Staying posifrickentive- Thread 15 for ladies pg after mc

[XxBecxX]

Hya ladies, hope you find this!
Xxx

I'm 15+5 today a d have just thrown up for the first time! Had all day nausea from weeks 6-12 then felt lots better, but had felt awful all day and threw up when I got home! Wondering if it's because I haven't eaten much today (toast for breakfast and ham sandwich for lunch) I don't think it's something I've eaten as I've had the same as DS or DH and they're both fine. Very odd though, felt very bloated and full of indigestion today, I wonder if it's too much bread...

alb good to hear things seem to be under control but it must be really hard to deal with given you have no way of knowing what's happening. How far along are you?

oliver maybe it's a bug of some sort, hope you feel better soon.

Created a thread.

Wow purple, you are doing soooo well. It cant be easy with only a sliver of pancreas left just to live everyday life, never mind make a baby and then breastfeed it. Be very kind to yourself.
oliver I fend off sickness by making sure I eat something every hour. I always have a handful of unsalted nuts in my pocket to nibble on seems to make a difference.
I had a bit of cramping last night. It has gone now and no blood. The good news is I had this with my daughter and all was fine. Still doesn't feel real. Don't think it will until the scan.

Thank you bellende not a lot of people get that...

I work in the cancer field, so I do get it and I am pretty much in awe.

Alb glad you're ok and they're keeping an eye on you.

Olivers do you feel any better today?

For those further along, when did your tiredness start to reduce? I think mine is less but I am still having naps when I can and falling asleep by 9.30 each night. which is not THAT early really as I'm normally a 10pm lights out anyway 13+5 today.

Say; was just about to post about tiredness. I'm on my knees after 3pm each day, and I am starting to feel like a crap mum to DD and mix in the food aversions a crap and annoying DW to DH.

I never felt so so so tired with DD and I am honestly wondering if there are two in there (they found one hb at nine weeks, actually thought there'd be zero or two).

HOWEVER I miscarried at this exact point in my last pregnancy. I have felt v nervous about this weekend because of that and even though I'm depressingly exhausted I'm weirdly glad. I have symptoms. Something is going on. I'm glad for that.

Hello all I am having a meltdown day today just feeling like it will all go wrong again. I've had constant back pain low down since before I even knew I was pregnant and cramping in my stomach that just feels like I am going to start bleeding and I just can't bear the knicker checking suspense any more! Me and OH agreed this time to keep it an absolute secret but today was my SIL's baby shower, and also the day I met one of my best friend's baby who shared my original due date of my first miscarriage and I just had a complete blubbering melt down on my mum's shoulder when I got home and I told her everything. She is now making me lay down and bringing me cups of tea and I do feel better but I also don't feel like this pregnancy will last and now I've told someone I've jinxed it. 7 weeks today. I just don't know how I will cope in the coming weeks. I can't bear this suspense of not knowing. Sorry to rant only you ladies and my mama know anything I just needed to vent! X

olivers my DD was EMCS after waters breaking at home and contractions, failure to progress, induction drip to speed things up and then a distressed baby and me starting to get very unwell due to my waters having broken 36 hours earlier so sounds similar to you. The EMCS was the best bit of the whole process and there is no way I want to go through all that again only to end up with another section. I found it very stressful and this time have DD to think about it. I know recovery with a toddler might not be easy but I'll have my mum to help and DH is thinking of taking extended leave anyway as he really wants time at home with DD and the new baby. It's such a difficult choice though, I know they would prefer me to have a vbac but I'm too scared to risk it tbh.

littlepooch im so pleased you said that, so many people are very much pro vbac, and I would love to try but too scared of the same thing happening again. DH is all for a section too and it would make childcare so much easier!

Feeling better finally now, I've spent all day feeling like I'm getting over a sickness bug, was sick again not long after the first time last night, so I think it was something I'd eaten..heard heartbeat on my Doppler today and yesterday and have a gender scan tomorrow so pretty confident baby is ok, but it's all very worrying!

haz deep breaths. If you need to for the next while stay away from all things baby related. Lie, make excuses, just protect yourself. True friends will understand. Nothing you say or do can change the outcome of your pregnancy, the best you can do its be kind to yourself and let others look after you. I don't know far you are along but might be worth thinking about a reassurance scan. If your early pregnancy unit won't do it, they aren't that expensive private. I would not go for one before 8 weeks though, you really want them to get a good clear picture, and sometimes that isn't possible before 8 weeks, which can cause more worry.

