Hello lovely people,
I'm Amy, I'm 22 & In August I suffered a great loss to my little baby. A few days before my first scan, I started to bleed, I visited EPU and they said the womb is closed, all is okay. Had my scan booked for the day after anyway, went and on the screen was a sack. I had no idea what was or wasn't the baby, had an internal scan which revealed I lost my baby at 6 weeks and was carrying them for over a month whilst they were dead. The internal scan started the onset of my miscarriage, it was the most painful and emotional experience I have ever had. Me&My partner soon worked it out that it was due to being around siblings who had 'Slapped Cheek Syndrome' it can cause spontaneous miscarriage.

I found out I am now pregnant again, I'm happy but anxious and scared. I'm roughly 4+2 so early stages! My stomach feels tender which I didn't have in my first pregnancy, nor any implantation bleeding. I have had a dull pain which is what I felt during pregnancy one. I'm seeing my midwife next week.

But my main question is, what should I expect to be different? What will I feel different after 6 weeks? Any information would be amazing, really will. Grin

@Hope18 so, the cramping im having isn't normal and because of previous mmc, they're going to get me to take bloods every 2/3 days to monitor the baby if they're growing up to my scan date x

Wow 8 weeks ! When was your LMP?
Try not to worry too much, I’m sure everything will be ok sometimes things develop a little slower than the text book says they should! How are you feeling this morning ? X
