I would have to agree with Anila on the intuition thing, there was no exact reason why for me just a series of little things that all sort of added up, I also had a few "weird" experiences that really quite scared me and had me thinking that something was wrong, I was also REALLY aprehensive about going to my scan (where I found out my bub had no HB) but I had no reason at all to be, just something in my head/body that was niggling constantly "this isnt gonna be good"
I hope that makes sense!
I didn't know until I started bleeding, but once I saw the bleeding, even though it wasn't much then, I knew what was happening. Of course it got worse over the coming days, but as soon as I saw it my heart iced over
I think that people who just *know* they're pregnant, without testing, are the ones that *know* when they miscarry - I don't know why, I don't think its just because some are more in tune with their bodies, because I'm not in tune with mine. LOL, sorry, not much help to you
I just knew something was wrong - people kept telling me I was just paranoid, that I was young and healthy so there was no reason why I would miscarry but I just knew - and when I started to spot - I knew that I was right. It upset me that peple weren't taking me seriously, including my doc!
I think a mothers intuition begins as soon as we are pregnant, as we are all mums, even if it's only to our angel babies!
I didn't know. I had a little bleed at 11weeks 5 days and right up until I had a scan at 12 weeks I was talking to 'him' telling him to hang in there. When they told me his heart had only stopped beating the day before I was devastated.
I was sus when my morning sickness didn't start (usually at 6 weeks). I also felt really strange/silly when I was organising a midwife and making plans.. looking back it's almost as if I knew. Then when I started spotting I just knew it wasn't good. I tried to convince myself that spotting can be fine (I had it with DS) but my gut just knew i think. I was very apprehensive going for my scan at 7 weeks and I'm usually really laid back about my scans... I just knew it was going to be an empty screen. Didn't make it much easier actually seeing it tho
For me, I had an instinct with both of my angel babes, that there just wasn't something 'right'. With my first pg, I had spotting, then bleeding from very early on. I had a dream about my baby, and it just felt like he was saying good bye. I had several u/s which all came back ok. But at the last one at 18wks, I just knew it would not be good news. He had passed away the week prior. I had a very simial experience with my second pg, though not as bad bleeding or cramping, but I also had a dream with this baby and again it felt like he was saying goodbye. He was warning me that he would not be earthside with us and was saying hello and goodbye. We found out at 11 weeks that the pg was not to be.
With my next two pg, I did not dream about these bubs, and I just knew it would be ok. Although I had spotting with DD's pg and I was absolutely petrified both times, deep down I knew it would be ok. I feel the same with this pg. Although I have dreamed of this baby, it was a very differnt feeling and she was an older bub (not that I truely know she's a she, I just *know*, lol!), she was sitting up and playing with toys. It was a happy feeling and I just have a feeling it will be all good and she will be with us soon.
For me I had a really sensitive nose before I found out I was pg (which was a big tip off) then I couldn't stomach the smell of meat and it was like that for a few weeks then all of a sudden it didn't worry me as much (first clue). Then I was booked in for a dating scan when I thought that I should be at least 6weeks 2 days and I was so nervous and had a really bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, had the scan and was measuring 5 weeks (no biggy) and no heartbeat which isn't unusal. Came back 3 weeks later and still no heartbeat worst day of my life, but after the first scan I just knew with all my being that it was not going to end well.
i sort of knew with all 3 of my lil angels with my first it was the back pain that got me it was excruciatting and then i felt really weird for a couple of days like i knew something was wrong but i just tried to ignore it with my son he was a twin and i never knew but i had some bleeding and cramping and started getting fevers and migraines when i went to check they told me all was fine and admittted me due to the fever but found out later that day that there was 2 in there and that one had passed away and my last one i was 12 n a half weeks and for some reason i didnt feel like i was normal and they checked and he was gone and i didnt bleed so i had no idea.. funny thing though i always had dreams a couple days before that i had lost them... weird to say the least but i sort of trust my sub concious now..
