2 weeks ago today I found out I had had a missed miscarriage. I had the d&c (or whatever it is now called) on the Thursday, then travelled to the French Alps on the Saturday. Had planned this holiday months before & thought it would do us good, and I guess it did.
A couple of days after getting there I had a few nights of horrible stomach cramps, but put it down to everything trying to shrink back to normal & the long journey not helping. Painkillers seemed to relieve it.
Been back since the early hours of Sunday morning after a 20 hour journey (we had 6 hour delay to get through the tunnel) & I still don't feel quite right. Have just about caught up on lost sleep, and bleeding has all but stopped (just occassional very light spotting), but my stomach still doesn't feel quite right (more an upset stomach/trapped wind feeling than period cramps though), I feel a bit sick too & just a general "not right" feeling.
Went a bit backwards emotionally when I came back as had to face that week on my calender, pregnancy tests that were still in my drawer & the bits from the midwife that I hadn't got round to throwing out.
Today I am snappy with the boys & just feel kind of out of sorts. Guess I had people around me a lot until now & am suddenly on my own again. Don't know whether I am still not right from all the travelling or whether I am not recovering properly from the op.
