Navigating pregnancy after loss thread 3

[Cruz86]

New thread before the other one fills up completely! 🥰❤️🌈

@aesgriff amazing news! Congratulations on a little girl 💗💕🌈

Thank you girlies 🥰🥰 @arianasky @Annny27 @speake1 @flowergarden16 Xx

@barneymcgroo thank you! Me too, I really thought this is it we’re destined not to know! Xx

@Annny27 they said not to have any fizzy drinks but in the end I had a orange lucozade and that’s when baby got moving so that would be my top
tip! Xx

@Skl2021 it feels like now we know the gender it’s like it’s all a bit more real and makes the thought of losing baby harder 🥺we’ve brought our nursery furniture second hand but that’s it now. Next milestone will be the 20 week scan and then 24 weeks! It still feels like it’s going soooooooo slowly!! Xx

@aesgriff yes I feel like it's slowed down alot 🤦 I keep putting of buying things but I will have to start soon we literally have nothing from my other two as it was so long ago. Are you doing a gender reveal? X

@Skl2021 start off slowly and ease yourself into it love xx we done a cannon at home just us two
this afternoon and then we’ll do it again when we see family next weekend. It’s quite nice just us knowing and not having that pressure for now xx

@aesgriff yes we did the same nice to keep it to yourselves for a bit 💞 have my re scan in a week so hopefully if they get all the measurements I will relax a little and might start buying xx

I've got my 20 week scan on Wednesday - bricking it! Just hoping all is okay.

Hope your rescan goes well @Skl2021 - hope baby plays ball...

@barneymcgroo thanks! Good luck with yours too I'm sure everything will be fine 💞 xx

I've got various cousins and siblings with babies slightly older and younger than mine, so there is the enormous family library of things that comes your way the moment you announce you're pregnant... It's pretty brilliant, means you don't have to buy much. And as this is my last baby, can't wait for the next one to come along so I can hand EVERYTHING over!

Congrats @aesgriff 💕💕💕 fab news!!

@Skl2021 ive bought nothing yet - can't bring myself to! I've deffo felt more movement in last few days which is reassuring in one way but also gives me further anxiety (is it enough! Have I felt it in last few hours?!)

Has anyone else suffered with upper back pain? My back and ribs on one side are agony xx

Congratulations @aesgriff!! Another girl for the thread 🥰💗 Wonderful news xxx

@siobhanmt247 yes my boobs stopped hurting suddenly around then! If not a little earlier actually. I was so worried but all was fine, it's just where the placenta starts to take over x

Good luck with your rescan @Skl2021 ❤️

@barneymcgroo that's great u have people around that u can all pass stuff around! I'm the only one that's had kids up to now so no one to swap with 🤦 x

@Bridgey8 I don't know when to start 🙈 feel scared to start like I'm jinxing it. But I can't leave everything until last minute 🤣 my oh is desperate to start buying stuff. We haven't even announced the pregnancy yet. My movements are very unpredictable I think my anxiety is creeping up again the further I'm getting 🤦 constantly worrying about something. Been getting alot of random stabbing pains aswell and like u some pain under ribs. Hopefully nothing to worry about! X

@Cruz86 thanks it's not until next week! X

Symptoms are back again this morning thankfully. The doctors also put the wrong blood years through for me. They've put the 21d test through and checked my progesterone. Its 79.5 nmol though which seems good for ten weeks, it's nice to get a bit of reassurance

@Cruz86 @HoneyLemon29 @aesgriff congratulations, so thrilled for you all 🥰🌈😍🥰💛

@siobhanmt247 the same happened to me at 10 weeks aswell it felt like my boobs deflated overnight 😂 it really scared me but so far so good 🙏🏻🌈

I also haven't bought anything yet although I want to start to save paying big amounts out towards then end ( well I tell a lie I have bought DP a wales rugby and Liverpool football baby grows to give him on Father's Day 😂 not my cup of tea on the baby but he'll love it ) but nothing practical anyway.

So I'm 14 weeks tomorrow and I swear I've felt movement? On my right side low down like a bubble popping is the only way I can describe it? I have no idea if that is movement?

@arianasky aww I'm sure he will love that 💞🙊 yes it very well could be! Usually starts like bubbly or butterflies 🤞 xx

@Skl2021 hmm I'll keep track of it and write it down when I notice it haha it's definitely something I haven't felt before 🤞🏻

@arianasky yes if u keep feeling it I would say it was baby! How exciting! Becomes a bit more real when u feel them moving xx

I am in exactly the same boat as you. 43 with a just 6 year old. Tested last week and now 6w2d. We had two miscarriages three years ago at 6 and mmc at 10 weeks. So properly taking each day as it comes xx

@Skl2021 ooh exciting 🤞🏻🙏🏻

Aww @arianasky I am going to be 14w tomorrow. My symptoms became much less noticeable since 12w and feeling less preggo than at 6w so can't wait to feel something! So exciting.

Best of luck to

Sorry my phones just posted!
I was saying best of luck @winsones @alvaryder - the first few weeks are agony but they do pass. Take one day at a time x

@arianasky when is your due date? X

@Arwen7 22nd November you? Ah I still have nausea and vomiting but it's only in the mornings now, and the odd twinge in the breasts now and then but that's it. I'm hoping it is baby moving 🙏🏻🤞🏻

Yes hoping we start feeling them soon @arianasky !
Mine is 22/11/22 too ;) x

@Arwen7 ooh how exciting, lovely to have someone with the exact same due date 💕
