After D&R miscarriage.

Hi. I had a silent miscarriage and had a D&R procedure yesterday lunchtime. Had bad cramps and a bit of blood after but nothing major. Today no cramps abit sore walking but tonight I've took mild cramps and just wondering is this normal. Bleeding has stopped, no temperature or chills or anything. Tia

I just had that procedure yesterday as well as a few other procedures. It's normal to be sore, I am very sore, and cramping is normal. If worsening cramps and etc, I'd keep a note of it in a journal or on your phone through notes and contact. Keep an eye out, but from what you're telling me, It's normal.

I had the same symptoms and etc, You'll start to feel better. Try ice, heating pad, Ibuprofen, rest and stay hydrated!

Lots of rest!

I'm sorry for your loss Xx

I had the same in 2013. I had cramps on and off for about a week. I was kept a close eye on me as I was higher risk of infections etc.

I'm so sorry for your loss x

I'm so sorry for your loss. Yes, this is very normal. Ibuprofen and heating pad helps a lot. Sending love and prayers your way.❤️❤️🙏

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.
