I can’t shake off the feeling that something is wrong

Justgotmypositive · 09/02/2018 08:22

Ok I’m prepared for people to think this sounds ridiculous. I’m around 5.5-6 weeks pregnant at the moment and feeling some nausea but I feel so sure something is not right. In a previous pregnancy that had no symptoms and ended in miscarriage I had the same conviction that something was wrong. In my last pregnancy I was worried but felt it was generally ok. I’m really worried that my instincts are right and this will end in another missed miscarriage. I know there’s nothing I can do and I’m not sure what I want from posting here. Maybe just to know if anyone else has been in a similar position.

@Alicejj8x
If your 4 weeks (just) then I would say it’s a good thing that they’ve seen a little blob etc but just maybe wasn’t far enough along to confirm if it’s a sac etc?
I’m afraid I don’t really know Hun ? But I would have thought if they’ve said it’s where they’d expect you to be At that amount of weeks try not to worry yourself too much.
Are you re-booked in at a later date? X

Hope18 · 20/02/2018 21:17

@lovewinemorethanhusband
Was your scan today? Or next Tuesday ? X

Alicejj8x · 20/02/2018 21:26

@Hope18 thanks!

Tbh she couldn't work out how far I was along I just said I think about 4 weeks and she said that would look normal for 4 weeks so I might be coming up for 4 weeks she said she thinks maybe I'm around that mark with my clear blue digi test last week saying 2-3
But it's so unsure as to how far I am lol

Yes another scan booked in for next Wednesday. But the scan lady defo seemed positive when she said it's exactly where it's meant to be the little blob so that's good and it was very clear so maybe it's just where I'm super early! I guess next Wednesday we're now more. I've been on other threads on this site and so far everyone has said to me it's where I'm to early and they have experienced the same thing so I hope there right xx

Hope18 · 20/02/2018 21:32

@Alicejj8x
I’m sure it is just a little early and the little blob atm just needs A bit more time. Everyday with no bleeding is a good day and your not to believe otherwise :-) so don’t worry yourself unless a professional has said things may not continue. Our minds can be cruel sometimes and lead us to think bad things which we have no proof of!
your body is trying to do all the changes it needs to go through for pregnancy.. and there’s a lot going on and another weeks time can make a huge difference !
Drink lots of fluid and continue with folic acid and try not to do too much lifting etc.
Sending you all the luck in the world ! X

Alicejj8x · 21/02/2018 07:56

@Hope18 thank you so so much I think I need to stop being so hard on myself and think positive. She told me things are in the right place and surly that should be enough to make me feel happy but atm it isn't and I don't wan to come across as ungrateful but I know what can go wrong so I'm constantly preparing for that rather than what can go right!! I guess next Wednesday I should see a change and I hope I do! I just keep thinking I haven't got this symptom or that symptom or some days I don't feel pregnant the other days I feel like oh yeh I'm pregnant lol but I guess if I'm super early I won't have any of that anyway?

Thank you so much hun. How are you anyway? Xxx

Hope18 · 21/02/2018 13:35

@Alicejj8x honestly we heard a heartbeat last week and I was positive for maybe 2 days? And now I’ve gone back to worrying everyday too lol! But it’s not ungrateful it’s just because it’s something you really want ! :-)

Yeah I completely get that feeling some times symptoms come and go and when there strong it’s almost more reassuring! I feel ok today, felt really rough yesterday just tired and no energy but today isn’t too bad of a day lol
All just a waiting game .. ! X

Alicejj8x · 21/02/2018 13:52

@Hope18 ah that's so good you heard a heart beat :) so happy for you have you got any more scans booked in at all?..

Yeah exactly that ! It's so hard isn't it to train your mind to think positively !

I just hope when I go back next Wednesday I see a sac! I just want to know how far I am lol
It is all a waiting game your right lol.

Ahh I hope today carries on to be a good day I literally have no energy at all and feel shattered and abit sicky but not to sure if I do feel sick or what this feeling is ahahah xx

Elizabeth2018 · 21/02/2018 18:21

Good luck everyone.. the waiting game for a scan is tourture! I’ve never wanted a week to disapeer so much in my life xxx

Alicejj8x · 21/02/2018 18:36

It is super long isn't it. I just hope I'm
Too early atm xx

halfwitpicker · 21/02/2018 20:57

You still there OP? How's things?

