Hi Everyone,

I only joined this site yesterday and just wanted to pop in and say a very big "HELLO" to everyone. This thread is HUGE, it's taken me a while to get through it and everytime I read a new posting, I got goosebumps! The amount of support and kindness in here is incredible and I'm really looking forward to being a part of it. You are all very amazing, caring and generous people.

A little about myself - DH and I started ttc #1 at the start of the year and I fell pg really quickly, which was incredible and had my first scan at 6 wks. I was a little worried as my Mum had 7 m/c's so when I made it to 10 wks I was over the moon. I headed to my first ob appointment, only to discover when doing the scan that there was no longer anything there. I think they called it a 'missed miscarriage' and I had to go in for a d&c urgently as my body had not passed it naturally. I had the D&C early in May. Since the d&c my body has been all over the place. I have only just had a 'normal' af and even then, it's still not quite right - I bled for 4 days, then stopped for about 5 days, then bled for another 2 days! Is that normal??

I can't believe how difficult the last three months has been for me and I really haven't had much support as none of my friends have been through anything like this and a couple of them are currently pg. It sucks!

Anyway that 's probably enough for starters - I'm looking forward to chatting to you all again soon. Best of luck to everyone in here and once again, you all seem to be incredible people - I hope I can touch someone as much as you have all touched me already!
