Hi all, sorry to everyone who finds themselves on this board Sad. I lost a baby at 20 weeks at the end of November, with a traumatic labour. I’m still waiting on counselling for this. I recently found out I was pregnant again, I though it would heal some of the past but I’ve been an anxious wreck. This morning I took another pregnancy test (5 In total) which came up a strong positive straight away, but about an hour after arriving at work I had a big flood of blood and now fear the worst. A and e said there’s nothing they can do and told us to take another test in two weeks. I messaged my bereavement midwife from my previous pregnancy who has arranged a scan on Thursday. How do I keep myself sane from now until then? Is there any hope for a positive outcome? X

Im so sorry. The blood - it might be nothing. The wait will be so long but theres nothing else you can do. Try to stay busy and if i was you i would assume the worst but hope for the best. Im having a miscarriage at the moment nearly 9 weeks along. Its not come out yet. Any free time i have i am playing a game called Simcity on my phone as it stops me from thinking.

Oh @Ryanstartedthefire2 I’m so sorry you’re in that situation, sending all my love Flowers thank you for your advice, I went to work today to occupy myself, I was running to the loo every 2 mins convinced I was starting to bleed again but just a little bit of brown blood. It’s awful being in limbo! X

Thank you. Well done for surviving the day - 1/14. One day at a time yes staying busy and maybe planning a weekend away might be an idea if you have the time money and energy. I am planning to take some hols to cheer myself up and remind myself that life is nice even though it can be brutal at times. Best of luck. Its out of your hands xx
