broughthimround - fingers crossed for today. Deep, deep breaths. Keep remembering your gorgeous children were born there :)

Dropping ds off at pres school and then sneaking off to bed for an hour or so. He's woken up the past 2 nights and I can't get back to sleep afterwards so am exhausted!

NurseSunshine · 04/11/2010 12:26

So sorry to hear your news star.

Good luck today Broughthimround, thinking of you.

cep · 04/11/2010 12:36

good luck broughthimround.

Tabitha - i've sort of told my DS 2.5yo but i don't think he really understands, but i'm not going to reiterate it until later in the pregnancy.

knackered - it's a rare night my son doesn't wake us up at some point during the night, i'm actually considering taking him to the dr for some advice i don't know who else to take him to.

speaking of whom i need to go get him now so no chance to catch up this afternoon. Poor boy is spending so much time in front of the telly i just don't have the energy.

Well I got myself into a tiss there didn't I!
Only had a little bit today so far and no cramps. Had hcg test today , results back tomorrow lunchtime. Scan booked for tuesday. Thanks so much for all the support. x x x

NurseSunshine · 04/11/2010 13:15

I'm sure you're fine broughthimround, of course you're going to worry though :)

Star82 · 04/11/2010 13:23

Thanks super.
Just read through and helps a lot. I had no idea the sac would keep growing. I thought that if i miscarry a 6 week old fetus, it will be the same whether it happens at 6 weeks or if i wait and it doesn't happen until 12 weeks. Definately something to consider.
Does medical management mean you do it in hospital and they start you off in some respect?

Thanks everyone. You've been so much help. Will try to keep off this board now and just let you know how things go saturday as it's not nice to read about things going wrong for the rest of you girls :)

takethatlady · 04/11/2010 13:30

Oh star that's really sweet of you but don't worry about that. What's a thread for if not for people to ask for help :)

Really really good luck for Saturday. I hope it turns out to be good news, and I hope that even if it doesn't you've got lots of people around you to look after you.

sasamaxx · 04/11/2010 13:33

broughthimroundtotheidea - so sorry about your brother. Good luck with your result tomorrow Smile

wolfcubEm83 · 04/11/2010 13:54

Oooh ladies, help needed!

I went to see her last week to confirm the pg and i mentioned that i had a bit of bleeding and cramping, she didnt seem concerned so i wasnt worried. Ive just had a call off her and shes just informed me that normally pg are managed by the GPs and consultants as a team approach (like she said at the appt) but she is referring me to the hospital to be dealt with. Um.....i was so shocked i didnt think to ask why and just agreed what hospital i wanted to be seen at. Blush Has that happened to anyone else?

I have had problems with my cervix after lots of biopsies due to abnormalities (my mom had cervical cancer at 32 so im screened yearly) so im hoping its due to that. Maybe i'll have to have one of those stitches ive seen discussed on here Confused

Im seeing the mw on wednsday so ill ask her, my OH is telling me to stop worrying but i cant help but wonder.
Does the GP organise the scans or the mw?
Im sorry, at 27 i should be more clued up but im so not!
Thanks - sorry its long

wolfcubEm83 · 04/11/2010 13:55

By her i mean my GP - sorry

cep · 04/11/2010 14:27

wolfcub - sorry i've not been referred to hospital before, i was seen regularly by the consultant last time (well regularly is probably a bit to much, overseen by/saw 2-3 times rather than just the once) but that was due to my being so over weight.

If you're really worried about it why don't you try calling the gp or mw to ask.

i assume it's the mw who books the scan as she asked me if i wanted to have it done. (why wouldn't i want a chance to see my baby???)

first saw her 2 weeks ago and not heard anything yet, assume i'll hear nearer my 12 week point.

If it's your first pregnancy your not going to be clued up on any of it regardless of your age, so don't worry.

not sure if i should change how many weeks i am due to the result of the scan. do i still count it from lmp or from the date shown on scan???

wolfcubEm83 · 04/11/2010 15:35

Thanks cep for your reply. I was a bit stressed when i posted that and i have calmed down now and realised that any normal person would just ring the GP back and ask for clarification!! i officially have 'pregnancy brain' (thats my excuse and im sticking to it)

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 04/11/2010 16:00

Cep the professionals are going to go with the scan date, no matter if it agrees with what you think the date is. Apparently it's impossible for a female to be that in touch with her body!
According to DS's scan he was an immaculate conception!

WolfCub pregnancy brain is great isn't it?! Grin Hope you get the clarification you need.

