susan I have read your letter and think it is really, really well written. Your suggestions are clear and helpful.

I'd like very much to make a suggestion. I hope that's ok. The NICE committes are still consulting over the guidelines on the treatment of women with bleeding/pain in early pregnancy.

Whilst each hospitals attention to letters like this might be a little bit hit and miss, the NICE committees are committed to receiving and implementing lay-person and patient feedback.

It just seemed to me that if your suggestions were included in the next guidance document, your letter would do even more to help even more women.

The lead on patient feedback for that document is given on the website as Sarah Chalmers and there is an email address.

One of my friends had to have a hystorectomy recently and had to go for a scan with all the pregnant ladies. She has a grown up son, and wasn't upset by it, but more cross that it was insensative iyswim... The NHS are rubbish really. I don't know if maybe because miscarridges are so common they loose sight of the fact that they aren't common to the person going through it, and it is still a big deal to them.

Go for it Gill - welcome a few newbies, say well done, what will you spend it on to a few winners and you are there. There are a few things worth replying to on the announcements board too. And sometimes you can find "I've won" posts in the specific bingo website bits, as well as on winners are grinners.

Thanks - that's a good idea. I actually checked the NICE guidance (because if they had any I would have referenced it in my letter) and found it was in the consultation stage but didn't think of giving suggestions to them.

I had awful treatment when I miscarried bop's twin. I was left in the A&E gushing blood everywhere (it was V heavy) and having excruiating stomach cramps. All I got was tuts for the mess. I got a scan a few hours later and they told me I must of had twins and miscarried one but it looked like it was done completely and wasn't that something to be grateful for :eek:

After thry messed me up after birth, they were DEAD helpful, I was admitted back to the maternity ward and given a private room, probably because they didnt want me telling everyone about how they rip your placenta from you, like tug o war

when my mum had a m/c in 1976 she was put on a ward with women who had all just had babies.

I'd hope things have changed since then, but Mums was in 1992. They apparently didn't have a spare private room for her.

Quinny casters have been announced on facebook - is one of them september baby? One of the names is missing so it may not be.

Also I complained to bargain books direct about the damaged fisherprice books and got this back

Afternoon all

Does anyone have any experience of colic at all? I am worried my little man might have it; the problems literally started when he turned 2 weeks, in the evenings (and sometimes earlier) he seems to have a crying fit for about 1/2 hour or so, nothing seems to soothe him; we check his nappy, tried feeding him, cuddling him, singing, rocking, etc and his stomach is quite hard. We have tried massaging it and this does seem to help. Does this sound like colic or am I just being paranoid? I have read colic can be crying for 3-4 hours, he doesn't cry for this long but I am still concerned. We have been giving him infacol for about a week now and that does seem to help, but he does seem to get grizzly during the evenings.. am I over-reacting.. afterall babies do cry... !
