Darling buds of May and June bugs!

Because you all seem to have booked your appointments, i have booked mine for Tuesday at 9.30.

xx

Well crud! Lol! I am so scared to book an appointment! I wanted to wait until 8wks, but DH said that because of the MC that they might monitor me more and with my Diabetes, that I need to start seeing one now. Wah!! I just wanted to live in a little bubble for a while and not have to worry about scary scans where my baby might not be alive. Blah! I guess I have to be a grown up about this, don't I?

I will be getting ahold of an OB today or tomorrow. I will not be using the same one because I have a strong feeling that he had something to do with my MC.

Could you not get an early scan with your OB with previous MC? I know what you mean about trying to live in a bubble, I tend to bury my head when things get difficult...not necessarily baby wise but deffo in other situations. Anyways! Positive thoughts!

Out of curiosity, why do you think your OB had something to do with the MC? and how do you go about choosing an OB? Healthcare seems so much more complicated in the states (I am from the states (until I was 23) but now live in UK)

fx for you and please do not worry!!

well I've gone to sleep then to work and come back to check the thread and have 4 pages to go through lol!!

I'm working from home today and was trying to stay off bnb but have just had a sneaky look now. I went into work and they are renovating a room close to my desk and have been banging about all week, well today they were painting. So I left about 1130 ish to work rest of the day from home, talk about working conditions when preggo!!! (but not like I could say that really though, but wanted too so my co-workers didn't think I was a drama queen) but hey ho!!

i've not had any ms (knock on wood) but didn't have any with last pregnancy either. Its a bit surreal at the minute!! I've not had time to stop and think really about names or anything for baby as we've just moved and between work and toddler I'm exhausted most of the time!!

I am concerned about weight gain though!!! I just got pre-preggo weight so its like, here we go again!! I gained over 4stone (50lbs) with Dylan... and he wasn't even full term!! So deffo not eating crap this time around, and deffo will not use the mantra ''eating for two'' that got me in lots of trouble!!!

well, hope everyone has had a lovely day so far with our little beans!!

anyone tempted to poas again?

and I've not heard back from my midwife either!! but she is notorious for not texting straight back..

I was pretty convinced I was pregnant before taking the test - but then I've been convinced every month since February that I was pregnant and found many ways to convince myself that the tests were lying when they said I wasnt!

My main sign this time though was a pain sort of under my arm/the side of my boob when my arm pressed against it. I got it in the month I got pregnant with my MC and wondered what it was, then I got it a couple of weeks ago when picking up some shopping bags in sainsburys and just knew that it had to be a sign.

WOW i had that too but i didn't know it was a sign i had it like 3 or 4 days before my test was pos

what an interesting symptom! never heard of it.

I felt sooo weird when I had the ectopic pregnancy, strangest symptoms. I also had a gut feeling the whole time that the pregnancy wasnt going to go to term, and I'm normally very optimistic and not a worrier. I give mother's intuition a lot more credit now! luckily this time around, I have a much better feeling.

The first time it happened I was lying on my side and stretched up to give my hubby a kiss and I was like "ooh what was that?". Second time I picked the bags up, felt it and thought, "yay I must be pregnant again!"

It's kind of like sore boobs but more on the sides than anywhere else!

It's the scans that I am scared of. We had a scan at 8wks where we saw a happy thriving baby with a wonderful heartbeat. Then at 12wks the scan showed that the baby died at 8 1/2 weeks. Just a couple of days after seeing our baby. I cant go through seeing a live happy baby again only to have it taken away. I would rather wait until the dating scan, but I know that is not the best option for me or the baby and I just have to suck it up and do it.

We think think the OB unintentionally caused the miscarriage by prescribing medication that is known to cause MC's. I had BV during the first tri and was given a vaginal medication. I took it for the week before my 8wk scan. Then they say 3days later the baby died. I did some research on the medication after the fact and it is known to cause MC's in the first tri. I dont blame him, if he didnt know, but want a dr who is knowledgable about what he is giving his patients while pregnant.

Thats terrible Its something i'm really worried about but trying to just enjoy everyday at the moment.
It sounds ridiculous but almost feel like poas everyday just to put my mind at ease lol.

Has anyone else been really emotional? Cry at the slightest thing. Especially anything to do with babies lol. Asked oh if he still loved me even though i was loopy now lol. He said i'd always been a bit loopy anyway! Charming

 

[BrandysBabies]

I love your husband! Lol! And yes, everything makes me cry! The fact that I am eating us out of house and home made me burst into tears last night. I swear I ate enough for two grown men at dinner last night. Crying and lack of caffine gave me a headache so Dh sent me to bed at 8pm! I only meant to take a nap, but woke up at 8am this morning. Lol.

 

[moggi]

Glad i'm not alone lol. It doesnt matter what time i go to bed, i'm always woken up about 4 hrs later for the loo and then can't drop off again for at least half an hour!

I forgot about caffeine withdrawal, that must be whats wrong with me too. I used to get through so many cups of coffee in a day and now ive switched to de caff it just isn't the same lol.

 

[minidancer]

Sorry you had to go through that brandy We are here for you to try and help with your worries. I hope you manage to get a different OB, it must be hard to put your trust in them now, but I'm sure everything will be fine this time

Moggi I have been sooo emotional, was going to post on here that I was an emotional wreck watching deal or no deal earlier

 

[BrandysBabies]

Yep, the caffine withdrawl is killer. My weakness is soda. Dr. Pepper to be exact. And I shouldnt be drinking it anyway with my Diabetes, but well, I'm addicted. I have not had one in 3 days now and I feel like I am dying!

Thanks! I really am trying to stay positive about this baby. I want to enjoy every minute of it while I can.

I know what you mean, i am a bit scared of the scans myself but in many ways would prefer an early scan.

With both my blighted ovum and my missed miscarriage we found out at the rountine 12 week nuchal scan and it was devasting. To find out earlier doesnt make it easier but at least if it was something like a blighted ovum i would know before 13 weeks.

If I see a healthy baby and then lose it that will be devasting too, but with my missed miscarriage i asked the lady to show me the screen, she turned it round and i saw my lovely baby for the first time, it was about 9 weeks old. I kissed the image i saw on the screen, told it I loved it, and said goodbye. Despite the sadness its still nice that I saw my baby just the once, so I am not frightened of an early scan anymore.

I have decided to press on like everything is fine and i have a baby on the way. I want to enjoy every minute. If it doesnt work out then so be it, but if it does then i want to treasure every moment of pregnancy (except the last few weeks - they are tiresome!!!)

without diet coke and coffee I'm going crazy!!!

switched to 7up to still get the fizzy goodness and blueberry & apple herbal tea for drinks at home and decaf from the machine at work. Lucky me though, the switch to decaf hasn't caused any suspicion as loads drink decaf at work as it tastes better!! xx
