I've just found out Im pregnant - due Mid March next year so literally only 4 weeks. Dying to tell people already 🤦🏼‍♀️ anybody else in a similar boat? Who have you told how did you announce it?

It'd be lovely to chat to people in a similar situation!

Hey all….. got brown discharge when wiping this morning 😔 am 6 weeks today as per LMP. This is how it started before….
Can’t believe im going to probably go through this all again 😭

Hi @AlwaysSeekingComfort

I'm sorry this must be so stressful.
I know it must feel like that but there's so many people that have spotting and continue with a healthy pregnancy. Really hoping for you.

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 10:24

@AlwaysSeekingComfort I'm so so sorry 😭😭 I'm literally crying with you. Im a day ahead of you and had blood dripping into the toilet this morning. I'm devastated. Im sending you huge hugs xx

AlwaysSeekingComfort · 20/07/2021 10:27

Oh @Ell17 bless you. I’m so very sorry. It’s so cruel isn’t it. Sending you hugs 💐

@JuneySunshine I am trying to be positive but this is how it started before and I’ve got cramps so assume this is the beginning of a misscarriage 😔

@Ell17 So sorry lovely ❤️ Sending hugs, take it easy ❤️ X

whenlifegivesyoulemonss · 20/07/2021 10:37

@AlwaysSeekingComfort hope your ok, it’s the worst feeling in the world ❤️ Maybe it’s just a little breakthrough bleeding, fingers crossed for you X

DeadPapaToothwort · 20/07/2021 12:39

@Ell17 @AlwaysSeekingComfort I’m so so sorry. It’s so horribly stressful isn’t it. I really feel for you both, I know exactly what this feels like. Take care of yourselves. I know it’s bloody annoying when people say it happened to them and they were fine, and last week when it happened to me I wanted to punch everyone that told me that. BUT, I had spotting last week at 5 weeks, had a scan at EPU and all was well. After 3 MC it was absolutely not how I expected it to go. That’s probably not terribly helpful, but it’s possible that things might still be ok in there. Either way, be really kind to yourselves Flowers

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 12:42

@DeadPapaToothwort thank you ♥️♥️ and it is helpful to hear that. I feel like you can say that because you know. I have to tell myself that it's over, and if it's not it's a fabulous surprise. But mentally I need to get my head around it happening again. That's how I work 😢
I called EPU again and they've put a referral in. I thought either way this needs to be on my records x

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 12:45

@whenlifegivesyoulemonss thank you ♥️

toadstool32 · 20/07/2021 12:46

Hi all, I'm 6+5 but had a scan yesterday and was measuring two days ahead with a little heartbeat Smile

AlwaysSeekingComfort · 20/07/2021 13:07

Thanks @DeadPapaToothwort for your kind words 💐 yes I think because I’ve experienced it recently so know all the signs to look out for….. it’s so hard to be positive and not think it’s all happening again. But so glad your scan @ the EPU was all well 💐

EPU have booked me in for Friday for a scan…. If I even make it to then, I may miscarry completely before. But I am not going to stress myself though, as when I do it makes me ill and it’s just not good. So going to try and relax for the next few days and worry about it when I need to worry.

whenlifegivesyoulemonss · 20/07/2021 13:49

@toadstool32 congratulations!! That must of been lovely seeing the heartbeat 🥰 How are you feeling? X

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 15:04

@toadstool32 huge congrats ♥️

@AlwaysSeekingComfort I've got the same mindset as you. I've literally cried all morning, my husband came home from work and we sat and talked everything through and now I can try and be more rational. My private scan is 2:30 on Fri, if I don't hear from EPU before then. Last time, it took 3.5 weeks of back and forth until they gave me meds so I just hope it's quicker this time 🙏🏻

Deedee08 · 20/07/2021 15:11

@toadstool32 congratulations
I cant wait to go in for mine too. I am really nervous to book but you just gave me some confidence.

AlwaysSeekingComfort · 20/07/2021 15:13

@Ell17 my EPU scan is 2:30 Friday!!! If you don’t hear from EPU and get booked sooner, we will both be having a scan at the same time! I honestly hope it’s positive news for both of us 💐 I’ve had cramping all day so not feeling positive whatsoever although am feeling calm as I just think I know what to expect… I’ve been through it once and I will make it through it again if it’s the case. (Although hoping for a miracle all is fine). Keep us updated! X

@toadstool32 sorry hun, I missed your post as have been abit all over the place today! Congrats on your BFP 💐 amazing x

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 15:25

@AlwaysSeekingComfort I take comfort in knowing we'll be going through it together at the same time ♥️ I'm hoping for the best but thinking the worst. My boobs seem less painful too. I'm really hoping you come away with good news! I just really didn't think this would happen twice in a row, everyone told me it was so unlikely. I feel like I wasn't prepared for the possibility xx

AlwaysSeekingComfort · 20/07/2021 15:34

@Ell17 same 💐 we will get through it no matter what. I was also told it’s highly unlikely it would happen again… and never thought it would happen twice in a row… but here we both are experiencing MC symptoms… here’s hoping for some miracles aye ❤️ X

YourVagesty · 20/07/2021 18:58

@ell17 @AlwaysSeekingComfort

Same here. I'm 7 weeks and started bleeding earlier. Sending you both much love. Flowers

AlwaysSeekingComfort · 20/07/2021 19:01

@YourVagesty so sorry to hear lovely 💐
What colour is your blood? Are you going to try to your local EPU? X

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 19:04

@YourVagesty thank you ♥️ and back at you. Sending positive thoughts and hugs x

SecondCityShark · 20/07/2021 19:12

@AlwaysSeekingComfort

Its red. I don't have major cramps going on though, just a bit of a gripey 'period pain' feeling. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow so I figured Id just show them pictures then and ask for their opinion. I read that if it is a miscarriage, you can't stop it once it's started so if that's what it is, I don't suppose much will help now.

Thank you for your support, and you @Ell17

SecondCityShark · 20/07/2021 19:14

Name change fail there - this is YourVagesty. I'll switch back now.

AlwaysSeekingComfort · 20/07/2021 19:21

@YourVagesty Oh right ok…. I’ve read soooo many mixed threads on here r.e. Ppl having brown and red blood… it’s so 50/50 with outcomes all of their outcomes.

I hope your doc appointment goes ok and everything all is well 💐

YourVagesty · 20/07/2021 19:25

@AlwaysSeekingComfort

I know, it's hard to tell. I had a read around the Internet earlier and basically, I think you need a crystal ball. I showed my partner a picture I took earlier of the blood and he said it looked like quite a lot. Its not as heavy as a period though. If it is a miscarriage, I suppose that will become clear in the next 24 hours.

Ell17 · 20/07/2021 19:28

@YourVagesty it is a mixed bag online. Keep us posted 🙏🏻♥️
