I'm absolutely petrified, I've handled things pretty well and positively until now 😩

I'm may I had an MMC, didn't find out until I started spotting 2 days before my 12 week scan so all epu scans have been bad news, I am terrified and actually feel like I don't want to go tomorrow, how can I be in that room again? Right now I'm pregnant but that could all change tomorrow 😩

I can't stop crying at the thought of being there I don't know how to handle this?

hope you are ok, how did you get on? Totally understandable to feel that way, I do too!

@BellaNutella88 thank you, everything went perfectly we saw a tiny heartbeat and my dates are spot on. I will now have scans every 2 weeks and given progesterone. So fingers crossed 🌈. Are you in a similar situation?

Im so pleased it went well for you, fingers crossed for your next scans. I’ve had an ectopic 18 months ago and a delayed miscarriage earlier this year. Just short of 6 weeks now and have a scan tomorrow and absolutely dreading going back into that room so I totally get it.

It's awful isn't it, so sorry for your losses. I was extremely lucky today, the room on the epau was closed off for some reason they'd moved their ultrasound for today to another ward... Which meant I was in a different room! I was so relieved and when she saw the heartbeat I just burst into tears I didn't get to see my babies heartbeat at all earlier this year he died at 6 weeks but my sac kept growing so I had no idea u til 12 weeks x

Thank you. And sorry for your losses too- it really is awful. That sounds so tough for you, glad it worked out that you went elsewhere for the scan. Really hope it works out for you. Be kind to yourself- pregnancy after loss is really rough xx

@BellaNutella88 thank you, and you, hopefully we will get our rainbows and all the worry will be worth it xx

@Kellyaust aw thank you! The good news it wasn’t ectopic but wasn’t a lot to see yet and I expected to see a little more so now worrying of course. Have to go back in a few weeks.

Kellyaust · 10/09/2023 08:33

@BellaNutella88 aw anything before 6 weeks if expect to not see anything so try not to worry. Have you booked back in? We could just about see our tiny dot with a flicker heartbeat and I was 6 weeks and that was internal x
