I had my scan, measuring 7+1 and a heart beat! I have a retroverted uterus which I didn't know but apart from that all looking normal!
@Carolinesyear wonderful news! So happy for you ❤️🤞🏻

Morning all sorry to jump on. I've got a private scan today from last period date im 6 weeks 5 days today, I've lost 2 Ive Lost in last 18 months so very worried also I've had no signs of pregs if I didn't do a test couple weeks back I wouldn't have known! Anyone had no signs and been ok? X
pocketfullofstorms · 20/08/2021 08:00

I woke up to some brown spotting, I'm only 4 weeks. Feel so worried but trying to stay calm.

Whitechar · 20/08/2021 08:06

I feel for you that happened to the last 2 pregnancy I had, lost 2 in last 18 months had to wait till 6 weeks pregs for scan to see a heart beat went back week later still heart beat there but not grown like it should have to then Go back a week later to no heart beat. I hope all ok try stay positive I no it's easier said then done.
Im 6 weeks 5 days today I've got a private scan this evening but I'm just not having a signs of pregs if I didn't do a test wouldn't have known I was. I'm a nervous wreck. X

Whitechar · 20/08/2021 08:07

But May I had that can be also normal for spotting beginning of pregs. X

I'm sorry for your loses, that sounds really hard 😢 I feel the worst bit is not being able to check as it's too early. I hope yours goes well tonight x
Carolinesyear · 20/08/2021 09:34

@pocketfullofstorms it's awful isn't it, I've had light spotting on and off right the way through, it terrifies me. I really hope I make it to the 12 week date when apparently the placenta takes over and the spotting stops (hopefully)

ninadust · 20/08/2021 09:38

Hello :) hope you don't mind if I join!

I got my BFP yesterday and due early May. Excited but also petrified!!! Xx

Whitechar · 20/08/2021 10:01

@ninadust hope all goes well for you. X
Congratulations. Im hoping
Mine is good news today. X

FinnsMammy · 20/08/2021 10:11

@pocketfullofstorms spotting can be normal so try not to worry too much especially at4 to 5 weeks. Some people just spot and go on to have perfectly healthy babies this is what I was told when I went in for my scan due to spotting . I spotted all through my last pregnancy on and off and ended up miscarrying at 11 weeks even after I saw the heartbeat at 8 weeks but I read so many forums on spotting during this time and in most cases from what I read the outcome was good! Keep an eye on it but there’s no harm asking your doctor to check your HCG levels to give you some reassurance. It’s frightening to see and even now I’m 6+2 with this baby I’m afraid to wipe every time I go to the toilet I case I see blood. Hopefully in your case it’s just once off left over implantation blood. Good luck and Keep us posted xx

FinnsMammy · 20/08/2021 10:13

@Laurenxx94 thinking of you ! Hope everything went well yesterday. X

Eeee so exciting. Good luck! Xxx

Laurenxx94 · 20/08/2021 10:36

@FinnsMammy hey!
I seen my baby and heartbeat but they then had to get my in for emergency laprascopy as they thought I also had a ectopic so had an operation. All was ok though and just had a look said they didn't touch uterus.
Now they're not scanning me for a week and won't know if baby is ok till then! Bloody awful xx

Carolinesyear · 20/08/2021 10:41

@Laurenxx94 what made them think you were having an ectopic? Are you still in pain/spotting. Great news that baby is ok and they are taking things seriously and doing everything right for you!
@pocketfullofstorms and @FinnsMammy I also think there are varying degrees of spotting, mine has been so light but I'm a natural pessimist, when I talk about my spotting some might think I'm having a light period like bleed but actually I study my toilet roll every time and the slightest off colour I wail omg I'm spotting! However some people aare naturally optimistic and may not even notice if they had my level. I know of people who have full on bleeds that go on to have healthy babies... no telling what will happen I suppose

chloehunt · 20/08/2021 11:00

Might want to make a new thread guys, it stops at 1k

FinnsMammy · 20/08/2021 11:29

@Laurenxx94 glad your baby is ok but it’s horrible that you have to go through this hopefully by next week all will be ok and you can start to enjoy your pregnancy xx

@Carolinesyear definitely I’m an optimistic but there was no missing my spotting! It was super light and never red but it was there on and off pretty much the whole way through . X

Carolinesyear · 20/08/2021 11:59

@FinnsMammy that's rather worrying as that's exactly what mine is like. Definitely not normal is it. Did you have a missed miscarriage?
I knew my reassurance from my scan wouldn't last long :(

FinnsMammy · 20/08/2021 12:45

@Carolinesyear everyone in different and it could just be normal for you but I never spotted with my son so for me it wasn’t normal. It started off around 12DPO after I got my BFP pink /Brown for about 8 days then stopped until I was almost 8weeks had a tiny bit then nothing went in for a scan all looked good on the scan but then after the scan it started again pretty much every day until 10 weeks when I got one drop of red fresh blood spotting so I went in again and had a scan but the baby had died a few days earlier. I miscarried a week later naturally at 11 weeks. It’s 50/50 when you spot abd I hope you have a better outcome then me but I know how it feels it’s just awful so I can understand how it’s hard to accept the pregnancy until you get to 12 weeks. I have booked myself a reassurance scan for 8 weeks! I really hope this is good news this time but we just never know until we have our baby in our arms . Good luck xx

FinnsMammy · 20/08/2021 12:50

@Carolinesyear I just wanted to add to trust your instincts when I had my scan at 10 weeks And my baby had died the doctor said to me after that she could see it on my face when I arrived that I knew the outcome. I had a dream 3 nights before that I miscarried and this would of lined up with the dates that the baby had passed I think deep down we know our bodies best and I think from early on I hadnt accepted that pregnancy as maybe I was protecting myself. Good luck and I really hope we both get our April 2022 babies xx

Is anyone using the pregnancy+ app? You can see your baby week by week, in real size! It’s amazing

wannabeamummysobad · 20/08/2021 15:39

@Derbee I've never heard of it. How many weeks are you?

Kaylie12 · 20/08/2021 16:00

Hello I was put on folic acid 5mg long term I just can’t wait for my scan I have a early one next Wednesday I’m currently on antibiotics now for urine infection and today been getting back ache and belly ache feel achey all over also. I feel so anxious about everything meant to be the time you enjoy it all where I don’t feel like that cause I just don’t want to miscarry again! So the progesterone is good for the baby and pregnancy? X

WorryMcGee · 20/08/2021 19:56

Hi everyone, a worrier here! Tested yesterday after period was late and I just felt like it wasn’t coming…the test said I’m 2-3 weeks pregnant, which makes sense when I think of the only time it could have happened Blush I’m scared because I haven’t been taking any vitamins (we weren’t “trying” but I had coil removed in anticipation of it later in the year) and my diet has been pretty low on fruit/veg recently, maybe only 1 or 2 portions a day… I’ve started taking them now but I’m really worried. Does it matter as much as the internet seems to suggest it does?! :-(
