Hi all!

I had a scan last week which showed no hb at 5+4 but today I went for repeat and found hb at 6+4 it's a viable pregnancy

 

[floridamomma]

Dipping my toes in to the PARL world tentatively again ladies. Not sure how to feel about this because I ovulated on the side I get BOs from and my lines just showed up this morning at 14dpo (my usual is 11/12dpo so not outrageously late but not exactly thrilling either). Not freaking out yet but I'm expecting my usual first tri bleeding to start within the week and I know that'll likely cue my anxiety.

Good luck dairy. I have everything crossed for you!

 

[Tui]

Congratulations Dairy!

Thinking of you Florida, hope all turns out ok. Please keep us posted as you can

Hope all is okay Florida.

As for me I had a scare at the weekend with a small bleed after we bd. My local antenatal was amazing and had me in right away. Everything was great luckily and no bleed in site. Have to fight DH off it'll be a cold winter for him

Well that was a quick dip into the PARL pool...

My tests are either bfn or vv faint this morning.
I'm seeing increasing amounts of pinkish/brown discharge and period cramping has started.
This is loss #11 and my first known chemical.
Think I'm going to buy out the dark chocolate section at the grocery store this morning and curl up in bed with a good book and my kiddos.

 

[ReadynWaiting]

So sorry dairy!

 

[youngmamttc]

I'm so Sorry dairy

 

[Tui]

Big hugs dairy

Quick update as I'm on magnesium and it's doing a number on me. I went to the dr for my gtt, rhogam, growth scan, and appt. bp was high twice (150/100). Then protein if 2+ was found in my urine. I was sent straight to l&d triage for further work up. Liver and kidney levels all look good but protein still in urine so I was admitted. Started on labatelol (beta blocker) to lower bp. It's around 127-137/72-84. A whole lot better. Was given steroids to help develop baby's lung. Thought I was going home today. Given second steroid today and magnesium as a preventative measure to help if baby is early will lower chance of cerebral palsy. The mag is really taking a toll on me. Headaches, vision changes, nausea, exhaustion, the works. For now I'm here until tomorrow. I'm now under the care if high risk ob but they are all residents and it's someone new every 2 hours. The mfm and perinatologist are giving me no guarantees. They said headaches and vision changes plus protein means preeclampsia could be getting getting worse even though liver and kidney are ok. Sort of in limbo. Mag should be finished in 5-6 hours so just keep us in thoughts and prayers.
