Pregnant after MC due December 14

[Penguin13]

If you're pregnant after a previous MC and due in December 14 this is the thread for you.

If you're an obsessive knicker-checker or just want someone to chat to who knows where you're coming from you'll fit right in.

Dotty, I will try to follow your advice. I am not very good at being pushy, but if it's the only way of being taken seriously by my GP, I will do my best tomorrow. Basgetti, I hope you manage to get a scan referral from your MW. Your story of your previous MMC sounds very similar to mine. I really understand that just waiting for the 12wks scan is not an option for us if we want to keep our sanity.

As basgetti and Dotty, I am still completely symptom free, so really not optimistic about the outcome of this pregnancy.

Annie, have you had any more bleeding? Have you called your EPU? Really hope it's only some remaining implantation bleeding or something like that and nothing serious.

Xkat I so understand your feeling of worrying to get bad news in your scan. But if your hormons levels are good, try to stay optimistic.

I had a scan at 9am and they saw a sac at 8w 5d but they couldn't see anything inside so it was 'inconclusive'. I am so devastated. They said come back in two weeks but I know. If they can't see it, there's nothing there. Thank you ladies. I will wait for mc to start. Still no bleeding or cramps only brown discharge last night. It's so cruel because I have the symptoms. I have no hope left. so so sad. x

Oh annie I'm so sorry. x

Annie I am so so sorry I hope you and your partner have lots of support. Take good care of yourself and each other.

Oh Annie... So sorry to hear that.
We've all been there so we know how you are feeling. Take good care of yourself. Hope you have friends and family to support you.

So terribly sorry to hear your news Annie. Please look after yourself. x

So so sorry Annie. It is utterly devastating. Take care if yourself x

I am so so sorry Annie, it is the most horrendous thing to go through. Look after yourself.

Thank you so much lovely ladies. My hubby's been home to see me and now my mum's here and my wee doggy for cuddles so I'll be fine. Wishing you all the best for your pregnancies. It's just nature and best that it's earlier rather than later. xxxxx

Oh Annie, I'm so sorry. Take care of yourself and take it easy. Thinking of you x

So sorry for your loss Anne, glad you've got someone (and somedog!) to give you hugs today. Xx

Scan went well here, pushed back two days but all good.

I'm so sorry Annie. Thinking of you

Glad your scan went well Funkes. How many weeks are you now? Am trying and mostly failing to distract myself from tonight by immersing myself in JustGiving reports but the time is seriously dragging. Half a day down, half to go.

I'm glad you have loving people around you to support you and give you hug Annie.

7 weeks, ds2 was born at 37+5, so hoping this one follow suit and I've only got 30 more weeks of this.

penguin, I've put a few games in my phone so when I feel negative I go and play a quiz or whatever to distract myself, not great advice f you're at work but good for late night!

If any of you were wondering what happened to LaceyLee who disappeared from the thread shortly after her scan date, I thought you might like to know that she ended up postponing her scan for a week or so but had the scan a couple of days ago. Everything looked great and there was a heartbeat. She decided to step back from mn for a bit but was happy for me to update you all and let you know that she and bean are doing okay.

Thanks for letting us know penguin, I had noticed her absence. Good luck for later btw.

Good news on the scans strawbs and covent.

I managed about three days off before I came back, but I think my anxiety levels are going back up again a bit, so might take another break over the weekend. We are off to rural with about 20 old friends to celebrate a 40th birthday, it's going to be a nightmare trying to disguise my teetotalism, but I really don't want to announce it yet. MrPres is going to have to chug both glasses I think!

I've started getting cramps today

I have spoken to the midwife who said thats not uncommon, but I've been offered a scan at the EPU tomorrow morning so at least I will find out one way or another. Very anxious now.

Basgetti I have everything crossed for you for tomorrow. It's great that they're giving you a scan. Hopefully everything will be fine and it will put your mind at rest.

Hope MrPres is up to the challenge! The alternative is drinking lots of 'could have alcohol in if you didn't know better' type drinks. Depends what your usual tipple is though - sharing a bottle of wine is harder to fake!

Just about to meet H to drive to the scan clinic for 7. Starting to feel sick with nerves.

Thanks Penguin, I hope your scan goes well x

Thanks for the update on Lacey, I've been thinking about her.

Good luck for your scan penguin.

I'm still so jealous that I haven't a scan date! Roll on Tuesday when I should get one at my booking in appointment!!

President could you not have a dental abscess / water infection that requires strong antibiotics so no drinking?!!

Relieved and overjoyed that the scan was all fine. We got to see and hear the heartbeat and I'm measuring bang on 8+5 and from my calculations I should be 8+6. So relieved

Great news for lacey & penguin! So glad after that long old wait today everything was fine (& you didn't have to drink more water an wait or anything)

pres, you almost didn't come out to celebrate friends birthday as you're feeling so rough so don't want to wake up with a banging hangover too? I use the I'm so tired, damn children! excuse.

Fantastic news penguin! Congratulations x

Congratulations Penguin, that's great news x
