Another posifrickintive thread for those pregnant after miscarriage #4

[Treaclepie19]

Welcome aboard ladies - bumps big and small :)

thank you brickie, that is very reassuring-your measurements are almost identical to mine. I suppose if the yolk sac measurement was exactly 6 rather than 6.2 I might feel more hopeful. However tonight I feel quite sick, so at least I still feel pregnant which is a little reassuring.I Am glad your scan went well.

All good on the scan!! Measuring bang on 9+6 (which I am tomorrow), heart beating away, it was moving around, and we could even see its nose! So relieved

Yay, that's great news cloud!

Ahh cloud that's so brilliant

Hello all.

This is such a positive thread (haven't managed it all but love the updates on mums and babies).

Please can I join? Have two DSs, then 18 months ago got pregnant accidentally, thrilled but surprised, then had v traumatic missed miscarriage at 11+6. Blue-lighted to hospital, had clots etc removed with no pain relief, and the speculums used for smear tests etc. V kind staff but it was horrid. Was already heading for depression I think (work stress) but this threw me right into it. Had antidepressants for a year and CBT for about 15 months.

DH and I decided to try again last month and bang, got a BFP first time. Which I know should make me glad, but actually I feel v anxious, feel like I should not be at all excited until we have seen everything at the 12-wk scan (if we get that far), and am just waiting for the next six or so weeks to get past, so I know either way. Did any of you feel like this? By my reckoning, I am 5+6 today.

On the positive side, am feeling unbelievably nauseous and tired, and these have kicked in slightly earlier than with other two healthy pregnancies. The MC pregnancy, I didn't feel sick or tired until later, which was maybe a clue looking back.

Anyway, lovely to meet you all. Hope everyone is feeling well.

Welcome flying and congratulations! Very normal to want to rush through these next six weeks, I wanted to just sleep and wake up at my scan :-) try and find stuff to keep you occupied and sane while you wait.

Welcome over here brummie! Aw, I was welling up reading your welcome messages. Your true home! May your stay here be long and smooth.

cloud hurrah! What fab news.

Welcome newbies. It's a scary time but we can help get you through.

Due date today. Feeling pretty sick and uncomfortable but that's been the same for ages now.

Just got back from the cinema with dd. Was nice to have a cuddle in the dark. Suddenly nervous about her having to share me after so long just us.

Just woke from my first proper nap all pregnancy. Why didn't I make the most of that excuse eh?

brummie lovely to see you here! x

And welcome topsy and flying Pregnancy after mc can be an anxious time so i'm glad you've joined us.

gum I'd have another scan in a week to 10 days. I wouldn't wait longer just because of the stress this is causing.

Happy due date longest!

Hi all, it's been almost a year since I was last here and I think I'm ready to join again if you'll have me. It's not that I haven't been upduffed since then, I've been going for some sort of record on that front, just haven't felt strong enough to do the whole joining only to unjoin again thing. I've just been looking at the stats, getting a bit teary seeing some of the names I remember in the thread babies list. So lovely to read about their happy endings and really hoping I'll join them this time

My stats: DS born April 2012 then since Jan 2014 2MC, MMC, 4MC
I'm now 15+1, EDD 20th Nov, and despite a couple of bleeds (which sent my stress levels through the roof but baby turned out to be fine), am now starting to think that this might be the one. We've even told DS

There's been several times over the last few days where I've thought I felt movements. Going to be such a relief once they're more recognisable and regular, the last few weeks of uncertainty feel like they've lasted forever!

Wishing you all boring, uneventful pregnancies and hoping that the thread babies list gets a lot longer.

Yay cloud, such fantastic news. I'm so pleased for you. You must feel relieved xx

Welcome back witch. Sounds as though you have had the most dreadful heartache in the last year or so. My heart and hugs go out to you and I pray this is The One xx

Thanks so much everyone it's wonderful to be welcomed back so warmly.

I'm still so frightened of stuff going wrong. Having acupuncture weekly to manage my anxiety.

I was exhausted though today and ended up crashing out got a 2 hr nap!!

Hello to all the newbies and the returners :) glad to see lots of good news, so relieved for you cloud

I have been having the worst few days in terms of anxiety, I've been so stressed and emotional and I've been feeling and being more sick the last few days and I have convinced myself that it's all because my hormones are going backwards and something has gone wrong do I sound utterly ridiculous ?! I thought my anxiety would lessen after my 12 week scan but it bloody well has kicked it up a notch roll on 16 week midwife appointment, hopefully I'll get to hear the heart beat and feel better. I genuinely don't know how us women can cope sometimes

Congratulations!!

Congratulations Sunbathing fantastic news that she is safely here. Can't believe how often they get it wrong re breech. Definitely going to get myself a late scan!
