I know how you feel. I'm having a hard time believing I will ever have a baby. I've been getting shoulder pain and weird squeezing pain on my right side, so of course I think it's ectopic. I have been freaking out all day. I just got off the phone with my doctor and she said today's test is 2800. It more than doubled again so she thinks I have an ovarian cyst. Thankfully she scheduled my ultrasound for this Friday just in case. Until then I will be freaking out.

Hi, im cautiously joining you. Got a bfp last Friday and have an edd of January 15. I've had recurrent loss, and officially freaking out. I get my progesterone and hcg levels checked tomorrow. Im already on progesterone, so this is just to see if its helping or if it needs to be tweaked. Fingers crossed for us all!
Well I had my first ultrasound today. I thought I was 5 wks 4 days but I'm more around 5 wks. I got to see a gestational sac and yolk but not much of a baby yet. I'm just relieved it's not another blighted ovum like last year. Hopefully in a week or so I'll be able to see/hear a heartbeat.

I want to cautiously join too.
I got my first BFP on Friday with fmu. It was pretty light, but it was there. I tested again today to reassure myself a bit and only had about a 2 hour hold and it was about as dark as the control line
. I've had 3 losses in the last year, the last one being a very early chemical (Period wasn't even late, just got a weak positive on 10DPO, then negative the next day), so that made me feel better to think that I may not have another chemical pregnancy at least.
I'm 4w 2d now, due on Jan 20th, according to my O date. Dr will probably put me at Jan 14th (going by LMP) until some proof comes up otherwise, or if I can see a midwife instead.
I haven't talked to my Dr yet. I'm reluctant to because I've seen two heartbeats on an U/S in the last year, been jabbed to have blood taken and nothing to show for it, so I'm a bit jaded. I'm going to email the midwives here this week though and see if they're willing to take me on. I hope they will because I do strongly believe we've just had a run of bad luck. I never found out what happened the first time, but the second time, my body was quite happy carrying the baby until 10.5 weeks when it realized the baby wasn't healthy. He had a severe form of anencephaly. Completely random. #3 was so early that it was likely an implantation problem. At least two completely unrelated issues, so hopefully 4th time's the charm for #2.
Here's hoping this baby is The One for all of us!

I'm quite nauseous at the moment. Very apprehensive. I've worked out it wil be 19th Jan 2018. Seems so far away right now x
Hi there, would also like to join, feeling nervous. Got bfp today and due 26th January. I did fall pregnant last year just before Christmas. Got as far as 12 week scan and no bleeding. But at the scan the sac was there and measured 5-6 weeks. It was a missed miscarriage. Two days later I bled (that was February) and then we had one month not trying, have ttc the last two cycles. This is hopefully is but feel nervous that I will bleed and that even if I don't baby might not be developing.
But I'm only 4 weeks 1 day so gotta keep positive.
Hopefully we are all having our rainbow babies.

Well I had a scan today. I'm 7 weeks 6 days and had very light spotting this morning. They scheduled an ultrasound and everything looked great! Baby is 1.6 cm long with a heartbeat of 156 bpm. I had a scan last Friday and they found free fluid in my uterus. They believe that's what caused my spotting because today the free fluid was gone. I'm so relieved everything was ok. Btw baby was .94 cm at 7 wks 1 day with a heartbeat of 144 bpm. At least I know it's growing!

Ah that's good, how lovely to see a scan and get some reassurance.
I reach 6 weeks tomo and it's so scary waiting to get through this. I'm going to contact the midwife tomorrow and get things into action.
How is everyone else doing?

Hey guys,
Interesting reading all of your stories , I do find comfort knowing how comman miscarriages are and you can have successful pregnancies after one!
I had a MMC in March - 11 week scan and was just a 5 week measuring sac there , miscarried naturally 2 weeks later.
Next month I took a test and am pregnant again ! I have an early 9 week scan booked tomorrow and am soooo nervous for it. If the same happens as last time with there just being an empty sac there I think I'll just break down.
I wish all of you luck with your pregnancies xxxx

Hi Ladies,
I had a scan at 6w1d, and it showed baby measuring perfectly and had a good heartbeat. I got referred to the Perinatal department of my local maternity hospital, who look after women who have had recurrent miscarriages, or late term loss and other complications. They did another quick scan at 6w5d, and baby was still looking good.
I see them every fortnight and they'll do a quick scan at each appointment. My next one is in 3 days, on Thursday, and I will be 8w4d by that point. I am still nervous as anything and can't help expecting the worse.. After 3 losses, it's just so hard to believe this one will be successful.
Mayacat - very sorry to see you've had another loss
. I really hope that you can get some answers and your next pregnancy will be healthy and successful! Sending warm hugs your way!
Jaxntango - Good looking scans! Definately looks like you have a healthy baby growing there!
Hope everyone else is going alright!

Hello all. I am very cautiously pregnant (4 weeks 4 days) after 3 miscarriages and one chemical. All my miscarriages were 8-10 weeks so I just need to get to week 11 and have a good scan. Easier said than done.
I got my bfp early (5 days before period was due) and have had 2-3 on a digital on the day of my missed period. Have not had a 3+ yet.
I feel a bit sick but even that means nothing because with miscarriage 1 and 3 I had reasonably bad morning sickness up until 8/10 weeks respectively just to have an MMC confirmed a couple of days later.
Fingers crossed for all of us.
KatBar, how are you doing?
