Freak out room for those newly updiffed after mc - Part V

[MummyAbroad]

Just found out you are pregnant after a previous miscarriage? There is plenty of support, hand holding and problem-shared-problem-halved going on over here. All welcome to join in.

yarnie my symptoms totally disappeared at 9 weeks and I feared the worst, but after a scan showed all was well, my symptoms came back. Not as bad as they had been, but they came back. Try not to worry too much.

chuffed to bits for dachs and yay for onions nuchal results (very jealous, I wish I had mine out of the way!). Get better soon.

Great news about mummya's job.

harassed glad that you are feeling better today. it's tough this pregnancy lark!

Enjoy the wedding everyone. I have just gone bananas in the M&S food hall - looking forward to our party!

Quick post. Just home. Seen the heart beat and measurements match my dates. Hugely relieved. I don't think I'd ever been more nervous in my life.

Have also been to tell my parents the good news, and, typically, my mum had already guessed! My Dad is made up. .

Will add myself to the list when I've calmed down a bit.

yay BlackKat yay!

nice one blackkat here is the updated list to add yourself in to!

welcome yarnie I think we have all suffered from that anxiety - there's no real cure but to get through it anyway you can and remember that the stats are on your side

Hi!

blackkat thanks for the kick up the bum about work- i think i'm still in denial that this will really work out this time. Some people at work know now and have also given me big arse kicks! Good luck with the scan tomorrow x

wombat great news. It must be so exciting finding out the sex of little wombatbean. You are also right about work. I consider myself told! for being a muppet. Even my boss said 'this is just a job-your health is more important!'

mummya congrats on the new job, i'm sure it'll all work out great.

harrassed hi and congrats if i didn't say it on the other thread-it's nervewracking starting again isn't it. I can't believe i've made it past my danger day to 6 weeks!

Managed to get to the docs yesterday and she gave me antibiotics cos she thought i'd probably be better knowing i was getting rid of the problem after last time.

Have felt pretty sick for the last two days. Only seem to stop feeling sick if i'm eating! Is this normal and if it is- how the hell do i not end up quadrupling in size in the first 12 weeks?! [cconfused]

Yarnie - I mcd 2 years ago at apparently 5+6 but symptoms only showed at 10 weeks. I have ds aged 4. I am now pg with twins and had very few symptoms at all apart from the ones you mentioned above until week 10 when we moved house which was completely exhausting. It then seemed to improve and then I started really vomiting about a week later and it got much worse. I can't tell you definitively one way or another that it will be ok but because of miscarrying every symptom or lack thereof that you would have formerly overlooked will seem significant to you whether it is or isn't. I hope the scan yields good results and temporarily sets your mind at rest.

Just redoing the list as my scan date changed.

Don't know how i managed to miss the last day of the thread!

congrats blackkat seeing the heartbeat must be such relief.

dachs and onions fab news

So sorry if i've missed anyone else

Quick msg on way to bed...

Yay!!! for blackkat's scan and onions' NT results!!

Hope you're all well, night night x

Thrilled for you blackkat - what great news and I know what you mean about the relief - my knees nearly buckled when I stepped off the couch!

Interesting pink about your nkc and glad to hear that was the last one. Did you get a cheeky scan too?

I'm the same as you minnie with the eating to stop myself feeling sick and have been worried too about the weight gain. I do find I only need something small to tide me over and fruit seems to work for me.... can't get enough oranges right now.

Waves to all in a regal fashion - enjoy the nuptials - I'm sooooo excited!

Minnie I had the same thing-hadto eat constantly but unlike some of these healthy girls it wasn't fruit but complete junk that I wouldn't normally touch like crisps and scotch pancakes and cake and sweets. Weirdly I lost a little bit of weight in the first trimester. I was initally confused but I think what happened is that although it was junk I wasn't really eating much of it, just grazing so overall was prob eating less than normal. Have you tried tinned pears? They worked a treat for me, felt comforting to eat and didn't make me want to puke.

wiw I did gets cheeky scan! :D their scanners aren't really designed for pregnancy scans though so not good enough to see what flavour booooooo. Pink bean was being very sweet though so all good. I dint think I was bothered about knowing the flavour but now the NHS have told me they WON'T say, I've got the hell in and am desperate to know!!!

