CP question

MissuskeekersMissuskeekers member
in TTC After a Loss
Hi ladies,

As I posted last night, I just found out I am having a cp. I have no experience with these because both my other losses were missed m/cs...

I started bleeding this morning, am I allowed to use a tampon? Or do I have to use pads like after my d&cs?

I tried to call my doctor but she isn't in today.

    I have used a tampon after all of mine.  Dr had no problem with it... Especially with a beta of 4, there isnt going to be any tissue passing, i dont think it will be a problem.

    My Dr said to use pads, but he was an idiot so who knows if that is true! Just thought I would throw that out there to confuse you since everyone else's dr said tampons were fine Wink

    Sorry for your loss, I will be praying for you.

    I don't use tampons anyways, but I just wanted to say that when I had my BW my beta was also at 4, and I did pass a big chunk of tissue.  Now I'm wondering if my experience was abnormal...
