Is there anyone else you can call to be with you - a friend or family?

Could you talk to your gp?

Thinking of you x

HeadFairy · 09/02/2009 12:23

Can you find out the number for your local EPU?

HeadFairy · 09/02/2009 12:24

How old are your dc?

So sorry this is happening, I had one 2 weeks ago, so am here for you if you need help.

I think you should take a couple of paracetamol for the pain (ok to take in pregnancy I think, though if not, someone will be here quickly to correct me), put a pad on, wrap up warm, maybe have a hot drink.

Have you got a hot water bottle to cuddle?

I am sorry.

ihavenewsockson · 09/02/2009 12:25

can you call the docs or local epu?

stick kids in front of the telly for a bit.

The EPU will scan you to check it's not ectopic. If you are miscarrying they will maybe take some bloods and then do another set in two days to check your levels are falling appropriately.

They may want to rescan in a few days if you are miscarrying to check it's complete.

Can someone mind your dcs while you get down there?

ihavenewsockson · 09/02/2009 12:27

sorry HF- cross post.

hot water bottle/ wheat bag is a good idea. have alie down and paracetamol as DG said.

Lulumama · 09/02/2009 12:27

oh bugger see how the bleeding goes.. perhaps contact GP , if it is a miscarriage you might need scanning to ensure nothing is retained which could lead to infection and if it is not a miscarriage, to see what is going on . at 5 +3 will be v v difficult to see anything now.

hug for you x

So sorry for you. Unfortunately I don't think the GP will do much...he may tell you to rest as much as poss and to contact the epu for an appt in a week or so.

I'm sorry you are so scared and upset, I hope you will be okay.

ihavenewsockson · 09/02/2009 12:28

so sorry you are going through this.

keep talking to us til your DH gets home.

xx

DumbledoresGirl · 09/02/2009 12:29

Can you ring him? I assume you have texted him if you are hoping he will see his phone at lunchtime. Why not ring?

YouKnowNothingoftheCrunch · 09/02/2009 12:29

I'm sure given the cicumstances you could phone his work and get a message to him. Paracetemol are fine during pregnancy.

Definitely get a hot water bottle.

So sorry.

HeadFairy · 09/02/2009 12:29

Oh poor you, I hope your dh can get to you soon. Take care, rest up.

I am so sorry but don't lose hope yet.

Try and get a message to your husband.

I think your GP will say to rest as much as possible.

EllieG · 09/02/2009 12:31

Hey hon - have you got hold of him yet? We are here til you do.

Is there anyone who can come round to see you now? Look after the kids?

HeadFairy · 09/02/2009 12:32

Glad you've managed to get in touch with your dh.
