I'm getting myself all in a state here, so would love some advice. I've not had any problems up to now, no MS, just a little nausea. But this morning I saw a little tiny bit of pink on the tissue after I went to the loo, so I put on a panty liner and there was about a 1p pinkish mark there half an hour later when I checked. Is this anything to worry about? I'm in France so I don't have a midwife to call, but I could go to the gyne if needed.

Sorry Googie. I've just come across this thread and wanted to share my experience.

My MC took over a week to happen and started much like yours, although I was earlier at only 5 weeks. Because mine took so long I had come to terms with it pretty much by the time it was over and the GP had said that we could start trying as soon as we felt emotionally ready.

We started trying pretty much as soon as the MC had finished and were PG again 6 weeks later. DD is going to be two on 8th June, so it can happen quickly and I hope you don't have to wait too long.

As long as you are both emotionally ready to give it a go, do. Some find it better to wait until you've had a normal period after an MC, but that's up to you.

I'm so sorry, but good luck for the future sweetheart.

googie, I know just what you mean - you won't know for a few days which way is up. Your mind and body will be adjusting to hormonal changes and it will make you feel very up and down, too. I did find a little bit of comfort in the fact that I actually could get pregnant (at that point I was 35 and DH was 40), so that made me feel optimistic that I would again. The only other 'good' thing that came out of it was that if and when you do feel able to tell other people you will be amazed at the kindness and the shared experiences. MC happens to so very many women, and it does help to feel that you're not alone. xx

Oh thank you both. It means such a lot to have support on here, especially as we only told a couple of close family and the relationships there are pretty odd/strained in some cases so I may not get all that much support there. My mil is lovely but can try too hard to say the right thing that she actually ends up saying something that makes me feel worse, and my mum is very emotional so I can sometimes end up trying to make her feel better!

The medication is making me feel pretty shit, quite literally as my stomach is in a bit of a state, but the bleeding has started. It's just miserable as I have baby books next to my bed and had bought a few maternity clothes.