Hope everyone else is hanging in there.

clench234 · 04/11/2010 16:17

Really sorry to hear what you're going through Star, please don't feel like you have to keep away, this is a support thread for everyone for good and bad experiences and generally you need more support for the bad :-(
I am getting myself in a tis about telling people. I am only 8+4 but have 2 big issues.
1st is that my midwife appts are now held at my local family centre so when I went for my first appt today I bumped into 3 people who work there who know me and my nanny and who now know I am pg, I now feel like I have to tell my nanny as I would feel awful if one of them accidentally said something. Also feels wrong that they know.
2nd. Work is v stressful at the moment and I am in the process of trying to address someone's poor performance. I have done this once before and it was v v stressful. I really want to tell my manager and hand over the process to someone else but realistically there's still a chance something could go wrong and I will have handed over an important part of my job for no reason, also inevitably I will end up having to tell people at work earlier than I planned if my manager knows.
Phew. Anyway, feels good to at least get it all out. Now off to learn some relaxation techniques.......

IssyStark · 04/11/2010 16:52

star medical management in the UK is usually started off in hospital and usually you can be readmitted quickly if you find the mc too painful to cope with at home. I tried medical management for my second m/c as it was Xmas and the surgical lists were full so I thought medical would be quicker, unfortunately for me it wasn't but it works for about 80% of patients.

If you feel up to it, this is my medicial mc story:

catherineps · 04/11/2010 17:35

Hello! Glad to find you all again!

Fingers crossed for you broughthimaround.

Clarkiee I am going to take your advice - we have parents evening a week on Monday from 1 till 7pm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hello to everyone else too :)

Clarkiee · 04/11/2010 17:55

Going to have to put some 'wine drinking' related status on facebook because I've had two incidents of people asking friends if I'm pregnant or not- grrrr.
Had one friend asking my other friend why I was drinking water, was I pregnant (wouldn't mind but it was lemonade and lime)- (already had a moan about that on here).
And tonight a group of four people asked my colleage if I was pregnant (shes knows but didn't spill). Apparently I was going to lift a box and another colleague did it for me!!?! I don't even remember this, plus I've not stopped lifting things anyway.
I hate thinking that people are talking about me and putting my friends in awkward positions. If I wanted to tell you I'd tell you!!!!!! Nosey gits! Angry

p.s also wondering why else my colleagues think I'm pregnant do I look rough or a bit fat Grin

Clarkiee · 04/11/2010 17:56

oh and parents evening was great so I recommend it catherineps

petitech · 04/11/2010 18:11

Hello on new thread, having private scan on sunday and wedding anniv tomorrow so happier camper here in spite of continued sickness and lower back pain...

misshoohaa · 04/11/2010 18:46

Hi clarkee same for me today, one of my work friends was apparently speculating across the office whether I was pregnant. Whilst my boss was there too, who I'm not expecting to be particularly thrilled.
So annoying and I'm going to say something to her when I do announce it. It's not like I particularly want it to be a secret it's more a case of not wanting to retract the good news should something go amiss.
I think it's pretty childish for people not to respect the reason we're not spurting our news just yet!

Anyway MS is starting to fade, phew!

9+2 today - woohoo!!

petitech good luck with your scan!

VeryHungryKatypillar · 04/11/2010 19:36

Ah hah, found you all!

I've been keeping quiet, but keeping and eye on the thread(s). Most bizarre sympton so far was colostrum leakage last night... I had this last time but not until the last trimester.. surely this is a bit early?

And unfortunately I am now bleeding a little. GP has been great and I have a scan at EPU on Tuesday, so we can hold hands broughthimround . I feel sad and a little pre-menstrual, which I don't think is a great sign, but trying to keep positive and knowing that so many of us are going through this uncertainty and some coming out of it the other side is helping....

Want2bSupermum · 04/11/2010 20:31

Hello - finally found the new thread!

Clarkiee · 04/11/2010 20:42

same with me misshoohaa don't want to have to retract the 'I'm pregnant' statement. Had a winge to my mum and she told me, in a round about way, to get over it- they are probably bored and its something different to talk about. I like the people that were chatting about it so am thinking now it's harmless enough (still bugs me a bit though). Annoying that yours said it when the boss was around Shock. I've got another 2 weeks to go till my scan so hope nobody asks me outright in the meantime.

katypillar what is a colostrum leakage- doesn't sound good Hmm. Hope your scan goes well on Tuesday x

knackered76 · 04/11/2010 20:44

katypillar - try not to worry too much, I know that's easier said then done. Fill your weekend up and tuesday will be here before you know it!

Was a bit concerned about my symptoms easing off but have just cried at the t-mobile advert shot at heathrow . . . . maybe those hormones are intact afterall Grin. By the way it's great if you haven't seen it
