I've been waiting 13 days now since the first bleed. That's an awful lot of time to research what's coming.

In that time I've lost all my symptoms (never seen boobs change size so fast!), had a lot of mood swings & a depressing run-in with a digital pregnancy test. But no more bleeding.

Sometimes I let myself hope. With enough prodding my boobs were still tender. Then I discovered my dates hadn't gone DOWN on the clearblue, just stayed the same so no answer at all really. Once or twice I persuaded myself I was gaining weight in the right area.

But the bleeding's just started again tonight. My scan's on Weds. & whether I make it to then or not...I'm really scared of what's coming Confused

Hi Boymeetsworld! Aww I'm so sorry that you're going through this. Once you get something in your mind it is so easy to convince yourself though! I know it is hard but try and be positive! A lot of women bleed all the way through their pregnancies. All the best for Wednesday! I'll be thinking of you. Let us know how you get on. Lots of love and positive vibes to you.

I bled lots throughout my first pregnancy and I now have a perfect little toddler!

Hi again, just read your other post about your husband not understanding - sorry I didn't realise how sure you are that you've already lost the baby. I really feel for you. I know what you're going through - I'm just suffering my second consecutive miscarriage and it is just heartbreaking. I carried on having normal pregnancy symptoms with this one though (really nauseous, huge bump etc. people thought I was about 20 weeks but I was only 12). It turned out that I lost the baby about four weeks ago Sad. I'm devastated. My first miscarriage was similar to what you describe though and the wait for scans 'just in case' was absolutely horrible. My other half was really positive too and my family and friends that knew I was pregnant. It was so frustrating as I knew there was something wrong. If I were you I'd call the early pregnancy unit tomorrow and see if you can get in for a scan earlier as this isn't doing anyone any good. Thinking of you!

Thank you so much. I'm sorry you're going through this too Hmm that's a really good idea to phone the EPU - the worst they can say is no I guess
