Well, my worst fears have started to emerge. I had a very small amount of brown blood about the size of 2p pence. I have very mild twinges where it has implanted as this area was tender from my m/c 4/5 months ago. I am sseing the Doc at 9.40 but he is not very good. We have no EPU and I don't have a midwife. This is not the time my P was due either. I am so worried this will happen again. Any advice would be so appreciated. Mears, Leese etc.. are you around ?????

You have all my sympathies, Quackers. I hope that you get all of the love and support that you need.
Thinking of you, Love Frog xx

Quackers, sorry to hear that your fears were confirmed. Thinking of you and wishing you lots of luck when you feel ready to try again.

Quackers, I'm so sorry - you had me in a right state yesterday - was even talking to DP about you.
As Wills said, you sound amazingly strong - i hope that finding out this early made some difference.

Keep your head up and enjoy trying again in 3 months - make sure you keep posting in the mean time if you can.

Take Care

Just to add that my thoughts are also with you Quackers. Take care of yourself xxxx

quackers · 05/08/2003 10:03

Thanks all, you've been great, can't beleive you were telling your DP Blue star! Bless you! I've never seen so much blood! I went through 7 pads in 30 mins yesteday - full ones- sorry v gory!! Settled a bit now though.
Thanks for all your thoughts. It actually helps too that hardly anyone knew - I can just carry on as normal, last time I was almost 4 months so everyone knew and it was a real pain!

Oh Quackers I am so sorry. It is such a terrible and sad thing to go through. I remember when I had mine with the heavy blood loss it was very frightening but stragnely I felt better for all the blood and pain than I did when it was "done for me" IYKWIM. Its wonderful that you are managing to feel so positive about it. As you say being in limbo is so horrible that in some ways whatever comes after has to be better. At least you can move on now. Remember we are all here for the moments when you don't feel quite so positive.
Big Hugs.

Quackers, so sorry to hear your sad news-i've been away for a few days and came back to this heartbeak for you this morning......just don't know what to say other than i'm thinking of you and look after yourself...take care lol chatee xx

Tillysmummy · 05/08/2003 10:30

Quackers, I can only echo the others. Big hug and glad you are sounding so philosophical about it. xxxxx I hope I can be as brave as you if needed.
Mears, thanks for the info. I agree about the early scan thing. When I phoned the hospital to book they said they wouldn't do it before 7 weeks. When I go Thursday I will just be 7 weeks. No more bleeding since yesterday's brown spotting. Thanks again for your advice and letting me pick your brains. I am preparing myself for inconclusive results tomorrow and having to have another scan.

dot1 · 05/08/2003 11:05

just to say how sorry I am, Quackers. Take care,

quackers · 05/08/2003 12:51

TM,you shouldn't have inconclusive results at 7 weeks. I'm told they see the fetal pole at 6 and a heartbeat at 7, they will know by its size etcc how well you are doing and if it is viable. Please don't worry, you've stopped bleeding and it look positive for you. Don't get so anxious like I did and it never got me anywhere anyway. Be strong for your littl'n. Take care xxx

TM - agree with Quackers. I had a scan at 7 + 2 and there was a very distinct heartbeat at that time.

Good luck

Tillysmummy · 05/08/2003 14:55

Quackers, you are so sweet. Thank you so much for finding time to give me encouragement when you have been so much. I shall miss our chats. Do still come on if you can won't you ?
Wills - thanks also for the encouragement. Hopefully there will be a heartbeat. Im just keeping everything crossed.

Demented · 05/08/2003 15:29

Quackers, I am so sorry to hear your news, I really hoped things were going to turn out differently. Hugs.

Also hugs to Tillysmummy, hope you get some good news at your scan.

mears · 05/08/2003 16:39

Sorry to read of your miscarriage Quackers. I couldn't wait the 3 months after mine to try again and got pregnant after having my second period. Hope all goes well for you next time - no reason why it shouldn't. All the best, mears.

willow2 · 05/08/2003 18:24

Hey Quackers - just to say I'm really sorry to hear your news and I'm thinking of you.

bossykate · 05/08/2003 19:50

quackers, you sound very strong, but don't forget to take care of yourself if/when you need to. once again, so sorry this has happened.

bluecow · 05/08/2003 20:03

Quackers - so sorry to read your news. Keep positive and keep looking forward.

quackers · 05/08/2003 20:21

Thanks again for all your lovely wishes. Doing ok, bleeding settled a bit now, still lots of clots but it is complete. Going for another scan Fri to just check my bits and make sure they're ok. Mears after the last m/c I was very impatient to get going again and I don't think in my case it did me any good. I did wait 3 cycles because I was almost 4 months and had many many complications. This time I will wait and make sure my periods are completely normal and maybe have that LH test done to make sure hormones are ok. Maybe even go to consultant and get hiis opinion but I am MUCH more positive than with the last one.

Quackers
It is good to read you being so positive and the bleeding and cramping are getting less. I am sure that all of us who met on the m/c thread will be succesful in the near future. Enjoy your garden and time to yourself this week.
