2016 May Miracles

[Em260]

Krissy - good to see you over here! My DD is only 20 months so I don't think she'll understand when we tell her but maybe we'll wait until we tell everyone else, just in case.

Sis - gender disappointment is nothing to be ashamed of and it's totally normal to want a little girl. I wouldn't put too much stock into those gender prediction sites. They are notoriously wrong.

ja14 - spotting is so scary I had it my entire pregnancy with DD. It's a good sign that you don't have any cramps. Hopefully the time will pass quickly until your scan on Friday.

drjo - congrats on your scan! Isn't it amazing that the little hands and feet are already visible at such an early stage!

AFM - I had my scan today and we saw the heartbeat!! Baby is measuring 5 weeks and 5 days so right on target. I had the most vivid dream that I was having identical twins but so far we just saw one baby . I go back next week and if all looks good I'll be released to my regular OB.

Hi Ja - I posted in your journal, but will post here too. I am having a scan today to check out some bright red and pink spotting. However, with my first I has a lot of red bleeding - so much I was convinced it was a m/c, but it was actually bleeding from a SCH (sub-chronic heamorgaee (spelling!!). There are so many reasons for bleeding in the first tri and if there isn't pain I would be feeling cautiously optimistic! Of course, when I am about to go in for my scan today I will be a nervous wreck!! I hope it all is fine for you - I will post back here with my news. Hope you get a good reassurance scan too.

Great news on all the wonderful scans

Sis - I wouldn't be ashamed of gender disappointment if you really wanted a girl of course you will be disappointed. I really wanted a boy as my first but the minute by lil girl was born I fell deeply in love and wouldn't have swapped her for the world. I am sure you will feel the same when time comes, but def check out the gender disappointment forum - it might make you feel less guilty about your feelings.

My l/o is 2.5. We haven't told her yet, but starting to bring up babies and the concept of brothers and sisters so that when we do tell she will have some understanding. I think we will tell her when we get to the "safezone" at 12 weeks....cant wait to tell her though!!!

I lost my baby. Good luck to everyone else. xx

Ooh, didn't expect to see so many familiar faces over in this thread! Hi Em :waves:

ja14- I had a lot of spotting as well, and my doctor always adamantly says it's not a concern without cramping. Are you using any progesterone suppositories or BDing more or anything like that? Things like that can irritate the cervix and cause more spotting. FXed for you

I was thinking of waiting to tell DD until around the 12 week scan, like you Busy and Mrs. But the wait is killing me lol.

Lou - So sorry for your loss.

 

[mrsmax]
