Hi Fleurie, I can totally empathise with you. I had two miscarriages in a row so this pregnancy I've done nothing but worry. I was sent for early scans for reassurance, if you go to your doctor and explain your worries they can refer you to the Early Pregnancy Unit. I saw my baby at 6wks and 8wks. I'm now 40wks and still can't believe I've made it this far, although I still can't relax until she's out. I hope things work out for you this time, it is possible! Smile

Hi... I'm a newbie!
I'm 34, already have 2 daughters aged 17 and 15. I had a MMC a couple of years ago, went along for my 12 week scan, where she told me the baby had died at about 10 weeks. I never bled or had any signs, had to go to hospital to have the baby taken away.
Now I'm 5 weeks pregnant and absolutely terrified! Every little pain or ache scares me, every time I have a wee, I expect to see bleeding. Don't know how I'm going to bring myself to go to the 12 week scan. On top of all that I've got an UTI which I'm taking antibiotics for. I'm so scared, don't know how I'm going to get through this. Help!!

Good luck Lola. I understand the horrible worrying. Having L safely here has been such a relief. Hope your slow labour is nice and quick at the end! After all the worry you deserve a sneeze birth!!

Mrsd that's fab news, congratulations! I suffered two m/c before this pregnancy, and I've done nowt but worry at every little thing... My OH has been extremely supportive even though I've been a bloody nightmare. I'm now 39+1 and in slow labour... Still can't relax until she's born though but we've almost made it! Grin

Hi all. This thread seems to be no longer current, but felt it was important to complete my story as this thread was a massive source of support in the early days.

Libby was born 8 days ago by elcs, weighing 9lb 8oz! All is going really very well indeed. I still can't believe she's here and is safe and happy and content.

If anyone is out there and wobbling, this pregnancy business can be done! Phew!

vix same as me :)

MrsD I was looking back through the thread and thought you might be getting closer :) exciting times!

Welcome MrsShrubs lots of hand holding on here, and some lovely stories if you read through-they certainly helped me get through the first 12-14 weeks :)

Hi everyone, can I join? We had a MC at the beginning of March (our first pregnancy) and fell pregnant straight away afterwards. Now practically at 14 weeks with EDD 14 December so fingers crossed this Christmas will be an extra special one!

Hi. I've been lurking for ages just not had much to say. I'm 33 weeks tomorrow! Eek! Not long now!

Thinking of making next week my last at work. Too exhausted to do anything properly!

I fell pregnant after my first normal period after natural MC if that makes sense!!

Sounds like we had similar gaps as you'll be close to the EDD by then, good luck and keep us posted on here :)

Hello! Can I de-lurk and join?

I miscarried at the end of March between 6-7 weeks pregnant. I'm now almost 8 weeks pregnant and hoping all is well this time. I also have a DS who is almost 3.

It's gone very quite in here! elsabel how are you, any news?

Hope everyone is doing well?

Finally into the third trimester here, can't believe it! My last due date was this week so even though I'm pregnant again it's been a pretty emotional week, can't wait to get past it and feel more positive again :)

Ah ok, my scan write up said it, they handed me that in the room & I added it to my folder. I can't believe the mess they made with your notes re another MC - shocking!

I only get my notes next week (they have taken ages to appear because they were archived as they mistakenly had me down for a miscarriage this pg!). So they've had to dig them out of archives, I get them next week when I go back for my consultant appt. Will have a look then... It could also just be because it's my second pg; although I am by no means overweight, my tummy is definitely not as tight as it used to be (sob) so I think that the kicking is not as noticeable...

Should be on your notes from the scan :) they'd only tell you if you ask or if its low. Could be high anterior like mine, hence less feelings?

nerual · 14/05/2013 13:33

I didn't ask, is it the kind of thing they would mention without me asking?
