You guys are amazing!!!!

Comment Published at 11:5711:5733 comments33 comments59 Visits59 VisitsReport

Honestly from the bottom of my heart cant thank you guys enough for the support you have given us. it was all just such a shock didnt expect it all until i started bleeding of course.

I had the scan yesterday it was horrible . We were waiting nearly an hour to go in and one of the women in there was like 15 weeks pregnant i just wanted to get it over with and get out of there. Bumped into that nasty nurse i chose to ignore her though . Barry said i was rude as she was only trying to be kind but why should i talk to someone whos throat i want to rip out.

When they adventually called me in the scan went well i couldent look at the screen its just not right but Barry said there is definatly nothing left. .The nurse called me in almost straight away she gave me some information on how i should be feeling. She advised we dont start trying again until i have had a period the lining was thick but she said its because all is still fresh and i am still bleeding . She was disgusted with the fact i saw the miscarriage and adviced meto tell my doctor i wasnt happy with the way i was treated . She let me go out the emergency door so i didnt have to walk through early pregnancy again when i came out everyone in ante natal was starring at me ity was horrible .

I went to see the doctor today i asked about councelling and told him the thoughts and visions i am having and all . He seems to think i need to loose my anger towards the nurse otherwise its going to prolong the pain. He says it is going to take time to heal and he thinks i am too bitter at the momenthesays decking the nurse isnt a good idea . What a shame. He thinks there is somewhere in paignton which is about 5 miles from here i can get some councelling its ecspecially for women who are angry after miscarriage. He wants me to go see him again monday so he can see how i am getting on .

I also told him i keep on going dizzy when i get up and stuff so he took my blood pressure and it was low so he think i could be aneamic because i did loose alot of blood and still am bleeding and i am not eating or sleeping much at the moment so he sent me for a blood test right away .

But he did give me the number for this place in the hospital called P.A.L.S they deal with people after a miscarriage . He said if i complain to them they will get it dealt with for me, I rang and said my dr had given me the numberer and i was ringing because i wasnt happy with the way i was treated whilst having a miscarriage. I told her that my miscarriage was announced with the feotus that i had minutes before lost down the comode she was disgusted and told me this should not have happened. She said she was going to call the matron of the unit and get back to me . Which she did rather quickly she said the matron was gathering up my notes and identifying the nurse in question and will be sopeaking to her regarding her behaviour.

The matron of the unit should be calling me monday to discuss what usually happens in these circumstances because of course this woman stupidity has made things only much worse for me to overcome. Then aparantly she will want o meet me face to face so we will see but i will be making sure sheis dealt with . Seems she not only did it once but twice sheis in a spot of trouble .

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hi little one,so glad you complained and you are going to do what helps you. Hospitals are factories,they do what is easiest for them. After one loss I spent a week in a ward with all the Mothers having their babies with them. After one very bad loss I had a nurse like yours. She told me later that she was so harsh as the Mom's that really want their babies have to know that the pregnancy is over. Well she was so harsh!  But some times we focus our grief and direct it instead of dealing and dealing with this is so hard. My heart goes out to you and I just want you to be able to go on. But you need time emmie and make sure you take it for yourself.  Get yourself in a good place health wise and everything.  Thinking of you and sending vibes!

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hi Em

I agree with Helen get as much help as you can to come to terms with this.  I didn't get any help after my miscarriage and I wish I had because like you I was angry and even though I had Alex it didn't stop me hating every woman with a baby, lol. I blamed myself for my miscarriage because I had been skipping a few days before I started bleeding so I knew I must have been to blame even though everyone said it wasn't my fault. The main thing that helped me was having Daniel later but don't rush things take your time and let your body heal and you never know how things will work out.

Love you my dear friend and I wish you all the luck in the world xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

I don't know why that nurse would have done that, unless she is so immune to the whole thing and working in her job too long, but i think decking her is not the answer...ok, you know that of course but maybe a complaint to the appropriate authorities is the only way to go.  I know, seems so non-productive but sometimes it is the only way and if she has done this type of thing before every little compalint will escalate.

Anyway Emmie, look after you...

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hmmm still resiting the urge to deck her for you.... Good on you for taking it further. I always knew that you were a natural born fighter. That's fantastic that you are seeking help. This is so painful for any woman to endure and I wish you nothing but strength and courage while going through this. You deserve so much more and I know one day it will happen, it really will.

love to you, barry and the girls,

fi xoxo

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hi Fi ,

Tempting isnt it but then i think this has happened to me what if a woman say 10 weeks gone miscarries she confirms her miscarriage with her dead baby there is another woman suffering what i am that thought kills me . She needs dealing with and i wont back down this gets ignored i will take it to the papers . I will fight them all the way the miscarriage itself was upsetting enough without showing me that . But my doctor thinks this will release alot of anger and help my healing and i believe in him . I think i need the councelling and its great my doctor has possibly founsd me one near by so fingers crossed he will have it sortd for monday

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hey Hun glad to see you are writing, got worried there you were going to stop for a while. Glad Barry held you back, LOL a night in the cells would not have been over comfortable, and the woman is not worth the energy. You know Emmie there are rotten eggs in all jobs, I bet the majority of the staff caring for you were nice and kind, but sadly it is the rotten gits that leave the sour taste in ones mouth. I hope you dont have to wait too long to get your counseling. Thinking of you lots.

