hormone crash after ERPC

Happy Anniversary Bernie & Mr Bernie xx

So sorry you’re having a tough time Blu, bleeding is so scary. But it sounds like baby is strong and growing and developing normally, so that is a great sign. FWIW, with my last pregnancy my baby was very ill and I never bled once, not even after he died, so I didn’t think blood or lack thereof is a great indicator of anything. Also, if I had an u/s at 9 weeks it would have already showed the beginnings of a problem with baby and your u/s showed a healthy little one. Sometimes women bleed for no identifiable reason, though I know it doesn’t make it any less scary.

Bernie – happy belated anniversary! Hope you and your DH had a great date night. Haha between our babies living on opposite sides and the fact that I got my BFP quickly and yours took longer is really making me wonder if I’m team pink, LOL. I’ve heard that women pregnant with girls test positive sooner because the hcg is generally higher with girls. And on that note I think it’s only fair that I should get to choose the name if baby is a girl seeing how DH has already picked the boy name.

Jaspie we’ll see if you can resist testing, LOL. I swore I’d hold off until 14dpo…then decided to test on 10dpo. Naturally on 8dpo I couldn’t resist POAS as soon as I got home from work, haha. And since it was negative then I just had to try again the next morning at 9dpo.

How is your week going Hopie?

Going to get my blood drawn tomorrow and the anatomy scan will be when I’m 11 weeks 6 days. So nervous already, but I’m trying not to think about it.

Thanks Fit, i didnt bleed with my miscarriage eithet until after the scan. This pregnancy is so different to DS. Are you going to find out the gender?x

 

[bernie86]

Thank you for all the anniversary wishes! we had a nice night out. Fit- I think my side theory is out the window because he moved up and over to the right now lol. but maybe the early positive test be an indicator. I tested positive early last time as well and that was a girl. Im so glad that you have your scan scheduled so soon. it will be such a relief to see the baby and get your results. Blu-hopefully you are feeling more relaxed now and the little bit of blood is just left over, and im hoping that will be the last of that for you! I guess there is no rule of thumb, and each pregnancy is as unique as the child

Since I know you all know how much positive thoughts and prayers have helped us all get through, I have a favor to ask! My dear friend who has had two early miscarriages found out that she has a chromosome abnormality that gives her only a 20% chance of conceiving naturally a healthy baby that will make it to term. Her only option is IVF with PGD. So I just would appreciate if you could all send some positive energy or prayers her way and hopefully this option will work for her and she will only have to go through it once. its expensive and I dont think she could handle another loss. Thank you!!!

Oh Bernie Im really sorry to hear about your friend, sending her loads of very healthy sticky baby dust! Really hope she gets her happy ending 👪
My bleeding has stopped today, really hope thats it now!! I still have no gender vibes but this pregna cy is so different that it makes me wonder if its a girl x

 

[jaspie]

Bernie I'm thinking of your friend and sending her all the positive vibes in the world. I really hope this is a success for them. Glad you had a lovely anniversary.

Very glad the bleeding has stopped Blu. My friend on here had bleeding throughout 1st tri and she's absolutely fine, nearly 30 weeks now. I'm sure all is good! And yeah i had no bleeding whatsoever with the last pregnancy even though it had gone wrong so next time I'm not even going to bother checking for it since bleeding or not means nothing really. Last time i was so paranoid about seeing blood i checked the paper every single time i went to the toilet. I was so overly anxious with it...intuition eh! Are you looking forward to your scan tomorrow?

Fit I'm not surprised you are nervous, but i have a great feeling all will be wonderful! I'm not sure when I'm going to test yet, probably be early though....Might try and wait til 10dpo this time but who knows! That's next Weds so a week today.

Hopie i hope you're ok and this week is better for you xx

 

[Blu10]

Well ive had more brown bleeding today argggggggghhhhhh wish it would just p*ss right off!! I am anxious about my scan jaspie and just hoping and praying that all is well. I cant do this again, will update tomorrow xx

 

[jaspie]

Will be thinking of you tomorrow, what time is it? Sending you hugs, I'd be anxious too but there's every chance he/she is just fine like last week xx

 

[Blu10]

Thanks Jaspie, I sure hope so as I cant face another first tri! Scan is at 10.30 x

 

[hopie2015]

Hi all! Sorry for delay -- horrible week.. won't go into it.

Blu- best of luck tomorrow. Good that it is brown..that seems to make it likely it is leftover blood from the other week. I know what you mean by not wanting to face another first tri. We all have everything crossed for you tomorrow you get wonderful news from the scan again!
I have friends who know people who bled a lot through the first 2 trimesters and had totally healthy babies. Keep staying strong!

