Hi, I lost my 6th baby in a row four weeks ago. I got to 16 weeks with no problems at all, everything seemed to be going our way for once, then I had a small bleed and everything changed. My cervix had shortened significantly so they put in an emergency stitch. I was contracting all that night but got through and they sent me home. A week later the contractions hit again and I felt something bulging through. The doctor on call at the hospital was useless and didn't take my stitch out so I lost my baby through it, tearing my cervix in the process. Of course they didn't realise this until the next morning when another doctor was pulling at what she said was placenta only to find it was attached to me! Anyway, within 20mins I was back on the operating table and being stitched up. I didn't stop bleeding until last week. My DH and I then felt ready to have sex...no trying or anything, just get some intimacy back after nearly five months of sex ban. Each time I've bled afterwards. Is this normal at this stage or do you think my cervix hasn't healed? They just said take a break from trying at the hospital not "you can not have sex for x amount of time". In all other miscarriages the rule has been to not have sex until the bleeding has stopped, which I did.
Any advice would be great.
I know, I should go to the GP but getting an appointment is impossible and I'm fed up of having to sit with pregnant women or women with newborns, they seem to find me magnetic!
