SCARED baby isn't going to make it - anyone lost all symptoms and been ok?

I posted last week about blood in mucus etc but I'll explain everything to make more clear.

Monday last week - overwhelming feel that someone wasn't right (intuition) and all symptoms stopped (I had very strong metal taste in mouth, boobs tingled from time to time, cried lots about silly things & waves of nausea in evenings)

Tuesday night - dark red blood in mucus

Wed onwards - pinky blood when wiping on toilet but no spotting. More so when I strained, not really had any for last couple of days.

Friday - had a scan and measured 5+5 with gestational sac and yolk sac but no baby. I'd had a blood test on Tuesday which put me at 6+3 on Friday however Dr at EPU said that I should ignore the blood test as not always accurate plus the scan dates tied in with my period, the blood test didn't. Told to come for another scan after a week (booked in for Friday morning).

So the scan didn't confirm anything but I can't help but think all is over. The bleeding was never much and wasn't like last time I MC, it's not the bleeding that's made me think it's over - it's the symptoms just going like that and then the bleeding started soon after plus cramping. No cramping anymore, just worry as it's a week of no longer FEELING pregnant. I know it's only early days and some people don't even feel the slightest bit different til further gone but because I had this overwhelming taste in my mouth etc, I can't help but worry. This week wait is AGONY!!!

Anyone had similar and been ok - any hope???

Good luck from me too, Looney.

Bellie · 01/11/2007 17:02

looney - just wanted to say good luck for tomorrow - what time is your scan booked for?

looneytune · 01/11/2007 20:25

Thanks everyone, I'm overwhelmed!

I'm sorry I've not been back til now....I've had a TERRIBLE day, as if I needed other stuff on top of this worry!! Had a complaint from OFSTED today (for those who don't know...I'm a childminder and don't worry, I've done nothing wrong - been set up by OFSTED because I spoke up about stuff!! ) and......dh got notice he'll probably be made redundant in couple of weeks - we sooooo can't afford it. BUT, if this baby is ok, that's all that matters!!! I'm just scared things like this normally happen in 3's!

Thanks again for thinking of me and sorry about the moan.

Hogwarts - you're back!! Are you back on your thread.....will go check later as haven't been on there today xxxxxxx

Heated · 01/11/2007 20:41

Good luck tomorrow, will be thinking of you.

Just to add I knew I was pg by about week 3, ballooned in size for 2 weeks & then went back down to my usual size, had bad pain at about week 7/8 & slightly bloody mucus discharge which I think was about the time I would have had a period/ maybe implantation pain and then no other signs of pg. In fact I was sort of surprised at the 12 week scan to see a baby. I had another scare at 17 wks thanks to food poisoning from a local hotel & I started to contract. I'd also been to Florida in the first few weeks of pg and gone on all the roller-coaster rides and the water-park slides - surprising resilient these babies sometimes

Let us know how you go xx

looneytune · 01/11/2007 21:25

Thanks heated, glad it was ok for you, you must have been so scared. Fingers crossed I'm also one of the lucky ones

looneytune · 02/11/2007 07:40

Bellie - sorry, forgot to say. Appointment is at 9am and last time we were there a couple of hours. About an hour to wait for the actual scan. Fingers x's today is quicker!

Bellie · 02/11/2007 10:49

Looney thats brilliant news!!

Congratulations

lomond · 02/11/2007 10:49

Congratulations, so pleased for you!

sweetkitty · 02/11/2007 10:51

whoooooooooohooooooooooo looneytune that is the most fantastic brilliant news

lemonaidtreasonandplot · 02/11/2007 10:53

Congratulations!

Most doctors wouldn't even give you a number of weeks pregnant based on the blood test as levels vary HUGELY between individuals. Your scan dates match up with your cycle dates, so everything sounds on track -- very pleased to hear that today's scan confirmed it.

looneytune · 02/11/2007 10:57

Thanks everyone, I honestly thought that was it again! No idea why had the bleeding but they are not worried at this stage And I'll totally ignore the blood test, that certainly didn't help me!!!

ronshar · 02/11/2007 11:00

I have been looking for you to wish you luck. Looks like you didnt need it.
Fanatstic news for you Looney. Take it easy as much as you can and look after yourself.

looneytune · 02/11/2007 11:02

ClaphamLauren · 02/11/2007 11:04

Great news Looney!!! Am absolutely thrilled for you, I know how terrifying it is as I was in the same situation not so long ago.

Hurrah!!! Keep positive

madmouse · 02/11/2007 11:18

Looneytunes - I saw your thread earlier in the week but had nothing useful to add so I didn't post but I just wanted to say I am really thrilled for you! Congratulations!!
