    Ive been there myself, and sometimes, it just 'helps' to write it all down, blurt it all out, something, just to get it off your chest and let go of all your feelings and thoughts...


    Yes it does. I probably come across as matter of fact and cold, which I don't mean to be, but it does help to write it down for sure :)

    I've just caught up with this thread now, I'm so sorry to hear you lost the baby... please take good care of yourself.
    I'm an adult and I can eat whatever I want whenever I want and I wish someone would take this power from me.

    Noooo you don't. You come across as a level headed lady - mum of three and wife of one, who knows how to cope when sad things happen. :kisses3:

    You cannot live as I have lived an not end up like me.

    Oi you lot - please :heart:GIVE BLOOD :heart: - you never know when you and yours might need it back! 67 pints so far.

    I totaly agree with Penny Watcher!!! I think you are very brave! I do come across as cruel and cold sometimes, but I am not - it is just the way I write (talk)...

    Dippy he may not know what to say to you, men are like that, they don't understand what women go through and the pain they can get, I totally agree with you, stay in bed all weekend to give your body and you a rest and let him take care of the kids.

    Dippychick, please, take care of yourself. Go to the hospital and ask them to check you. You are right - don't do anythign this weekend. You need rest. And explain to the childrem that mummy is not well and needs some rest, so with any queries they may have or anything they want to do they should go to dad. And do not disturb the mum!!!! She is on "holiday" and will be back next week. Oh, and they are welcome to bting yu cups of tea and cookies, which they will be doing with the dad this weekend!!!

    I'm not surprised you're both snapping - you've both been through a lot the past few days. Is this out of character for him? I was so distraught at my first miscarriage that I didn't appreciate at all that my OH had lost something too. (Was a bit p***d off that he went to a boxing match when I was in hospital with my second!) He's an ex OH now..

    I'm no medical expert, but what you're describing you're going through doesn't sound normal to me. I've miscarried three times, and had heavy bleeding and cramps (and actually felt contractions) but not as bad as you describe it. My miscarriages all happened at 12-13 weeks. I think you should go to hospital to be sure.

    I started bleeding again last night,about as much as a light period,still the same this morning so I think this is the start.
    This might sound bad but I wish it would make it`s mind up whether it`s staying or not,this is starting to seriously do my head in.

    I have open access to the EPAC so if it starts getting bad I`m going in.Due to have my scan next friday morning but if I continue to bleed then I`m gunna ask if it can be done earlier to see if my womb is empty.

    Dippy I really hope you do go into hospital today for a check up,but please let us all know whats happening.xxxx

    p.s Let the hubby help you with the kids and house and you take it easy but still let him know you love him.

    Three miscarriages.. oh dear.. have you had a baby since?

    EPU is closed on Fridays.. Saturdays and Sundays. I have to go to the Drs or A&E which I might do later. Probably best going to the hospital as the Dr will only refer me there anyway.

    I wonder how they can tell how much blood I am losing? At the Drs?

    I've taken 2 500mg of Paracetamol now so if that doesn't help in half an hour I am going to go up as soon as I can. The earlier the better.

    I never imagined contractions with a 6 week old foetus.
