Cautiously Pregnant After A Loss. PMA, But Not Taking It For Granted.

[too_scared]

I can imagine a summer baby will be so nice. Being able to get out and not worry about freezing the kiddo. And getting out to let B play at the park or something while you feed baby sounds so great. That way both kiddos will be happy

Winter here is awful. Especially this winter. I can't wait for it to be over. I couldn't even take Finn out until the very end of last month. Brrrr!

How is everyone today? I hope you're all well.

Im good. its finnaly warmer in Montreal, although the weather is wonky still... I prefer rain than to -30... so Im happy.

I am super excited aboutthe scan. I hope it goes well and that I get to see the baby again... and that everything is ok.

In Quebec u get two scans covered by medicare 18-weeks and one after that... I have a history of MC so I think that's why the doctor is taking a few more... I also have to book an appointment for the tests where they measure the neck and stuff... that one is 400$ but we will do it.

 

[too_scared]

I'm glad you're being followed closely. I had more with my son too.

That is too bad that you have to pay for the other test. I'm not sure how it works in Quebec. I think it's a little different than it is here. Everything is covered here by our health care.

Remind me, when is your scan again? I've been so forgetful lately

It's warm-ish here today, about 11 C but it's windy. Supposed to be -2 again by Thursday. Darn weather lately. But I definitely agree, I would rather this than -30 again!

Wow just catching up congrats ladies. Like ickle said its strange not being part of the roller coster of ttc and bfps. Makes me miss it a little.

So so happy fir you all whoo hooooo. Xx

 

[too_scared]

Thank you Debzie How are you?

 

[debzie]

I'm good thanks ts. Back to work now and Chris is still away so things are hectic at times. Islas sleeping much better at the moment only waking once.

 

[too_scared]

I'm glad Isla is starting to sleep better. That's a small blessing in all the craziness of being back to work. Are you happy to be back?

 

[debzie]

I am in a way and not in others. I think bring a nurse us part of who I am as well as being a mam. Work is going through some exciting new changes to and it will be good to be part of it. I feel so split as I miss my kids so much when I'm there. I don't like not knowing what they have done or seen. It's strange.

 

[too_scared]

I can only imagine how hard it is to leave your kiddos. It's great that you are part of the changes at work.

I'm looking to start a WAHM business so I can stay home with the kiddo.

hey mindy how are you how many weeks are you I had some more spotting last night which has done nothing for my nerves trying to keep a pma but hard at times,i do still feel totally rubbish so hopefully that's a good sign

 

[ickle pand]

Fingers crossed it's nothing Kelly

I feel a bit out of place hanging about here - I had a mirena coil fitted yesterday so no pregnancy for me for the foreseeable future.

 

[too_scared]

Oh ickle, I hope you stick around (if you want to!) How was getting the coil? I hope you're doing good.

I'm sorry about the spotting, Kelly. I hope it's nothing. I had spotting with Finn at 8 weeks. How many weeks are you now? I think I'm 5+1. I have a doctor appt on Wednesday so I think I'm going to ask for an early scan then. I think feeling yuck is a great sign. This evening I'm feeling pretty yuck myself. I hope it's not a sign of what's to come! With Finn I didn't start feeling yuck until almost 6 weeks. I guess only time will tell! I hope you start feeling better soon. Are you going to get another scan before you are 12 weeks? I really think you should ask for one. For peace of mind. Stress is not good for you and baby.

 

[kelly1973]

I think I might ring them on Tuesday as I know I will just worry all the time. ill be 8 weeks Monday.
ickle I want you to hang out here you have always been a mindful of information and we need you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[too_scared]

I think that's a great idea. Then you get to see your beanie again

Has the spotting stopped?

 

[ickle pand]

I'll definitely stick around, it's just strange not to be there with you all.

Getting the coil wasn't too bad. I had cramping for a couple of days but there's barely anything now. I had a bit of spotting but I had my smear test done at the same time and that made me bleed a little so it could've been that.

 

[too_scared]

Glad it wasn't too bad.

 

[kelly1973]

touch wood no more spotting but ive had a tummy ache all day not cramps its horrid really starting to worry now

 

[Ummi2boyz]

Is there an EPAU in your area that you could call for a reassurance scan?

 

[too_scared]

Very glad the spotting has stopped. I think you definitely need a reassurance scan.

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Big Kelly, as you may remember I had bleeding and spotting till around 8 weeks with Noah. Are you able to have an early scan? X
