We took them up on the offer of a post mortem but still haven’t heard anything, though they said it could take up to 12 weeks for results. ETA: My first effort at ‘post mortem’ came out as postMorton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quality of scans these days makes it more personal than it would have done 20 years ago. Your GP will ask you what you want to know from the findings. Sorry it's a little graphic but I'm relaying my experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking earlier on today that this week has pretty much been a good week, but then I realised I hadn’t really thought about that day this week, then all of a sudden felt this overwhelming feeling of guilt for having not thought about it, and that’s kind of what sent me on this train of thought I guess. I’m realising now that it’s probably only natural feeling this way and it probably is a sign of getting over it, but it just kind of threw me a bit. Like dealing with any loss, you're allowed to be happy, you're allowed to have good days. Me telling you that won't stop you feeling guilty, of course, but you will get there, I promise you that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 We were told they wouldn’t investigate until three confirmed miscarriages. Really? We were at 13 weeks and so were treated effectively the same as having lost a nearly full term or actually born. From what we were told at the hospital that day, the Mortonhall Ashes Scandal a few years ago opened up a huge can of worms and most of the procedures, protocol, legalities etc have all changed since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH33 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Mine were about 12/13 years ago now. One mine was all fine at 6 and 10 week early scans but when we got for routine scan at 12ish weeks the heartbeat had stopped. Not sure if I’d have wanted to know but at least there is the option now. I went on to have three perfectly healthy kids so count my blessings and all that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's when they offer to investigate. If you ask, and they're caring they'll send it off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
