Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss #3

Good luck tomorrow Tasha, have everything crossed for you :hug:

:hello: Ladies
Ladybirdflies, Joeve, toomanyshoes,Tasha and anyone I've missed

Hope you're all well

Tasha - :goodluck: with your results, hanging to see how you go :)

AFM - yesterday went to Coles and as I was walking started getting real bad pain and pressure down there. Felt like someone was punching me down there so had to sit down and DH quickly finished the grocery shop, bless.
This morning I had similar pains, so much so I thought my waters would break from the pressure but NOPE. I think its just baby moving down into position so atleast she's "heading in the right direction" LOL
Hope everyones doing well ;) Have a great week all, and giddy up for Tuesday!

Mia woo hoo exciting! She's getting ready to launch :)
Tasha good luck hope you get awesome results.
TMS hope everything is going along well for you and no more brown spotting.
Saffy lovely girl hope you are well, have you finished work yet?
Not much happening here, I am finding it hard to do things I get so puffed out quickly!! I am trying to do house work today but keep needing to have a rest! Hurry up Christmas holidays!

Going ok Joeve, first day back at work today. Still spotting, had a tiny bit of blood twice as well but still no cramping. Just have to wait and see whats on the u/s come friday.

Crossing fingers for you x I had bright red small bleeds twice just on 12 weeks and I know how scary it is. Anything coming out apart from wee is terrifying.

Hi ladies
Just an update, Hcg was 962 on Wednesday and 1838 on Friday :) So all is looking good at this stage. I had some cramping today and it scared the crap out of me. It came around lunch time and lasted about an hour. Still no bleeding, but the cramps were stronger than I have experienced in the last 2 weeks.

Good numbers Tasha, hopefully the cramping is just bub snuggling in nice and tight for the next 8 months or so :hug:

Tasha great numbers!!

Thanks girls :)
TMS, glad to see your still hangin in there. Good luck for friday, end of the week can't come quick enough!
Joeve, sounds like a good excuse not to do housework hey? ;)
Mia, hurry up and pop! :)
Hi everyone else.

I am getting more blood taken on Thursday and get results Friday. It's gonna be a loooong week for all of us I think!

Great numbers tasha. Can you work out how far along you are?

GP said between 5 and 6 weeks. I had guessed 5 weeks, so close.
I should add, I had lower back pain today most of the day. Is that normal or is it bad combined with the cramps??

Tasha it's normal don't stress. Everyone has different things happen as I said above I had bright red bleeding and everyone always says brown blood is ok red isn't. Your numbers are excellent your body can do this! You are well and truly utd xx

Sorry. I will try not to stress out any more. It's just so hard, as you all understand.

aww sweetie don't say sorry! I was trying to be encouraging hope it didn't come across wrong xx

No, not at all Joeve :) It's just that the few people I have told are always telling me not to stress and getting kinda mad :/

Not stressing is impossible. Having had two term pregnancies and too many m/c's nothing is normal/abnormal. We obsess with every symptom or lack of.

All you can do is get through each day and look after yourself, at this point you have good numbers that are going in the right direction, hold that news tight because it IS good news. It's another step closer.

After long term TTC or TTC after m/c loss, pregnancy just isn't normal, we're robbed of that innocence and frankly it isn't fair but we just have to get through it. I get so frustrated when people say I should be happy there is a heart beat, I AM happy but its not as easy as that, there's still a long road ahead.

Here you can say what you want and know we understand :hug:

Well said TMS. It really sucks :hug:

Bleeding heavily for the last 3+ hours, still no cramping and our water is off until 5pm so I can't even have a shower *sigh*

TMS hugs babe. I am throwing this out there, my friend had dropping HCG, she had heavy bleeding and cramping, and called me because she knew I had mc before and wanted to know what to expect. She went to ED had a scan and there was bub with heartbeat. Ob suggested she was losing a twin... she went on to have a happy healthy baby boy.
I want so much for this to be you. Hugs and lots love x

Thanks Joeve, I know there's a chance. My first HCG was high and it dropped very slowly. Having been through this a few times now I know I haven't passed a sack or anything at this stage.

No point in the ER, they will send me to the local place for an u/s which is super busy. Just have to wait n see what happens.

Thinking of you TMS xx

Tms- thinking of you... Has the bleeding stopped? What a roller coaster xx

The bleeding has stopped and we're now back to brown but that doesn't seem as much as before, there was a tiny bit of blood when wiping earlier.

If its another m/c I really wish it would hurry up, if feel so heartless saying that but the ups and downs are doing my head in!

I can't imagine having to deal with this another week, month! I'm a big bundle of stress, it's not making for a very happy home life :(

TMS the hanging around wondering is what I found really hard, it's no wonder you are so stressed, I hope you feel supported IRL. Is there any way you can get a scan today or tomorrow instead of FRiday?? I am sure you have thought of it, but perhaps you can beg someone?

If I made a big enough fuss I'm sure I could but I really don't think it will do anything.. No heart beat I'll need a repeat scan to make sure the m/c is complete and if there is a heart beat there is more waiting.

sorry you are going through this tms, how many weeks are you?

8weeks on friday.

Hows everything going for you?
