Ok Jill. I'll take you off the front page until you say otherwise

 

[3chords]

I woke up to spotting/brown discharge this morning so of course I have a horrible sense of dread. Clinic wants me to come in at noon for an ultrasound so I will have an answer one way or another. Just ugh.

 

[girlinyork]

Oh no, hope it's benign x

 

[Embo78]

So sorry 3chords. I'm so glad you're being scanned so quickly.

I went over with my DD by 4 days, so it's not impossible i could have a dec baby! Ack, crazy to think about Of course DS showed up right on time, so who knows. I had borderline GD with both pregnancies, so they won't let me go very far past my due date, assuming I have it this time too.

 

[kwynia]

sorry 3chords, hoping it's nothing

 

[dairymomma]

3chords-So sorry to hear that. I'm in the same boat only my dr won't scan me until Thursday. FX it's just a scare and your scan shows good news.

Kwynia-I'm in the US. And (if this isn't a m/c), since I tend to go 2-3 weeks early, I may have a Halloween baby instead of a November baby.

Em-thanks. I really want to be on that list but I can't shake the feeling that something isn't right. Hoping I'm wrong and Thursday just rushes up quick.

hey ladies

3chords good luck at your scan! nice that they were able to get you in so quickly.

dairy things are looking positive.

Em how are you feeling about your scan?

kwynia you're not alone, I'm on eastern time too I'm in Canada.

AFM I had a scan today, looked good, baby is in the right place! phew!! that was a big deal for us. I was measured at 6+2 which confirms that I ovulated late this month.. since we weren't trying and I thought we were "safe" lol. So my EDD is now Nov 15. Doc was happy not to see me again until 10 weeks... asked if I would like an u/s before then to ease my mind, I said yes please So I have one booked for 2 weeks from now, when I'll be 8+3. So for now all looks good... not out of the woods just yet but this is further than 2 of my 3 losses, so it's a start!

Hi again ladies. Sorry to hear a few of you have had bleeding. These rainbow babies are going to turn our hair grey!
I still haven't even seen my OB yet. I was supposed to have my first appt yesterday but the receptionist screwed up the dates and booked me on Wednesday by mistake. I work double shifts on Wed and Sun so it's rescheduled for Thurs. So I get to work 17 hours then sleep for 4 hours to make this appt.
I actually had tears just thinking about it.
But I need to go so I can beg for an ultrasound next week. I had pink spotting (it's stopped) and still haven't been seen.
My OB will scan me at 8 weeks but that's forever esp since I lost the last one at 7 weeks. Ugh.
I'll be thinking of you all and praying all the scans are good news.

Anyone else put their other half on a sex ban? I'm always terrified of having sex not realising I've had a mmc. But I'm starting to miss it

 

[kwynia]

Hello EST's :wave:

Anyone else put their other half on a sex ban? I'm always terrified of having sex not realising I've had a mmc. But I'm starting to miss it

My poor DH is really struggling, all of our TTC over the past year has really upped his sex drive, but I'm too nervous. plus my cervix still feels low, it's about middle position, but closed up tight. I don't want to bump it I would really like to get some though

 

[Embo78]

I'm not allowed any as soon as I told the Epu nurse I was spotting she said no more sex. The last time we bd was the night before ov and im gagging for it

 

[SweetV]

I'm in Canada so about behind too! I'm hoping I don't go early as I have a history of preterm labour. Stay put and healthy until November LO.
Dairy I played that game all weekend. Do not call and ask for a scan on Monday, do not call and ask for a scan on Monday repeat.

The progesterone makes me feel very pregnant as well. For the first time when I picked it up it said "do not take with food. Wait 2 hours after eatting before taking this medication". That warning was never on there before?!

Im also in the US and tend to go early by 2-3 weeks, so I might have an October baby as well. the Drs insist my 2nd was 4 weeks early which now has me labeled by my current ob even though I told her that I really don't they had the dates right, from day one I knew they were wron but we know Drs are all knowing right she as never in the nice and was 6lbs 4oz which might sound little but my other daughter was 6lbs 12 oz so not a huge difference, I'm very short so I think I just have smaller babies

We did it twice that first week after I found out and haven't done it since due to the spotting. (I put myself on pelvic rest as soon as I see a color that's not white, clear, or yellow.) Not really missing it all that much as I'm too worried about what's going on but we're pretty much a 'once a week' couple so I've missed what? Two times? DH seems to be surviving and we've had to wait 6-8 weeks due to spotting during the first tri for both of my girls so it's nothing out of the ordinary for me.

Oh and on the time zone thing I forgot to add I'm in the Minnesota so I'm CST but that puts me only an hour behind the East Coast ladies. I grew up in EST so does that count?

Cross posted with a few ladies here...JLW-I ran into the same thing with my two older kids. According to the dr, they both came 3 weeks early but according my lmp, they were only 2 weeks early. In fact, if you go by my lmp and not ultrasound EDDs for all my kids, they were all born at 38+1 but my hospital chart says 37+1, 37+3, and 38+1.

 

[jlw617]

Oh and on the sex part lol, yes I told dh no sex until after 1st trimester, I know it's completely safe but I'm just so scared of losing this one that I would rather just play it safe, though I've been helping him in other ways I just can't leave him completely high and dry, he's been so supportive and I feel bad about the ban but he's made light of it and seems to be doing ok haha

 

[Ladybirdgb]

Yep my mans also on a ban lol

 

[3chords]

Thanks guys for being so kind.

All well at our scan, better than well actually. Baby measuring a day ahead at 7w6d and with heart beat of 171. No reason seen for the bleed (no bleeds or clots in uterus), so the doctor thinks given the very small volume and colour that it was cervical irritation from the suppositories which I take 3x per day. Told us to take it easy and no intercourse until end of first tri, which is fine.

Next scan in 2 weeks.

 

[Embo78]

Woooooo hoooooooo!! Excellent news 3chords. You can breathe a little easier now
