Crystal the nurse reassured me that cramping is absolutely normal.

I was just cramping, and thank God I read Your post! One thing less to worry about than my hcg levels

I'm glad to hear this... I've been having decent cramps on and off throughout the day and was getting a little worried.

Does anyone else have sore abdominals??

setarei... I hope all is well... I will be praying for you!

Thanks borr, waiting on the hcg results but I won't feel reassured until I get another blood test on Friday to see the doubling time.

After three losses, diagnosis with homozygous MTHFR, aspirin allergy, low progesterone and empty sac at first scan... I think I can say things aren't looking good.

I've been balling my eyes out for 45 minutes.

I wish my mom was here to give me a hug... But heaven is just too far away for that.

Sorry to hear Hoping for the best for you hun!

Oh Crystal...don't even think that way. Your scan was SO early and it's so normal to not see anything in the sac yet. Your numbers were good and your US tech said she felt positive. Keep a smile on your face. I'm crossing everything I can for you.

 

[setarei]

Aww crystal, I'm so sorry. I know it's hard but I'm choosing to not give up unless I see the lack of a heartbeat in a week or two. Your US was early so an empty sac isn't necessarily bad news. Lean on the people here, they've been great support.

Crystal have you talked to your doctor? Will you be having another scan soon?

I wish you all the best and lots of growth to your little beans. This time is such a delicate time, to hear sadness while we should be rejoicing nags at the heart and makes me worry so much about my own pregnancy. I plan to leave this thread, just for a while. I hope that when I return after some time has passed, I can have fun relishing in my pregnancy with you all. Right now, it just feels like a huge miscarriage watch and I can't do that. They have threads specifically for that. Please don't take this to be mean spirited in any way. Big hugs to you all, and I look forward to the fun stories we can share after our pregnancies have progressed.

I do!! Because I catched a cold and cant stop coughing!

Tomorrow is a big day for us... if my HCG levels havent doubled, then it means we´re screwed!

Girls with bleeding and bad cramping - I am keeping fingers crossed for you, so it turns out to be allright.

Beemama321, I completely disagree with you! Being afraid of a miscarriage is a huge part of early pregnancy and you cannot deny it. Can you imagine how scared the girls are? If you cannot, I will tell, as I was there - the fear is paralyzing. You also feel very helpless, because a lot of times there is nothing you can do but wait. By implying that women with bleeding or any worrisome symptoms should go to elsewhere you are making me very sad. And I can only imagine how bad they must feel reading it. I know that you didn't mean to be offensive, but that really hearts.

 

[setarei]

Beemama, I'm sorry to have upset you. I thought the point of this thread was for camaraderie between us expectant moms who are at the same stage of their pregnancies. I don't want to cause you or others distress and will be careful not to mention such worries in the future.

 

[Angelmarie]

I think this is the perfect place to air concerns! Lots of us haven't told people so can't confide in friends or family. Perhaps we don't want to worry our partners either?

We are all at similar stages of our pregnancies so it is comforting that others have the same symptoms and can share experience and encourage each other to stay positive (which is often difficult to do especially if you've suffered losses or pregnancy complications).

These threads provide a great support network for everyone. I think it's fantastic how girls from all over the world come together sharing one wonderful and scary experience- lending an ear to confide in, a shoulder to cry on and words of celebration when all the good things happen (of which plenty will! PMA)

I'm sorry you don't feel that you fit into this, Beemama.

Wishing every one of you the best of luck and lots of

 

[twinkletots]

I agree Angelmarie, the title of this thread is all welcome and everyone will go through ups and downs throughout the next 9 months so lets support each other through the bad stuff as well as the happy things.

I for one am feeling very positive today as am starting to feel pukey, woo hoo! Also I have gone from one tender boob to having two tender boobs, double woo hoo!!

Sorry to hear about those of you having scary symptoms just now but try to keep hopeful and sending you

Unfortunately we live in the real world - there are highs and lows to pregnancy, and if anyone thinks that they can be in a pregnancy forum and not hear any moaning or worry over 9 mths then they live in a dream land! Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and are free to say what they like.. what I hate more than anything is people that can't accept others for who they are and what they feel!

we're all different, but right now so similar...

Here's to the highs and lows and sticking together

Lol xx

Sorry to read that some of you are having worrying symptoms today. I just wanted to say brown blood is usually much less concerning than red as it is old. So many ladies have early pregnancy bleeding and go on to have healthy babies, I am one, when you think about it the chance of baby snuggling in without hitting a blood vessel or two is actually quite slim. Brown blood can just be from growth and implantation.

We're at such a difficult stage right now because there is so little that can be monitored. Im finding it a bit easier this time than with my little girl but sometimes the worry creeps up on me too.

Thinking of you all and sending lots of positive vibes for healthy babies. X

 

[borr.dg.baby]

I am sorry to hear that some of you are going through a rough time with bleeding and scary symptoms.

AFM, I don't want to think negative and I always try to stay positive, also since there is really nothing I can do and I truly believe if something happens to my bean it's because it was meant to happen if my bean was not strong enough to survive.

All I can do is take care of myself and that way ensure a good home for the bean to survive in, it's really all up to him-her.

I wanted to share my last POAS since I will be getting my u-s tomorrow morning.




I am feeling anxious and nervous about my u-s but mostly I am hoping to be able to see something.
