February 2015 Rainbows

[eme]

eme. My first is July 1. We are doing a long weekend to the beach this weekend and next (Wed night-Sun) so I'm trying to keep myself distracted. How are you feeling?

Raspberry and Confuzion: I agree, I am in denial, trying to protect myself too, I believe. It's so hard sometimes.

Welcome Zombie and Lynnikins!

Well, to not go into a lot of detail, on my work trip to Amsterdam this past weekend I had the miscarriage. My DH went with me on the trip so thank goodness he was there. We actually were able to do a bit of site seeing and I had a few glasses of and then headed to the hospital later in the evening to have an ultrasound to rule out ectopic. I'm actually doing rather okay. I cried some this weekend but am now just wanting to get to the bottom of "WHY!" this is happening!

I have a few rounds of appointments and genetic testing coming up, next week I meet with my OB and I hope to get referred to a specialist!

Oh eme

My nhs scan is 30th July so I'll be getting maybe two private scans maybe at 9 & 11weeks or 8 & 10 if I can't wait xx

 

[Woofie1015]

Hugs eme.


So, I got blood drawn today and they are supposed to call me tomorrow. I'm excited to hear some good news and at the same time trying to brace myself for the worst. I've been feeling zero symptoms today and I know they're supposed to come and go but it's really bringing me down. Like how silly of me to think things will just be fine this time. Ugh.

Anyway, sorry for the negative-nancy post. I think I'm just on the downswing of the rollercoaster right now. Hopefully I'll be back with good news!

Oh Eme. I am so sorry. but I am so glad your husband was with you. That is always helpful. And I am so glad they'll be doing testing to try and help you determine what is going on. It's nice when doctors can be proactive. will continue to pray for you!

 

[babyfeva]

Hi ladies.
Eme, so sorry about your loss. I.hope you get answers soon!
I had my first scan today and got to see a.heartbeat but baby measured initially at 5 weeks 6 days then 6 weeks 3 days. Should I be worried? I should be about.7 weeks. Dr put me on baby aspirin. I have another scan on June 25.

eme, I am so sorry. I am glad your husband was with you on your trip. Hoping you can get referred to a specialist and find out some answers. Thinking of you and sending a big

Woofie, hoping that you will hear good news tomorrow!

I never called the doctor today, I barely ate anything and I am ashamed to say I had carrots and potato chips for lunch. I am really craving wheat and unfortunately I shouldn't eat it. I will see if I feel the same way tomorrow I will definitely call because we are going away Thursday for a long weekend. My first ultrasound will be on June 25th.

Babyfeva: were you charting? Or is the 7 weeks date based on LMP? I only ask because my O date and expected based on LMP put me about 4 days off from one another. So I am "behind" based on LMP because I ovulated late. Always a pain trying to get a doctor to agree to that though lol.

I didnt chart this time. I just remembered I had ewcm on April 9.

 

[marathongirl]

Babyfeva- that's great you saw a hb!!!! I wouldn't worry about being a few days off as you could've O'd late. That's a great sign they saw a hb
Swanx- I see that you are still bf'ing. Do you feel like your nipples are a bit more sensitive? Mine seem so on and off but not as bad as when I was preggo and not bf'ing?

 

[confuzion]

Eme - You've been missed. I'm so sorry for what you've gone through .

Babyfeva - positive news that you saw a heartbeat!! FX that little bean keeps on growing

 

[jmandrews]

Hi! Care if I join? I found this through confuzion
Got my BFP on Saturday at 10dpo. EDD I think is Feb 25th.
MC on March 11th at 10 weeks 5 days. It was the worst experience of my life. The thought of it happening again is absolutely terrifying. I'm trying to tell myself to stay positive and be excited but in still very nervous. Hope you ladies are doing well. Going to try to read trough most of this but since I'm joining later I feel that I am way behind.

 

[babyfeva]

Hi jmandrews, welcome and congrats! I remember you from another thread and I also miscarried. So sorry about your loss again. I'm happy we're here again.

 

[jmandrews]

Hi! I remember you too! I'm sorry for your loss as well.
FX these are our rainbow babies in the making. Happy 7 weeks!

I am terrified. I just hope AF stays away and my lines get darker. She's due Wednesday.

 

[ShamzLovesKai]

So sorry Eme. It's good that your husband was there to help you get through it *hugs*

I haven't got a scan date yet!! I'm waiting to hear back about when my booking appt will be and hopefully they'll tell me when my scan is aswell. Going to the docs on Monday so going to try and persuade him to get me an early scan. Just for peace of mind and because my 12 week scan won't be until the beginning of August which feels like forever away!!

 

[confuzion]

Nice to see you here JM. So glad we get to go through this together. Hope it's a 9 month long journey.

Shamz - if you really need the scan for your peace of mind, I would push for it. With your previous loss, they should be understanding.

 

[ShamzLovesKai]

Yeah, I'm definitely going to ask for it. Hoping I can get one that week as the following I'm on holiday. Plus the end of next week is my birthday

 

[Woofie1015]

Welcome and congrats jmandrews!

 

[MrsLemon]

I have an appointment with the Midwife on Thursday, really hoping i can have a reassurance scan!

Back pain and a few abdominal cramps this morning just like last time :`(

 

[Katy78]

Welcome to all the girls who joined.

eme, again, I'm terribly sorry you went through that but I'm glad you didn't have to go through it alone.

babyfeva, don't worry. There's a heartbeat, congrats!

I had a dream last night I had an ultrasound and the sack was too small. Of course I then "knew" I was miscarrying. I woke up terrified. Then I told myself that it was only a dream and that my baby is doing fine.

I still haven't made an appointment, I'm waiting a bit longer this time, I want to see 3+ before i'll be confident enough to call my dr's office.

Sorry for not commenting on anything else. This thread is moving kind of fast and I've been very busy at work and at home. I just manage to read what's up about two times a day and that's it.

 

[jmandrews]

I should have stopped temping but I didn't. My temp dropped to coverline this morning. I did wake up before temping and fell back to sleep so not sure if that had anything to do with it. I am terrified now. Anyone experienced this? My tests are getting darker though. I'm not sure what to think.
