back to the start of your cycles - I'm a little behind/ahead and currently 6dpo so right in the midst of symptom spotting madness. I unfortunately had a MMC in April and after the initial grief and getting through it, was surprised how quickly I wanted to try again. I'm 37 and have a DS who turned 2 in Jan. Hoping for a little rainbow soon.

@LeopardLover both my prenancies started with 3 days of my 'typical' pre-period cramps... Just saying! 😉🤞🏻

Annapolis35 · 05/06/2023 12:00

Sorry for MMC @SnookyPook I am in the same club but a year before. It sucks.

@LeopardLover I also had AF cramps and then it never turned up so you never know. When was it due?
