Early Pregnancy Scans....

[LynseyH5]

Hi there, I wanted to create this to help people who are going through similar things to me. To outline, I suffered a blighted ovum last year at 11 weeks. I'm now 6+6 and going for an early scan tomorrow to hopefully see my baby and put my mind to rest. With zero pregnancy symptoms and history playing on my mind, I've found it helpful being on here and talking with others... roll on 12pm tomorrow!!

Hello peanut, whatever your feeling, just go with it and take a day at a time. Sometimes relief is overwhelming and that's not a bad thing, it's a normal reaction.
I carried my mc with me for months afterwards, got upset and especially around the time that would have been my due date. Knowing I couldn't carry on that way, I decided to buy myself a bracelet that had angel wings on. It was my way of remembering the baby that wasn't ment to be but also gave me the release I needed. I haven't took the bracelet off yet! For me, it worked and the weight lifted. Everyone reacts differently. Stay strong and keep in touch xx

Hey Lynsey how are you doing? All going ok for you I hope? 💕💕💕

Hi peanut.
I found out yesterday that the heartbeat we saw had gone. Bleeding never let up so got checked again. Since just yesterday and the scan, the bleeding has got much worse.
I hope your doing ok? Been checking regularly to see if you'd posted but didn't want to pry and get in touch if you weren't ready to talk xx

Oh I am so very sorry. Was hoping that you still had happy news. How tough is that? Just when you think all is ok only to find out it isn't 😢

I lost my little in on Saturday after 2.5 weeks of bleeding. I'd been out shopping for prom dresses for my 15 yr old all day and realised I had heavy loss. After changing pads 3 times in 10 mins, my hubby rushed me to A&E (with 3 kids in tow - 2 mine and 1 my daughter's friend). We were there for around 4 hrs and whilst there a gynae doctor helped me pass my baby. I could've stayed in overnight but really wanted to be with my family and as I wasn't poorly, doc said it was ok. My loss is much less now but I'm just so damn tired all the time 😢

How are you coping? Are you Ok? Huge hugs to you 💕💕💕

With all the blood loss you could be low on iron which will make you feel drained. Might be worth a trip to you doc. What a awful experience for you, I hope your feeling better in yourself now? I'm so sorry you've had to go through it.
I feel 'ok'. I just want to get tomorrow out of the way as I decided on surgical management again. I can't keep bleeding and having cramps like this, it feels like torture. Woke up with terrible pains this morning that felt like it was in my hip but painkillers have took the edge away. Spending the day in bed with a book and hoping it doesn't get any worse before tomorrow xx

I'll be thinking of you. Do you work? Have you taken time off. I've been given a month off for now. I'll see how it goes

Thankfully I don't. Partner does but is very flexible so he's been able to be there for me and help out with little ones.
They are at preschool today hence the day in bed!
I'm so glad they gave you a month, it's nothing in terms of the emotional side but physically it'll give you enough time to feel 'normal' again.
How do you feel about it all now?

It's hard for the men too. I don't think enough credit is given to them and what they do for us. Mine has been there ever step and is my rock.

Feel ok, it just keeps hitting you and that's all you can think about. It then goes away for a while but comes back later. Each day it gets easier but it's always there

Thinking of you both and gutted for you x

Right now all I can think about is getting the surgery done. I'm in pain and bleeding but not passed anything. The pain is awful.
Thank you berries x

Ah no Peanut and Lynsey, I am so very sorry to hear your news. I wish I could think of something comforting to say, but I can't find the words

Do take care xxx
