More Christmas Cake! Pregnancy after loss (thread 3)

[SpongeBobGrannyPants]

New thread!

@leamaria yes due 27th this month, so far all has been good and I've had absolutely no problems. Certainly nothing to warrant this anxiety anyway! I've got SPD which I've actually managed better this time than with previous pregnancies, but I've been practically bed bound for the last few days really which probably isn't helping with the irrational thoughts!!! Too much time for my mind to wander...

@leamaria no, a surprise, but I am carrying very similarly to how I carried my daughter so I am thinking it's probably a girl. I already have one of each so we'll just have to wait and see!!

@leamaria ahhh that's so exciting!! Hope you're feeling ok x

So exciting to see so many of you approaching your due dates eek!

So exciting! I've still got 9 weeks to go but have placenta previa so depending on what happens at my scan at 36 weeks baby may make a slightly earlier appearance. How did you get on today @Cakelaur? I'm desperate to know whether I'll be having a section or not!

@TimeWaitsForNoWoman we've been set free!!! Natural birth for us!! Whoop!! Placenta moved to 21mm and it had to be over 20!! So JUST clear! But super happy.

@cakelaur that's great news! How far along are you now?

Ah yayyyyyy @Cakelaur! Super pleased for you! Do you mind me asking if yours was completely covering at the 20 week scan? Mine was and I'm madly trying to calculate my chances of it moving but the internet is full of conflicting information.

@Cakelaur that's great news!

That's great news @cakelaur ! I've got 4 weeks on Friday! Hopefully bit earlier tho! 🤞 Finishing work on Friday! X

@Cakelaur that's great news!

Can't believe there's so many close to due dates 😊

I've just been diagnosed with gestational diabetes so will now have growth scans and a lot of monitoring. Depending on how baby and me deal with it, it could mean that in induced at around 38 weeks.... that's only 9 weeks away, I don't feel ready 😂🙈

Just had our 4D scan :) x

Hi ladies can I rejoin you all? So as you probably all know:

Missed miscarriage at 12 weeks December 2017
Chemical March 2018
TFMR lost my son Charlie at 14 weeks August 2018
Chemical September 2018

Now I’m 5+2 in a new pregnancy and terrified. I just want it to go well but I doubt it will. Wish I could be more positive but I just seem to keep losing pregnancies. Feeling exhausted and bit sick so far but that’s all. Got a scan in one and a half weeks, will take it from there. Very nervous. Fingers crossed that this bean sticks and that it’s a healthy one 🤞

@Alicejj8x Lovely smiles 😊

@hayleyfx Its lovely to see you here, keeping fingers and toes crossed that everything goes swimmingly for you with this pregnancy.

Bless her :) she had her face pressed up onto my placenta so her little nose is all squished up xx

@hayleyfx good luck for
This pregnancy Hun sticky baby dust to you

@Haleyfx I remember you. Keeping everything crossed for you after all you've been through xx
@Alicejj8x Awesome pictures of your little girl, love that she's smiling away in there!

Also wanted to say sorry for not updating you all after losing my son in August. I distanced myself from all the pregnancy groups I was on as I found it too upsetting. Thought I’d share some photos with you all now though. I love my baby boy so much. We have remembered him in so many ways and I’ll never forget holding his tiny little hands. Hope his little brother or sister is doing okay and will continue to do so 🤞

@clairehr @Alicejj8x @Athers666 thank you all! Fingers crossed. Glad to hear you’re all doing well, lovely scan pictures x

Oh and since I last posted here, I got engaged!!

Love to Charlie xx can't begin to imagine how much you miss him.
Congratulations on your engagement as well!
