Hey everyone!
Awww congrats @Flatwhite32 and @BlueeSpottyTiger wishing you all the best for your pregnancies.
No gender here but a big belly with a very kicky baby! And boyfriend starting to feel them too, felt so bad at first when he'd have his hand on me and I'de say "can you feel that?" And he was like "noppee Sad"
Still suffering with HG but kind of gotten used to the daily vommiting to be honest!

Anyone having the glucose tolerance test? My dad has diabetes so I've been refered for the test eurghhhh!! Fingers crossed no gestational diabetes!

Thank you so much @NellWilsonsWhiteHair, @hometownunicorn, @scottishem, @OrangeCloud18 @Scoobygang7 and @GiveMeTheTeaAndNobodyGetsHurt. Smile

Absolutely terrified, but feeling very grateful it happened so quickly again for us. We really are very lucky.

BeckleinDisguise · 22/11/2017 16:14

flatwhite32 and bluespottytiger - so so pleased for you guys!

Flatwhite32 · 22/11/2017 18:34

Thank you so much @BeckleinDisguise. I am so scared! Had a bad day today with the anxiety. I don't know what to do, as only DH, me and my GP know, so I feel I can't talk to anyone about the anxiety.

BeckleinDisguise · 26/11/2017 13:36

The anxiety is not fun flatwhite and the only way to get through it is a bit at a time. Set yourself milestones to move past - the smaller the better in the early stages. That’s the only way I got through it!

Flatwhite32 · 27/11/2017 17:45

Looks like I'm miscarrying again at 6 weeks. Got bleeding which stopped but is now getting worse. Am so scared as I didn't MC naturally last time.

mummymathsteacher · 27/11/2017 17:53

Oh flatwhite! Hoping and praying things work out for you. Life really isn't fair.

Flatwhite32 · 27/11/2017 18:19

It really isn't @mummymathsteacher. SadThis will be my 2nd MC in just over 3 months. It's looking very likely to be a MC now...

mummymathsteacher · 27/11/2017 18:21

Have you got someone with you? I wish there was something we could do to help. I can't imagine how hard this is for you.

scottishem · 27/11/2017 18:23

@Flatwhite32 sending you a hand hold and all the love in the world right now Thanks

Flatwhite32 · 27/11/2017 19:00

My husband, who feels just as broken as me. The NHS won't test until you've had MCs in a row, so yet again I won't get any answers. Thank you ladies for being so kind. Xx

FuzzyOwl · 27/11/2017 19:01

Oh Flatwhite sending you lots of love. Although bleeding can mean a miscarriage, lots of women do bleed for various other reasons and go on to have healthy babies. Thinking of you.

Oh flatwhite Sad another handhold here Flowers

Flatwhite32 · 28/11/2017 14:54

Thank you so much lovely ladies. My fab GP has arranged an appointment for me tomorrow morning at the EPU. At least I'll know then whether it's good or bad. It's the uncertainty I hate. It's the same ward I was in when I had my ERPC done for my MMC in August, so it'll be a difficult day regardless. Thank you so much for your support. I'll let you know how I get on. Treasure those precious buns of yours. Xxx

Scoobygang7 · 28/11/2017 15:44

Aww @Flatwhite32 hand hold and fingers crossed for you here xx

Flatwhite32 · 29/11/2017 15:51

Scan inconclusive. I'm 6+2 based on LMP, but they could only see a gestational sac and yolk sac which dated 5 and a half weeks. I ovulated on CD 16/17 instead of 14 , but we didn't DTD after ovulation, so I know it can't have been later than that. Got another scan in 12 days. I'm preparing for the worst.

FuzzyOwl · 29/11/2017 16:34

Probably best to prepare for the worst but don’t forget that the sonograoher is measuring in fractions of mm and baby position, late implantation, human error, baby size etc all play a huge part.

I agree with @FuzzyOwl @Flatwhite32 also remember sperm can live in you for up to 7 days I think it is. Fingers crossed all is actually well ThanksThanks

Flatwhite32 · 29/11/2017 19:59

It's just so unfair. Some people sail through pregnancy, but I just can't seem to hold on to my babies. It's heartbreaking.
