I'm sorry (((WannaBump))). This happened to me a couple of years ago, I also had ERPC under a General. In terms of what to take to the hospital: a book, something to listen to/do, some food (for afterwards, hospital food is pants, especially for diabetics - hardly any carbs sometimes), testing stuff, hypo treatments, also some sanitary towels as you will have some bleeding afterwards (like a heavy period) and you can't use anything internal.

FWIW you are likely to be more fertile for the next two or three months as a result of this - my "more fertile" is now 17 months old :D but take your time and come to terms with what's happened.

There's a forum over on babycentre.co.uk called Pregnancy and Infant Loss, you might find it helpful to have a read of some of the stuff on there, and post if you think it will help.
 
Thanks cate for the msg. I hadn't even thought about what I needed to bring to the hospital, so thanks for that. I didnt know that I would be more fertile after this either, so its something to think about when I feel ready. I just know how incredibly nervous Im going to be next time I get pregnant, I know Im going to be so stressed until the second trimester at least.
OK, I feel as ready as Im ever going to be for tomorrow. So, Im ready for it.
 
I hope it goes as ok as possible tmrw hun, will be thinking about you. Let us know how you are when you feel up to it. Xx
 
So sorry to hear of your loss. I can appreciate what you are going through. This happened to me at 10 weeks, no heartbeat detected at the scan. Took the option of taking medication to bring on the miscarriage as was not happening naturally, I didn't want to leave my young daughter at the time to go into hospital.
Wasn't ready to try again for a few months. Fell again when we started trying around 6 months after the loss and had a smooth pregnancy and birth (albeit a little anxious in those early weeks!) I have 2 beautiful daughters so you mustn't give up hope! I hope you get all the support you need.
Thinking of you at this sad time, tc.
 
So sorry to hear of your loss. Time is a healer and when you are ready try again. I lost 2 little angels in 2007 and know how incredibly painful it is. Hope everything goes ok for you tomorrow and if you need to chat, let of steam etc pm me xxx
 
i am so sorry and i know how you feel i lost one before having graham at 8 weeks and i kept it dead for another month because of this i had a scan every week when i had graham and you can ask the same and about having the emrio out is better to have a general anestetic i think is quite hard stay awake meantime you are having something taken out when you know is going to be dead i have been in hospital 3 days and they try everything to having that done without going in to theatre at the end i was so tired that they have to to D&C anyway good luck and keep trying dont be afraid to lose it again
 
Evening WannaBump,
I'm so sorry to read about your sad news, sorry its been a couple of days since been on. I have been crying too whilst reading all the posts and it confirms what I was going to put, you of course have your family and o/h's support, but you have a family on here too, backed up by all of the sincere posts and other's telling you about their miscarriages but then followed by bundles of joy.

I hope all goes well for tomorrow, fingers crossed at least then, as someone else has mentioned, the clinical stuff will be out the way so you can continue to grieve .

Love and hugs, will be thinking of you
 
So sorry to hear your news WannaBump, thinking of you and your family xxx
