Pretty self explanatory! I'm interested to see whether anyone has the same weird quirk that I do!
I have a particularly thick/dark hair just below my belly button. Pretty normal, I think everyone has these random sturdy long hairs. But when I am pregnant I get a second one just next to my usual one. It only appears when the pregnancy is going ok though.
I've been pregnant three times:
- Miscarriage. I had a positive scan at 7 weeks after some bleeding - saw the heartbeat and everything. Hair going strong. I had another scan at 8 weeks and by then the hair was looking kind of withered and weak. The baby had no heartbeat and I started to miscarry the day after.
- My daughter. Hair was there the whole way through. I didn't notice when it disappeared.
- Missed miscarriage. I had a positive test but the second hair never appeared. Diagnosed with a blighted ovum miscarriage at 6 weeks. At 8 weeks the Dr thought she could see a very small baby but one week later it hadn't grown and there was never a heartbeat.
Does anyone else have anything like this? I feel like it must be hormonal but it's so weird! I'm TTC at the moment and find myself looking for that second hair in the two week wait 🤣
