Due In May :)

[AerisandAlex]

Thanks girls

Sass that does look like a great hospital, after speaking with my mother more about it, we may call up there but we thought about doing something else closer to home first...

I've been coming to terms with the loss again and trying to accept it as it is but the fact my doctor is arguing with the ER has been really getting to me... My mother, having her master's in nursing is very uneasy with the results as well... Her's and mine's worse fears is having a D&C performed and the pregnancy be viable... apparently she's heard of it happening all too often around here and I really don't want that to be the case...

So we're calling my insurance company in the morning and looking for a OB around here that's good (my mother has a good list of them ) and looking for a second opinion scan probably in about a week...

In the meantime, so my OB doesn't get upset, we're just going to tell her we don't want the D&C right now, or any medication to help me miscarry, need time to think about it, see if happens on it's own, (since I feel like that's going to be one of the 'talks' tomorrow...) so that way we get enough time in between to have a second opinion....

If the second doctor matches either the ER or my doctor, I would feel so much better about my decision... It just makes me very worried that they're not agreeing that there is a fetus or isn't one... The doctor at the ER sounded so sure, and I specifically asked if he saw a fetus and he said they did find one and my doctor is saying "There's just a sac and it stopped growing" it just seems weird...

For right now I'm going to settle with the bad news so I don't get my hopes up this time but I'll keep you girls updated too on what's going on and will check up on you guys as well

It really helps hearing about all your little beans and seeing the u/s pics, I'm so excited for all of you

 

[Sass827]

I totally agree with you and your mom. It seems odd and not trust worthy. Get your second opinion for sure. I'm keeping all of my fx for you A.

I am hoping for you, such a horrible confusing time for you

I am having a scary time myself right now, I have no choice but to take anti-biotics for a bad ear infection (otherwise there'll be a rupture) and it's called Cephalexin.

I don't like what I hear about it, but it's all I've been given by my doctor who says "you're 10 weeks, so it's ok"

 

[Sass827]

That sucks pro. Hope u feel better soon!

 

[AerisandAlex]

I'd be worried too prolifer, I don't even like taking tylenol during the first weeks, maybe they think you're close enough to your second trimester though that it's okay, I hope you get better soon!

 

[prolifer]

Thanks ladies and I hope you get your little miracle AnA xx

I'm almost 100% sure it's safe so try not to worry, they give it for a range of things and its one of the few that are safe. Sometimes it's better to treat the issue than to leave it.

 

[Hann12]

AanaA - that sounds like a good plan, I think you need to find out what is actually there. Also if there is a chromosomnal abnormality then they should be able to run tests to tell you what it was. I have my FX for you

 

[Hann12]

Jary where did you end up getting your mat jeans from? I got new look ones yesterday but they keep falling down! Already annoying me and they've only been on for an hour!

 

[prolifer]

Well I've taken my last anti-biotic for the day, that's 4 in all and took some paracetamol but I am still in sheer agony right now. I swear, give me contractions anyday over an ear infection, at least you know when the contractions will end - this pain is horrible!!!!

 

[Hann12]

Hopefully they will work very soon - they are normally fast working! Trouble is that the best antibiotics are often the ones you can't take in pregnancy so you have yo make do with not so effective ones. I get UTIs and normally take nitrofuarantoin but can't take them in pregnancy so I have to make do with cephalexin or amoxicillin - not as effective!

 

[prolifer]

Well doc told me I'd feel better in 24 hours but what am I supposed to do in the meantime?? >.< waahh I hate it so bad :/

I could never wish this pain on anyone!

Goodnight all, I will try to sleep but I don't fancy my chances! Oh hey, I am a Lime today ^^

 

[shellgirl]

I think you're totally fine with the antibiotics Profiler. My doctor assured me some of those are safe and he/she wouldn't give them to you if you weren't. I had to take some before I got my BFP and was worried it would mess with implantation, but it turned out I got pregnant, so all in all, good thing I took them.

 

[prolifer]

Well my paracetamol kicked in and I was ready to sleep - and oh wow - now I can't stop coughing and coughing and coughing! urk! Is there no relief?

 

[Sass827]

Make sure to eat some yogurt to offset those antibiotics. Hope you feel better soon!

Hows everyone doing today?

 

[eggo preggo]

AandA really think you are doing the best possible thing by getting a second opinion. My prayers are with you x

Profile did you manage to sleep? Feeling any better today?

Feeling a little weak today, like I just want to curl up and sleep all day!

Hi ladies. Just checking in as I have been out of town for a few days and did not get on bnb. I had to read 7 pages to catch up everyone has been so busy!

A&A-hugs to you!

 

[BDownmommie]

The last few days i have been sooooo tired, it's unreal. I make sure that every night I get a minimum of 8 - 8.5 hours sleep - plus i usually take a nap for about half an hour when i get home from work, still doesn't matter. I have no energy = I barely have the strength to keep my eyes open at work...week 12 can't come soon enough, I really hope this all changes in the really near future.

I already feel like I am sleeping away this pregnancy...gosh my twins must love sleeping...

** Had to fight with my doc to give me a request for bloodwork (it's almost as though she thinks I like getting blood drawn) - she said it was unnesecary!!! I want to know what my iron levels are at bc of how tired I am all the time - I get dizzy spells too - so it really caught me as a requirement to check into. Finally got it today....now, to find a clinic around work - yikes!!

A&A - totally agree with the other posts, second opinion - third opinion - who cares, your body your bean - its your choice. Only when you are comfortable should you move forward. Best wishes...

I got a job yesterday I start the 29th. I did not tell them about the pregnancy and don't plan to until the probation period is up. However, I do have a doc appointment the 5th, which is the long one. I suppose I will bring it up on the 29th. Totally slipped my mind at the interview yesterday. Bad thing is the hours are 9-5 Monday thru friday and that don't leave me much time for drs appointments without having to miss work.

I'm going to order a doppler today but not sure if to get the 2mhz or 3mhz. Suggestions?

 

[JustFluffy]

Congrats Powell! So happy for you! Working 9-5 has been kicking my butt, but it's getting better not that I am growing out of the exhaustion phase!

AFM- I feel SUPER fat today!!! I think I may have popped as they say or what not. Either way I feel like I do not look PG but definitely look like I have been eating too many cheeseburgers in my belly area. Dang, it may be time to break the news to my team at work... Maybe I will just wait for them to figure it out... GRR, I don't like this pudgy feeling.
