Wednesday evening I returned home from work to a thick envelope with a franking mark from the hospital, yep, my appointment letter and paperwork for the booking-in appointment with the Midwife and 12 week scan details. A week after my first miscarriage I got the same letter, now nearly 2 weeks after this one I receive the appointment. I can’t believe how incompetent they are at updating records, and that it took them nearly 4 weeks to issue the letter after my first visit to the GP.
Friday, 9th March – Back from my follow up scan and blood test. Both ultrasound and transvaginal scan showed everything to be fine. Uterus, tubes and ovaries all as they should be, no cysts anywhere. Womb lining is 4.8mm, normal apparently. I’m still bleeding slightly but as far as the Drs are concerned the miscarriage is complete. However, I’m still testing positive on the hpts with quite a strong line today so the Dr I saw is concerned and told me to go back to my GP, which I will do anyway as we’ll need to discuss my bloods and the scan reports. I guess the next step will depend on the outcome of those and what, if any, further tests I’ll need prior to a repeat miscarriage appointment. I feel in limbo now, we can’t try again yet, part of me is “pleased” to have the break, but a part of me is panicking that we’re losing time and I don’t know what to do. I feel like we’re forever waiting for something, waiting for AF to show, waiting for OV, waiting for a BFP, waiting for appointments, waiting for our baby…
