EPU scan tomorrow. Could say pre match nerves have kicked in

So I have my 7 week scan tomorrow at the EPU. This is my 5th pregnancy in a year, the last 4 ended In early miscarriage, chemical, early miscarriage again, missed miscarriage and now here I am hoping for the bloody best!

I had a wobble yesterday and convinced myself
I'll have another missed miscarriage. Stupidly took a test with a very diluted wee, but thankfully came up strong. Didn't put my mind at ease😂 This morning I have woke up listened to motivational podcasts, sat and manifested all the happy things that can come from tomorrow! But I'm still a bag of nerves.

My symptoms haven't really been strong, had bursts of feeling sick, but not throwing up and that comes goes. Breast tenderness which has also been coming and going. But other than that I'm okay.

But I'm hoping for the best outcome tomorrow. I don't know if I can pick myself up again after another loss

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you, OP. It must be such an anxious time Flowers

MollySxx · 08/09/2021 09:18

@piglet81 so kind of you, thank you🥰

And anxious is the only word to put it mildly! I spend most my day poking my boobs go check if they are still tender🤦🏼‍♀️ the first week of finding out I was very calm, but I would say the last 2 days I've been a woman demented. Just want good news for once🤞🏼

Good luck today. Hopefully all is well and once you see that heartbeat the risks go down significantly. I had hardly any symptoms at 7 weeks bar the odd burst of nausea and I'm now 19 and going strong

Nuuktown · 08/09/2021 09:33

Good luck OP Flowers

MollySxx · 08/09/2021 10:57

Thank you lovely ladies! I think I'm going to have a pamper day, face mask, nice bath (Luke warm in this weather🥵) and make a nice dinner for me and my partner tonight.

What will be will be I guess x

Good luck Thanks I'll be thinking of you tomorrow xx

Good luck for tomorrow - I went for an early scan at 8 weeks following two lost babies.

My symptoms were coming and going and the sonographer found a heartbeat so fast. They will know you have lost babies and I found them to be very sensitive.

Is anyone allowed with you tomorrow? My partner wasn't allowed but still took me and waited outside

MollySxx · 08/09/2021 16:28

@welshladywhois40 so glad you've said about the symptoms because mine are definitely coming and going and it's panicking me a little. And they aren't strong, to the point I'm being sick. But I've felt sick.

And my partner is allowed, we just have to go 45 minutes before our time slot to both have a Covid test

Good luck today @MollySxx 🤞🏻What time is your appointment? Make sure the sonographer knows your history and they'll do everything they can to put you at ease. It's still early days for symptoms so I wouldn't worry about that. Mine were on and off until around 9/10 weeks when the nausea really ramped up. It's finally gone now (I hope) at 17 weeks. Sending positive vibes!! ❤ xx

MollySxx · 09/09/2021 08:32

@Flopsy88 I'm hoping they know the history because I hate having to explain it all. That's happened on a few occasions🤦🏼‍♀️

Slightly crapping my pants, but we are on our way🤞🏼

Good luck MollyS! Keeping everything crossed for you xx

Harlequin1088 · 09/09/2021 08:40

Best of luck to you OP. I had an ectopic pregnancy back in April and am currently 8 weeks pregnant. I absolutely convinced myself this one was going to be ectopic too and every twinge, cramp and even a fart(!) had me sobbing to my partner that I was going to end up in hospital again.

We had our first scan at 6 weeks and couldn't believe it when we saw little bean just chilling out there in the womb exactly where they're supposed to be with their little heartbeat bobbing away on the screen.

We have another reassurance scan tomorrow too and I'm hoping we have more positive news.

Sending you lots of love and best wishes for your scan! I know how nerve wracking it all is when you've previously had losses so I really feel for you xx

MollySxx · 09/09/2021 10:30

Huge update ladies!

I've just got home and still in disbelief. But we saw our little bean and most importantly a pulsing heartbeat. They said everything looks fine and perfect.

I'm 7 weeks today counting from my first day of my last period, but they've dated me 6w 1d. But said that's normal.

Im so glad all is ok so far, and hope to see more updates of the same. 😌

Flopsy88 · 09/09/2021 12:07

Ah that's wonderful! I'm so pleased for you xx

Bells3032 · 09/09/2021 12:18

ah yay that's a great update. don't worry about the date. it moves all over the place. they're so tiny at this point it's hard to measure. you you may have ovulated a little later than planned. I measured a week behind my LMP too and now 19 weeks :)

Congratulations

Incase you didn't know your name and dob is in the photo though

If you report it they'll remove it

welshladywhois40 · 09/09/2021 14:35

Congratulations! That must be a relief.

Now just take each week as they come - I found it easier not to look too far into the future.

And when I had an early scan they did say that they can be upto 5 days out on dating at this point.

But you got a heartbeat which is a wonderful thing to see!

MollySxx · 09/09/2021 14:52

@welshladywhois40 I honestly felt so much anxiety lifted off me. Early days I know. But I've never got this far in a pregnancy to see a heartbeat. As far as I've got if a possible sighting of a yolk sac. All the others have been empty of I've bled before even reaching a scan.

They have offered me another scan in 2 weeks for own self reassurance and then they'll release me into antenatal care
