Could it be over again?

[MinnieMone]

Hi everyone

I'm currently six weeks pregnant after 2 previous mc's, the last one in March (had no AF between the end of that one, getting pregnant again).

On Thursday morning I woke up to find a very dark spot in my pants, I thought that was probably it as that's how my 2nd mc started, however, since then I have had no cramps (only a full feeling, like just before a period), and the only blood I have seen has been when I wipe (and then it is v.v. light and mucousy), but nothing has reached my panty liner.

I am beside myself with worry again, having called the dr on standby at my surgery today he just said to go to bed, and not to have sex!!! Oh my god I could have killed him.

I know it's just a waiting game, I have a scan booked at St Mary's on Thursday, although I'm sure it will be game over by then. Last time from beginning of seeing blood to full flow was only about 12 hours, and the only bit of hope i have is that it hasn't started in earnest yet.

I would be grateful for any advice, there is no point in going to A&E is there? I started off with bedrest today, but then I couldn't just lie there, if it's going to happen it will right?

Anyone had any experience of this...... I never wanted to go through this again.

Thanks. Mone

I'm so sorry you're going though this I don't have any advice, just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you and hoping that everything is ok. Bleeding doesn't necessarily mean mc, but I imagine it's a terrifying thing to go through (mine was a mmc, so never experienced that part). Bedrest probably won't stop a miscarriage if it's going to happen, but all you can do right now is take care of your baby by taking care of your baby's mom. Hopefully you have someone supportive around. Take care sweetie, I hope all goes well at your scan Please let us know how you're doing

Mone, I heard that 70% of bleeds in early preg carry to term. I know it must be terrifying for you, having lost before. You're right, there's not a lot you can do at this stage except look after yourself and bubs as well as possible. Keep hydrated eat properly and rest up.

Thinking of you xx

I had bleeding at 6 weeks and took my self straight to A&E at my local hospital, they where great with me, i had a scan and all was well. I then had more bleading at 13+4 and did exactly the same, went straight to A&E and again they where great and had another scan and again all was well. If you are worried go to your locan A&E it helped me!!

Hope all workes out well. xx

Hey hun,

Just wanted to say try not to worry... the bleed you have sound extremely light and hasn't worsened- I'd say thats a positive sign.

I had a bleed 2 weeks ago and was told I miscarried... but since have seen my beta HCG double... I have a scan tomorrow morning and hope I get good news.

Think positively hun, I'm sure little bean will be ok!!

Keep us updated.

Thank you all so much for your replies.....I wish it could be better news... the bleeding tapered over the weekend and stopped yesterday evening completely, so we actually began to feel very hopeful.

We decided to go to the epu this morning anyway just to put our minds at rest, but there appears to have been no growth at all since last week and no sign of a fetal pole, so they think I will lose in the next few days, or will need medical management.

It is my OH's birthday as well today, so a terrible start to the day, but I'm coping ok, and somehow managing to act like nothing has happened which is very strange, as I was an emotional wreck with the other two, i think I'm just numb to the pain now after a third loss.

cupcake - good luck for tomorrow, i'm sure it will be fantastic news, sounds like your lil bubs is a fighter!

Thanks Tulip - I hope your scan went well today.

Sweetheart I am so sorry, my heart goes out to you. Will the docs now investigate why you keep losing your precious beans?

Lots of love xxx

So sorry to hear your news Minniemone. Was really hoping it was going to work out for you this time. Life can be so crap sometimes!

I've had what I'm pretty sure is a chemical, and going to see my Doctor on Wed to try and get it confirmed.

After hysterical crying on Friday and claiming I never wanted to be pregnant again, I actually feel quite calm now, and want to know if I can try again straight away. Maybe not the best idea, I don't know, but that's the way I'm coping with it!

Love to both of you
Take Care

Very sorry to read this MinnieMone . I had something similar in my first pregnancy and stupidly believed the midwife when she said it was nothing and refused an early scan. I was 11 weeks before I pretty much marched into the EPU and demanded a scan - no growth beyond 7 weeks. I know it's small consolation but you did the right thing getting yourself checked out. Take care of yourself (and your poor DH on his birthday) and I hope a sticky bean finds it's way to you soon. xxx
