no tampons = continuation of a bad joke

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Seriously, pads make me absolutely miserable.  You'd think that now I know I'm not pregnant anymore, I can go back to doing whatever to my body and not worry about the consequences.  But NOOOO, I have to feel every little trickle of blood that comes out, miserably tossing and turning all night long hoping to keep little bits of me off of the new white sheets.  Sounding like I'm wearing a diaper when I walk. 

 This sucks.

    I know what you mean.  When I had my first MC in 2008, I bled off and on for almost 2 months!  This time around I think I would be happy if I at least could START the bleeding.  We found out friday that the baby had died, and I was prescribed Misoprostol, but I haven't even had a trace of spotting or cramping yet.

    I felt exactly the same way. As if losing my baby and the cramping weren't bad enough then I had to wear pads and be uncomfortable that way too? Ugh. It sucks.

    Wearing pads is seriously. It always felt and sounded like I was wearing a diaper. Talk about adding insult to injury!!

    It does suck, and to make matters worse, I bled/spotted for almost two whole weeks. And I never knew when it was going to be bad, I'd spot for a few days then - WHAM! - cramps and lots of blood for a few hours, then back to almost nothing. So I always felt like I had to have the diaper pad thingy on. All I wanted was to be DONE with the whole painful process, and it took forever.

     My thoughts are with you. It totally blows.

    Ugh, I know.

    I've been through this three times now, and I just have one recommendation:  Always Infiniti.  Best pads ever.