Happy 2nd Anniversary Bernie! Glad you guys had a great celebration and you sound like you're feeling good!

Fit- good idea with trying not to think about the upcoming scan. Just take each day as it comes...day by day. Have such a GOOD feeling for you this time around!

Jaspie- have SUCH a good feeling for you this month!!! We are all so excited to symptom hunt with you the next couple weeks!

So sweet Blu..get on a plane to NYC.. I sure would love that. You all have turned out to be better friends, nicer people that my 'real life' friends.
My dad has gotten worse. Mother isn't really improving. Her mood is also awful, saying horrific things. Not herself at all. I am utterly drained.
DF coming over after work to help and I'll go for a walk to gain sanity back.
Thanks so much all for the well wishes.
GOOD LUCK tomorrow, Blu!! xxxxxx

 

[jaspie]

We're always here for you hopie whenever you need a friend. I'm sorry things are so hard with your parents right now i hope you get some peace on your walk. Thinking of you xx

Don't blame you Blu! But you will not need to have another first tri, you'll be in second tri in a couple of weeks! Feeling good for you and will be thinking of you tomorrow xx

 

[bernie86]

thank you all for sending her some baby dust! Blu everything will be great at the scan tmw, sorry this little one is giving you so much to worry about. But I think that everything is going to be great this scan as well! Jaspie cant wait to hear how it goes next wed! Hopie- Im sorry things arent getting much better. I wish there was a way for you to get a little break... I worry that you'll fall in to depression worrying about your parents. Are you an only child? Hopefully DF coming will help relieve some stress for you. hope you all are having a great "hump Day" Im over this week... its been nuts at my office and Im stressed thinking about how much needs to get done in the next five months before little man comes!I need to start making a list and getting stuff done!! I had a minor melt down yesterday and just cried in to my hubby for like 30 mins! If you saw my Calendar for Sept, oct and early Nov. you'd know why! all my friends are getting married this year while im going to look like shamu! blah! its probably going to all be fine!

 

[Fit_Mama2Be]

Checking in late tonight, what a tiring day.

Hopie I'm so sorry things still aren't going very well with your parents. I hope you have other family members helping you out. Your mom is only being that way because she is frustrated and upset and taking it out on the ones closest to her, but I know that doesn't make it any easier. Hope the walk helps and that you get to take a longer break from your troubles one of these days soon.

Bernie so sorry to hear about your friend, that is so unfair. Prayers coming her way. Sorry to hear your job is draining you lately. I wish I had some advice, but unfortunately mine is the same. I'm exhausted and my brain is foggy from pregnancy and they're just about killing me with the workload. We needed to hire 2 more people like a year ago and it just doesn't seem to be happening. Just when I think it can't get any worse it does.

Blu everything crossed for your scan tomorrow, but Baby Blu seems to be a real fighter so I think everything will be great. I know how you feel - I don't think I could bear another first trimester either, but I don't think you'll have to. Maybe you're right and Baby Blu is a girl! I'll be finding out the gender though I'm not sure exactly when - will you be?

Jaspie I hope the 2 week wait is going quickly and you have some symptoms next week!

I had my blood drawn today but won't get the results until we meet with the genetic counselor right after the u/s. I managed to be half an hour late for the appointment because I got lost - when I was literally 4 blocks from where the office was located. It turns out I was looking for a fictitious address that was completely different from the office's actual address, which I had on my phone and written down in my purse. My third incidence of baby brain and I think the worst one yet - wandering the streets for half an hour looking for a non-existent address and wondering why I couldn't find it.

Morning ladies.

Hopie im so sorry that things are rubbish right now. Someone once said if you didnt have really low points you wouldnt appreciate the really good times, I hope this is true. Youve had your fair share (and more) of bad luck and hassle this year and I hope your parents inprove soon.
Fit yes I will be finding out the sex if we get that far, fingers crossed. Should know by my 20 week scan.
Jaspie any symptoms yet?
Bernie hope youre ok hun, brain fog doesnt go away either lol.
Well its D day for me, im so nervous today, feel twn times worse than my wedding day. Got some discomfort ony right aide so im wondering if thats to do with my cyst. Will update as soon as i can xxx

Scan found an area of bleeding unrelated to baby which will either bleed out or be reabsorbed. Over the moon. Thanks for all the reassurance and well wishes, you are all amazing. Lots of love xxxx
