So scared for my first scan after a MMC only a couple of months back. My bloating has gone right down, I havnt been sick since yesterday morning. Which is strange because I was being sick 4/5 times a day facing the possibility of having to be admitted for fluids.
I'm so scared sometbing will be wrong again. I think I'm only around 9+2, just so worried they won't find anything again. Sad

Good luck OP.
I'm so sorry about your MMC. However your symptoms going is not an indication of history repeating itself. I was as sick as often as you and it all stopped around 9 weeks (I'll admit, it made me anxious too!) but then it started again a few days later.
Do you have someone going with you?xx

I’m really sorry for your previous loss :-( I just wanted to say that I had lots of worried about this too - my constant nausea disappeared off the face of the earth at 8 weeks and left me feeling very worried.
I’m now 13 weeks and everything is ok after a scan yesterday. Try not to worry if you can - just because t happened before doesn’t mean it will again, and the odds are all in your favour - it’s much more likely for a pregnancy to go well than go wrong. Flowers

Thank you ladies! I guess your right!
I have DH coming with me. I know the odds are in my favour I just feel like I'm such an unlucky person.
The whole way through my previous pregnancy, I was saying it's gonna be bad news, everyone kept telling me otherwise, and I was right!
Although last time I did have bleeding every 10 days.
Iv been dling tests to see if my hormone levels are rising, I can't tell it's so frustrating :(
Thank you for your lovely words ladies..
I will let you know how the scan goes this evening Thanks
