Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss #2

[Alison1973]

Hi Girls - I'm onto my 4th pregnancy in 12 months, everything was going so well until Monday I started bleeding, had an immediate scan to find a subchorionic hematoma, quite large. Bleeding stopped the same day but now every cramp and twinge worries me. I've been told to rest and come back in a week. I'm totally petrified of losing this one too, I just can't keep doing this ( I'm only 6.5 weeks along but as I'm being tracked through the fertility clinic I have been having blood tests every 3 days and my levels are great. My only relief (in a yuk way) is that i am suffering all day nausea, that has to be a good sign surely!

Hi to all the familiar names in here, I was a bit hesitant to join given I seem to jinx myself so much but what the hey! Wishing you all happy and healthy pregnancies.

Gosh that must be so stressful and unwelcomed after you've already been through so much. I hope the best rest is successful xoxo thinking of you.

Yippeeeeeeee for excellent scans and an earthside baby

Loops - congrats, I got teary reading your update...
Then got teary again at Mia's and then at DG's update!!! Wasn't teary at all for my scan, ha ha ha!

So so so so great!

Welcome Alison - I'm thinking of you and have my fingers crossed so hard for your next scan. I also had 1 day of bleeding from a SCH two and a half weeks ago. Soooo scary Especially with less than great histories like us I googled like a crazy woman and found heaps of success stories tho. Had lots of cramps and twinges the week following the bleed, rested lots and they gradually went away. I don't know if resting helped or if the twinges were even related but thought it was worth giving a go!

Hi Ladies

Mia & DG what fantasrtivc news about your scans. Woo Hoo! I'm vry happy for your both.

CurlyTop - Welcome.

RockingBaker - FX for those levels.

[Maruschke]

Alison how are you going? I hope you haven't seen any more of that bleed. Thinking of you xoxo

[Alison1973]

Hi Mich - thank you so much, it's nice to hear others in the same boat, has your clot dissipated do you know? My only concern is that mine is a large one, it's the same size as the sac which is only small in itself but considered large. I haven't had any more bleeding since the day it was discovered but I've had a little bit of brown discharge, just a teeny bit mostly noticeable when I go to the toilet. Did you have that too? I still feel super seedy so hoping that's a good sign. Just wish I could kick this back ache, it really worries me. Fingers crossed your journey is much easier from hereon in.

Hi Maruschke - thank you for checking in on me, as above I haven't had any more bleeding so I'm hoping that's a good sign. I honestly feel like a ticking time bomb at the moment and wish Monday would hurry up so I can have another scan. I just pray I make it that far.

Alison, firstly . Im sorry to hear you are still having issues. I have been there and I know just how awful it is to be given a diagnosis like that. I have done plenty of research on SCHs and in most cases it does resolve on its own and doesnt cause any further issues. The m/s is a great sign, so take some positivity from that also. I wish there was more I could say to reassure you but all I can do is hold your hand through this and offer you plenty of understanding.

RockinBaker - GL for your scan today.

Just wanted to pop in quickly to say yay yay yay for Mia and DG. DG: Fingers crossed that the next few weeks are all good and your life is insanely boring for the next 7/8 months

Sorry I don't post in here often ladies, I do pop in from time to time and have you all in my thoughts. You're all such brave mummies, keep fighting! Nearing the end of my pregnancy I'm getting very sentimental about the whole journey, including my previous pregnancy with our angel as it is all part of it. I just can't believe that we've come this far and that it looks as though I'll have a baby in a month or so! I'm so proud of my little one for hanging in there and fighting with
me. I used to tell my belly in the early stages, "how about we do this thing bubby. How about we both just stick together and go the whole thing" lol. It is so hard though and many of you are braver than I. I know a lot of you are in those terrible early stages of pregnancy and i guess i just wanted to share my thoughts with you as you will all get to the stage I'm at now. There is a special soul just for you waiting to be brave and stick with you. You gotta believe it! Hang in there mummies. Much love and sticky vibes to you all... Xoxoxo

Hey everybody!
Yay for awesome scans
Afm- sorry for the me post I'm on my phone. Hcg was only 262. The doctors I have seen have been awful except for my normal GP today. The first doc on tuesday kept asking me If I was keeping the baby and that I looked like I was struggling with 2 (because I was trying to get ds2 bottle out of the bottom of the pram one handed while holding him. Just because I have a 7 month old doesn't mean I don't want this baby!
Then I went yesterday and this doc refused to give me another hcg test because I wasn't bleeding. He repeatedly cut me off and refused to look up my history- we argued and he then proceeded to tell me I was acting overemotional and ridiculous. I left after that.
But today was better. Not feeling that positive but I still have hope.
Big hugs to everyone that needs them xxxx

[Maruschke]

OMG Yas what a *#%*# of a doctor! How dare someone makes comments like that O.o. FX your bub is a super sticky one. Every healthy pregnancy starts with a hcg of 1 and at some stage has a hcg of 262, so hang in there!

[Yas]

Thanks Maruschke OMG not long now! You must be getting so big (and lets face it....uncomfy!) So excited for you! xxxx

DG- Omg hun. I am SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!! I am so relieved everything is good so far, only 30 weeks to go, so yay for double digets! Lots of love and the stickiest vibes EVER xxxxx

Alison- Big hugs, and lots of sticky vibes for your little bubba.

Dantri- good luck for your impending birth!!!! xx

AFM- DS2 is commando crawling around my feet drooling all over my foot lol. In a strange way that gives me hope that everything might be ok- it's happened before!
Stickiest dust xxxx

Double post

[Mich8]

Oh Yas - what an a*s! You have every right to know what's going on with your body and your baby. New dr required!! How far along are you?

Dantri - thanks for popping in and congrats on almost having your little one in your arms. I love positive stories, even if they make me cry (again!)

Mia and DG - I hope you're still on a high!!

Maruschke - sorry about the but it's true, ha ha ha!

Allison - My ob could tell how stressed I was when I went in after bleeding so never told me the size of the SCH. I could tell it wrapped around the bottom of the sac but I was 10wks2 by then so sac was bigish. The ultrasound place told me they couldn't see it on Monday so I'm really hoping it's resolved itself. I don't 100% believe them because I know the ob had to search really hard to find it cos it was at the back. I'll find out next Wednesday. I didn't have any spotting after the day of bleeding but the ob did tell me that I might. He said if I did, it should be brown and it's just old blood from the SCH coming out. I really hope that's what yours is doing You've been through so much, it should be your turn! I hope you've got plenty to distract yourself this weekend and that Monday arrives really quickly

Hi everyone else - I hope everything is going perfectly. I have nothing to report today - which is great!!

[Diamond Girl]

Yas - What terrible experiences you've had. Im so mad at those Drs! Im praying for a sticky one for you.

Mich - Just wanted to give you some reassurance. Whenever I had a SCH, no matter whether it was big or small it was always easily identifiable by the sonographer. They always noticed it fairly straight away because it appears as a big black mass on u/s near or next to the sac. I know you said yours was around the back, but I honestly believe if it was not large enough to be easily seen, then it can hardly be large enough to cause problems, even if it is wrapped around the back. It does sound like you bled it out (I never bled with any of mine) so I think thats a fantastic sign. I hope there is still no sign of it on Wed.

Alison - Wishing you well for Monday.

Dantri - Lovely to hear from you. Wishing you all the best for the birth of your precious little one.

No news from me because Im stuck in bed with m/s. Poor DH has to do everything around here atm. Lucky he is working from home this month.
