Congrats @under, exciting To see heartbeats I imagine, but yes, a long and nerve wracking journey ahead. Stay away from google for now and enjoy letting the amazing news sink in.

hometownunicorn · 06/03/2017 13:35

I'm out. I started spotting last week which progressed to miscarrying on Saturday, confirmed by a scan this morning. Pretty rubbish, but I'm trying to see it as one of those things, and focus on moving forward now. Weirdly I think my dog knew first as he's been really strange with me the last few days, having been cuddly since I got my bfp.

Good luck to everyone else waiting on scans, I hope your news is better than mine. And I hope you all have lovely healthy babies in October Smile

Tigger83 · 06/03/2017 13:56

Under wow what a shock, try not to google too much and have plenty of rest when you need it! *

Unicorn* I'm so sorry x

UndersecretaryofWhimsy · 06/03/2017 14:11

hometown I am so sorry for your loss.

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 06/03/2017 14:27

Unicorn sorry for your loss.

Whimsy hope things go ok, risky twins sounds a big shock.

Emvy hope you are ok.

Think I might be offered a new job shortly, I'm 7+1 and dreading telling them. Feels a bit deceitful but I'm not sure anyone would hire me if they knew I was pregnant, there or elsewhere. But I'd definitely want to go back after maternity leave so am hoping it works out ok and they don't hate me forever or find a way to get rid of me (assuming they do hire me lol!)

xxmissbrightsidexx · 06/03/2017 14:31

So sorry for your loss unicorn SadFlowers x

88claire · 06/03/2017 14:31

Wow Congratulations *whimsy

So sorry to hear that hometown. I hope you are holding up ok.

Had the first actual vomit this morning following a huge roast dinner last night. Was also up all night with indigestion! Starting to feel human again now having consumed everything in sight so it seems the answer is not to let my stomach get empty.

Morning sickness is horrible I'm hoping it's over by the end of the first trimester I'm not sure I'll cope with 7 more months!!

My pet budgie was very pleased for the midnight attention anyway.....!

PlayOnWurtz · 06/03/2017 14:32

Sorry to hear of your loss unicorn take care of yourself Flowers

Starfish83 · 06/03/2017 14:34

So very sorry, Hometown x

emvy · 06/03/2017 14:37

Hello my lovely ladies. Unfortunately it wasn't good news at my scan today. It showed no progress from last week and although the second sac was slightly bigger than it was last time, it hadn't grown enough to show it was developing normally. No heartbeat seen from the other embryo. I've been unsure which procedure to have but think I'll be going for surgery and hopefully tomorrow if they get back to me soon. Thank you so much for all your well wishes and support, and your general chit chat about pregnancy stuff - you've helped me get through an incredibly difficult week. I wish you all the absolute best with your little beans and hope you all have healthy bouncing babies come October. I may pop back on to keep an eye on how you're all doing over time! I'm so sorry unicorn that you haven't had a happy outcome either. I am joining you on the "not meant to be" train and looking to the future. loopy, go for the job! They can't get rid of you. You have to do what's right for you! Thanks again everyone Smile

PlayOnWurtz · 06/03/2017 14:39

So sorry to hear that emvy look after yourself Flowers

colourmylife · 06/03/2017 14:59

So sorry emvy you are being incredibly brave. Please take all the time you need x

Starfish83 · 06/03/2017 15:08

So sorry, emvy - take care and am thinking of you x

10storeylovesong · 06/03/2017 15:09

I'm so so sorry to hear your news unicorn and emvy.

under made up you've seen two heartbeats but sorry you sound like you've got a long road ahead. Will you have lots of extra monitoring? Not for the same reason but I do know what it's like to have pregnancy concerns and lots of experience of NICU if you ever have any questions in the future.

Anotherminime · 06/03/2017 15:26

I'm so sorry emvy and unicorn sad news day today.

GreedyDuck · 06/03/2017 15:27

Very sorry to hear your news emvy and unicorn, I was in the very same boat a mere twelve weeks ago and it sucks. Be kind to yourselves.

Keeping everything crossed for a smooth ride for your twinnies undersecretary.

I finally self referred today, I'd been too nervous to as only 6+1 and having to cancel appointments last time was tough. Still ten days until my early scan.

UndersecretaryofWhimsy · 06/03/2017 15:29

Yes will have intensive monitoring if twins are confirmed to be mcma and delivery will be no later than 33 weeks if they are so time in NICU/SCBU is a cert.

For now there's literally nothing I can do bit take one day at a time and see how subsequent scans go but on top of a double dose of nausea and fatigue I feel like I've been hit by a bus. I am grateful to have seen heartbeats but am by no means out of the woods yet. I just have to hope either that we defy the odds or that they find a membrane between the twins and they turn out to be plain old MCDA.

emvy Flowers I am so sorry for your loss and wish you the best.

BrioLover · 06/03/2017 15:30

I'm so sorry emvy and hometown 💐

Tigger83 · 06/03/2017 15:38

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 06/03/2017 15:55

Emvy so sorry, was hoping things would be different.

mummabubs · 06/03/2017 15:57

Sending lots of love to you Emvy Flowers xx

TippetyTapWriter · 06/03/2017 16:00

So sorry emvy and unicorn. Take care of yourselves and fingers crossed for a happier outcome soon xx

Wow undersecretary that does sound like a lot to take in. I knew twins would be more complicated but didn't realise how much. Really hope it all works out. When will they check the membrane?

yellowfrontdoor · 06/03/2017 16:04

Emvy and Unicorn what terrible news, I'm so sorry Flowers
