Approximately two weeks ago after my wife had suffered some bleeding (approximately 9 weeks and a few days pregnant) she was advised to come into the early pregnancy unit at Stepping Hill to be checked over. We went and was told there was a sac there but no sign of a baby - therefore a missed miscarriage which will be our third.
Before they will refer to the recurrent miscarriage clinic, they are insisting on another scan even though she has bled heavily since and we have both phoned to try and get the referral. Being made to wait to be told what we already know for the sake of protocol feels cruel and hurtful. This hospital has never on either of the 3 occasions offered any kind of psychological support.
All our GP practices have offered is referral to a charity but despite working full time we can't afford to make a donation so conveniently never get offered any appointments.
