Just because I think we’re getting close to filling the first one. Pull up a pew, bring your decaf tea and all of the carbs!

5fivestar an't say I have. Just craved chocolate and so consumed a whole big Fruit & Nut bar to myself on way to work Blush

Trying to not freak out. Just had the most awful stomach pain I've experienced since labour. Oh god it was awful. keeled me over at my desk and nearly made me cry. Only lasted for about 30 seconds max but now I have really low drawing sensation. really worried it is something bad.

Frazzlerock I am so sorry you are having a horrible gut feeling Sad have a lovely weekend and I realyl hope we see you back here with good news tuesday afternoon xx

DartmoorDoughnut · 16/11/2018 09:05

@Frazzlerock if it helps at all I had zero symptoms with my first two pregnancies bar metallic taste in mouth early on that disappeared after about a week I think Flowers

KinCat · 16/11/2018 09:06

TwittleBee I've never been in labour so can't compare but I had awful stomach cramps the other day, like doubled over in pain, then shortly afterwards I had really bad diarrhoea. Hope it's just something like that for you.

TwittleBee · 16/11/2018 09:08

KinCat I hope so! Doesn't help I have bowel issues anyway, could certainly be that making all this pain worse and my mind is seeing it as soemthing sinister for the baby

KinCat · 16/11/2018 09:10

Yeah, I can't imagine ever not worrying with something like that.

itsallgreek · 16/11/2018 09:35

@5fivestar sorry to say that I'm the complete opposite I have uncontrollable hunger....

@Frazzlerock I'm sorry you feel that way and if its better for you to take a break then do so. I can't say I've got very strong symptoms. Hunger, sleepiness, and sore boobs but those come and go... Try not to worry yo much, have a nice relaxing weekend and good luck for Tuesday, fingers & ties crossed for you

Went to the gp hoping for some reassurance but she just said, it's too soon to scan (I said I think I'm about 5 wks) and too early for any symptoms to suggest an ectopic, but just need to monitor me. Feel a bit deflated. Filled in another midwife referral form in the hope they might contact me!

Hi Ladies, I had another scan this morning and unfortunately they were able to confirm that I have miscarried.
For those of you interested in measurements the gestational sac had grown to 18mm from 13mm, but there was no change in the Fetal pole, if anything it had got smaller (3.7mm last week to 3.2mm this week). And also no heartbeat. 😥

Kentishgal · 16/11/2018 10:58

Rose68 I'm so sorry to hear that, really sad news, I hope you're ok - sending you best wishes.

Also sorry you are feeling rubbish @Frazzlerock and I hope everything goes ok for your next scan.
@twittlebee I hope you are ok. I have had cramps the last two days but not that painful. I hope it eases and all is ok.

BettySwoll0cks · 16/11/2018 11:46

I just poas again 🙄 can't seem to help myself

Twistering · 16/11/2018 11:51

@Rose68 I know there’s nothing anyone can say, but I’m so sorry. It is an unbelievably shit thing to happen. Thinking of you and hope you’ve got loads of support xx

@Frazzlerock Sorry you feel like that. I think a lot of us are a bag of nerves, this time is shit and dragging. I know I saw a heartbeat but only made me feel better for about a day (I know first hand doesn’t guarantee anything even in later weeks). So try and have a great weekend, forget about it all and boogie like crazy!! Look forward to hearing about after Tues :)

itsallgreek · 16/11/2018 11:52

@rose68 I'm so sorry.. Sending hugs and I wish you all the best Flowers
