oh wannabe big hugs and welcome. As ginger has said you can bleed for up to 3 weeks. I had natural mc at 8 weeks and bled horrifically the first day, slightly less the next then much less day after and that continued for 2 weeks.
ginger hope you felt better writing down about you seeing your lo.. I wrote my whole mc story on a thread asking for similar experiences and it did help. I think I knew when I passed my lo too, I didn't see it though but (TMI) heard it plop into the toilet (everthing else slithered out) but was too upset to look.
jools my first AF after mc was only slightly heavier than normal but lasted 18 days!
Mollie - sorry to hear your card experience x
MM - glad to hear your feeling positive. How was your DD's nativity, were you quietly sobbing into your hankie or did you go for full frontal crying?!
Vjay - we had Santa round our way last week on his float and DS got a wave - he nearly expired with excitement!
VM - mother nature is a bisem* as pg symtoms can easily be AF symptoms and vice versa. I was convinced AF was on her way as I was grumpy, spotty and even had the pre-AF nippy feeling in my nether regions. The fact your feeling crampy this early on to me is a good sign Thanks for asking after me, I'm just lying low feeling sick as a dog, taking it each day or even each toilet break at a time. I'm 7+3 today and will be the same stage I was at when I mc on Christmas Eve.
barbie - hope your not working too hard. My Mum's getting me the Night serum for my Crimbo so I expect to look fabulous in the new year .
sabs - I too was glad Alex won but really liked JLS in the end and was secretly rooting for them on the night! Beyonce blew Britney out the water. I like how Dermot (swoon) announced that she was singing live!
scamper - dancing to 5am - yowser! You can't beat a good girls night out to raise the spirits. Hope your friend found comfort at the carol concert x
