Hi Everyone. Well as you know last Thursday was the one year anniversary of my baby's death. I just thought I'd let you all know how I got on. First of all I was a nervous wreck and I'm not kidding...
Hi. Don't really know what to say but tomorrow is 'The Big Day' I'm dropping my step-daughter off at my sisters for the day then i'm going to the chapel at the hospital. The chaplain said she will...
Hi everyone. Quick update The Chaplain did not phone me back, I had to phone the on call Chaplain to try and sort something out for next week. Luckily it seems that someone will be there. All I...
I can't believe this, I have just phoned the Chaplain for my hospital and she said that she won't be there because she is holiday!!!! what the hell is it with people who I need being on holiday. I'd...
Thanks again Karen for your support :-) @purplesky46 I am not familiar with the brands of medication you mentioned. I am on Citalopram 20mg but my doctor wants to increase this to 40mg at my next...
Hi guys I'm having a really bad day. I had to go out before into the town centre. I put my hood up on my coat, even though it wasn't raining - it just makes me feel more secure when i am out. Anyway...
To Kaleighah82 Thank you for your reply, unfortunately there is no one to go with me, my friends/family have not been part of my support network. I have only had my counsellor really. Each time I...
Thanks Karen, I know it's going to be hard but I need to do something. I don't have long left until the day and I suppose being at the hospital is the closest I'm ever going to be to my baby in this...
My counsellor phoned me as a colleague of his mentioned that they'd spoke to me (the one that left me in tears struggling to breath on the phone) I told him what had been said to me and that how i...
I can't take this any more, I really can't. the mental health team phoned me this morning to inform me that there will be NO sessions for me over the next two weeks. The only advice that they could...
Sorry Karen, must be getting tired can't even read correctly now :-s I will have a look at breathing techniques on the internet, thanks for suggesting it. Also thank you to you and I.G for replying...
Hi Karen. I do take medication, I take Citalopram, 20mg, but my doctor wants to increase the amount to 40mg the next time we meet. They are not working, they don't calm me or take the edge off. I...
WHAT A DAY!!! honestly why on earth do i bother! The mental health team phoned me today but my mobile lost signal as i answered so i phoned them straight back and they told me the guy that had tried...
Hi It's Genetic I have the odd cup of tea but it's easier for me to have a large bottle of water next me as i can't be bothered to keep going to the kitchen. I'm not really eating much, my appetite...
Thanks again for the support. I just wish i had someone i could talk to, someone who would be there when my counsellor isn't. Is there anything available on skype or msn or something? i'm in the uk...
Thanks everyone for your replies. Had another session with my counsellor today and even though I knew he was going on holiday, I didn't realise how long he would be away for. He won't be able to see...
It's Genetic, im sure you mean well but i hate to tell you that you have actually made me feel worse. So what you're saying is that for me to have fulfilment in my life i need to try for another...
Hi, 25th Aug 2010 I went to the hospital for my first scan of my baby. I was told there was no heartbeat. I had to have the most heartbreaking operation the next day. After I came off the painkillers...
