Hey I jst found this group. I had a mc in August. We got pregnant straight away but I have been really on a roller coaster ride with spotting 3 days before I was expecting my AF...I assumed it had come early but then it stopped so the day before I was due for AF took myself off to the shops to buy a pregnancy test and straight away two lines sprang up. The next day my AF was due but obviously didn't show up. I went to the Dr and they did another test. Negative! I almost died! They decided after my shock that there was a tiny faint line so got me a blood test which came up with really high hcg levels plus I was still spotting on and off so then they were like oh maybe she is having twins better get her an early scan...so off I went and got a scan at 7 weeks and got to see the bean and it's heart was going and all looked great. Just the one baby was seen so that was a huge relief. Had more spotting around 8wks so they booked another scan which showed the baby at 9wks exactly. Had more spotting after my 13wk NT scan and so yesterday spent the day in ER doing tests and got another scan...baby looked fine. Today back to Doctors...she said to rest as much as I can. It is hard as I have a 17 month old to run about after. That is my story so far.

Aww! Good luck libbys mum! I'm sure you and baby will be fine spotting is sometimes normal. I've had it a little & my scan showed baby wrigglin around and a lovely heartbeat! All the best xx

Thanks...We are due in July. I have been given 3 diff due dates so who knows when really it will come when it is good and ready I am sure. I actually want to be induced early if I have Odema again.

LibbysMom: All sounds wonderful to me. A lot of women bleed in early pregnancy and it doesn't always mean MC. Rest as much as you can, I know thats not easy with a toddler as I have one myself. But, all is going to be fine.

Our year is here... It's 2013! Oh baby!

 

[tashalouiseb]

I'm also due in july ! x

Hi Ladies...I just needed to purge my feelings and hope you all don't mind. I just found out yesterday that I am pregnant after 2 miscarriages. (12/2011 & 12/2010) I am so nervous! I Have been having some cramping and low back pain all day, which is how I knew I was miscarrying the first time. I had blood work done today and I should know my levels tomorrow, but that doesn't help my anxiety. Actually I think it makes it worse! I feel like we need to hurry and see if I need progesterone, but no one else seems to think things are as urgent. I must have gone to the bathroom 30 times today to see if AF arrived (I'm not technically late for 2 more days). Gosh, I am nervous...trying to relax, but it's impossible! Anyway, thanks for listening...lost of sticky baby dust to you all!!!

 

[hokiemom]

My fingers are crossed that everything will work out perfectly for you. I'm so sorry for your previous losses. It's such a hard thing

I've had a missed miscarriage at 14 weeks so I know how hard it is good luck!! I'm sure you will be fine, x

I'm sorry for your losses and I'm so excited that you are pregnant again. I'm praying and thinking of you... That this new pregnancy is your rainbow baby.

Tasha: Happy 14 weeks! Yay for the Second Trimester whether you started it today or at 12-13 weeks.

 

[tashalouiseb]

thanks!! x

 

[Sib4Owen]

Thanks for the encouragement. I have been having some cramping (not bad, just annoying) and lower back pain. I know this can be normal, so I am trying to remain calm!

Tasha...Happy 14 weeks! Keep us posted on how you're doing!

 

[Libbysmum]

Hi all...Just updating. We are 21 weeks and 3 days roughly. We are having a boy! DH is delighted but we have not figured out a name yet. Possibly Levi...not sure. Would love to hear updates from everyone else. Trying to toilet train DD before new baby arrives...good times!

 

[tashalouiseb]

Hi im 21 weeks 4 days , also expecting a boy;D I have mason as a name so far but no doubt change my mind lots of times before july lol hope everyone else is doing well!! x

 

[Jessabelle]

Thank you all for making me feel so much better too!! I just got my bfp today after trying for 2 years and 3 months! We had a missed miscarriage at 9/10 weeks in June 2011 and I have never gotten over the trauma of that 12 weeks scan. I am so excited and happy today to finally be pregnant as this has been such a hard journey but I'm also petrified about miscarrying again!! It is so reassuring to read that you have all gone on to have successful pregnancies. It's going to be a long 8 weeks until my scan. I had a tubal patency test last month and we were due to start fertility treatment in the next few months. how things change!!!

I got pregnant the end of July 2012, we lost the baby at 10 weeks in september, stopped growing at 8. I was pregnant again (by accident) 3 days after my miscarriage. I am now 23 weeks and have a growing bump and healthy baby.

Love the positive stories. My Zoela whom I was pg with 5 weeks after a missed miscarriage is now almost 1 1/2 months old. x

Oh congrats! SHe is beautiful! Is that her sister? I am so happy for you!
I had to go to the doctor yesterday because I have had chronic heartburn. Mylanta did nothing except give me the runs. It is so bad I vomit. He gave me a script for Zantac. Apparently they dont usually give it to pregnant ladies under 18wks so thankfully I am almost 23 weeks so it isnt as risky. I hate taking medication while pregnant but I had to weigh up and other pregnant women I know took it and their kids are healthy and fine so I decided to try it and if it doesnt help I will stop taking it. I took it last night and hooray no vomits and a good night sleep!

Libby: I'm so glad you have relief for your HB. Mine was awful both pg. But, in the last few weeks a lady on this forum suggested I try drinking a glass of milk after meals and it worked.

Thank you! Yes my avatar is both of my lovely ladies!

 

[Libbysmum]

I tried the milk thing with our first and it didn't work for me...I think mine must be pretty servere as I don't even have to lay down to get the acid. I could be half way through talking to someone and have to rush off to the nearest toilet to puke mid sentence. I didn't take anything last night and this morning really feel horrible so I guess I learned my lesson.