Enjoy today and the lovely long weekend nice people xxxx

blackat Yay for a great scan! Add yourself to that list now! :)

Yarnie I am having coming and going symptoms too and I am 9 1/2 weeks now. One minute I feel ok and the next I am really sick. Try not to worry (she says, worrying).

Question: I drink about 1L of water a day (apx), and keep it down. BUT I only wee twice a day and it is VERY yellow and strong smelling. Should I phone the dr about trying to go in for some fluids? I would drink more but I am too nauseated despite the pills.

Banana I'm about the same. Drinking loads and weeing hardly at all, just dribbles. The doctor will only say drink more, you're dehydrated. I think you just need lots of water in pregnancy. I'm not worried about it.

Wombat I'm ridiculously excited by the Royal Wedding, it has completely taken me by surprise because I'm normally a cynical old boot. Is it pregnancy hormones?

Yay for blackkat scan and onions NT results. Sorry about the dav tho!

Hello yarnie try not to worry, as others have said sometimes symptoms come and go.

Our friends have lent us their Doppler I've had a good listen to a lovely hb this morning :)

I didn't want to watch the royal wedding but I'm quite enjoying it now dh has put it on

blackkat and onions yay so pleased for you.

Thanks everyone!

Onions so sorry not to reply yesterday, good news on NT results!

Banana my pee is yellow too however much I drink, I'm blaming the multivits I'm taking. I'd see the GP only if it's burny and UTIish!

Yarnie symptoms coming and going is absolutely normal - though stressful. So sorry to hear of your loss last year

Minnie, I'm on tinned peaches (as pudding after my potato waffles!)

to everyone else and leaves wedding cake, choose from the three tiers, chocolate sponge, carrot or fruit cake! [cgrin]

Babe don't get The Fear. Sit down and eat your cake properly or you'll get indigestion.

I have sore boobs today, so thought I might show my face. There's a lot of cake in here isn't there? I love cake.

is owl on holiday? I'm sure it was you all threatening the stork with violence that did it this month.

we are experts in the fear to here is the best place to be :)

we were nice to the stork before we threatened violence you know!

I got my 22 week scan date through today eeek!

Another friend announced her pg yesterday - she's 7 weeks, has had no scans or anything but assumes since it's her 2nd everything is fine. If I wasn't updiffed I think I'd have to stop hanging around with them all - out of a group of 7, 2 have just given birth and the other 5 are all pg! I was a bit with some comments yesterday though. I was asked how many weeks I was and I said 14 and a bit and one of our (male) friends whose DP is 26 weeks said "haha you know exactly how many weeks, I suppose you do at the beginning". Erm no everyday you get to carry your baby is a miracle so it's not suprising I know! Then his DP started giving me a lecture on exercise (she is a fitness instructor). Firstly she made me feel like a lazy blob coz I don't go to the gym then patronizingly told me that maybe I should try to walk my dog twice a day since I obviously wouldnt be able to manage anything else.

I have packed up a box of clothes I can't fit into any more :) and :( since I now have no jeans to wear.

Anyway, have a lovely day everyone

Hello girls. Sorry I haven't been around much - been v busy as we're buying a house!! Madly dashing around trying to sort out mortgage docs and surveys. All very exciting! That and the little one being very active helped me through my MC due date yeaterday, which was easier than I expected - nothing like a royal wedding and a few street parties for distraction!

Hope everyone is okay today? Fab news from all the scanners last week - Dachs I can't believe you've got one of each - that's fab!!!

Velvet my response to 'helpful' advice like that is usually along the lines of: "yes, I would love to be having such an easy preganacy that I could do more exercise; you don't know how lucky you are".

And welcome YRMOTB!!!!

Just poking my head back in again along with babe. I too have achy boobs and all day morning sickness, so may make more of an appearance here too :) sorry not to name check - I need to read back, but I think I do know most people

Good news from me is that because of my last 2 MMC I have an early scan booked for the 9th May when I will be 6 +3. Then I can start taking clexane injections (sticky blood). I feel very nervous just thinking about it :(

wombat just quickly to say glad you got through your due date ok, mine is tomorrow and I am thankful I am now pregnant otherwise I think it might have been a lot more difficult.

Have a good day everyone xx

Thanks Battery and congrats on your bfp! Hope your dd tomorrow is easier than you expect xxx
