so sorry for those which have had bad news over the last few days

Sorry for all the losses that people are experiencing. I hope you're all doing as well as you can and that you have the support you need

tiny so sorry such sad news. Thinking of you for this next week. Amazed at your mature attitude you are a strong woman when you must be feeling so much sadness. Xxx

Bubbles, zookeeper and tiny, I'm so so sorry for you all. Really hoping you're surrounded by lots of support. 💐

Thank you moomin for reassurance. As I nearly chucked up my dinner I am now back thinking what an idiot and next time I have a nausea light day I'll just be grateful.

Sounds like your mum was happy for you! You are brave going through it again but I'm sure it will be totally worth it.

A sad day today for many and I'm so sorry to all that have had losses. Stay strong you wonderful women

Oh no Tiny xx

Tinysalmon I am so terribly sorry, after all you have already been through with your other losses and the loss of your DS it seems especially cruel. Holding you in my thoughts.

zookeeper and bubbles - I'm so very sorry also to hear your sad news, it is devastating. I hope you can rest and heal - it's so unfair and painful and I wish that I could make it unhappen.

There was a conversation about skincare way down the thread and I wanted to share that Sudocrem is good for spots if you put it on before bed.

Hope not insensitive to share after everyone's awful news. But I had a scan on Friday and saw a tiny heartbeat. Cried with happiness, it's been such a slog to get here. But it also makes me very aware of how dreadful the news is for those who are not so lucky.

Oh Tiny no 😢 I am so very sorry. After everything you have already been through it just doesn't seem fair. I'll be thinking of you 💐

Tiny, I'm so very sad to see your news. Take care, lovely - am thinking of you.

⭐️ xx

So sad to hear such awful news from bubbles, tinysalmon and zookeeper, thank you for taking the time to update us in what must be such a stressful and sad day for you. Wishing you all the best luck for the future xxx

Oh no tiny I'm so sorry to hear that. Hope you are being well looked after in the real world. And to bubbles and zoo I am thinking of you all tonight.

critter - it's nice to hear some good news on an otherwise pretty sad day

Looking for a bit of reassurance/advice this evening I've had a really crampy sore back and lots of wind I'm already worrying about ectopic due to higher risk do you think I should be concerned? Due to have early scan on 10th

Tiny bubbles and zoo so sorry for you loss x

So sorry for everyone with losses. What a shitty system this seems sometimes. Hope you all get sticky ones soon, take care of yourselves.

tigger try not to worry, severe pain on one side is indicative of ectopic. I'm sure you've Googled the other symptoms so won't list.. but I think general cramping you're probably fine.

critter congratulations lovely to hear that.

Still thinking of everyone else in limbo and those who are out of limbo into something worse.

It is indeed a shitty day

tigger I was also worried about ectopic as have had a crampy left sided pelvic pain and sore back. I went to GP she said might be a UtI and gave me antibiotics. She didn't think it was an ectopic. I think she is right about it not being ectopic but don't think the a UTI either as no nitrites or protein in pee and tbh I think it's just constipation.

If pain gets severe and or you have bleeding then seek some advice but otherwise should be ok to wait for scan. Every niggle feels concerning at this stage I think!

Oh ladies my heart is breaking for those of you with bad news. I am thinking of you all. Better times ahead I know it.xx

Oh Tiny I'm so sorry! Xx

Another one bowing out here I'm afraid. Starting bleeding this evening and now in bed with cramps getting stronger. I knew from the last couple of scans that it probably wasn't going to end well, but I didn't stop hoping for a miracle.
Good luck to all you lovely ladies, here's wishing for no more sad days like today, and happy, healthy pregnancies for everyone who's left x

What a rubbish few days on here

Thinking of everyone who has had bad news

Chintaria

Sending love to you both tiny and chintaria

I'm so sorry to read all the bad news. Only since getting pregnant have I even begun to imagine how hard it must be to have these losses.

Wishing you all recovery, and luck for the near future. X

Feel very strange posting after all of the sad news today but have been reading for a few days and wanted to express how much my heart goes out to all of you. :(

I would like to join the group officially if that's okay. It's my first pregnancy and can't help feeling very anxious and stressed about everything.

I was on what I thought was a low dose of anxiety medication and GP told me to go off it straight away the day I got the BFP. So as a result having all of these pregnancy pains alongside horrific withdrawal.
I don't mean to say this negatively as I am so grateful to be pregnant but this is not how I imagined it would be at all...does anyone else feel this way? :(
have an early scan booked for 15th March and the time is dragging!
