Hello,
Me and Wasabipeanut thought a specific thread for people in our boat may be nice- as lovely as the knicker checkers thread is and great support but a lot of the lovely knicker checkers are past the evil first trimester and for those of us that have just found out we are pregnant again post MC we thought it might be nice for us to have a sub lounge to huddle in and support each other in these very early stages where in a way we are still in denial about this pregnancy!

We don't have to post due dates or anything scary like that, just more a place to wobble with people going through it at same time.

So I will be only 4 weeks tommorrow and 40 days ago tommorrow I had an MMC at 10 weeks but emby died at 6/7 weeks. So am going to be petrified basically for at least the next 8 weeks and would love some handholding- especially as this time I am not telling anybody except DH and best mate. Parents need not know.

Hi. I think I am about 6 weeks gone and started light spotting two weeks ago (never red or heavy, just light brownish). I went to the GP and got an early ultrasound. We saw a gestational sac that was pretty small and they couldn't accurately date it or commit whether it was ok one way or the other. They told me to come back in two weeks for another ultrasound. The scan is on Wednesday. I have carried on the same light brownish spotting in the same way every now and then, but am having good preg symptoms like bigger boobs, smelling more, a bit of nausea, bloating etc. Have also been doing about 2 pregnancy tests a day which are still positive. Has anyone got any thoughts/advice?? I am so worried - we've been trying for 1 1/2 years and I thought this is it, but it still seems so uncertain . . . .

OOooooh - it's very quiet in here! Is everyone still around? I've got another gynae appointment today - I should be 8+3, and am starting to panic that it's going to be bad news like last time.

How's everyone else doing?

7 weeks tomorrow

Booking appointment with midwife next Wednesday when I'll be 8 weeks, should I ask her if I can get an early scan do you think, or should I just wait?

Hi, I'm new here. Just tested this morning! and got a BFP. Not quite 4 weeks as I have a 26 day cycle, so I'm 3 weeks and 5 days! Have one DS aged 3 and 3 months, and have previously had a mmc at 10wks 2days, so I'm not getting my hopes up too far just yet.

Cor this thread dropped off for a bit time for a ressurection I think.

How is everyone? How are our lovely new ladies doing?

How is everyone today?
I am 6+1 today so starting to feel a little more confident...

MC was at 6 and a half weeks so not out of the woods yet by any means but somehow it all feels better this time, it's hard to explain.

Hi BottySpottom congratulations on your bfp. Fingers crossed for a sticky little bean for you. Nothing wrong with older mums, just wish the docs/medical profession would agree with me!
