PAL - February 2013 rainbow babies

[Mrskg]

I took them all the way through my last pregnancy so think I'll be fine taking them this time x what meds did he give you! I can't remember what I was on last time xx

With my first loss last July I had spotting at 11+6 they took me at epu for a scan I lay on table an there was a screen on wall in front of me I thought it was strange that it was on an when I seen a black hole I knew straight away it was over took her about 5 mins to tell me x I can remember thinking why would they let me see the screen there could have been anything there i can remember saying to hubby what if there was a baby with 2 heads surely they should check first but since then they've always asked if I want it on an I've always said yes i think it was maybe a good thing have 5 mins to process before they say anything x

Congrats NT so please for you hun.

I have had OH with me and I have gone through it alone. I must admit I like to go through things alone then I can be selfish and not worry about how another person is feeling. If I allow someone else with me I tend to focus on them and not myself...if you know what I mean. Same with the actual miscarriages as all have been medically managed. I would prefer to go through it alone but must admit I really loved the support in the end.

Congratulations NT - you must be so happy just now

All you lucky ladies hearing things on your dopplers! I used a doppler once during my pregnancy with my son and I couldn't hear his heartbeat and it freaked me out so much that my dh banned me from using it again.

I'm not even sure where it is any longer! Don't think I could use one though, freaked out too much at the moment without giving myself anything else to worry about. But I'm really glad that they work for you ladies

Good news on everyone's scans too. I've finally had my initial appt with my doctor so now I need to wait for my booking appointment with the midwife and I've asked about the possibility of an early scan. The doctor couldn't say if I will get one but hopefully he will mention it when he makes the referral to the midwives.

I don't really have any strong symptoms at the moment - a bit of nausea, little bit of indigestion, little bit tired. Hoping that they kick in soon so that I can feel pregnant properly

Metoclopramide 10mg to take 3 times a day have you used those? I can totally see the logic in that now, I know waiting for her to say anything at my scan was horrible, I was very fortunate with my previous loss to not see a thing EPU wouldn't even entertain seeing me till 6 weeks, they said anything before that was pointless, so I didnt get a scan, I did get offered one after the MC to see that all was OK, but I was so messed up I declined to go. xx

It was 5 years ago I took them really can't remenpmber wonder if they will be able to look back? about not going to scan can totally understand but I had to have so many with my mmc as it took 3 weeks an 2 failed med managements to pass x wasnt too bad as sac was empty x never got any with my chemicals for same reason epu won't scan me before 6 weeks x an one was harder because I saw baby with hb then a week later saw no hb even though I knew there was a prob with sac nothing can prepare for that xxx

Thanks ladies ive decided its only fair that i let my partner come in i cant just think of myself and whatever happens happens but least il know that i dudnt deprive him from seeing our hopefully very healthy little bean.

 

[flutterbaby]

hi ladies how are you all this evening i just stroked our cat and my eyes are swollen i know i shouldn't but i've had her years and cant part with her it only started in the last 18 months but im defo allergic to her but i love her

got scan in 2 days i keep telling myself im not pregnant that way in wont hurt as much when things go wrong convincing myself i have no symptoms how am i

 

[PerpetualMama]

Sorry had to wait nearly an hour Baby bean perfect size perfect place and good heartbeat. X

Yay! so happy for you!!

I would love to get a doppler! How early have you found a hb with it? But then again I might freak myself out, or else spend every waking moment listening and get absolutely nothing done


I had a dream that we had a big healthy boy, and he was beautiful and we named him Anthony Joseph (NOT going to happen)...then I turned around and gave him to my friend who is looking to adopt. Then I looked at her and said, hey wait! I don't want to give you my baby, I want my baby! (I know this was spurred on because my SIL actually told my brother last week that I should give my baby to my friend. And I had dinner with said friend and 5 others Saturday but couldn't tell them I was pg because I felt guilty that I was and Diane is still waiting for a baby). Good part of the dream still with me this afternoon- big healthy baby

Good luck on your scan I'll get to book mine in 9 days! Take a breath and find hope. It probably wouldn't hurt less because you tell yourself it's going to be bad. I am terrified to go to my scan for fear that there won't be a baby...but I won't let myself think that way for long. I think losing my baby was the worst thing ever and made me so miserable, why would I want to make myself miserable for any more time than I already have been? If sonething is wrong we will have plenty of time to be miserable! So chin up! Smile and look forward to seeing your little one Praying your scan goes just divine!

Hope: Good luck on your scan Friday. I will be thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers too Any change in symptoms?

Perpetualmama thank you . I was worried about loss of symptoms the other day and was freeking out on here about it but next day i woke up with watery mouth and was just heaving bcoz there was nothing to bring up sorry tmi. The pulling pains/twinges have come back yey and the smell of food being cooked makes me feel yuk so symptoms defo do come and go. And i started needing to pee in middle of night again. My boobs arent as sore today but are still bigger so im not going to stress about it. Feel quite relaxed at the moment probably wont last long lol
Your dream sounds great ( the bit about the big healthy baby boy) i love happy dreams like that i also had a dream i had a baby boy even tho ive been thinking a girl, i wonder where the name anthony joseph came from
