I've posted on a few threads, so I figured it was probably time to backtrack and post an intro.
H and I have been together for 8 1/2 years, and married for 3 1/2. Around our 3rd anniversary, I was having a really hard time. We have no family here, and I went through some really bad stuff just before I met H which was coming up in my memory. The only thing I've ever really wanted was to be a mom, and I guess H decided it was an okay time to start NTNP.
After some very odd MPs (extremely light in February, nothing in March) I took a test on April 18th which came out positive. Unfortunately, the pregnancy had trouble right from the beginning. Late April 19th, I had a gush of blood and passed several large clots. We went to the hospital, and there they said everything looked fine, and dated me at 5w2d. I was scheduled for another ultrasound the following Monday. At that u/s I was dated at 6w4d, but they said there was no heartbeat, and I was told it was very likely going to result in a miscarriage. I was scheduled for another u/s for another 2 weeks later, and sent on my way. During that time, unfortunately because I continued to have symptoms, and the bleeding had stopped, I allowed myself to feel hopeful. At my last u/s, I was told that the baby had stopped growing and that there was no heartbeat.
I completed a medicated miscarriage on Saturday, and I just went to see the doctor today because I was having some extremely painful cramping still. He prescribed me Tramacet and told me to call back if the pain still doesn't go away. Other than that, I'm just waiting for the bleeding to stop so that we can start talking about when we want to TTC again.

I found heating pads that are found in "spa" sections in department stores , composed of rice/other materials to be extremely helpful . You microwave them and something about the moist heat on your back or stomach really helps the cramps . And chocolate of course ...chocolate helps everything . **hugs**

I actually bought myself one that you plug in. I was looking at the bean filled one, but they only had one that went around your neck (plus I blew the fuse on my the plug that my microwave is plugged into and haven't had a chance to change it yet :-/).It has definitely been my friend this past week.
