Pregnancy after our preemies support thread!

[AP]

I'm good, rather a bit more settled about it all. I should have prepared myself for that possibility but for some reason I didn't, I dunno why It's more a wake up call than anything else, I'd be foolish to believe im gonna go full term for sure!

I'm having another cervix scan for 24 weeks so maybe thats a silver lining for the worry!

When I got my bloods done at 16 weeks pregnant for spina bifida as they can't test for downs with twins I didn't even think about the results being bad. It was such a shock when they rang a week later saying my afp was high and could I go for a scan the next day. It was only when I started googling I learned how many of these results were false!

Positive thoughts - you will be pregnant for at least another 16 weeks and complaining you can't see your feet!

Don't give up hope SB, it does happen!!

I fully expected another preemie, and even when they put Amber on my chest, I looked down at this little chunky thing and thought 'okay so where is my little scrawny baby?' It still didn't register even then!!

Stay positive!!

From experience, it is crap having a prem no matter what but second time around was easier than first. You know what to expect and you have a success story living with you. I hope it doesn't come to that for anyone here but i'm telling you, if it does it's not the end of the world. I've had 3 prems 27, 31 and 34 weeks and they survived and i survived and all is right with the world. We prem mums are tough.

Welcome 2ndtimer, I've listed you on the first page Hope you're doing ok?

Anyone heard from hopefully2? Shes overdueeeeeee!!!!!! Now theres a word!!!!

I have found out I will be scanned next thursday to measure cervix again, and then I have our own 4D scan on Friday

I feel huge now, I really do

The midwifes taken bloods, albeit a bit early, to see if I need to do the glucose test, because my sugars are high.

The consultant hasnt been in touch for my monthly swabs, which concerns me a bit, because I dont want to be left over xmas and new year.
