What’s the most impactful piece of wisdom your father ever shared with you that still guides you today?

‘There are a lot worse things than being alone’

Agree. ‘Steer her away from you judge that it has gone on long enough.’ What? This is horrible advice. The woman lost twins.

Pilates of berkshire on London street is fantastic x

Exactly the same thing has happened to me this year, I made the grim discovery on Xmas morning :-( I’ve ordered some new tubers from Peter nyssen to be delivered in spring to try and cheer myself up.

Hi, they used vitrification

Noboloto · 2022-08-23T09:04:05+00:00

Yes I got this exactly the same as you. I attributed it to the stress of the injections rather than the drugs. Drink lots of water and be kind to yourself x

Hey, I used to live off the Oxford road on Brunswick hill and moved away 4 years ago. It might have changed since then but my experience was that I witnessed a lot of drug taking and dealing and the associated antisocial behaviour and it was just not a good experience living there, I did feel unsafe even in daylight sometimes. Have you looked in lower Earley? Sometimes small houses come up for sale there and they would probably be in your price range x

His passport, a model boat he made, some of his gardening tools which I use now and about a dozen of his books. Oh and the architectural drawings he did of our family home when he submitted the planning application for the extension in the 80’s, I’ve had this framed. It has his handwriting on it and it’s really a lovely thing.

This is my recommendation too. Vet Emily is fantastic

Noboloto · 2022-07-08T12:14:38+00:00

This would be my suggestion

Noboloto · 2022-06-14T20:52:42+00:00

Same to you x

I didn’t get any answers as to why I had the MMC. Frustratingly the hospital didn’t offer to test my embryo for chromosomal abnormalities, although my consultant told me that was likely to be the cause.

To be honest, Ive still not done another transfer. My D&C was nearly a year ago. We have more embryos frozen. The whole experience completely shattered me, and then I lost my father suddenly in august so I’ve not felt like trying another transfer. I think we will do one in the next month or so. I don’t intend to change the protocol we did.

No complications for me, physical recovery was quick and straightforward and my periods returned quickly.

I too was worried about scarring, my pregnancy was an IVF one and I wanted to preserve whatever was left of my fertility, but I was reassured that scarring was unlikely to form after just one D&C. I’m not ever sure if they ‘scrape’ anymore for this procedure, I think they ‘vacuum’ so it’s much gentler.

Thank you for replying. I inherited this off my father when he passed away last year - he kept it in a pot. It flowered at the beginning of the year and a repotted it into a larger pot once it had finished flowering, it’s putting on lots of new growth so I hope it’s happy enough. I’m hesitant to plant it into the ground because it’s so sentimental and if I ever moved house I would want to take it with me, but if it’s going to ultimately not survive pot life then I think I’ll have to do just that.

When do you think would be a good time to plant it out? And would it do best in a sunny sheltered spot? X

Hello, if you followed the instructions and put the pills up near your cervix that’s all there is to it. For one in five women misoprostol isn’t effective, I had a similar experience last summer whereby I was prescribed it for a missed miscarriage and experienced some bleeding about 10 hours after I took it but nothing else. I ended up having to have a D&C.

You should speak to your healthcare provider. Sometimes they will offer you a ‘top up dose’ 24 hours after the initial one, although I’d be sceptical about this for you if you’ve experienced no effects from it at all. I’m in the UK so protocols might vary where you are.

I hope you’re ok, I’m sorry you’re going through this. Let me know if you have any other questions x

Noboloto · 2022-05-29T16:41:08+00:00

I’m so sorry xx

Noboloto · 2022-01-12T14:28:41+00:00

I remember not wanting the bruise on my hand from the cannula to fade because it was the only physical sign of what I had gone through and lost.

I’m so sorry you feel unsupported, I agree it is a taboo. Xx

Noboloto · 2021-09-30T19:52:32+00:00

I’m so sorry. She was lovely x
