    Sorry and hugs xx

    There's a story in Daily Mail about how some women aren't treated with the sensitivity they need by hospitals after having a miscarriage

  • I cant fault the hospital (well except the food lol) the staff were lovely and explained everything to me and as it was the second time in 4 months they gave me some extra support xx

    So sorry, Toooldforthis. I can't imagine how you are feeling but please remember you aren't alone with this. If you need to keep talking, this thread is a good place.
    Make sure you keep warm and also make sure you are being very kind to yourself...so make sure you eat and drink. Your body needs to heal itself so take things very easy indeed.
    Best wishes
    MsB

    That article is on the BBC too.
    Had a miserable heart to heart with hubby last night where we both agreed we were just getting through life at the moment and not enjoying much/ looking forward to much. I think he is pretty depressed, I'm not great either. We have been so busy trying to be normal that we're not acknowledging the sadness thats still there. So we are looking at booking in a couple of counselling sessions to see if that helps. I might be able to get something via my Occupational Health dept at work (I work for NHS) or there is a local clinic that has a counselling service. I don't know if we'd go together or separately.
    I couldn't face work today so am off sick.

    Sorry you're finding this hard fran-o, glad you can have a good chat with hubby about it all, it's not easy to have a positive attitude after heartache but I hope you both can make plans to do things, whether it's a holiday or something home related and give yourselves something to focus on maybe, it'll take time...

    I'm going to see a private gynae tonight about the fibroid I have and will ask her about fertility and miscarriage although my medical insurance won't cover any treatment in those other areas.

    I'm taking a low dose aspirin every day and folic acid and liquid iron, me and hubby are giving it another go, we'll see what happens.

    Still feels like there's a veil over life and happiness, still grieving for my lost potential child, thinking of what could have been, I would have been 5 months preg by now....oh well no point dwelling too much, I've got a family wedding / holiday planned for May next year, that might tempt fate for me, anyway I'm not putting pressure on myself, if I'm to be a mum then so be it, and if not then I'll deal with that later...
