PAL after Recurrent Losses - come join us!

[Mrs Reineke]

Hello ladies,

I just got caught up on everything...

floridamomma, your numbers look great!!

DSemcho, I'm sorry your mom decided to post that without your permission. I would be irritated too. You're getting closer to knowing your babies gender for sure!!! Yay!!!

Hope, love seeing your BFP in your signature!!

loeylo, my symptoms come and go as well. It's totally normal. With both of my mcs I lost my symptoms completely before I started to spot. I'm so glad you are getting the help you deserve. I'm praying for you that all is well and baby is where it's supposed to be.

Tasha, I'm so beyond excited that your appointment/scan went so well. I'm sorry you have pp, but it's easily dealt with. Yay!!

AFM: I've got my next scan on Thursday. I'll be 11 weeks 3 days. I'm nervous and praying everything will look great and baby will be measuring on time. If all looks great, we'll probably officially announce it at that point, but we'll see. Praying for a great appointment.

Hope, no results. I'm not sure if they'll bother phoning tomorrow since appointment is Thursday morning. I thought they said someone would ring in 2-3 days but it's a bit of a blur so maybe I was wrong! Will know soon either way & will be sure to update.

Team yellow takes more willpower than I have we'll hopefully find out gender on Thursday too!

Hope your scan goes well Mrs R

 

[loeylo]

Thanks for your views ladies. Boob pain has now almost completely gone (even when I pinch them really hard and jump around ...) and I have only had one tiny bought of sickness today. This is in comparison to my boobs being really sore and swollen since about two weeks ago and nausea building for about a week. Hoping I'm wrong but I can't shake this horrible feeling. Parl is so scary!

Lol, you've got amazing willpower Squig, I would have been chasing them results at 9am this morn to stop driving myself nutty over what ifs and maybe's. Your very calm about it all xx

 

[Mrs Reineke]

You do have a lot of willpower and strength Squig!! Thank you on wishing me a good appointment, it means a lot.

loeylo, I know many women who have their symptoms change a ton throughout pregnancy. They would die down and then all of the sudden be back like crazy. Hoping that's all it is. Praying for you.

 

[floridamomma]

Started a actual pregnancy journal at home. It's keeping me calm sorry if I'm not very present. I'm going through my milestones daily for the next 4-5 weeks so I'm a little disconnected. I have another beta Monday so we'll see

I'm not sure that I want to find out at work & I'm not sure who to ring anyway. I feel like this is not a hopeless situation despite appearances (maybe that will change after tomorrow!). I'm doing just about all I can to help & we have an army of people praying for us. My instinct is that the issues aren't chromosomal. So I guess all of that is helping me to cope for now! But I will be glad to find out more tomorrow.

Loeylo, I'm sorry I haven't been in touch since we met up but am delighted to read your news. It's understandable you are having all these worries, I know how terrified you were after your last losses. Are you still at Wishaw Gen, who are you seeing, is Maharaj back? Are you seeing (scottish) Louise and Elaine, they will take good care of you. Let me know if you are having a wobble and want to meet up or chat again, I had to switch phone so I don't think I have your number anymore but if you pm me on here I will save it in my phone. I hope all is going well so far, please don't worry about hogging the thread that is what it is here for. I hope all is ok with you.
Sorry for all the questions xx.

 

[Hope39]

I wouldn't want to find out at work either tbh, iI'm hoping that all this positive thinking will get squiglet through z

I'm back at wishaw now. I was sent to hairmyres but pretty much refused to be treated there, I went there for recurrent miscarriage testing but they only tested clotting which was clear. I was told to phone for a scan at 6 weeks and then again at 7, but instead they wanted to scan me once at 6+5. I was almost refused methotrexate at 5+2 so by 6+5 I would almost definitely be given surgery which I want to avoid.

I'm pretty sure it isn't ectopic (thank goodness!) as it feel very different, but I guess I will know on Monday. I called wishaw (I was speaking to Michelle who has dealt with me before, she is lovely! Dark short hair I think?) who agree to scan me whenever I wanted pretty much. They told me they would speak to "my consultant" which I didn't even know I had - I don't know who this would be. They are so much better than hairmyres!

Meeting up again or having a chat at some point would be good, how are you keeping?

I'm actually feeling pregnant again today. Boob pain is back and I nearly spewed on a pupil about an hour ago!

Squig - hoping your test results come back negative for trisomy, everything crossed for you.

florida - glad the numbers are going up

tasha - glad the scan went well

D - can't believe it's nearly time to find out the gender , time flies

loeylo - I think the symptoms can come and go too. Mine sometimes disappeared before an mmc, but I have also heard of symptoms disappearing and the pregnancy is absolutely fine, try not to worry too much (I know how hard this is).

Have the first scan next week, I'm having a tiny bit of brown spotting (but think it's a sore cervix as it feels like I've sat on a cactus...), still feeling really tired and a bit nauseous. Trying to be positive and have managed to stop panicking.

 

[loeylo]

My symptoms have always disappeared before a loss (my ectopic actually miscarried before I had methotrexate and I lost symptoms the say before pain started) - I haven't had any cramping which is obviously good.

It is crazy that I am taking things that happened with my losses as positive signs - maybe less sore boobs is actually a good thing for me as every time I have had really sore boobs I have miscarried.

When is your scan bluebell and how far along will you be?

 

[blueblue]

loeylo - I see what you mean, it's very easy to watch symptoms like a hawk and worry if you don't get the same ones,even when the previous pregnancies didn't work out. Some people never have symptoms and it's fine, others have them and it doesn't work out. I remember reading about a lady who had 5 losses, and on her 6th pregnancy she lost the symptoms at 6 weeks - she went on to have a healthy baby. It'll be a 6 week scan for me.

Hi Guys-

I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I would like to invite you all to my blog. (Tasha if this is not allowed, please delete)

I have just started and am new to this blog world, but I eventually would like it to be a place where I can share parenting from my perspective, share articles, and post information to expecting moms or new moms.

I invite you all to read it because I start out by sharing my personal journey through RMC and into motherhood, and I know all of you can relate.

*edited by a moderator*

Just want to add- it reads like a story, so you would have to read the posts in chronological order for it to make sense

 

[Tasha]

Sorry newly, it's not allowed well not posts specifically for your blog, however you can link to it in your signature. Sorry.

 

[floridamomma]

Glad to see so much good news.
Loeylo the first few weeks of parl is so touch and go. Baby is too small to really see or do anything. I'm glad you have a dr who understands and is helping
Squig you and the lo are still in my prayers

 

[newlywedtzh]

Okay Thanks Tasha I will do that!

 

[Hope39]

Squig i be thinking of you tomorrow morning hun. I have everything crossed for you, i hope that you have rested enough and the clexane has done its job and little squiglet has grown some

xx

 

[hopeful23456]

Tash- love how things r going so good and time seems to be flying for ya seems like not long ago we saw your poas

 

[DSemcho]

I know blue lol. I was asking DH to get a 3D/4D done next weekend at 17 weeks, but when I asked him this morning he flipped on me and made me cry. He doesn't understand that I don't want to wait until 2 weeks before we move. My co-workers want to do a baby shower soon and I don't want all gender neutral stuff =/ And I certainly don't want a circus theme
