    Ok so HCG is still good; 16000 at 5w4d, and progesterone has increased. Bleeding had currently stopped. I don't know what to think! Scan on Fri, just gotta get there!

    Re: Pregnancy after LT TTC #21

    Hope you girls are all doing well. I'm 18weeks today, still haven't felt any serious movement =( I've felt random possible rolls, but with Spock I was feeling heaps by now. I must have an anterior placenta...but don't know cause I haven't had a scan yet. I've just been busy by rearranging furniture, culling Spocks clothes so there is more wardrobe space, as the two will share a room, even though Quark will be in our room sleep wise. I'm still feeling cluttered though, like we have so much junk around the house I just feel the need to get rid of everything! In Jan I did a massive cull and got rid of at least half our house contents, but I still don't feel it's enough. I had a dream last night about it and I had even more stuff in my dream, meaning more junk in my head. So I don't think it's nesiciarilly a physical clean up I need to do...maybe it's a mental one.

    Im feeling a bit the same! Cull, cull, cull! We'd have no furniture left if I was left alone! I had an anterior placenta with my daughter and it was hard to feel her move

    Good idea to clear clutter before arrival ttc40,

    Hmm, when is your scan?
    I wouldn't worry too much though some bubs literally are lazy in there and some wait till your fast asleep when your body Is completely relaxed to do the main moves ha ha.
    But get a scan soon if your worried it will definitely let you know where that placenta is .
    You probably got a cruisey bub who loves to be rocked about to sleep!
    They all have different personalities even in the womb!

    Re: Pregnancy after LT TTC #21

    TT40 that’s reassuring to here your not feeling much at the moment in the way of movements. I am only 14weeks tomorrow and basically nothing. I know its strange complaining at this early stage of lack of movements but with my last daughter I could feel her moving a lot at this stage. I know my placenta is posterior again this time. Wish my anxiety would allow me to have less scans. With my 1st I had 1 blood test at 8weeks for normal antenatal stuff and 1 scan at 18weeks and that was it. After 5 losses since I am paranoid although scans themselves have me in an anxiety attack. At least now I can find bub with the Doppler and reassure myself. Its funny really as I work as a midwife and my co-workers have never seen me panick and have all agreed if they ever see me in a fizz or panick at work its going to mean something is very very wrong. I panick inside don't get me wrong I must just be really good at my poker face.

    Bec is your scan tomorrow? I will be praying you see a healthy little heart beating away tomorrow.

    Re: Pregnancy after LT TTC #21

    I forgot you were a midwife M! I think my being one is what makes me so calm! I've never had a loss though, so that helps!
    I'm a very calm person anyway. I caught a bub the other night and afterwards the dr couldn't stop going on about how I never even batted an eyelid when there was cord around the neck.mmi just shrugged and said, it was loose and she could be born through it, felt normal to me! But he said so many other midwives freak out at that. Lol. Was good to know he has more confidence in me now (only been working with him. For a few months, and was 2 birth together).

    Thanks for the luck ladies. All looked ok. We saw our little pea with heartbeat! We could see where the bleeding had happened but no obvious cause. He wants to see you us again next week, but I might wait a few extra days and see my normal fs. Yay!

    Re: Pregnancy after LT TTC #21

    How is everyone going? Good I hope.

    I had a scare yesterday. Wish I could say after 12weeks these things were a distant memory. I had a lot of discharge coming out in a gush every hour or two. I'd fake sneeze or cough and it wouldn't happen which was a good thing and it didn't smell like amniotic fluid. I lay down most of the day yesterday and it seemed to stop overnight. Then this morning (hardly slept last night because I couldn't stop crying and thinking the worst) I started having cramping and backpain. I called labour ward hoping to come in and get checked out (they usually don't see anyone until 18weeks) and my Ob just happened to be there and told me to come into his surgery. He made me feel a bit of an idiot but I am not complaining as I am reassured. See this morning when I showered and washed myself I could feel my uterus and cervix only an inch inside my vagina. With my last pregnancies it was no where to be found so this freaked me out too plus I was having pain in my vag too. More like pressure then anything else. Anyway he did another scan. He could not see if my cervix was shortening on the ultrasound as my bladder was empty but there was definitely no funneling and lots of fluid around the baby. Speculum also showed no fluid pooling in the vagina or coming from the cervix when I coughed although he did say I had quiet a bit of fluid he just thought that was thrush. I am not convinced it is but will treat it anyway and as long as the baby is ok and my anatomy keeps it in I am happy. He also said my ridiculously low uterus/cervix was just a sign of my parity and nothing to worry about. Told me not to compare it to before pregnancy or any other pregnancy. Anyway that's my scare and I hope it the last one. I am still uncomfortable but as long as bub is ok I can deal with everything else.
