Navigating pregnancy after loss thread 2

[Cruz86]

New thread as we all continue our journeys in pregnancy 🌈❤️

@speake1 @Cruz86 thankyou ❤️ xx

@flowergarden16 ah that's amazing news! Congratulations 🎉

So I should be 11 weeks tomorrow and since Sunday my breasts just don't feel as full as they were, I'm still getting twinges in them but they feel they're normal size? Has anyone else experienced this at all?

@arianasky I think that's normal mine change daily even now 💞 xx

@Skl2021 thank you, it's just another thing I was stressing about 🙄 I hope you take time for yourself today lovely 💕

@arianasky I think your symptoms will come and go now your nearly 12 weeks which I know causes major anxiety! Just more things to stress over! I feel less pregnant than before 🤦 no symptoms no bump but I'm sure everything will be ok 🤞 I'm still sat watching TV I need to tidy the house 🙈 xx

@arianasky yes same here. Was worried but everything was fine

The sonographer today said it's totally normal around 10/11 weeks as your hormones level out x

@Skl2021 I know I wish there was a way we could know how everything was going without going to a scan. Carrying on watching the tv you deserve it 💕

@flowergarden16 ahh I'm glad you've said that hopefully I'm just going through the same thing then

@arianasky a nice little viewing window in the tummy would be handy 🤣🙊 xx

I had a meltdown yesterday because:

• didn't feel a sick
• didn't feel tired
• actually fancied a glass of wine (quite a big drinker usually) but have totally be repulsed by the idea until this week
• heart rate had dropped
• boobs felt less sore and full

But today was all good. It gets in our head and it's so hard x

@Skl2021 definitely 😂😂

@flowergarden16 it is horrible how our minds all overthink

@arianasky my boobs stopped hurting completely at around 9 weeks. They're still bigger than they were but literally not painful in the slightest!

That would be so handy wouldn't it @Skl2021 😂😂

Xx

@arianasky I am the same as @Cruz86 my boobs haven't been sore for weeks now but they are bigger and growing (and soooo veiny haha) it's like someone's taken a blue crayon to my chest hahah

@Cruz86 how is that not possible in this day and age 🤣🤔 even the tellytubbies had them 🙊🤣 xx

Hi ladies,

@flowergarden16 so happy for you! 💕 Hope you are feeling better now.

My scan was good too. 11+3 so measuring ahead by two days and everything was fine. Can’t believe this is actually happening after so much heartbreak so we are very happy.
I am going back for the nuchal in two weeks.

@Skl2021 @Tulip1112 so sorry today it’s a tough day for you, thinking of you and do something nice for yoursef 💐

@arianasky My symptoms have lessened during the last week or so too and yes breasts almost not sore anymore and nausea just sometimes instead of every day but again everything was fine so seems like a common thing. I wish we could be like some other women who haven’t miscarried before and would probably be very glad to be feeling better!!

Yay congrats @Arwen7 ! Xx

@LovesFood1987 I'm so sorry for your previous losses. Did you get the scan done at a private clinic or hospital? If the heartbeat was very slow the hospital should have booked you back for another scan in a week or so. If you got the scan doen in a private clinic I would request one from the hospital. If it was really early the heartbeat maybe just started and it will take a little while for the speed to pick up x

Congratulations @Arwen7 🎉🎉

@Arwen7 lovely news 💞🌈 xx

Great news on ur scans ladies 🌈 x

Hi Ladies,

So today I’m finally joining you 😊 I got my positive test second cycle, over the moon and was quite emotional this morning! I was having symptoms but kept trying to self doubt or maybe protect my mind in thinking I wasn’t! I’ve already ordered a little rainbow announcement card off Etsy for our parents, so excited to tell them. Baby will be due 11th Jan 2023. I know I’m not out of the woods yet as I had a MMC in Feb and I’m already dreading the scan but conceiving was one hurdle for me and I’m going to Devon tomorrow for a getaway and I’m so happy I can celebrate knowing I’m going to have my rainbow baby 🌈❤️

I hope you are all doing ok? I haven’t read any of the thread yet.

xx

@Lizm1990 congratulations
@flowergarden16 and anyone else who is concerned by a heart rate drop. Don't be! Mines dropped around 7/8 weeks this pregnancy (currently 14 weeks) and 7/8 weeks in my last pregnancy (mmc). It means nothing other than your heart has adjusted to the additional blood volume. It will prob pick up again in a few months as you get bigger.

Huge congrats @Lizm1990 ! Welcome to this very supportive group x

Thank you @Raindrops2015 mine is back up today. Really can't trust the Apple Watch and I probably need to stop obsessing over symptoms of lack thereof! X

Thank you. That's just what I needed to hear x
