I have my dating scan tomorrow at 1.30pm and the panic is beginning to overwhelm me.

I have had 5 miscarriages and a tfmr at 23 weeks last Christmas. I have heard “there is no heartbeat” more times than I can remember.

My last pregnancy started to go wrong at the 12 week scan. Problems were picked up and it was another 10 weeks of specialists and scans and appointments before we made the decision to end the pregnancy. I cannot bare to be told bad news tomorrow. I honestly do not know how I will cope.

Not really sure what I am asking. Just in need of support.

Just want to say thinking of you and I am sorry you have had to to through everything that you have already. Try and keep positive, I have felt the fear before all my scans even with none of the history you are carrying with you. Sending happy, Good luck vibes...let us know how you get on x

Thanks everyone.

sleepwarrior I am going with my husband.

I was offered scans every 2 weeks with my history but turned them down with the logic that I’ve had good scans before and then it just goes wrong anyway. It’s helped me to try and zone it all out but now tomorrow is looming it’s bringing all the anxiety to the surface.

I'm so sorry for what you've been through. I too understand the terror. I had a tfmr in October 2016 and had had previous losses. It was at our 12 week scan that the issues that led to the tfmr were first picked up. I've since had a successful pregnancy and was anxious all the way through. I had 2 weekly scans and was extremely nervous ahead of each one. We had genetic testing after the tfmr although I fell pregnant before we got the results. The tests helped a small amount but the fear never really left me. I guess I'm trying to say that what you're feeling seems completely normal and natural to me but that a successful pregnancy is absolutely possible. Hoping all will be ok for you x
