Hey - just wondering if anyone is still 'out there'?? Thought I'd start a new thread with lots of happy thoughts!

Delgirl, Bunny, Nellyk?? anyone else pregnant after a m/c or loss?
I am doing really well, have started to relax more and more every day. Nearly 27 weeks pregnant now. We decided not to find out the sex ( but I think it's another girl!!) Starting to think about names as well.
Hope everyone is doing really really well.

Hana - glad to hear you are doing well.

After 3 early miscarriages last year I will be 39 weeks tomorrow and cannot believe we will have ds3 very soon.

Good idea to start this as hopefully it will be an inspiration tp those who have suffered a miscarriage/s.

hi hana and eyelash

I'm so glad things are going well for you both and your pregnancies are really well established.

I am having my first scan this week and still nervous about poss 'missed' miscarriage so will not be able to relax into it until after then. Hana I am sure you will know what I mean. I am not sure what the odds are ie if you have a complete m/c are you less or more likely to have a missed m/c etc etc. Need to stop obsessing really.

Eyelash, I will keep a look out for your birth announcement really soon, good luck with the the labour .

Nellyk - the waiting is such an anxious time....fingers crossed that everything is as is should be....lots of luck

Eyelash, any day now then!! Last year seems such a long time ago for me, I really do feel like a different person. Have a wonderful birth for your ds3, will be looking out for you!

hi can I join? I had a m/c last december when i was 13wks,I am now 10 wks pg and absolutely terrified My ms seems to have faded and I am thinking that it may be a bad sign but i know i am probably being a tad neurotic.I know that you will understand how I feel having been through it all yourselves.i dont get my scan till i am 14 wks because of a backlog.
Eyelash I cant believe that your duedate is nearly upon us,I am posting under a different name now but you helped me after my mc last year.

Hi Hana, thanks for starting this thread. I've not posted much on the other one as it makes me a bit uncomfortable, don't ask me why, must be the hormones. 27 weeks, wow. I'm 10 weeks tomorrow so 27 seems such a long way off. Suffering miserably with M/S at the mo but hopefully it's a good sign.

Names are already chosen, me and DH picked them just before he died so no surprises in store apart from the sex of course. Part of me is tempted to find out but I know I shouldn't. We'll see. Had 2 scans already and another booked at 12 weeks which was going to be a nuchal fold but I've more or less decided not to have the test now as I wouldn't do anything about it even if the results weren't so good.

Eyelash, 39 weeks,how exciting - I shall watch out for your announcement very soon then

NellyK, I feel for you. I'm coming up to the time when I had my 1st missed m/c and even though I feel yuk mostly, I still wonder some times. I don't think i'll believe it until I have that baby in my arms.

Aww Mitzi, it's really hard isn't it? Could you not ask your midwife if you can have an earlier one just to put your mind at rest. I've had one 'anxiety' scan. THe 1st one I had was 2 days before that but that was at the fertility unit. Do you have an EPU near to you, i'd give them a call.

nellyk · 24/09/2004 11:52

to me one of the hardest things was the wait between m/c and getting pg again. It was 3 or 4 months but seemed like ages.

I had fully expected the worst at my dating scan and warned DH that I would not be going back to work if anything was wrong. I was very relieved to see the heartbeat on the screen but I have extended the nookie ban until I hit 14 weeks. Don't want aything to go wrong.. I think he is getting fed up but you can't help how you feel can you.

eyelash · 24/09/2004 12:01

Great news nellyk.

Mitzi - I am glad I helped you but like Delgirl have found it really difficult to post on the miscarriage threads since being well established with this pregnancy. I think for me it is the need to focus on this baby and move forward. But I hope once we have had this baby to be able to offer some support again to others. I know I found mumsnet very supportive.

How is everybody else?
