Awwwww. Beautiful pic hunny

Yay for the great scan!
And for being able to find bubs with the doppler. I watched a few video's on youtube to help me with it for the first few tries. I got babes this morning without having to even move the probe, just a good guess on where to start. It was just for a few seconds but a great start to my morning.

So happy to see such good scan news and I'm liking how many ladies are able to find the hb with their dopplers.

Just wanted to pop in with a very quick update. I just got some results back and it looks like bubs hb was slowing on Monday. Even if I got to hear it, being as it had dropped from 128 to the low 90s was NOT a good sign. (Explains why the sonographer didn't tell me what the hb was too...) Bleeding was visible around both sacs so it was a foregone conclusion at that point. All signs are pointing to this being a bad egg that shouldn't have caught and we're just waiting on the test results to prove it. We're also looking more into a diagnosis of hyperfertility. We'll see what the dr says at my appt but I'm starting some things at home to see if it helps-weight loss, adding CoQ10 to my supplements, possibly a progesterone cream.

So it's not sucking any less but at least I'm feeling a bit more closure and like maybe there's an answer this time.

 

[SweetV]

Dairy your diagnosis sounds quite probable and I'm wondering if my losses are somewhat similar. I always get pregnant very easily but have a hard time not miscarrying. I hope you find some closure soon.

I'm so sorry to hear that Dairy. I hope you get some good news in the coming days. =) Fx'd for you!

I just went to the bathroom (had a bm, sorry TMI) and had a bit of red spotting. I had it at 6 weeks, & had to have a rhogam shot because I'm RH-. I'm trying not to freak out, because it I have no cramping, and they didn't find anything wrong when I had went to the ER.

I think it's just from intercourse. I had it about 4 days ago, and when I had the spotting at 6 weeks, I had intercourse about 4 days before that as well. I guess my body is just slow.

 

[SweetV]

nickielg - Fx it's nothing. You can spot I believe from straining from a BM as well due to the extra blood flow down there but definitely could be from intercourse as well.

 

[EllaC]

Hi guys, can I join? I am due November 20, I have a 4 year old son and I lost a baby boy last year at 21 weeks. Nice to meet you all x

 

[SweetV]

Hi Ella! I'm so sorry for your loss. I also lost a baby boy last year at 25 weeks so I'm waiting to see what kind of new fun the second trimester holds. Welcome to the November Rainbows

 

[SweetV]

I've just gone to the bathroom to discover I'm bleeding. It wasn't a lot but it was bright red. Only when I wiped. There was nothing on the liner before or after. I have noticed this weekend that my urine was very cloudy. Do you think it could be a uti?
I've checked bubs with the doppler and found it super quick with a strong 180 bpm which has eased my anxiety a little bit.
I'll call the dr. first thing tomorrow to see what I should do. My scan is booked for Wednesday either way.

 

[Embo78]

Hey V. It's very promising that you've heard bubs hb. Have you recently bd? It could be an irritated cervix perhaps? When you've had your scans have they seen any bleed sites?
Phoning your doc is sensible and try to get your feet up as much as possible today

 

[Love4you]

Sweet V, blood is always scary. I actually had bright red bleeding all through my first trimester with my oldest child.
It was breakthrough bleeding and it came around the time AF was due.
Glad you're hearing baby with the Doppler but def call your dr to see if they can move up the ultrasound.
Relax on the couch and let DH spoil you. *hugs*

 

[SweetV]

I am on pelvic rest (poor DH) as a month ago they found 2 subchorionic hematomas (sp?) but at my last scan 2 weeks ago they said one was completely gone and one was almost gone. I think that maybe that was the last of it. I figured they would be long gone by now with the progress 2 weeks ago, but I have been at work on my feet when I shouldn't have been.
Absolutely nothing this morning so I'm breathing a sigh of relief for now.

 

[Love4you]

Glad to hear everything is looking good!!

 

[girlinyork]

I had a scan this morning! Baby is thriving and measuring 8+5. Our affectionately named "Arnold the blob" seems to be thriving

 

[kwynia]

Sorry for the scare sweetv, I'm sure your scan will be reassuring

giy- that's wonderful! I wish I was getting another scan at 8 weeks, I will be 10+4 at my next scan

 

[klsltsp]

Sweet sorry about the scare... lucky that you have the doppler. Beautiful scan keyboard and girlinyork

 

[girlinyork]

SweetV it could be the last haematoma giving you some grief. Hopefully it'll clear up soon but deffo check in with your doctor and take it easy x

 

[SweetV]

Thanks ladies! Feeling much more confident today. I couldn't get baby on doppler for too long this morning but did find it so not stressed.
Feet are up (dishes and laundry can pile up for now). Work has been told I'm not coming until tomorrow.

 

[Ladybirdgb]

You keep them feet up sweet don't you be doing anything

How's everyone else doing?

I had a mad busy weekend it was my daughters birthday party she is 9 on Thursday we had a pool party at the local pool then party back at ours 11 kids 8 adults 7 out of 8 drinking can you guess who was not lol I had an alcohol free beer sooooo not the same and made myself some fruit juice cocktails v nice. Was wiped out the next day tho slept the afternoon away

 

[SweetV]

alcohol free never cuts it. It sounds exhausting! I hope everybody had a great time!

afm - back to work today to start with my new boss. I'm worried to say the least. I'm back at the doctor on Wednesday and going to see if she will begin to think about modified duties for me or if it something I will have to wait to speak to the high risk doctor about. 2 1/2 more weeks until I transfer care. I can't believe we are so close to the second trimester.