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Sweetie, I know this is very hard for you, but already, you are seeking out the help and that is a very big step.  A positive one.

I did get the giggles about you wanting to deck the nurse though.  Could just see little Emmie facing the Dragon with nothing but bare hands!  Sorry, but the way you have written things has made me see that.

Of course we are all here to support you.  Many of us know what you are going through, including the bad medical services.  Lean on us and we will all keep you standing.

The counselling will be of great help to you and to Barry as well.  He needs to get support and help too.  men, prefer to mooch around than admit they are human! 

Keep writing about what you are going through.  keep talking to whoever you can about it.  Keep crying when you need to.  but above all, know that this is not your fault and that there is always someone around for you (even when I should be at bed at 3am!).

Big hugs sweetie, and congrats on taking the early steps to recovery.  So very proud of you!

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hey Arna,

Yes rna it is very hard but i  am scared of going crazy over this so i have to fight it now . I need to think of the kids I need to be well for them.

Oh you should have come to the scan that nasty nurse looked at me smiling everything ok now? I went to go for her and Barry had to restrain me he says she was only trying to be nice but was she only being nice when she reasured me by saying its only a miscarriage and showing me my dead baby oooo i could kill her .

Yes its fantastic i have you guys to be quite honest i don know whati would do without it right now. I knew the NHS was bad but this is beyond ridiculous .

Ive told Barry he should get coucelling too but he is sure he doesent need it he is such a stubborn git. Thing is though he does he went into work yesterday to pick up his paperwork for monday and 1 of the lads was telling a joke about abortion and hehad him up against the wall btw he didnt know why barry has been off work. Barry got a  bit of a teelling off.

Yes i will be keep writting believe it or not its keeping me sane . It was so unexpected my MIL called last night she hadnt got our text and she wanted to know how i was getting on with her next grandchild  she was gutted wwhen barry had told her what had happened .It just dont make sense 4 days earlier everything was totally normal When i started bleeding monday night i knew in my heart it was a miscarriage and the doc said the possibilities are there .

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

Hi Em,It sounds like you have a lot of support which is good.  Listening to the way you were treated - though horrifying - sounded quite familiar.  I remember sitting in the waiting room to have the u/sound along with all these pregnant women - and even a picture of a pregnant woman on teh wall - to have them ask "what makes you think you were pregnant?".  I was so distraught I couldn't even pay for the u/sound when we left - I had to gesture for DH to come and deal with it.  But my Gp was useless and did not recommend couselling or anything, so you are getting great help!  I'm glad you can do something about the way you were treated, then you can hopefully move on and deal with your grief and anger at the unfairness of life - rather than the nurse.

Hi Kseers,

How horrible they really dont have a clue do they ? Its horrible sat in there its bad enough Kylies teacher is heavily pregnantbut being surrounded with them i didnt know what to do with myself all so happy to see their baby but mine is gone after we left the hospitsl i got in the car and cried my eyes out i was welling up all through the hospitsl .You mean you had to pay for your u/s when u had a miscarriage that is awful . I think the only reason the dr helped me was because i told him i was going crazy and i want to do silly things to the nurse . Yes i am glad they aare taking it seriously and are dealing with it. My dr seems to think it will help me to grieve as it will loose some anger so we will see what happens monday.

Hey hunny, I' glad that you are able to get some help with your loss.  Sounds like your doctor has been very supportive and I hope that the nurse gets yanked from maternity and high risk altogether!  I hope that you keep resting and eat lots of meat!  I'm always here for you if you need anything.  Lots of love to you and your family!

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

I'm really sorry Emz, I can't imagine what you are going through but know that my thoughts are with you.

As far as the nurse goes, make the complaint and then forget about it.  I think your doctor is right, it will prolong the pain.

Take care of yourself.

Re: You guys are amazing!!!!

I really feel for you and understand.  When I had my miscarriage while I did not see it (and I would not wish that upon anyone) I had to spend the night in the Maternity Ward. So all night all I heard was baby's cries. It was very hard.

My husband asked if I could be moved but they said there were no other places to go. 

I really really hope you can work out your aggression towards this nurse, while decking her would be the ideal solution to most of us here, it may not be the most productive.  I believe your doctor is right though.

If it helps I will mentally B##ch slap her from here.. While I would not normally write something like that, I feel it is called for...    I really hope things get better for you.

OMG - That is horrible they could have at least put you in A&E  if they really had no space its just not fair they should be more understanding.

I was taught dont get mad get even so althoughit would be great to knock the living crap out of her the complaint sounds better i dont have much energy snd im not wasting it on her.

You get mentally bitchslapping she sure deserves it she makes me sick . But you know whaat they say it can only get better.
