Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Made it through twos days at work...

I am feeling better every day...emotionally.  Physically, I still feel awful. I'm still bleeding...and I have painful back and stomach cramps.  I took the miso on Friday.  I'm retaining 2 - 4 lbs worth of fluid.  I want to feel like myself again.  Any clue when this might happen?

 

Re: Made it through twos days at work...

  • I can't help with the fluid, but wanted to say I am glad you are feeling better emotionally.  Are you glad you went back to work?  Did that help you feel better?  Hope you keep feeling better and the physical part ends soon.

  • Today I am glad that I went to work.  Monday just sucked.  My husband and my mom both thought I should go.  They were afraid that I would get depressed, so I dragged myself out of bed and made it to work.  I cried a lot.  No one, except for two coworkers, knew what happened to me.  It was painful to move because of the cramps and fluid, but stayed busy and threw myself into paperwork. Today was much better.  I'm sure tomorrow will be even better.  I'm glad that I went.  I'm ready to move on w/ my life.  Thanks for asking:)
  • Don't you hate when you make a typo and you have to read it over and over and over again.  It make me want to DD.  that is "two" days, not "twos" days.  Can you tell I'm messed up over this miscarriage?????
  • I am glad that you are doing better emotionally.  I am not sure how it works with miso - I started bleeding on Saturday and I had some cramping and clots today.  As far as feeling like myself again - I still do in some ways but I am never going to be the same.  I am hoping that these experiences will make me a better person in some ways.  I think I am a better listener and I hope it makes me a better friend and wife.
  • I know exactly how you are feeling.  Today was also the first day that I have been feeling better emotionally.  But it was my first day back at work and physically it was hard.  I had cramps and stomach pain as well.  I talked to one of my coworkers today who had a miscarriage last year about this and she said that it took her two to three weeks to feel better. It sucks because we have to go through this emotionally and then physically too.
  • What sucks about the physically is that it is a constant reminder of what we lost.  Every cramp...all the blood...it's all a constant reminder.  It sucks!
  • Sorry you have to go through this. I'm glad you're feeling better emotionally. it does get better every day. i have some days when i get down, but others are great.

    I took MIso about 2 1/2 weeks ago and am finally feeling physically like myself again. I had heavy bleeding for about 6 days, then spotted for another 6, and now nothing really. I am starting to feel more like myself. Not really bloated (though I need to lose the 5 lbs. I gained), my boobs have more or less gone back to normal. my levels are still somewhat high so I think I have a couple more weeks to go until I get AF.?
