SP.

Must definitely be true then

I have long long ago realised the power of mn when members are in need, and that is why I felt rather let down. It is for that reason that I felt the need to start this thread. I agree that it is probably hormone induced, and as I said it is myself I blame rather than anyone else.

cov-ive been off mn for a few days so didnt see your original thread.
its a horrible shock to discover you are having a m/c when you didnt realise that you were even pregnant.
you still need to come to terms with your loss and your hormones need to go back to normal, no wonder you feel like you do.
do try not to take to heart that not as many people posted on your thread, if people werent about, then they were oblivious to your loss and did not deliberately ignore you.
i know it feels crap when you post for adsvice abnd dont get many replies.
{{{hugs}}}
btw, the gp was an insensitive *

COV, I'm so sorry you feel let down - and I do understand why, when I found your thread and saw how few posts you had got I felt so sorry for you, it was such bad luck it got missed like it did. I have been wondering how you were and kept checking back on the thread to see if you had answered my post, and nearly emailed you to offer some support, wish I had now . Please, as has been said, allow yourself to grieve for what has happened, then come back when you feel up to it.

((hug))

I am so sorry that this has happened to you COV - I have been away for over a week and only got on MN today. Didn't see your earlier post, but sending you best wishes and hugs. What you have been through is so harsh - do be kind to yourself and let yourslef get over the shock and grief.

Thinking of you XXXX

ComeOVeneer · 04/07/2006 21:38

I apologise for this. I guess I am a little hormonal and upset. I don't mean to dismiss the thoughtful and caring posts from everyone, (just felt a little need to be totally self indulgent and moan).

VeniVidisco · 04/07/2006 21:40

No worries lady

ComeOVeneer · 04/07/2006 21:43

Like the name change btw QV .

You are entitled to be as "self-indulgent" as you like. And it isn't self-indulgence. It's grief, shock, surprise, sadness, hormones, anger etc all wrapped up.

It is horrible to feel that you have been ignored when you know that in the same circumstances (but different timing) others have had lots of replies. Of course you feel sad about that.

I've been away for 10 days and just got back last night.

Hope you feel better soon.

And as others have said your GP sounds like an insensitive plonker!

You should come and deal with my garden then. This house pipe ban is destroying it.

Well I was going to post something eloquent and heartfelt, but now I shall just say, "what budababe said" - nail on head moment! Don't worry about it COV, it is your duty and your right to feel miserable about it - both what has happened, your crappy doctor's response and the crappy MN response! (not cos we don't care, but because we were all in the garden, y'understand!). I hope you are feeling better - but if you are not, then don't hide it, do rant, moan, whinge etc and we will listen

ComeOVeneer · 05/07/2006 10:36

In the cold light of day I feel a bit foolish for starting this thread. I was upset by what I felt was a lack of response in my hour of need, but it was rather self indulgent and attention grabbing to start this thread. I shall just quietly apologise for being a tad pathetic and rule a line under it.

WelshBoris · 05/07/2006 10:38

Dont feel foolish x

expatinscotland · 05/07/2006 10:42

Aw, COV! (((HUGS))). Hon, no need to apologise, you've just been thru something very traumatic.

So sorry for your loss

Wishing you peace and comfort.

bummer · 05/07/2006 10:57

COV, over the years I have posted and not had a single reply sometimes. As has been said sometimes not many people on MN or mine seem to drop off the active conversations bit or just lots of other people posting. So don't feel bad because at times I have thought I rely on MN too much but then I've just changed my name and I know many hate that but I feel silly and think maybe if they don't know it's me they'll reply to this name! See how silly have I been Hope you are feeling a bit better and don't leave.

mears · 05/07/2006 23:07

I am so sorry you have gone through (and are going through) this experience. I do know that it can be disheartening when few people resond to your thread when you are seeking support and advice. I have learned over the years that mumsnet has become very busy and mnetters access topics in different ways. Active convos change so quickly now and that is probably the reason you did not get a good response. Also it can depend the section it is in. The 'health' section is not accessed as frequently as 'miscarriage/bereavement' and that could be another reason it was missed. I have often reworded a thread and put it in a different section when I have not got a response.

Hopefully you will feel better about mumsnet now - you have every reason to feel upset. Hopefully you will start to feel better soon. Your GP was totally insensitive but then they ofetn are. I miscarried my fourth baby and my GP told me that it was natuire's way of telling me I shouldn't have any more children

How is your DH BTW? You have mentioned that he himself is unwell. Is he improving?

sunchowder · 06/07/2006 21:50

I just posted on your other thread too COV. I am so sorry for your loss and the response too. Believe me, there have been times I also have poured my heart out with something and have not gotten responsessometimes due to the time difference and others timesI have no idea really.
