Hi,
Just wanted to see/get some resasurrance/advice from others and their stories.
Background: I had a miscarriage 19th September 2023 (first pregnancy). I had been spotting since 3 weeks with this pregnancy. Had 8 week scan (only measuring 6 weeks), heartbeat found all looked good. When Mc occured at 10 weeks the baby was only measuring 8+4w. Night before MC had heavy bleeding and incredible lower back pain Opted for D&C. Also found out that I am Rheus negative.
Only had 1 period inbetween falling pregnant this time round.
25th November 2023 (my partners birthday) we found out I was pregnant again!! Had an early scan at 7 weeks because I was paranoid with muscle back pain (only measuring 6 weeks, but saw hearbeat). Sonographer tried to reassure me that once a heartbeat is found that it is a positive thing.
Although I have had no bleeding or pain this time around and feeling more pregnant (nausea, old bras feeling too small and hurt, some clothes feeling tight already) I am struggling because we saw a heartbeat last time and it didn't end well.
Any success stories or advice would be great. Is it normal to measure behind by a week?
Got a 12 week scan booked for 15th January but it feels so long away!
