*October Bumpkins*2014* 43 Babies Born!

[rbourre]

I'm feeling a bit sick because I'm hungry but I can't find anything to eat that sounds good. My husband is driving home on his lunch to bring me a pita. I just have to wait about an hour. I have to get some groceries tonight.

Taquito-- So sorry for your loss.

 

[Yo_Yo]

First off, I want to apologize for lurking on our site the past few weeks. Was trying to stay offline and not cause myself undue worry.... but now I need my fellow October Mommies to help me....

Where do I start?? So, I should be 8weeks today. Had to go in for an early u/s at 5 weeks 3 days from light pink and brown spotting. Turned out at that time all we saw was a gestational sac and a tiny little yolk sac -- measured out perfectly to where I should be at that time -- 5 weeks 3 days. Dr. said that they wanted me to come back in 2 weeks to check progress -- that was on Friday 3/14. At that visit I would have been 7 weeks and 4 days. Did the u/s and saw the baby!! I was so super excited and couldn't believe how much changed in 2 weeks time. The bad thing was though that the baby was measuring behind at only 6 weeks 2 days. And they were unable to find a heartbeat. I just don't know what to think now. I am high risk too as in between my u/s I had to go back in for a blood pressure check and am now on prescription meds for my high blood pressure. I did read that sometimes having high BP can slow the growth of the baby too I am just really confused and feel really helpless right now. Not sure what to do or what to think. Have my follow up u/s tomorrow morning and as much as I want to go to see everything is ok, I don't want to go. Please anyone have a similar story or issue? How did things turn out? I know that everyone is different, just looking for someone to share in what I am feeling. thanks in advance for responding.

UPDATE:

So the news was not good . Had the u/s yesterday and the baby has actually gotten smaller in size than it was on Friday. Dr. said that my body has already started the process of miscarriage and that it was just a matter of time now. She said to decide if I wanted to do it naturally or if I wanted a d&c...... ugh. What a day. Thank you everyone for the good wishes and prayers. Heaven just has another little angel now. Love you my little blueberry!!!

I am so sorry to hear this lovely
Sending you hugs. X

Here's baby at 9+6. Measuring right on at 9+6. Baby was super active and wiggling all over the place. Hr was 183! It was so cool watching baby squirm! My next appointment is the 28th. Will see my OB and hopefully get to hear the heartbeat again. The tech did mention this pregnancy I have an inverted uterus and it looks like I'll have an anterior placenta too...so I'm really hoping I get to hear it by Doppler in 2 weeks!

 

[_Anya_]

I'm leaving... Had a blighted ovum (first diagnosed at 7+1 weeks), didn't see the baby though the gestational sack was already 22mm. And no heartbeat, no yolk sac. Checked in 3 different clinics. All doctors said that I had to have a D&C. The operation went well, I was 8 weeks at that point. So sad. That was my first pregnancy, I was so happy... Now I'm devastated. Back to planning in 5 or more cycles...

taquito0523, sorry for your loss. Let's hope that our babies are in heaven now.

Very cute redhead. I don't know much about an inverted uterus but I think that subject was brought up before so I'm sure there are others here with the same situation.

Taquito and Anya- I am terribly sorry for your losses. We are a great support system here if you need someone to talk to. Lots of hugs during this awful time and we look forward to both of you rejoining us in the 1st tri.

[cntrygrl]

Anya-- So sorry for your loss.

Kazine-- Was your current baby a twin? I was just looking at your tickers.

Nope I just got pregnant again immediately ! Hence why my LMP is the day I started bleeding from my MC.

Is inverted uterus the same as tilted uterus/retroverted uterus? If so, I have one of these, and it doesn't really mean anything!
Love the way baby looks like its waving with both hands for the scan! Cute!
