Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss #6

Greenslw - salty licorice was part of my dutch upbringing :) They're famous for it. Helps my throat though. Only had to take 2... Yay for feeling bub! I haven't felt mine since Monday... Come on bub start moving! Nice no more meds! I'm enjoying being off the pessaries and metformin.

V21 - enjoy your long break! Very jealous! I just have the day off, then back to work Friday and Saturday. I'm getting there, feeling a little better - went to acupuncture and was fit enough to go to the pregnancy yoga! Now on the lounge relaxing...

is morning sickness only real if you are chucking up? sorry not sure how else to put it. i feel like i am about to but don't actually. heart burn was worse this evening and the boobs are very sore.
good signs right?
scan booked for may 4th - can i please fast forward lol

Morning sickness is nausea or vomiting. You dont have to be sick to feel sick. And the nausea certainly affects all areas of your life. It definately counts :hug:

I think the nausea can be just as if not worse than vomiting.
At least with vomiting you have relief for a bit with the nausea it can be unrelenting at times.

Yes they sound like very positive signs to me, I hope the next week & a bit goes quickly for you :)

Me4 I've got German background all the food I like I can't eat blah miss cheese.. But it's not long haven't tried Dutch licorice DF eats it though. If I get another cold ill try it you feeling better?
Kbudgie ms is real without the follow through. Sounds good to me. Bring on may 5

DF is being a pain today even after I let him sleep in, the words "get out" are on the tip of my tounge. Not sad just over it. Grrr

Greenslw - the salty licorice only helps for sore throat... My nose cold is still there. Am feeling pretty weak. I'm afraid it's moving to my chest. I thought after 4 days it would ease off a bit, but no. Haven't felt bubs move either lately. Have been trying to make it wiggle around, but not working. Can't wait for ob visit on Monday.

Kbudgie - may 5 is not far away! To ease heart burn, try not to eat oily/fatty food, like fried fish. Also try to avoid soft drinks and eat small portions throughout the day. Might also help with your nausea!

Hi ladies I had a early mc a couple of months ago and now I'm pregnant again.

Worried that this pregnancy may end up the same way as I had been spotting and my hcg wasn't doubling as it should although it's still raised.

On the 23/4 my hcg level was 453
Today (26/4) my level is at 768. So still rising, but not doubling.

I have an appointment for a scan on Monday morning at the EPAS clinic at my hospital and hoping to see something by then. I should be around 5w5d today.

My symptoms come & go so I'm so scared.

Hurry up Monday!

:hug: hun. I wish you werent in this horrible limbo

Purple pixie it's awful and I hope you have a busy weekend to keep your mind off things good luck

Every time I go to the bathroom (no 2s) I seem to spot after. Is that normal? Or does it mean another mc? Sorry tmi guys x

It could just be from straining a bit. Especially if you're constipated. The blood vessels in/ around your cervix are very delicate at the moment and its easy to cause little bleeds. Lots of people have spotting/bleeds after sex for this reason its not unreasonable to think a BM could do the same.

Pfft, TMI? This is a pregnancy forum, all of pregnancy is "TMI" lol

Whatever it is it's bothering me and it's hubby and my wedding anniversary tomorrow. I don't want to do this alone... Hubby is away

Hes away for your anniversary? Thats rough hun, esp considering what you're going through ATM. Is it for work? I assume its unnavoidable.
How long is he gone for? Hope hes back in time for your scan on Monday and your weekend is very uneventful. :hug:

He will be home late Tuesday night. He's working yes. Scan on Monday. I doubt it'll show much though.

:( can someone else go with you? I hate to think of you doing this all alone - unless you want to of course.

I am going into the ultrasound alone while my mum and DD sit out side in the waiting area.

:hug: Ill be thinking of you and holding your hand in spirit.
