day by day... if you look at the big picture is sometimes just too much!!! ALL the days we have left til we hold our little ones... but day by day isnt so bad!!

 

[Minimin]

Well I have got stuck on the 2nd Milestone. My levels only increased by58% over 48 hours and they should be at least 66% but preferably 100%.
More monitoring and waiting.

minimin XXXX whens ur next bloods / results

 

[Minimin]

Friday morning- But I dont hold much hope If the numbers are still rising and not doubling it is a high chance of another ectopic. If that is the case I could potentially lose my only fallopian tube. Horrible to say but I would rather MC

 

[MissyMojo]

aww sweetheart i have hope for you xxxxxxx

 

[Minimin]

Thank you babe- it is hard to have hope for oneself as we said earlier!

 

[MissyMojo]

then i have a bucket load for you xxxxxxxx

I have loads of PMA for others but when I come to being positive about me I cant help but let the doubts creep in. i think thats normal. At least we have each other to help us through this.

Beadette- your MC was the same time as mine too

Aw was it!

lets try and keep the PMA for this time

 

[Beadette]

Sorry Minimin - I've only just caught up with the rest of the convo! I'm sorry that your numbers have not risen as much as you wanted/they should(?) but try and keep the faith darlin! Unfortunately I can't give any practical advice at all as I have never had bloods measured for HCG so not sure how they are supposed to go up etc!

I'm sending you lots and lots of love x x x x x

1. Missed period - done.
2. Pregnant on a digi - done.
3. Private viability scan at 8 weeks.
4. Dating scan - check skull/brain development
5. 20 week scan - check spine for bifida.

Then I'll be happy.

im still finding it hard to be excitied and im 17 weeks tomorrow, i dont think the fear ever really goes, maybe when im viable i'll be a bit happier, im not buying things till then tho! each day we pass is a day further into our pregnancy and our baby is getting stronger and stronger..... i have had 5 miscarriages in a row with no real cause identified, i did nothing different this time so i guess it could of really just been v. bad luck, at least i kind of hope it was!
i wish i could let myself get more excited sometimes, i think i keep myself from planning for this baby too much as the pain is so much worse when you think of what was meant to be.....i duno, im going on now.
here's to happy and healthy pregnancies for us all

You're just saying things that the rest of us think! As for me... I don't know! I was okay with everything until I got the + test! LOL I was still planning my nursery, buying baby stuff last Monday (before the +)... just motoring along! I even thought there was a good chance I might be pregnant before the test went +... but then when it did... I think I've lost my mind!

 

[Lotti1978]

Im with you all...worry about stress at work and all the running around to schools immunisation sessions I do with equipment but I need to relax. MC is common and I cant blame that on causing it...it could have been many things. Im going to chill and look after myself and pray....Im terrified!!!!!!

 

[Megg33k]

Understandable, Lotti! Congrats though!
