August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

I had some nasty cough that started on Saturday and then chills and shivers rolled around on Sunday night, followed by rapid increase in my temperature. Ended up in the ER with a fever. They tested for all kinds of things and turned out it was flu, just as I worried. Stayed the night there but my temp subsided just slightly and my heart rate stayed well above 130 most of the time. Lucky me was admitted to hospital Monday morning. Things are better now, just cough and runny nose. Hoping to go home soon. This place depresses me and makes me an emotional wreck.

Well at least DH had a chances to see the babies which are just fine! Phewww.. Baby A was dancing around and having a party, baby B was doing some crunches.
 
I've started spotting. I'm freaking out. I was fine and then did a spin class and got home to blood. Do you think it could be because of the exercise?

Hi Kirim , don't worry I'm sure all is fine . Take it easy maybe for a few days.

The consultant appointment was useful. We seen baby (measuring a week ahead !) looking well and she said there's a small clot under the placenta which probably caused the bleed and as it's easing it should go away.

She seemed really surprised when I said I had atypical hyperplasia as I'm so young (28). I asked if it could affect the pregnancy and she said no but still checked with a colleague which was good .Basically I'll need a post natal appointment on how to manage it in the future as atypia is pre-cancerous. I've talked about this with fertility dr though and I know the mirena is effective but it's good they have a plan . Due to all this I'll be consultant led but I really like her and can get my midwife antenatal appointment with my gp. Phew what an essay; I do feel better now even if practically things haven't changed .

All being well we are telling everyone this weekend as I will be 12 weeks and want to explain to work on Monday honestly why I've been off for 2 weeks.
 
That's great news and so pleased everything is good with the bsby.

The spotting is brown so I'm hoping it's nothing. Will see how I am tomorrow.
 
Aw flagirlie how rubbish to be in hospital. I hope you're out by now and snuggled up at home . That's great your oh got to see the babies , it's so funny to see the little movements .
 
Our ultrasound went great! Thankfully there is only 1 baby in there lol. He/she was being very active, moving around lots and even had his/her legs crossed when the tech first found the baby. It was so amazing. Their printer was out of ink so I couldn't get a picture today, but they think I should get it tomorrow. I am feeling so blessed <3
 
I heard my baby's heartbeat today for the first time. It was AMAZING!!!! I had tears in my eyes &#10084;&#65039;
 
i'm going to post pics in the FB group - it's easier for me. scan/appt went awesome, our tech was great, my dr is great. full details in my journal if you were interested.
kirin, i think the exercise could maybe cause a little bit of spotting - i spin 3x a week and it can be sensitive on the lady bits without pregnancy, so i would just say take it easy. that being said, if anything were to go wrong (GOD FORBID), it would not be becuase of the exercise. you didnt do anything wrong. just put your feet up with some tea and call it a night :)
 
Hi all

Even though my little button is now an angel. I just really think it is interesting how common miscarriages are. Some statistics say 1in 5 pregnancy's end in miscarriage and some say 1in 4. You just need to look at the title bar above to notice that these statistics are pretty spot on.

I am sorry for anyone who's rainbow baby is now an angel but please be hopeful for the future. And for those with rainbow baby's I hope the next 6 months are healthy and drama free.

Just wanted to share my comments about the statistics.

Xx

It is quite shocking how many people have had a miscarriage once you start talking about it.

I know this will not help you now, and will not make it easier (nothing can), but once I had my second daughter after my miscarriage, I knew it happened for a reason. Without my miscarriage, I would not have my daughter, and I would not change anything for the world.

It is hard to understand why these things happen when they do, but now I fully understand why I had my miscarriage....it was so I could have my second baby girl.
 
Hi all .. Is anyone else having trouble eating a meal? .. I made cottage pie last night and was only able to eat maybe half of it then started feeling sick. I can only seem to eat half the food i make but i am loving Chicken Fried Rice from the Chippy and can eat all of that with Curry sauce and Prawn Crackers. Feel bad that i can only eat Junk food without feeling sick :/
 
I am eating far far less than I was before too!

I got my scan date for my 20 week scan today! 14th march. :-D

Thanks. I'm hoping so. Called my GP and she's going to refer me to the early pregnancy unit so I should get a scan tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
 
That's great Kirin it'll be peace of mind and you'll get to see your baby again :)

I completely lost my appetite for a few weeks and normally I love food. I got take away last weekend and couldn't finish half of it which is unheard if for me. I also prefer junk food lol I had mcdonalds for the first time in years last week. It was yum!
 
At least its not just me thats lost my appetite. i know junk food isn't the best for baby but its all i can manage to eat. im sure in a few weeks i will get my normal appetite back and be able to finish a nice homemade meal. :)

i have my 12 week scan tomorrow at 3pm. i'm excited but so nervous, just want everything to be okay.

im so sorry for all the loses that have happened! i don't know what its like but i hope you are all doing okay and keeping strong. Hugs to all of you!
 
Well ladies, I had my scan today and they are showing I'm only 7 +3 when by my LMP I should be 8 +6. I don't know if I O'd late because I'm bf'ing or what. But they said based on baby's size, my edd is Sept. 7th. If you don't mind if I stay in here, odds are I'll still have an Aug baby as my last two were early due to high BP. I'm trying to rack my brain as to why the baby is so small, but the tech said it looked good, and the heart beat was 135. Could see the blood flow in and out so hopefully I just O'd late.

Have any of you ladies had your NT scan results back yet? I got mine today, she rang me just as I was dropping my LO off at nursery so didn't hear all of what she said! But my results were 1 in 20,000 and 1 in 40,000. Not sure which way round but she said the normal range here is 1 in 500 so I'm very pleased with that!

I'm a bit worried about my under active thyroid, I don't really understand the levels it needs to be when pregnant! When I went in for scan the doctor looked at my notes and said she wasn't happy at all with the levels and my dose needed to be put up. But then I had an appointment with a different hospital about my thyroid and they said they are not concerned about the results and my dose should stay the same! Then today my doctors receptionist rings me and says I need to come in tomorrow to talk to my doctor about my thyroid. So we shall see what happens. Does anyone know what levels should be at? Im concerned that I have been told different things by different doctors! Im so worried incase they get it wrong and something happens :(

I can't stop eating! I'm so hungry all the time, but then once I've eaten I feel sick.

The past few days my tiredness has came back really bad, I have no energy at all. I don't know if this could be do to with my thyroid though.

Lovecakes I am really pleased everything is ok with your little beany xx

Great news on your NT results. I'm dreading mine. Can I be really cheeky and ask your age?
 
I haven't gotten my results back because I haven't had the NT scan done yet... however, with my Dr's office they do your blood draw 10 days before your scan and then have the results there at the office with the scan machine. That way, they take all their measurements, input them into the computer with your blood draw results, and have you wait 10-15 minutes after your scan. Then a genetic counselor comes out and tells you your results right then and there.

If you choose to combine it with the second trimester screen, they will update your results in a letter and mail it to you.

My scan is on Feb 11th so I'll get my results same day.
