Hi munchy,

I'm so sorry for what you've had to go through. I too lost my little one in July very much the same way - I had woken up in the morning with very bad cramping; went to the toilet a couple of times for pain/bleeding, and then following a really severe cramp, I passed the sac. I too didn't know what to do at the time, and regretably also flushed it down the toilet. I then rang my OB and told him what had happened (I had only seen him the day before for a scan & was told I was likely going to m/c); but OB still wanted me to come in for a D&C. If I knew then what I know now about miscarrying naturally, I would have questioned why I needed to go in for a D&C at all - I guess my OB just wanted to play it safe, but a different OB probably would have told me I didn't need one.

Anyway, I know how you must be feeling, and as StarBright has already said, no matter what you were to do you it would still have been extremely traumatic and painful for you. I really hope that you move through the physical recovery very fast so you can begin TTC again, but take as long as you need to to grieve the loss of you little one. I had a big cry just this last Monday because it was my 'due date'; you never stop remembering them or missing them or wondering what it would have been like if only...

You are in my thoughts and prayers munchy.
