Warning - More TMI in this post
Oh Kirsty! I'm so sorry for you having that too! Isnt it awful!
Heulyn is absolutely right, they should warn you it can happen, especially when you have to wait a whole weekend for evac, I suppose the chances were actually quite high that it might come out naturally.
Hi Maybe, I think your idea is lovely, but I had read in a book that you should take the 'discharge' to the hospital if you can as they might be able to tell you why you miscarried (which is rubbish by the way, they are not interested in why unless you have had 3 or more) so I put it in a little plastic sample bag and a box and took it with me. The good thing is that they were able to tell me straight away by looking at it that I had indeed had the main miscarriage already. But I dont know what they did with it, I wasnt offered it back. I think its for the best but I do now wonder.......
But your idea to plant a tree will give me some peace I think. I bought a small apple tree last summer and I'm going to plant it when we move in to the new house. It can be a memorial sort of thing.
Thank you all so much for reading this and responding, especially as I think its the sort of post that I would have personally avoided! Your kind words mean so much and I have passed some of them on to my husband who I think has taken some silent comfort in being in so many peoples good wishes and thoughts.
I think a fresh start in a new job and a new house will help him a lot and I am finding lots of cheer in the Trying to Concieve forum where everyone is so nice and the conversations are great fun xxxxx
I think it's healthy to talk about it and from sharing your experience, maybe someone else who has gone through or god forbid goes through the same thing will feel some comfort in knowing that they're not alone. I really hope you're ok.