Seems like your thread got hijacked....

Alicejj8x · 21/02/2018 21:41

@halfwitpicker I don't think it's fair to say the post got hijacked at all!

pastabest · 21/02/2018 21:49

I think if you have posted double the amount the OP has its pretty fair to say you probably hijacked their thread.

Hope you are ok OP.

FindingNormal · 22/02/2018 01:03

Hope you're ok op. Alice some sensitivity goes a long way.

TeddyIsaHe · 22/02/2018 01:09

Wow so Alice is the most insensitive person that has ever exaisted.

Op hope you’re ok Flowers

Sandinplaces · 22/02/2018 01:23

God this thread is pretty disgusting- op posted about her worries and @Alicejj8x and others have just spammed it with photos of scans and talking about early pregnancy.
There are other threads for celebrating your own pregnancy or talking about your pregnancy as opposed to just spamming a posters thread where they want reassurance

I really hope you're okay Op @Justgotmypositive some people are so insensitive.

Alicejj8x · 22/02/2018 06:10

Wow wow wow !!

I thought this group was to help and support everyone. Yes this I OP thread but I am on many a thread and lots of different things come up and change the actual topic of the thread so don't you dare try and tell me I am insensitive how dare you all that's disgusting behaviour.

I have OP is ok and wish her the very best but if someone is worried and come across a post your going to type your worries in

You are all disgusting for even thinking I am insensitive and being so damn right rude

Alicejj8x · 22/02/2018 06:11

@Sandinplaces if you actually look I was looking for reassurance aswell so that's not fair

TeddyIsaHe · 22/02/2018 06:31

Alice start your own thread! How is that difficult to understand? Now the op has been run off during a really stressful time because you’ve blathered on and on about things that might be a little bit insensitive? I’m gobsmacked you don’t get why people would see that as insensitive?

TeddyIsaHe · 22/02/2018 06:33

Sorry op, I’m doing the same thing now! Just really annoyed on your behalf. I do hope everything’s going ok for you, maybe start a new thread and link to it here so we can give you some support.

Alicejj8x · 22/02/2018 06:45

Wow @TeddyIsaHe are you for real

I've got a thread on PCOS I posted in there a few times but now it has about 345 comments and people commenting and I hardly comment I never once would dream of Saying to the ladies who needed help advice and reassurance hey this is my thread stop talking about yourselfs

Obv we have different morals

pastabest · 22/02/2018 07:10

Alice, anyone who hangs around the pregnancy and conception boards will know that you have started several threads all about your pregnancy and will also know that this isn't the only thread you have jumped on and tried to make it all about you.

You've been on MN long enough that you could have figured out the etiquette around these things by now if you wanted, but despite this in the main people have politely answered your questions rather than pointing this out to you.

No one is disgusting for pointing this out for you. It isn't immoral to point this out you. Frankly those who have pointed it out to you could have used far stronger terms than 'insensitive' and still been on the right side of the talk guidelines.

Put yourself in the position of the OP for one tiny second and imagine how upsetting some of your posts might be in their position. Especially since you do in fact have your very own thread on this that you've been posting the same stuff on and didn't even need to put it here any way.

Seriously.

Alicejj8x · 22/02/2018 07:12

Wow how dare you say I'm on lots of threads as are you

You are so very rude and maybe you need to think about people who want some reassurance I defo will not be asking for any advice of you and people like you

You've now made this post all about You

I am disgusted by your actions and will be reporting this

Alicejj8x · 22/02/2018 07:12

Tried to make it all about me wow

You are so very rude

NorthernLurker · 22/02/2018 07:20

This is the most hijacked thread I've seen for a while! Whatever possessed Alice and Hope? Lucky they can talk to each other I guess, they are clearly v much in tune.

Alicejj8x · 22/02/2018 07:23

Omg are you for real!!

Wow I will not be lowering my standards to you pack of women.
