Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss #4

[Saffy]

Andie- best of luck for tomorrow love xx
Vic- I had all those feelings too, its normal I guess. As for he HB at 11 weeks I hink I heard mine about 11 and 1/2 wks on a doppler I had at home but it took ages to find ( not sure if your gp would persist as long as me) and then i didn't find it for a few days after that, its very hard, esp with a tummy. My ms had completely finished by your gestation now. I'm really wishing for the best outcome for oyu hun, everything is going well so far and you just have ot keep your chin up and stay as positive as you can xx
Joeve-I love you being 31 weeks!
Hi everyone else, hope all is well, I have been very quiet on here as we had no internet for ages ( frustrating as I was stuck at home with a sore coccyx and no bellybelly or facebook )
but all good now. I did a catch up read.

Had obs appt today- can cease clexane woohoo!, all ok especially that baby is head down now after torturing me for weeks, doing acrobats and being breech/transverse constantly, I nearly went demented. Only problem is that my fundal height is still at 33 cm which it was at 34wks, so I am having a growth scan on Thursday. My belly is getting bigger but I felt like the baby wasn't really so I was right. Fluid level good and lots of movements now it is head down so not too concerned, but I am going to try and get everything organised this week just in case!!!!!! Holy moly, am I having a baby soon??

[Joeve]

Andie good luck for you scan! Exciting
Vic milestone dates mess with your head, ms is good trust your instincts and hope bub is doing well.
Saffy yay for no clexane! Jealous! I had a growth scan last week and bub was head down the movements now are so different.
I still am sick, a bit depressing now and I am just not hungry. Have a ob debrief over scan results shortly but according to scan all measurements seemed good normal etc.
Hugs to everyone else and hope you are all busy baking away x

hi ladies - i actually had my scan yesterday... all looks good and we saw a heartbeat. it was a hard day, i was crying as soon as i entered the imaging centre... kept me waiting for an hour past my appt time too, just to drag out the suspense. but we saw the yolk sac, fetal pole & heartbeat - and all measuring as it should. kind of doesnt feel real yet though?! i am feeling fine, a little queasy yesterday afternoon, but i think thats just bc of the stress of yesterday. i booked my first ob appt this morning . that was weird. it will be just after christmas, and they will do a scan then too, so i will be around 9-10 weeks by then. i saw my fs yesterday too, which was a nice way to end the day.

joeve - you poor thing, thats not fair being 31 weeks and having ms.

saffy - yay for finishing clexane! i am getting sick of it already, i have some massive bruises. fs seems to think i should be able to come off it by 12 weeks, but i am a bit scared to come off any of the extra meds im on. see what the ob thinks i guess.

vic - hope you're feeling a bit better about things today. i know its hard to believe that things will turn out ok, im still struggling with that myself. but i keep reminding myself of all the good bits that are pointing to things going well (hcg numbers, heartbeat etc). still have my panic days though and i expect i will until i am actually handed a baby.

hi tasha & anyone else ive missed. xx

Just popping in to say woohoo Andie! Sounds like a highly stressful day with a perfect result. Hope you can relax just a little now and enjoy your Christmas x

[Saffy]

unreal andie!

Last night I woke through the night with really bad pains in what I think is the kidney area. I went to the loo and when I wiped I found a bit of blood. Not full blown red, pink when I wiped. Like when af is coming on. It freakes me out. I didnt bleed last time. It has not happened again. No muccous, just pale pink. I am going to see if I cant get a scan today. Far out, this being pg is way more stressful than ttc.

Vic, you could have a nasty UTI!

[Joeve]

Vic I second that it could be a uti.

[vic261]

God I pray thats all it is. It doesn't hurt to pee but I am going a lot, but thought that was just being pg and drinking lots of water because its warm. I doubt I will be able to get into the doctors, I know she is booked until Jan.

Maybe - Am LOVING your avi x

I just called the clinic and can go to the treatment room this afternoon as she starts at 3.15pm today.

I had one when I was younger that I didn't get any symptoms with until it was quite severe and I was cramping, it totally sucked and I ended up in the E.D!

and thank you, I love it too! From my first day on BB I was waiting for the day when I could get a bump avi, I was almost scared to have it uploaded but I'm just going to enjoy it because it's gorgeous. The lovely Novella created it for me!

[Joeve]

Vic just tell them you are seeing a bit of blood, I had bright red bleeding at 11 weeks and they squashed me in for an us as I was freaking out on the phone. Most are reasonable like that

[vic261]

I called the clinic and they said to come in at 3.15pm to the treatment room as she starts work then.

Joeve - I kept chanting through the night that you and Saff had bleeds around the same time and your both still pg.

Maybe - I am going to wait until my 12 week scan to get another one made. I had one made last time, but had the mc before it was uploaded.

[Saffy]

I had a full scale haemorrhage at 13 weeks no explaination. It defiantely doesn't do much for your mental health but babies can hack it.
It still sucks Vic, why can't our pregnancies be normal, I think just about everyone on here bled in first trimester, its more common with ivf apparently.
Was it from your vagina or urethra do you think? I've passed blood with a UTI before.
Best of luck for this afternoon, sure all will be fine xxxx

[vic261]

Not too sure Saff. How do I know if its from the vagina or urethra?

I said to DH maybe it was a kidney infection but UTI sounds more realistic. Pook DH was shaken awake at 12.15am this morning and held my hand all night. I had endless dreams of mc whenever I did sleep. I know its common to bleed through pg (especially after being on bb) but its hard to take when its actually happening to you.

DH said first thing this morning to get on and ask the girls what they think. lol. Thank you girls, so very much for your support and keeping me sane.

[Marley&Me]

Vic, praying everything is ok. I also had a bleed at 6 weeks, it was a subchronic haemorrhage (sp?) and i was spotting after for about 10 days. The ultrasound lady said that it is fairly common and some women have HUGE ones that bleed a lot, but the baby is still fine. It's so scary and it sucks big time

[vic261]

Mine was tiny. Just a wipe on the toilet paper. I wiped three times then it was gone. It has not happened since, thank god. I have been going to the loo every 20 minutes I swear. I just cant bear to lose this baby. Not after last time.

I feel mean now for not talking to it and living in the now instead of living with the fear of last time. I have started talking to BOO (baby of ours) and telling him/her to be tough, strong and fight and to know how much we love and want him/her so badly.

[Joeve]

Vic are you on clexane? My bleed was similar I had it twice two days apart a couple of wipes and it was gone. They suspect it was just a little blood vessel or something and the clexane makes it bleed more. We have not DTD since we conceived because we are too scared lol poor DH is watching a lot of sbs I suspect but maybe if you have DTD that could irritate something?
Lots of reasons not related to bub could be responsible fingers crossed.

[vic261]

I am not on clexane and have not DTD since Saturday night. Your poor DH is a saint. And you are too
