How's everything going ? X

 

[Mrs Reineke]

Not too bad Stacey. Trying to keep busy today because last time I started spotting starting tomorrow morning and mc'd. So I'm trying to relax and pray this time around is different. How are you doing?

I hope so I know how scary pregnancy is after a loss

 

[Stacey_89]

I'm sure all will be fine and before you know it your jumping over to second trimester I found that keeping busy helped me when I was pregnant with my daughter.
Do you have another scan booked any time soon?
I'm doing okay,normal cycle now today I'm cd19 and yesterday I had a very open cervix along with EWCM so that's good to know I'm getting back to normal. I'm also on Angus castus now so hope that helps. I don't plan to get a BFP this month though as yesterday I had my check up smear test as 6 months ago I had severe changes that needed treatment,so hoping my results come back normal this time and I can carry on ttc,if not and I need more treatment I may end up having a stitch on my cervix when I do get a BFP and get to about 14 weeks and regular scans to measure my cervix..another worry to add to the list,argh!

Mrs. R I remember you from a ttc group we were in. I was so sad when you lost yours that time. So happy to see this one is going better. I have had 2 losses as well and now I am 23 weeks. I took aspirin this time and it seems to have helped me! I am still nervous about a mc (I feel like I've been pregnant forever!). I remember those early days and weeks dragging on and all the anxiety. When is your next ultrasound? I really hope this all works out for you and you have a happy healthy baby.

 

[Mrs Reineke]

Well hello Curlymikes! I remember you too!! I'm so excited you're at 23 weeks!! So you literally just started taking baby aspirin and ta da?? I started baby aspirin this time around as well. I'm 6 weeks 1 day today and this day it the farthest I've made it before. I've kept busy to keep my mind off of it as much as possible Stacey. It's really tough. Every time I go potty I have to look at the toilet paper to see if I'm spotting. CelticNiamh, pregnancy after a loss/multiple losses is terrifying. I wasn't too worried when I got pregnant the 2nd time because I thought I'd be good to go, wouldn't happen again and then it did at 6 weeks 1 day where I'm at today. So this 3rd time around is even worse. Trying my best to stay positive. My Aunt said "worrying will not keep the baby in." I never really thought of it that way, but I can worry all I want and it won't change the outcome. Granted I'm a big worry wart and will continue to worry. LOL!!

"Granted I'm a big worry wart and will continue to worry."

I can attest to this.

 

[CelticNiamh]

The worry never stops LOL I would call my self a worry wart as well

 

[Mrs Reineke]

hairftsher, you have first hand knowledge of how ridiculous I am!! Hahahaha!!! Psycho lady here!!!

TTC First and Mrs Reineke... Im gratified to hear that aspirin is helping you both! I too am convinced its a miracle drug.

My due date is March 18th, and so far (despite so many mcs) this pregnancy has been going by very smoothly, if even a trifle boringly!!

I plan on taking the baby aspirin until I go into labor. I know most professionals want you to stop around 36 weeks or so, but aspirin only stays active in your system for about 24 hours. And Ive been having not 'failure to clot' issues during my pregnancy to make me worry that bleeding may be a problem.

because once youre out of 1st tri and dont worry about mc so much, you start to worry about blood clots in the cord or other such things. I know it doesnt sound very positive, but anybody whos been thru pregnancy losses knows what its like to lose the innocence of pregnancy!

 

[Mrs Reineke]

Oh definently swampmaiden. I totally agree with wanting to take it as long as it's safe to do so. I've never had a blood clot myself, but it doesn't mean a clot won't form that could harm my baby. So praying the aspirin is the trick!

 

[TTC First]

I'm with you ladies, not stopping here. I have yet to see if this has worked for me. I went to my 6 week u/s and they said that there was a HB but the doctor said that it was only 92 so he doesn't think that this one will work out for me. I am being positive and going back in a week for another u/s.

I am egger to go back because they said that they saw 2 more gestational sacs (no yolk) in there so they don't know if it was 2 more babies or just fluid.

Oh I hope you see excellent results at next scan it is still early there is every chance it could still be ok

 

[TTC First]

Thanks CelticNiamh, I am thinking positive because this MS is really bad. Every time I had my MMC I lost all my PG symptoms. I have yet to loose any of them.

Yes so did I with my MC my symptoms faded you keep thinking positive

 

[Mrs Reineke]

TTC First, sometimes they can't get a great read on the heartbeat, so don't panic. Also, if it was at 92 that does not mean the pregnancy is doomed. Also, if they saw extra gestational sacs, that's fantastic!!!!!!! I'm praying for you that everything will be fantastic at your next scan. With both of my mc, I lost my symptoms the night before I started spotting. So with you still having all of them that's a wonderful sign. Hang in there and keep us posted.

 

[TTC First]

Thanks Mrs Reineke. I am staying positive on the HB issue, I have my symptoms worse than ever. They said that the 2 extra sacks could be fluid and I am just betting on that, although it would be great to have twins. Kinda upsets me that I didn't take the aspirin when I was PG with the twins in the summer. I try not to focus on that now. Just looking forward to the 7 week scan next week.

So glad that things are going well for you and most of all they appear calm!

So from what I am seeing, you have broken your record for PG, your longest time PG was 6 weeks. Seems like aspirin is working!
