@aesgriff have u had blood work done again? Is it still to early to see something? Xx

OP posts:
bunnykins123 · 21/02/2022 10:08

@aesgriff oh no! Could it just be that bean is too diddy at this stage? From what I recall (correct me if I'm wrong) you are still quite early?

aesgriff · 21/02/2022 10:09

@Ganesh2022 I didn’t get any cramping with my spotting xx

aesgriff · 21/02/2022 10:10

@Ganesh2022 @bunnykins123 more bloods done and depending on what they say another rescan. I’m 4+5 today so early xx

calimc83 · 21/02/2022 10:13

@Skl2021 keep us updated lovely, definitely call in sick xx
@aesgriff echoing others. How many weeks are you? You may be too early. Thinking of you xx

bunnykins123 · 21/02/2022 10:15

@aesgriff I'm so sorry, this must be so stressful. That being said, I think you may be a too early for beanie to show on the scan. Most places won't even offer a scan until 6/7 weeks as they are still so tiny at that stage. Did the midwives say anything about it? Were they able to reassure you?

Skl2021 · 21/02/2022 10:25

Nothing will probably happen today. My epu shut at 12 and I might not even get a call back from gp until later then they have to refer etc x

@Skl2021 awful being in such limbo. How are u feeling? X

Skl2021 · 21/02/2022 10:42

@calimc83 I'm trying to calm myself down. It's not doing me any good worrying about it. I just have a horrible gut feeling something is wrong xx

OP posts:
bunnykins123 · 21/02/2022 10:44

@Skl2021 😢 have you had any more spotting or was it just last night? I hope you're doing okay, I do agree that worrying doesn't help anything but that's way easier said than done.

calimc83 · 21/02/2022 10:45

@Skl2021 I get that. I think only a scan will help reassure you know. Thinking of you xx

Skl2021 · 21/02/2022 10:49

@bunnykins123 nope no more. Which I know is stupid I shouldn't be worrying but this is how it started last time. On n off bleeding. I also have some diarrhea and some weird pains in lower stomach. All same symptoms as last time. Also feel very wet again like I could come on at any minute whereas IV been very dry lately. X

@calimc83 I really don't want to go to scan don't know if I can make it in the room already petrified. Don't want to hear those words again but I know it's the only way to find out x

@Skl2021 oh the wait is awful but also ridiculous! Surely we should be able to see our GPs and EPUs should be open longer by now? My local EPU closed due to the pandemic and hasn’t reopened since but the closest one shuts at 4 at least. 12 is so early!

arianasky · 21/02/2022 11:00

@Skl2021 honestly unless you find work distracting I'd take some time off, I'm still off and feel guilty for it but I know mentally I'm struggling and I would easily break down or make a mistake and that isn't worth it to me, I have everything crossed for you 💕

@aesgriff I still have everything crossed for you my EPU won't scan me until I'm 6 weeks as they don't think anything would show until then so hopefully that's the case for you aswell 💕

Skl2021 · 21/02/2022 11:02

@peachiekeen yes it's ridiculous. Haven't been given a time for gp call either can be anytime up to 5pm so just have to wait it out xx

OP posts:
Skl2021 · 21/02/2022 11:04

@arianasky I'm just trying to keep busy. It's going to be a waiting game anyway. Just need to hope for the best but I'm preparing myself for the worst. Don't feel guilty your going through a hard time u go back when u feel ready 💕 xx

Good morning

I am not a member of this group but suffered a full term loss almost 15 years ago. My heart goes out to everyone here.

During the months following the devestating loss of my son I purchased a copy of this book ...

www.amazon.co.uk/Trying-Again-Pregnancy-Miscarriage-Stillbirth/dp/0878331824?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

I still have it and its in good condition. If possible I would like to pass it on to someone. If you would like it please send me a DM and I will get it in the post to you.

Much love

Cruz86 · 21/02/2022 11:13

I'm so sorry that this week hasn't started well in here 😞 It must be so triggering to be going through something like this after a mc. I honestly dread it. My heart goes out to you all @Skl2021 @Ganesh2022 @aesgriff.

@Skl2021 I hope the gp gets back to you soon but in the meantime, like you say, keep yourself busy but try not to overdo it physically either.

@Ganesh2022 I spotted for days around my bfp in October. Like @aesgriff**, it was a mixture of brown, pink and bright red too! But it stopped a couple of days after my period was due. Really hope yours stops soon.

@aesgriff you are still very early so I'm hopeful you will see something soon. Keep us updated, scans are great but they can also make us question more at this stage 😩

Thinking of you all xxx

peachiekeen · 21/02/2022 11:13

@arianasky 100% I agree - do NOT feel guilty for being off work. You’ve been through so much and your well being is so much more important than work right now. Only you will know when it feels right to go back. Any decent human being will understand that.

@Skl2021 oh god that’s so long to wait. If it gets closer to 5 and you haven’t heard then do chase them up. Mine forgot to call me so I chased it and then they were really apologetic. I’d hate for you to have to wait overnight too without speaking to anyone x

Ganesh2022 · 21/02/2022 11:14

@aesgriff I think they only expect to see a sac after 5 weeks, so fingers crossed that, though hugely stressful, all is ok. With my dd they saw nothing at all til after 5 weeks plus and also wrote PUL. 2 weeks later there she was.

calimc83 · 21/02/2022 11:16

@Skl2021 u know I totally get that as well. I'm not even pregnant and already thinking about future potential scans and how I won't want to attend them as it's just too triggering x

Ganesh2022 · 21/02/2022 11:17

@Cruz86 thank you for telling me...worried as came with some cramping, too....

@Skl2021 I think shit experiences really mess with us, so anxiety feels like instinct sometimes. I so, so, so hope that all is ok. What a monday....

Cruz86 · 21/02/2022 11:20

Yes I had the worst cramping ever @Ganesh2022! Actually a lot worse than my usual period cramps. I had to have a hot water bottle most nights. I really hope it's just little bean nestling in. Fwiw, my mc wasn't related to my lining or bleeding at all either so I don't think it affected anything in that respect x

Skl2021 · 21/02/2022 11:21

Thanks everyone for the support just need to ride it out and hope everything is ok 💕 I'm feeling a little calmer now I have spoken to you all. 🤞
What a terrible Monday 🤦 we need some good news and positivity 🤞✨ xx

Sending love to everyone struggling today, I hope things go the way we all hope they will but I know it's so hard not to worry especially after being through the worst before 💛💛

Af has hit me like a tonne of bricks today, stupidly only brought two pads to work, which was wishful thinking..! Didn't realise how triggering it would be to bleed again too. Sorry for the tmi 🙈
