brendina - its scary how similar our situations are! i would love to follow along with you and the other lovely ladies during this journey, whether the outcome is good or bad, im still vomiting every morning but im trying to stay positive im now nervous maybe i have a molar pregnancy as it says it can make you very sick im just stressing i think! i have gp appointment on friday to book a scan for 19 weeks im too nervous to go before then!
I completely agree and would love to follow along with you all because we are all in similar situations & I'm sure you'll all agree that it's so comforting to talk with people who are going thro similar experiences & who completely understand how hard it is to be positive after miscarriage
Well I have a booking-in appointment this afternoon at 2,30 with my midwife which will really be the first time I've seen anyone in the medical profession regarding my pregnancy apart from my doctor 6 wks ago! I'm now 15 wks & 1 day and I have been told that I will not be scanned this afternoon - apparently they don't have the equipment in on a Tuesday (I didn't even ask what that was all about!!!)
In a way though, I don't want them examining me coz I'm so scared they'll crush all my deams by telling me bad news again even tho I've got a nice big bump already (everyone has commented on it & a few folk think I'm having twins!)
Will let you know how I get on but I don't think they'll be doing anything other than taking blood tests etc - I'm still so nervous even tho they're not scanning me - can you believe that!?!?
how are you all going? been very quiet in here! i got to hear the HB on doppler with GP but dont have a scan until 20 weeks, i have no bump yet but im not concerned as bubs has plenty of room as im not very short, i do have that dark line under my belly button and felt a few flutters on the left side mostly and still vomiting an my nipples are killing me and leaking so all good signs i just want to get halfway!!!! hope all is well!
I had a doctor's appointment Tuesday and got to hear the heart beat. Everything was normal. I feel much better now, but will be even better when I can start feeling the baby kick. We have told my parents and my former boss and that is about it. I will have to tell the church soon, though, because I can no longer hide my big bump!
My former boss asked me if I was having twins. I don't think I am that big, but I have definitely popped sooner than I did the first time around.
Anyway, I will keep in touch and look forward to hearing everyone else's good news as it comes in.
This is the 1st time I've had a chance to write about my experience. Well I went for my appointment on 24th March thinking I was just going for a "booking in" appointment at the local clinic with my midwife. As soon as I told her that I believed I was roughly 15 wks along and hadn't been scanned, she couldn't believe it & arranged for me to go straight to the hospital for a scan! I was sooo petrified the whole way there & was crying - luckily my DP was with me & had to practically force me into the scan room - I refused to get money for scan pics coz I thought there would be nothing there again!
Well we were absolutely delighted to be told that our baby is absolutely fine & was jumping around like mad!!! As soon as the sonographer put the doppler thing on my tummy, she announced right away that I could relax because the babys heartbeat was going strong - I actually squealed with joy - she could hardly scan me I was laughing & crying all at the same time!!! She also told us to our surprise that the baby was measuring 16 wks - couldn't believe it
I am now 18.5 wks and feel the baby moving about all the time - I am sooo delighted and so is my DP - I was convinced I was going to be told it was just another miscarriage but I am delighted & have been walking on a cloud ever since that day! I pray for good news like this for every single woman on this forum - there is nothing in the world quite like the relief and sheer joy of a viable pregnancy after miscarriage - I will never forget my experience!!!
Congratulations! It too was very hard for me to be calm when I saw my baby and the hearbeat on my first ultrasound! It is so scary to have the ultrasound but I know you felt soooo much better after seeing your baby!
yay im so glad for everyone! i have my scan in 2 weeks the first one! im very nervous as im not showing and feel no movement at 18 weeks i have no pain or bleeding though and heard the heartbeat at 15 weeks and still vomit often so i have to stay positive! im sooooooo scared!
