Hi all

I went in on tuesday with mild cramping and some bleeding to be told baby had died. I'm now booked in for an EPRC on monday. I have no cramping anymore and bleeding is now only spotting - is that normal that it should virtually stop? I haven't passed anything so bit confused.

Also, just feel emotionally exhausted i've had a caesarian, loop diathermy and now an EPRC. How long did it feel for you to be emotionally back to normal?? i so want to get pregnant again as soon as i can but i just feel that if this happened again i just wouldn't be able to cope

xx

poor you. you must be feeling completely exhausted and you've had so many massive things happen to you it's completely understandable.

I've had an EPRC and it's OK actually - you don't feel too awful afterwards but you need to take it easy for the day.

i think big things happening to you have a cumulative effect and the more things that happen to you the harder each is to handle. but that just means you need to be gentle on yourself and not put yourself under the pressure of getting pg right away. i would really recommend that you try to put it out of your mind for 3 months, I KNOW THIS IS HARD, and just try to keep healthy and strong during that time, eat well, exercise etc, and then you'll be fighting fit and emotionally prepared to try again.
