So good news is bub is measuring right on track. Bad news is there are pockets of blood in the uterus. Dr has ordered moderate bed rest for a week and a follow up ultrasound next Wednesday. I didn't get to see or a picture but hopefully next week. Huge sigh of relief.
Dairy still waiting on an update.

My sickness disappeared at midday and I've been wobbly ever since

I totally know how you're feeling hunny. I bet you'll be sick as a dog in no time at all x

 

[girlinyork]

Big hugs for you sweetv, take it easy x

I feel sick again. Should've enjoyed the respite while I had it

 

[Embo78]

I know what to do if my sickness goes away - just go into a subway. Bleurrgggghhh. The smells oh my

 

[kwynia]

There are so few good smells to me right now, everything smells horrible even if it's normally a good smell, it's now just too strong. Last night we had some ice cream after dinner and the chocolate smelled so good i just kept my nose over the container and breathed it in for about a minute and almost cried. My DH was giving me funny looks and I told him how rare a good smell is and just leave me alone and let me savor it.

So update time! Ultrasound gave me a shocker. I was totally expecting to hear 'yep, miscarriage' but there was baby complete with a hb of 128! Measuring a few days behind what I guesstimated but I was just guesstimating and my older kids both measured small so I'm not worried one bit. And the extra shocker was there's a second sac. It's fluid filled and there's a wee bitty blob on one end but since the sac appears empty otherwise and it's about half the size of baby's sac, the dr feels it's either a nonviable twin and I'm trying to miscarry it (hence the clots and the evening bleeds) or it's a hematoma. Either way, the bleeding is explainable and I'm okay with that. My odds of miscarriage just dropped drastically as I've only miscarried once while on my meds after seeing a hb. As for the twin/hematoma thing, I'm waiting to see what the radiologist decides it is before I start figuring out how I feel about it. Another ultrasound in 3 weeks to see how things are progressing and we'll go from there.

But MAJOR sighs of relief over here...

And Embo-you can add me to the front page now. EDD is now November 15. Will add my ticker back asap. Yay!

[klsltsp]

OMG dairy that's amazing

my EDD is Nov 15 too!!

SweetV that's amazing news too. yipee!!!

I have major aversions to most foods right now.... to pretty much everything.

my OH keeps telling me to eat... sigh... I would if I could.. and then I get into that vicious circle of I'm too sick to eat then more sick because I'm hungry and still don't want to eat... aahhh

 

[girlinyork]

So happy for you dairy my mum thought she was m/c but it was a twin sac/blighted ovum and my brother was born perfectly healthy

 

[Embo78]

Great news Jill. Abi (my 17 year old) should've been a twin too. Such mixed feelings when you find out

 

[dairymomma]

Oddly, I don't feel sad about it if it is a twin. I think it's more that I'm just SO relieved that there's a bub with a hb in there that it's blotting out everything else.

 

[Love4you]

I'm so happy for you girls! Congrats on your beautiful ultrasounds. Hoping for nothing but good news from hear on out.
My ultrasound is booked for April 8th. No early scan for me though I tried to really hard. 2 more weeks of torture.
But they did confirm my EDD is nov 15th. That's crazy that we all have the same due date.

 

[klsltsp]

Love4you my next scan is April 8 too!! and my EDD is Nov 15!!! hahahaha we can wait together! I have already had 1 scan this week with heart beating nicely

 

[kwynia]

what amazing news dairy, so happy for you!

 

[dairymomma]

Oh my. Lots of us with Nov. 15 due dates...Must have been some pretty sticky global baby dust in the air around mid-Feb.

And I got my ticker back! Kinda sucks that I'm back a few days but I was expecting it since my dates were guesstimated dates anyway.

 

[SweetV]

Dairy that is so relieving! Ticker is back and everything!! I am so happy that today just worked out perfectly.

afm - my boss is not impressed that I have been taken off work for 2 weeks. He made me call the dr back while he was there to see if they would put me on modified duties for a week. I ended up at work almost all day as the dr never called me back. I'm off tomorrow and Saturday. I am supposed to work 12 hours on Sunday but I've already found somebody to cover off some of my shift. I will see how I'm feeling but I'm not doing 12 hours. It's about time I looked after myself and more importantly my little parasitic blob lol.

 

[klsltsp]

yeah dairy I was put back 4 days myself... feels like I have been 6 weeks FOREVER! hahaha I wasn't tracking my cycle so I wasn't positive when my last cycle started and I am pretty sure I ovulated late... so it makes sense..

 

[Love4you]

Sweet V, where do you live? You can get FMLA papers signed by your doctor and then your boss can't complain about anything.

And I think everybody has had a scan but me. Nothing concerning is going on but I'm so afraid they're not going to see anything in there.

 

[Embo78]

I haven't had a scan yet. Mine is a week on Wednesday. I'll be 8+2. Still not panicking. Just a strange sense of calm! Nothing like how I was in my last four pregnancies
