I am 7 weeks and 4 days today. I miscarried in the spring at about this time. I had my first ultrasound last week and baby's HR was 127 at 6 weeks 5 days. My due date is estimated as March 26.

Last m/c I saw a heart beat at 6 weeks and 3 days winch was low (90ish) and then there was no heart beat at the scan the following week, I feel like my symptoms have diminished this week which makes me very scared. I have another scan booked for next Friday just to ease my mind.

Has anyone else had diminishing symptoms but had everything be okay?

I'm just hanging out. I have good days and bad. I am findin I am having more energy lately which is nice. Nine weeks tomorrow so that is exciting.

I know it is worrisome Stevie. I hope you get your rainbow this time.

I've just been taking things day by day. I'm still really sick which is not fun, I'm hoping that settles down soon. I have another scan in 13 days so I'm counting down until we get to see Skittlebug again just praying that things are still going well even though there's no evidence that anything would be wrong.

Hello Steve. Congrats on your pregnancy and I'm so glad you got to see a nice healthy heartbeat at your scan. I have read that symptoms do generally calm down at about 8 weeks - something to do with the placenta?! It's so hard not to worry though I totally agree! You are in the right place though - the ladies on here are so supportive and we each have our own stories and are Hopi for our rainbows.

Allforthegirl agreed I seem to have a little more energy lately. I find the mornings I can actually get things done and I don't tend to tire until 4pm! It's so nice as prior to this I was exhausted to the point I couldn't get out of bed in the morning.

Hopeful how exciting about your scan! How far along will you be then?

I just got my 12 week scan through for the 3rd September. Definitely feeling a mixture of emotions about it. On one hand I'm excited to see baby again and to push forward into the 2nd tri however I'm terrified of the nt test they do. This is what showed up the serious health issues with our first angel, I'm so scared it will happen again!!

 

[allforthegirl]

Hanrh somewhere around 8 the placenta starts growing more. Though not until 12 weeks is when it takes over and no longer need the corpus lutem to survive.

Stevie - I hear from a lot of women that their symptoms come and go. I know it's stressful though. I know a couple people who had mc's at the height of their symptoms, so don't try to read into them too much. That's a nice heart rate - congratulations!

Hopeful - I'm looking forward to your scan! I hope you start feeling better.

Hanhr - my nuchal scan is Aug 24 and I'm having a little anxiety over it too. My last pregnancy didn't even make it this far, so I'm happy with how it's going. But I think I'm going to be so tense waiting for this scan.

 

[.hopeful.one.]

Hanrh, I'll be 12w1d. It's also my nt test and I'm super nervous about it but hoping it goes well. The 12 week scan is where we found that our last baby had stopped growing weeks earlier so definitely have some anxiety.

Of course, I was offered a scan yesterday but it was impossible for me to get there (I live in a rural area only accessible by ferry) and now they are completely booked up until god knows when. So disappointing.

How far along are you? Sorry I am new to this forum and not familiar with everyone who is posting...

 

[Jessica28]

Stevie, I will be 9 weeks on satuurday.

 

[STEVIE410]

Jessica28 hopefully you can get in soon to ease your mind. I am a week behind you, 8 weeks Saturday. I have had one u/s already and have another next Friday ( I had to push for it). I am a nervous wreck as I think my symptoms are fading. Although thinking back to last week, my symptoms seemed terrible on days when I was very tired and hadn't had much sleep. I have been sleeping better lately and hoping that is why I am feeling okay.

 

[Nikki1979]

Stevie - My symptoms eased off around 7wk 3days and i was a nervous wreck. I had bad ms before that. I had a scan at 10 wk 4 days and baby measured one day behind with a hb of 171bpm. I think our bodies just get used to the hormones after a while.

 

[hanrh]

Hopeful and Annie - it is so hard trying to stay positive for the 12 weeks scan when it's been bad news previously isn't it! I was so excited after ,y 8 week scan and now I'm slowly turning into a nervous wreck again!

Jess that is such a shame about not being able to make it to your scan. I really hope you get one soon. Maybe a cancellation?

Stevie - I hope your Us GPs well on Friday. I'm sure all will be good. My symptoms are definitely not as bad as they were now, I agree with Nikki - I think our bodies are getting used to all the hormones!

10 weeks today for me! (Based on my due date - my ticker is wrong!)

 

[STEVIE410]

Thanks for the reassurance everyone. I felt nauseous this morning which is a good sign I guess. I will know more in a week...fingers crossed!

 

[Jessica28]

I am booked for a scan on Tuesday!
