If we can't be positive about the weather what can we be? Grin

Sending lots of positive vibes to you today Unicorns

Good luck @UnicornsandRainbows1! Thinking of you today, and sending lots of good luck vibes your way. Xx

Thinking of you and hoping for good news today, unicorns

Welcome belkin - I'm so sorry for all you've been through. Am absolutely rooting for you that this is your time.

keepinghopeful · 26/03/2018 08:13

Good luck @UnicornsandRainbows1 😊😊

kirinm · 26/03/2018 08:27

Back in hospital. Another heavy bleed. Am told that last week I lost 500ml of blood. I've got cramps this time too so am pretty worried. I've been told I'll probably be admitted again. Petrified.

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 26/03/2018 08:38

Oh So many messages. It's at 11. Hopefully, going by a couple of weeks ago I should be 10+1

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 26/03/2018 08:41

@kirinm I hope this really calms down for you soon, what an anxious few months you've had with it all. Keep us updated

keepinghopeful · 26/03/2018 08:50

@kirinm thinking of you, keepus updated💗

LisaSimpsonsbff · 26/03/2018 10:07

I'm so sorry that you're going through this stress again, Kirin - I really hope the bleeding resolves asap.

kirinm · 26/03/2018 10:11

Hello, still at the hospital. Bleeding seems to be stopping but yet again they ca

kirinm · 26/03/2018 10:13

Sorry pressed post too early. They can't see where the bleeding is coming from. They've done a scan and thankfully we saw baby and a heartbeat. I feel shattered with it all to be honest.

GreyCloudsToday · 26/03/2018 10:14

I'm so sorry ek78 for that devastating news. Sending you all best wishes for this supremely crappy time. Flowers

Kirin sorry to hear you've had a bleed, fingers crossed it stops soon. Sorry for all the stress.

Good luck Unicorns!

NoCatsHere · 26/03/2018 10:46

Good luck unicorns absolutely everything crossed.

kirin sorry you’ve had so much stress but glad you saw baby and a heartbeat too.

MsJuniper · 26/03/2018 11:21

@kirinm so sorry you are going through this again as you suspected. It's great the baby still seems healthy but must be a huge worry for you. I hope they can locate the cause and it's something which eases your mind.

@UnicornsandRainbows1 hope the scan is going well this morning.

We had a very busy weekend and are mostly ready for CS-day on Wednesday. I am having mild irregular contractions and have had some signs of the (sorry tmi) mucous plug coming away so I guess it could still happen before then. I have been barely sleeping due to various discomforts but also mind racing and anxiety/catastrophising about something going wrong at the last minute. The idea of an actual baby still seems very surreal despite the Moses basket staring at me. Hopefully I will be able to share good news with you in a couple of days.

itsgoingtoofast · 26/03/2018 12:23

@MsJuniper I was just thinking of you today. I am booked in for Wednesday too. I am feeling exactly the same on all counts! I hope it goes smoothly for you and look forward to hearing your news

Pinkvoid · 26/03/2018 12:31

Is anyone else completely unable to even acknowledge their pregnancy till the 12 week scan? I’m 8+2 now but after two MMC last year the 12 week scan is my aim. If I make it to that and everything’s fine, I’ll feel like I’ve made it but until then don’t even want to think about the pregnancy. I’ve only just self-referred to a MW today. Just feel like the booking appointment the last two times was a massive waste of everyone’s time Sad.

itsgoingtoofast · 26/03/2018 12:35

@Pinkvoid I absolutely felt like that. It's self preservation I think. It's like this enormous milestone that feels so far away. It's a long road. I hope time passes as quickly as possible for you

AnneLovesGilbert · 26/03/2018 12:35

Thinking of you unicorns, so hope it's great news and all is well in here.

So sorry kirinm, you must be shattered, what an awful time. Hope they're looking after you.

LisaSimpsonsbff · 26/03/2018 13:15

Oh wow, msjuniper and itsgoingtoofast - Wednesday! Wishing you both luck, and sending you (and your little ones) the very best of good wishes.

kirinm · 26/03/2018 13:17

Thanks all. In bed feeling sorry for myself.

@Pinkvoid I was very much like that. First I wanted to get past 11 weeks, that being my latest miscarriage. Then 12, then 13 (when I had my scan) and now I'm h

kirinm · 26/03/2018 13:19

Gah sorry! I was going to say, now I'm hoping to make it to 24 weeks at least so there's a chance baby will make it but that is only because I'm having continual bleeds. I think if I hadn't bled I would have been feeling pretty confident after my 13 week scan.

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 26/03/2018 13:23

All fine, have a little wriggler who kept falling back to sleep 😂 Now measuring 10+4 which is one day ahead of my lmp date which is crazy. Eurgh what a relief.

keepinghopeful · 26/03/2018 13:28

@kirinm totally understandable that you feel sorry for yourself

Brilliant @UnicornsandRainbows1 & breathe 😊

kirinm · 26/03/2018 13:37

Beautiful pic @UnicornsandRainbows1 enjoy the aftermath. A scan usually has me on cloud 9!

AnneLovesGilbert · 26/03/2018 14:21

So delighted for you unicorns Smile

I know it's daft to poke around in there and I'm sure everything's "normal" but my cervix hole feels completely different to how it usually does. Hard to describe it, and googling's thrown up nothing at all, but it's not a perfectly round dent anymore, more like it's got a slit and a dent?

Is anyone else mad enough to be cervix poking?

Got my 8 week RMC scan Wednesday and and seeing my usual guy which will be nice. Then booking apt Thursday. DH and I have both decided we prefer non scan weeks to scan weeks. Of course we're hugely grateful to be getting early scans, but it feels like they're offering them for a reason and I know I'm not prepared for anything to be wrong this time around Sad

Also worrying about missing so much work with appointments.
