Thanks for your message dd.
Oh my gosh I am so so surprised at your bad experience with sids & kids. For what it is worth, I have been attending the monthly stillbirth meetings and they have been great. The lady who runs it is lovely and the women are all great. I have made some very good friends from that group. I have decided to stop attending for now though as I think I need some happy stories around me and will go to their subsequent pg after loss group and see what that is like.
My cycles were not too bad after losing Luke. I think I got my first period 6 weeks after his birth and then they were a bit all over the place in terms of length - anything from 23 days to about 35 days. I started taking a pre-conception vitamin & found that good as before I had Luke my cycles could be as long as 41 days. In fact when I fell pg with him I hadn't had a period for 3 months
Unlike you though I didn't need 2 curettes - that must have been terrible just to add on top of the already awful situation. I think I was about to be taken to theatre for my placenta but my ob turned up and decided to save me a trip and removed it manually. Let me tell you, that was more painful than anything! I don't know if we are allowed to say names, I guess they will remove it if we aren't, but my ob is Dr Bell from Castle Hill.
Good luck tomorrow with your doc appt and hope everything is okay. I would be worried too with the bleeding. Maybe your cervix is still recovering from the shock of birth, surgery, infection etc and needs some very tender loving care for a while
My stitch will be put in at the end of the month and I will def keep you posted on how that goes. Let me know how you go at the doc tomorrow too.
Sending you a big![]()
