When you have a "check up" after a miscarriage.... does the medical provider do a vaginal exam?

 

[Bride2b]

No but then ours wasn't a check up,it was results from the tests x

After I lost Ava I was supposed to go back in 6 weeks and I never did. I was supposed to go and get my bloods for my thyroid and I never did I was so devastated I just didn't care. I lost Ava ( I gave birth) on March 3rd and I didn't get my bloods till the end of April, it took me 6 months to get my thyroid in check. I didn't go back to the doctor till December I know that was way to long, but I just could not be in that office. After I had Ava they did a sonogram and nothing was left so I just knew I was ok. I do go now and everything is ok..

I had one, but that was when I went for my results after 8 weeks, and I was still bleeding that's the only reason she did it.
So sorry for your loss i hope your check up goes 'okay' xxxxx

I had a check about 2 weeks after and she did do a vaginal exam to make sure my cervix was closed.

I'm suppose to go in at 6 weeks for a pap cause I did give birth and thats what they do here but I may not go in for a while longer, I plan on doing a FET as soon as I can and they'll just redo my pap if I get pregnant so I don't see the point in having another one 2 months down the road if I get pregnant.

Kelly, the little box/urn you got for Hannah is beautiful. I absolutely love it...what a perfect little treasure!

Yes I thought that too,Kelly it's lovely,do you mind asking where you got it from? Bertie's ashes are in a plastic urn the crematorium put them in,but I wouldn't know how or if I could open it up to transfer it into something pretty like yours xx

 

[Bride2b]

Oh and Jo that's fab news hun xxxx

 

[jojo23]

I am excited for all you and your Rainbow Babies I am still scared to try :*(

I bought the box at a store called Personally Yours, they do engravings they have a sister store which sells the same items called Things Engraved. It is beautiful and I couldn't have found something better to put her in. If the plastic container is sealed I am sure a crematorium can open it back up for you, the ashes should be in a sealed bag inside if it's done like how they did Hannah's.

My bleeding has finally stopped, just over three weeks later. I also called a pregnancy and infant loss program out here and set up a counselling appointment next week. I don't know if i really need it but at least they will understand how I feel and hopefully tell me it's all normal.

I learnt a lot from my angel too x

I think it's really positive to look at what they has done for us and how they affected our lives x

It is so beautiful Kelly xx I'm glad your bleeding has finally stopped it feels good to know that 'that' bit is over! It's a good idea to see & talk to someone then you know you have 'dealt' with things x
