To ask for a handhold I feel so alone

I'm due to have a 6/7 week scan tomorrow after multiple miscarriages (double figures) and I've got period like cramps and bleeding.

I've been bleeding on and off for 2 weeks, no clots.

I feel so alone and I just want to cancel my scan in the morning. Time and time again I've sat in that waiting area, I've had to listen to the "I'm sorry" words, I've had to sit in the family room with a useless leaflet about miscarriage and a box of tissues.

I'm not religious but I could really do with some positive thoughts being put out there for me tonight, I'm not sure I can endure another loss 😢

Good luck for tomorrow OP! I’ll say it’s a boy, the head shape looks similar to how ours looked on the 12 week scan and I had a little boy in August Smile

I'm going to stick with my original thought, I think a little boy.
I know you'll be happy, either way and so will we.
I found it was easier to know the gender when pregnant because I wasn't too keen on some unisex clothes. Of course as DS got older the styles improved massively haha. If I ever had another I know I would just be too impatient though, I need to know.

I'm going with boy too. So excited for you to find out!

Booklover3 · 06/12/2022 17:25

Hoping all turns out well for you.

elm26 · 06/12/2022 17:30

Thank you! 🥰

I really don't mind either way, I'm just excited to finally be a Mum.

We've been buying white, grey and cream so will be nice to add a splash of colour although I'm not going mad with the buying until after my 20 week scan.

So excited to find out!

Just saw this thread and wanted to say congratulations and thank you for showing your scan pictures. That hand 🥰. I have been where you are and remember the fear. My 2 are now 13 & 15 I just love seeing scan pictures.

I'm a lurker on your post and have been waiting for an update and so relieved that the reason you've not updated is because you rescheduled. I'm a bit over invested lol.

Just wishing you all the luck in the world ❤️
