Question

what ahould i ask my doc..


im going to my docotr today after a week of building myself up mentally to ask questions and try to push for some kind of investigation into why i lost my babys and what are my chances of falling pregnant again... im writing here to ask if anyone has any ideas of questions i could ask??

i always have a head full of things to say but when i get in to the docs room it all goes away and i just end up agreeing that my deppression is all fine and im just thee for more pills....

ahhhh

Not sure of anything you can ask but write it all down!
It is easy to forget when youre in the room but when you have it all written down it makes it easier

Ask exactly what you said their but this time write it down so when you get in their you can make the most of ur appointment. It does happen to many you have so much to ask and forget half of it. So try writing it down so you don't get side tracked into talking about your depression and actually get an answer that you actually went their for. Hope that helps.

I agree that the best course of action would be to write it all down. I would make a list of questions in bullet point form and keep the questions short and to the point.

Read through the list and fine tune it before going to visit your doctor or get a friend to read over them to make sure they are void of too much emotion.

You mention depression and medication, so it may be worth asking about the meds you are on and the effect they could possibly have on ttc and/or the way they make you feel about your previous loss.

Do you have a counsellor, because it could be worth your while speaking to someone outside the doctors office. I may be speaking out of line here, but it's difficult to comment and advise when you don't know someone, so apologies if this idea is not appropriate to you. Another idea may be to look for an advice service on line, which is totally confidential and you can get answers over the internet without making appointments and having to wait.

When I lost my mother, our counsellor in work told me that in his opinion it should take approximately 5 years to grieve for someone, so I can't see why this wouldn't apply to the loss of a pregnancy. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to go through the stresses of ttc and grieve a loss at the same time. My heart goes out to you and I wish you the strength to get through this difficult time and move forward.

Hope there is some help in my words.

thank you ladys, i have been to the doctors and i ended up blerting everything out in one go, my doctor assured me that i should have no further problems ttc, she said that although ive lost two babys (one late and one early) they prob arnt connected and not to let it play on my mind i have had scans before and if there was anything wrong with my womb they would have told me there and then.with regards to my medication im taking the bear min and they have all been tested for use during pregnacy so should be fine.
she also said when i do get pregnant again i will be booked into the clinic for looking after from the start.

so fingers crossed!

I'm glad you got that of your chest. Do you feel abit better now? At least you know for the future you will be looked after and this reassurance should help you through. Good luck TTC. I hope it happens for you soon.

Brilliant! I was hoping you would go sooner rather than later. By the way, your hair looks wonderful ... I bet it took a v e r y long time to do.

Best of luck and loads of for you.
