So I've come back from my doctor appointment feeling really sad...my doctor, to be honest, was a complete douchebag and seemed to go out of his way to make me feel less reassured and like the pregnancy will fail...he said:
-He didn't confirm my pregnancy/ask how I'd tested/when I'd tested
-He told me 25% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage, so It's still a likely possibility even though I've not had cramping/bleeding etc
-He doesn't really care that I had the mc before ("Every pregnancy is different"-err, tell that to the many women with recurrent mcs) so won't be doing anything to reassure me
-Not to bother going for the early private scan because "The rays damage the cells and make you miscarry the baby" and it's not worth it anyway because all I'll see is a "dot"
-That my pregnancy is not likely to go well because, even though I've got all "secondary symptoms" (I.e. sore boobs, fatigue) only morning sickness and vomiting tells you the pregnancy will be ok
-I won't get to see the midwife to book in until at least 10 weeks
-I shouldn't be offered any early scans etc "because you're only 22"
I've been left feeling a little upset, like this pregnancy will be doomed and I'm only just starting I could cry and wish I'd never gone, because at least I was happily pregnant before it...now I just feel like a ticking timebomb...
Aw sweetie he sounds like my shit gp I saw last week! He said same stuff, no scan, no bloods I'm young and no need too! Just ignore him honestly, ur babba is safe in your tummy and ur like me only young the risks as very low. Please try not worry, there are no signs to say gonna mc so just relax and enjoy it please! Every one here will say same and did to me, I called and we se md wife between 7-9 weeks. I was the same left upset he tried say my babby had moved as I had a bleed and just try keep calm! How can I when said baby moved where! got my progess on cb digi so alls ok at moment jjust gonna try keep postive! X
