Hi,

Have niggling tooth which flares up when stressed and think all stress of mc this last week exacerbated it and I looked like a chipmunk yesterday. Have absess, but dentist told me I am entitled to free dental care until what would have been due date,don't know if thats common knowledge but thought I would share

that's interesting.

I had in my head that if you had a MC you wouldn't qualify, but if you lost a baby after 20 weeks you would. May have mixed that up with mat leave entitlements though. Am sure someone more knowledgable will correct me.

Hope your pain (all of it) is better soon.

Hmmmm I have just googled it and I could be getting phonecall from dentist as it looks like you only qualify if you have mc after 24 weeks ! Strange though as dentist checked with someone else, will wait and see..
