Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss #2

[Mich8]

Thanks DG - I'm definitely much less stressed now I just physically feel much better too.
Sorry the m/s is not letting up! I bet your DH doesn't think he's lucking he's working at home this month, he he he

[Saffy]

DG- congrats on an awesome scan result, what arelief, I bet you dont' mind having ms as long as baby is healthy!! Your DH sounds like a good guy

mich- no news is good news!

yas- wow what a rude doctor, sorry you had that experience. Sticky vibes for you xx

dantri- thats a nice post, good luck for your last part of your pregnancy x

Alison- hi, congrats on your pregnancy- what a shame you are having stress again.I hope it settles and you can relax and enjoy your pregnancy, seediness is a good sign.

mia- great news on your scan, what a feeling!

maruschke- wow third trimester, seems like only yesterday.....

rockingbaker- good luck for your scan!

afm- consumed with anxiety about symptoms or lack of. I feel like i was feeling more pregnant a week ago (before my BT), now I am not getting any dizziness, not as hungry, not as emotional. Arggghhh, why is this so hard. I still have sore boobs and have a cold so don't feel great but really i wouldn't know that I was pregnant if I hadn't had a BT- IYKWIM. Theres nothing I can do anyway, so am trying to just go with it but I don't know how you girls do it, get through every day.
Sorry to spew out all my anxiety on you all already but its the only place people understand. Not feeling positive about this one at all.

Hello ladies,

couldn't resist popping in as a 'graduate of this thread' (DD2 is nearly 9mths!) to check in on some friends. Belly rubs to all but to some old friends 'specially:

Loops: so thrilled to read about the birth of your miracle Mylee (love the name). Congratulations!
Saffy: Delighted to hear you got a BFP. And i can understand you are a bundle of nerves (who wouldn't be with a long awaited bubba on board). If it helps at all: i didn't get any pregnancy symptoms until 6weeks with my DD2... (and some people never get much. Someone i know wasn't aware she was pregnant until nearly 20wks! She thought she was just getting fat! I'm guessing that the lack of periods didn't clue her in because she hadn't got her cycle back yet after having her second child).

Hi Ladies


Saffy - I feel exactly the same as you. I actually could have written your post. I felt more pregnant last week before my BT. I've lost most of my symptoms. I still feel some nausea but I'm not 100% sure it's not a cold coming on. Cramping has stopped. My (.Y.) didn't get sore so can't compare that. I'm not feeling positive either. I just feel that something is wrong. Maybe it's my paranoia??? I don't know. But I can't shake this feeling.

I'm really concerned. If I wasn't having another BT tomorrow I'd have requested one earlier. I'm so worried my progesterone is dropping and my levels aren't rising. Dr Google is getting a work out let me tell you. I know BAD idea. I can't help it. I'm trying not to think too far ahead. I even contemplated going to my GP to get a BT just to ease my mind but I thought there isn't anything I can do to change what the outcome will be. I just have to sit it out. Mind you I haven't said a word to DH about my fears. What's he going to say anyway? Just wait and see what the BT says.

So to you cause I feel exactly the same.

Scan went well, due date is the 21/12/12 but I will be going early (my hospital won't do VBA2C and honestly I don't think I could manage one emotionally). HB was 163 and bub is a healthy 8 weeks.

When do people do their next scan normally? I can't really remember with my previous pregnancies.

Woot! Congratulations . The next scan is the 12/13 week NT scan.

Sorry you are feeling like this. I rode the p4 wagon when I was pregnant with DD1. Actually at 5w my p4 was so low they didn't think I ovulated! But I got p4 pessaries and she turned 3 yesterday. Hang in there and I'm hoping for great numbers tomorrow.

Realisticaly I have nothing to worry about my preogesterone was 162. But this is also the very first time I've asked about it so not sure what any of my previous ones were to start with. My 2nd BT for my M/C my progesterone was only 27.5 so I upped my pessaries and it onlymade it go up 10. But not knowing what my original starting level was I have nothing to compare with. I'm on 3x 200mg of progesterone pessaries per day plus proggynova and provera so hoping it's doing it's job. Thank you for you post. I feel heaps better getting those feelings out. I've been quietly going mental in my own world.


RockingBaker - That is such terrific news. Normally you have the NT scan around the 12 week mark. It's not compulsary though. Otherwise it's the 20 week scan next.

Ladies

Congrats RB i had my next scan at almost 13 weeks for the nuchal translucency, but thats cos they couldnt fit me in earlier. Usually its 12wks mark.

I'm sorry to see some of you are not feeling great or confident, I just want to send out a BIG and vote of support for you all.

AFM - nervously awaiting my NT results. Rang today to see if they were ready (I know I know ridiculous as I only had it 2 days ago!) but the nurse said my bt hasnt come back but to call on Monday, so atleast she was nice about it all. I will definately ring them on Monday to get the results even tho I see my OB on Tuesday its 1 whole day earlier to know and also to be able to (hopefully) officially start telling ppl!
Anyways hope you all have a great mothers day weekend

[Porsche]

Mia - How come you didn't get them at the both together? I had to get my BT 2 weeks before my NT scan and I got both results at my scan. Good Luck.

[Diamond Girl]

Mia - Hope you get your blood test results on Monday. It must be so frustrating having to wait.

Saffy & Porche - from me too. Im right there with you.

[Porsche]

I'm so glad we al have each other.

[Yas]

Pretty devastated. Hcg level only rose to 450 from 262 in three days I have no hope- this is exactly what happened before

[Porsche]

Yas - Are you having another BT? I'm sos orry. It's not fair.

[RockingBaker]

Yas

[Maruschke]

Oh Yas thinking of you xoxo

[LuluHB]

I'm so sorry Yas

[Diamond Girl]

Oh no Yas. I am so so sorry to hear this. Its just not fair, I am in tears for you.

[Rach83]

Thinking of you Yas. Fingers crossed that you are wrong and everything is ok.
