I know a 2nd mc seems like a cruel joke, i remember i was mad with the world, but please dont give up, you have two angels looking over you, you will get your rainbow. Pm me if i can do anything for you

 

[littlemama16]

hey ladies thank you for all your kind words, when i went for scan i was 9 weeks and 4 days and bub was measuring 9 weeks 4 days, doc ordered beta hcg blood tests to be done friday and monday and i see him again on tuesday as wants to be 100% sure being that everything was measuring correctly, i haven't had any bleeding no cramps and still feel quite pregnant i cant help but feel they are wrong which i know is most likely wishful thinking but atm its helping me through, if all is right and my little angel has gone to heaven this will be my third miscarriage i had one when i was 19 at 6 weeks pregnant, and one last year in jan, doc has said that because this is my third he is going to start investigating and see about taking some medications to help when i do fall again, also have some blood tests to make sure no underlying problem is causing them, at this point i don't even know if i want to even think about trying again my happy ending seems to be getting further and further away i feel like y body is against me but thank you for all your kind words they truly are appreciated, i will update as soon as i know more from doc thank you xx

 

[chistiana]

Thanks for updating us littlemama. Did the doc do a tvu or just an abdominal one? I m really really hoping he was wrong and just missed the hb. If however your angel has indeed grown its wings please please dont lose hope huney. I know you probably dont want to even think about ttc again now but you re so very strong and i m sure you will get your rainbow someday. Once you have some answers about whats causnig your mcs you can take some measures and have your happy ending. It might even be something as simple as aspirin to help with blood flow. Anyway, i am blabling, i just want you to know i m here for you . Lots of hugs

 

[sbl]

Hope your ok Littlemama,
As chistiana has said if you just had an abdominal ultrasound and not tvu it may have just not picked it up. I always had tvu up till 12 weeks and another tvu at 18 weeks to check my cevix. If unfortunately you are having another tragic loss dont give up hope. we are here for you.
As for me, unfortunately my sister has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. They have caught it in the early stages but we are all, as you can imagine beside ourselves with worry.
I cant quite believe it.
xx

 

[chistiana]

Ow sbl, this is tragic news. I m so sorry she and you are all going through this. Please be strong for your sister, it s a good thing they ve caught it early. I will be thinking and praying for her.

Hi ladies, I just got diagnosed today with a heart-shapped uterus at nearly 10 weeks pregnant. The doctor didn't seem too concerned, and the u/s went well but I'm obviously now wondering what this means for the future of this pregnancy. Any advice is appreciated.

 

[chistiana]

Hi dime and welcome. A heart shaped uterus is a much better/softer version of a bicornuate uterus. It means there is a very slight drop at the top of your uterus. It probably wont affect your pg at all considering its small and as the baby grows the uterus streches. I had a complete septum down the middle and still made it to 38+4 and 35+2 with my babies. Nevertheless your doc might treat you as high risk and you might want to rest whenever and as much as you can. If you have any more questions i ll be happy to help if i know the answer. Congratulations and keep us updated we love more success stories!

Thanks Christiana, i probably will have more questions, this is all very new to me, I didn't even know this was possible. The doctor's notes say bicornuate but he described it to me as heart-shapped. He just didn't go into any detail so I wasn't worried until I got home and looked into it myself.
