Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

What a difference not wearing a pad makes...

I know that may sound so silly but it has been a week and a day since my D&C and I was bleeding and wearing these awful giant overnight pads 24/7that just made me feel gross and I am wearing a panty liner today! It is the little things in life right now for me! The stopping of the bleeding just helps me feel like I can start to move on even more. For the last 6 months we were TTC I was begging AF to stay away now I just hope she hurries up and gets here so we can start trying again.

  • Oh god... I kept saying that I felt like I was 12 again, because I think that was the last time I wore a horrible huge pad all day. I just had my first period after miscarriage and the day it came I was like, "darn it, back to the pads" then I remembered I was allowed to use tampons again- OH HAPPY DAY!! Stick out tongue

  • I totally know what you mean; I was bleeding so bad after my m/c (spontaneous, complete m/c), I had to wear one of my DD's diapers in my panties, because there were no pads big enough to keep from leaking.   Talk about mortifying.   When everything finally stopped, it was such a relief.

    I get mad, now, every time I get my period.  It just seems like such a cruel reminder.  We're not ready to try again for a long time, as our last pregnancy was unplanned, so I guess I'd better get used to it. :(

  • woot! woot! 

    that is happy news!

    Now let's hope AF decides to return FAST! 

  • I could not agree more!  After my m/c I could not wait to be through with those large pads.