Thank you belle for saying that. You are right, nothing I say or do will change the outcome, nothing I did with the last two pregnancies saved them! I've woken up feeling a lot less scared today and more "what will be will be." I'm 7 weeks so will have to wait at least another week or two for a scan but I'm not sure whether it'll make me feel better or worse, my mum said even if you have an early scan it doesn't change the outcome and she is right. Thanks for your kind words, embarrassed reading that post back today haha I was just freaking out! X

I've booked a scan for 8+4, 7+2 at the moment. I know it doesn't make any difference but it was the one thing I did differently last time and I felt bad about it - irrationally so.

I've got a fever, sickness, insomnia and really struggling keep my eyes open. Having cramping and bad lower back pain but not sure if that's just the fever aches - didn't have this last time, it started with brown cm and the turned to bleeding. Not feeling very hopeful. Definitely my worse pregnancy so far. Did anyone who had more mc find the mc symptoms were different each time.

Do you think it's worth going to the EPU walk in tomorrow? Or will they send me away - I don't like to waste people's time.

In other news, my DSis gave birth to my beautiful nephew yesterday and all those fears about being upset didn't materalise, I feel so proud of her.

Aw that's good news and congratulations on becoming an auntie greenglass. If it makes you feel better then I say go for it, I had a private scan with my first pregnancy and miscarried about 5 - 6 weeks later. I didn't with my second pregnancy and miscarried that too. They both felt completely different so I have no idea how a successful pregnancy is meant to feel but I veer dramatically from convincing myself it's all fine to thinking it's all over many times a day! Sorry to hear you're feeling rubbish. Maybe give the local EPU a call, see what they say x

For me the early days of a viable pregnancy and a MC were indistinguishable. Symptoms all slightly different, they all waxed and waned.
haz if you can hang in there for a bit longer then do. I went for an early scan once. It was too early, and they could not confirm if there was an embryo or just an empty egg sac. I had blood taken over 48 hours to check that hcg was doubling every 24 hours. Longest two days of my life. If I had waited a couple of days, the scan would have been more informative and I would have been spared a lot of worry.

I think I will book one then for in a couple of weeks time, but I'm going to see how this week goes first! Not had as much cramping today so hopefully it was just an upset stomach. I was doubled up with pain last night and it made me feel sick but when I went to the loo it passed haha cringey! I felt like such a drama queen!

Hazard if we can't be drama queens when we are pregnant when can we be?!

So after the pain was getting unbearable I went to A&E, I have an infection and they've given me antibiotics and fluids but they don't know where the infection is coming from. Have been moved onto a ward to stay overnight. I definitely feel like a drama queen.

Hello, tentatively checking in...again. I was here around this time last year too but that ended in MC 3 at 8.5 weeks. Feeling weirdly less anxious this time but just overwhelmingly negative :( I hope everyone is ok, lightgreen don't feel like a drama queen - do whatever you need to do! Fingers crossed for everyone xx

Welcome princess I love your name, makes me want to change mine to crapbag! Greenglass you obviously must be pretty ill if you've been kept on a ward! Don't feel like a drama queen! I hope you recover really quickly and get home soon.
Ginger haha you are right, now is the time to be dramatic and emotional! I'm going to exercise my right to do this even more often!

Just checking in, haven't been on much as I've been trying to distract myself from being pregnant. All became a bit much for me tonight and I had a cry and convinced myself things aren't going to go well this time either. Early scan this week so think that's why I've become much more worried, I know this could be the end :(

light if they have kept you in and hooked you up to an iv, I don't think you qualify as a drama queen. I hope you start feeling better at least. Do they think it is pregnancy related or something else? Hope you get home soon.

Having a meltdown today! 10+1 today, this is the point my babies heart stopped beating with my last pregnancy. Found out 4 days later when I started bleeding and cramping heavily.
Cramping today as well which is worrying me a lot. Trying to distract myself from it. Had a little cry to my dh last night after watching something in the tv, couldn't hold it in any longer. Don't think he knew what to do, he hugged me and then my mum rang so I'm guessing he text her. Funny how mums always make you feel better.

Hope you're all ok too ❤
