    Air cooled I am sorry about the delay you are being put through. I hope you hear aomething soon.

    Tt39 - step away from google!! As lily said trust the Sonographer xx

    PLMBL-hope your hairdressing visit goes well. Nothing like a trip to the hairdressers!

    Afm - all tests have now come back completely normal. Don't know how I feel about that I know that sounds silly. I wanted a reason why my baby died but thankful my body is all normal if that makes sense xx

    I'm glad scan was ok ttc39 xx xx

    Hello Air Cooled xx I hope they get back to you soon.

    Work dragged today. I was so tired my eyes were stinging

    I did something naughty and lied to my manager. I told her I had to leave early tomorrow for pre-op
    she doesn't know about the mmc .. just that it's a gynae related minor op im having on Wednesday

    my auntie can't take me any more. so for a while I was a little screwed. till my uncle said that he'll take me. just hope he doesn't drop out otherwise I have no way of getting to the hospital. it's a 45 min drive away.

    tmi ... sorry
    consultant at hospital on Friday said to watch out for discharge. I have a fair bit. it's clear. I don't know what im supposed to do though? no point phoning tomorrow, as i'll be going in on Wednesday for op. guess I could mention it then?

    depression is getting a lot worse. i'm on medication that psychiatrist prescribed earlier this year but it's not doing anything at all. I take it at night as it's supposed to help me sleep. it's "safe" during pregnancy.

    however since falling pregnant all that time ago, despite being exhausted all the time, I just don't sleep. it's dragging me down even further.

    i'm not sure if I should tell psych or not. im supposed to be starting CAT in the new year ...
  • did anyone else suffer with hair loss after their mc? after reading up on it it's apparently fairly common but that isn't making me feel any better. everytime I brush it handfuls come out, even more when I wash it. it's getting me down, as if the mc didn't make me feel bad enough :(

    Hiya Hun,
    Glad your uncle is taking you to hospital .

    Don't feel bad about going a bit earlier today from work - I don't know how you ve managed all weekend. I am signed off for another week - back Tuesday - whereas you've just worked :-( Think you should take some time off though xx

    Def speak to psych about what you are feeling now and hope the sleep can be got back x

    Big hugs to you xxx

    Hi Firey, yes i was and am the same currently. Loads of hairloss and im on my 2nd cycle after mc and its still going strong.

    I'm guessing its not too different to after having a baby full term as it was the same (and very common) for me when i had my DD, loads of hairloss which eventually petered out.

    I'm looking out for a sudden change in that hoping it will give me a clue for when I get pg again!!

    Good luck ladies xx

    rosie - big hugs sweetie, I hope today is a better day for you. FWIW, I think it would be a good idea to tell the pysch about how you're feeling at the moment. They're there to help you, and I'm sure they'd want to know if there was anything else they could be doing to get you through this. Lack of sleep is awful, it just drags everything down. Maybe they can help you with that, and then everything else can seem a lot brighter too when you're not so exhausted all the time.

    Hope it all goes ok tomorrow, thinking of you xx.
