[RobertRedford]

Julie, I missed the bump before. How cute! Do you feel like you're growing daily?

YAY Morgan!! That's great news!

 

[clynn11]

Thats good bb. Theres multiple conditions that could cause bleeding at this time that is not losing the baby. Are you going to the dr. Again or waiting until tmw for bloods? Fx hun


morgan that is amazing news yaaaaay

 

[RobertRedford]

Cassidy, when is your first appointment?

 

[brunettebimbo]

They don't want to see me until tomorrow because there's nothing they can do. They need 48 hours between blood tests. It's 6.30pm here so not too long now. My appointment is at 11am and I should know before the evening. I guess to tomorrow is the answer!

 

[clynn11]

Dec. 20th. 8 weeks exactly.

 

[brunettebimbo]

Your due dates all look backwards

cassidy, they wanted me to wait until 8 weeks, but i want to tell my mom and sisters when we go to NYC on 12/20 weekend, so i told them i was traveling the week of christmas and they got me in on the 18, hehe. today i'm feeling slightly dizzy, not quite nauseous but sorta, foggy-brained, and very full. and mild headache, but maybe mild congestion. occasional dull cramps, and lots of pooping it's like my body cant quite figure out what the heck is going on, so it's doing something in every category. globally, i feel fine and all is well, but specifically i have all this weirdo stuff happening. oh and sore boobs.

BB- I'm worried they'll do to you what they did to me. I swear we have the EXACT same situations. I went in exactly 48 hrs later and my hCG numbers ttly had NOT doubled AT ALL and they said "well along with that bleeding, you should expect to miscarry". They shouldn't have said that, they DIDN'T know for sure, and told my husband and I they were 99% positive of this. I ended up going to the emergency room yet again the next day and DEMANDING a scan, in which they found a teeny, tiny little sac right where it should be. This was the light at the end of the tunnel for us. Still risky, but as you know she made it and I bled bad, bad, bad clots and all for weeks on end with NO ANSWERS.

So I really, really hope they do another scan and don't rely on those numbers doubling to reassure you. Bc they can NOT double and still be fine. Then after all that bullshit (pardon me, but I just remember how frustrating it was being MY OWN doctor for those first few weeks) they finally found a tiny bean and a week later told me "oh the heartbeat is abnormally low- 112 I think- and you'll probably miscarry still". This is all based on the fact that I was bleeding, not that there was ANYTHING WRONG with my bean, anyone else's bean could have been the same but they kept with that damned diagnosis up until 12 weeks when they saw that she just wasn't letting go.

Moral here- don't let doctors make you lose hope. If you don't pass tissue (you will KNOW what it is if you do) then don't let them discourage you. They're not trained midwives or mothers, they're medical pros who go by statistics and are trained to prepare you for the worst. And sometimes they aren't clear that there is always hope. Sending love always

Yay BB! So glad that things are looking better for you! Lol about the dates, of course the US is the only country that does it that way so it looks backwards to everyone else! Still don't totally understand why our country insists on doing everything different than other countries(i.e date and not using the metric system)

Woohoo for the good news Morgan!!

Cassidy, I'm SO excited for when you get your first scan!

 

[morganwhite7]

Hahaha @ BB in the US we write it Month,Day,Year instead.. I remember that one from French class!! Haha

I agree about the metric system.. customary is so difficult.. makes more sense to have a base of 10?! Stupid America, so stuck in their ways.. lol

 

[brunettebimbo]

We do day, month then year!

Bleeding seems to be easing off a little and I'm constipated again!

Did I tell you I have an urine infection? They've give me antibiotics to take 4 times a day for a week.

They said they will do bloods tomorrow and re scan on Monday.

 

[morganwhite7]

Okay well it took me 96 hrs for them to double, so don't you dare let em tell you negative this or that about it not doubling in 48 just sayin! Haha I just wanna give you all I can, I feel your struggle so much right now!

Ohhhh Raaaachhh... what is ittttt ???

 

[brunettebimbo]

Thank you.

Bleeding isn't bad right now. There's been a few small stringy bits but nothing more than a usual period. I'm trying to stay hopeful but I really feel like this is the end
