[LisK]

Ugh I am spotting. Crap.

 

[mummy2o]

As long as its only a little bit of spotting LisK. I remember spotting around the 6w mark with DS and I was terrified I was going to m/c, he ended up ok. Remain positive.

Here's me yesterday at 6 weeks. Bloat has gone down (maybe because I'm not eating a lot because I'm sooo nauseous)...

Just found out my HCG levels. I'm miscarrying

Sorry to hear that, but I agree with the others, maybe try not to get too upset until you're sure! And what you said about them not mentioning the sac... When I had my early scan cause I was bleeding last time they didn't say anything to me at all, nothing!!! Until I saw someone afterwards that went through the sonographer's notes with us and they mentioned that there was a sac, but that was all.... My levels were low though, I think they were only about 300 at 7weeks and then 2 days later they were about 90 I think... it went down pretty quickly! Ofcourse you're gonna be upset, but I'd try to keep a little bit of faith until you get your 2nd HCG levels back!

Joined too soon! Woke up bleeding. Gl to everyone! I hope you see your bean's heart beats!

Not necessarily a bad sign, but it is very scary!!! Hope everything is ok!!

Ugh I am spotting. Crap.

And same for you, spotting is pretty common.... Hopefully everything is ok!!!

Me too but I think it's because I ate a pretty big lunch and I was outside...very hot today here. Lying down in the airco made me feel better!

Ella, I just found this online.... A girl that had a mc before and she said this:
Now I am pregnant again and have been super nervous about another mc. I got my hcg levels checked and they weren't doubling, I Thought for sure the same thing was happening. I went in for an ultrasound a few days later and saw the heartbeat. That was 6 weeks ago and everything is still looking good. I guess what I've learned is that the body does it's own thing and doesn't always follow the rules that we think it should.

Hope that helps to give you some hope!!

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Yea but now my mouth is watering for dinner tonight! Shrimp tacos with fresh homemade mango salsa, mexican rice and jalepeno lime corn om the cob......mmmmmmmmm....food...

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Also ella! For my case, they almost did a d&c on me when prego with ella because they were so sure i was miscarrying...i told them i wasnt doing it until i got another scan...4 days later i did and she was there beating away! My 6 month old baby girl wouldnt have been here if i didnt speak up and be an advocate for myself!

My friend had the same thing...she got told she was having a miscarriage (think she was bleeding) and they wanted her to schedule a d&c and she said she'd rather have it happen naturally, she now has a 2yr old little girl because she didn't get the d&c!!

 

[LisK]

Spotting seems to have stopped. Ugh so stressful. I will keep you guys posted.

 

[DecemberWait]

it's disturbing how often lab error and human error occur with such a delicate thing as pregnancy. I really wish everyone here the best and I hope that things start looking up for those ladies who are really worried about their beans First tri is so hard!!!


I am dead tired and want to nap so bad but I have to read some more out of my textbook tonight. If I can stay awake...

 

[wavescrash]

I came home from work and promptly passed out. Luckily both my girls were already napping so we all got about 2 hours in. I had to wake up for work at 4am and couldn't fall asleep until after midnight so I was dragging all day.

A bit of an update on the whole "switching OB" thing. I posted the same thing in a local mommy group I'm in on FB asking for opinions because they can recommend good local doctors and many have even gone to the same OB as me. One lady messaged me saying she recommends finding a new doctor because her 3 year old was delivered by my OB and was injured during the childbirth and said her daughter won't ever be normal. She's actually suing my OB so she couldn't say too much about what happened. She also said a friend of hers saw the same lady and the OB prescribed her some medication that had she taken it, would have reacted with a heart medication she took and killed her. Another friend of hers went to my OB with a breast lump and the doctor shrugged it off insisting it was nothing but the friend insisted on a mammogram, got one & turned out she had very aggressive breast cancer but our OB wanted to just ignore it. So yeah, DEFINITELY switching. I have 3 doctors to call tomorrow and I'm hoping one will get me in soon just to check my hcg levels and run my progesterone again since my current OB's office doesn't seem to have the results yet.

I've been so worried about my lack of symptoms (though I'm dead tired all the time and my boobs have been really sore today and the bloat is UNREAL) but I got more FRERs today and the test line is finally as dark, if not darker than the control line

 

[Eltjuh]

Me and my little boy at Legoland Just wanted to share!!

It's bedtime for me, cause it's been a long day!!

Hopefully everyone is ok and you all have a nice day/good night (depending on where you are!)

 

[J_Lynn]

Is there any pregnant-safe headache medicine?

 

[mummy2o]

wavescrash: I wouldn't worry to much about lack of symptoms. Every pregnancy is different. My son was a very easy pregnancy and was plain sailing, no morning sickness, no sore boobs, no nothing. This one has started early with everything. Think I'm making up for lack from them last time.

 

[donnarobinson]

Not sure where ur from? But we can only take paractomol. X
