Hugs jennh I hope all is well.

Ouch it's 4.15 am and my shoulder is keeping me awake

 

[CrazyMumma]

BOOBS BOOBS BOOBS OMG BOOBS

This is insane. They are huge. And heavy. My nipples are massive and so over sensitive. Wearing a bra hurts. Not wearing a bra hurts. DH touches them and I could kill him.

Any ideas for how to soothe them

 

[Dark_Star]

Mine are the same... I find a soft bra top or snug camisole is better than a bra or no bra.

 

[CrazyMumma]

My boobs are way to big for those kind of tops

 

[Mrs Mel]

Hope everything's OK JennH, it is a very worrying time. Just try not to worry too much, hopefully you'll get some good news very soon.

 

[tallybee]

The only bras I can wear now are soft maternity ones in a size above my usual already large size lol I'm a size 8-10 uk with E cups wtf!

 

[GingerPanda]

I hope everything is okay, Jenn. I know someone on here who had a SCH and bled a LOT during her pregnancy, and her little girl is just fine. Her username is MizzyD if you want to check her out. She might be able to help you.




I'm just feeling so defeated today. I woke up feeling like something is wrong with this pregnancy. I can't shake it, and I can't bring myself to get out of bed.

I'm so pissed off that my doctor's office refuses to give me another scan until 20 weeks. I've never even made it to double digit weeks! Only saw bub once at 7w4d (measured 7w1d).

I tried looking around at walk-in ultrasound places, but they're all just for entertainment gender and 3D/4D scans. I found one place, but the earliest they do scans is 12 weeks. And I just don't think I can wait that long. I'm losing my mind today.

 

[tallybee]

gingerpanda. It must be so stressful, geez I'm stressing and am fortunate never to have been through a loss why won't your dr scan again? Xx

 

[GingerPanda]

Because they don't do it unless it's "medically necessary", and my mental health or previous losses don't count.

Also, my insurance only covers two scans per pregnancy. Which is rich considering what they charge me in premiums every month! They hate covering anything. They just say "Oh, we'll apply it to your deductible." Which is like $4000!

 

[tallybee]

Wow sorry they're being so useless Hun, I don't understand the us healthcare system fully but it sounds expensive and v frustrating xx

Is there nowhere that can do a reassurance scan for you at all, there seem to be places here that do such a thing for under £100gbp so not sure how that translates in $.

 

[Serenjay]

Im so glad we have scans easily available here in UK. My 2 from epau and private one £40 do put mind at rest. I really wish you could get peace of mind GP..


Girls I'm back in with my HG.... Back on a drip x

 

[Dark_Star]

I know the feeling GingerPanda. I thought I found a heartbeat, but in retrospect I think it was something else. I am also on progesterone and my last baby passed on 6 weeks before we discovered it at 12w scan. I'm having a tough time.

Gp I can't imagine how tough that is. Your chances of mc when all looked well at over 7 weeks is really slim. Just try to remember that x

This is true xx

Thanks Tally x

Girls if you want a giggle. Look what I done. Packed white Jim jam tops forgetting I was wearing a bright pink bra

My first pregnancy stopped growing at 8w1d, so I can't relax even though things appeared okay at 7 weeks.

There's only one scan place near here that will do scans before 16-20 weeks... But they won't do them until 12 weeks.

I can't get a scan either, the closest private scans are a 5 hour drive away. My next scan is at April 1.

I'm just trying to remind myself that this is all out of my control, and as long as I know that there is still a pregnancy in there I must treat myself gently and keep my stress level down. My last fetal demise co-incided with a basement flood, and I feel in my heart that the panic attack I had was the cause.

Even if we did get a scan now... would it really reassure you if you had odd pains or spotting the next day? I know it would just cause the worrying all over for me again, especially since we have both had MMCs.

 

[Lil_Pixie]

For me I really think having a scan next weekend will put my mind at ease, providing things are ok in there. My last pregnancy the baby stopped grown 5 or 6 weeks before we found out, but I've never had an early scan before, so I think if everything looks as it should between 8/9 weeks I'll have a bit of confidence.

I'm very lucky that my first pregnancy was wonderful and my son was/is super healthy, yet still I can't picture that there will be anything in there next weekend.

Gp I'm so sorry you can't get a scan, is there no way for you to change your Dr's mind? Or get them to listen to the hb so you know everything's ok in there?

 

[Mrs Mel]

Hugs ladies, this time really is scary. Especially after a loss x

 

[ClaireJ23]

Dark_Star I'm sorry that you feel that your panic attack was the cause. That's really sad that you feel that way.

I agree that I wouldn't be reassured too much by a scan now. I had an 8 week scan with DD1 and one week later I was staying overnight in hospital with severe bleeding due to a SCH and a threatened miscarriage.
