Hi! Just had a BFP after a MC at 8 weeks last year, and am looking for folks to breathe through the next few weeks with. I am in an age bracket where MC risk is high and I’m trying not to get ahead of myself!

My back has been slightly sore too @Dani46 I am trying to just put everything down to all my insides moving about.
I do feel different this time round with symptom wise etc 🤞🏻 as silly as it sounds it just keep saying out loud "everything will be fine" "I am going to have this baby" trying to be positive and manifest it 🙈🌈

Sorry to hear about your MC 💗 I 5 weeks 5 days, 6 weeks on Thursday.
Have you got a scan or anything booked yet? Xx

I don’t know what it is about being pregnant, but it gives me the craziest, most vivid dreams 🤦🏼‍♀️ it’s been the same with all of my pregnancies. But it’s very annoying because it means I wake up loads in the night!

Stephy1024 · 10/10/2023 06:36

@IDontDrinkTea I remember the crazy pregnancy dream's well. I've not had them yet this pregnancy.
I am booked in to see my midwife on Thursday. I'll be 5+6 seems a little early but hey ho.

BrwnX · 10/10/2023 07:18

That's good you are seeing her so early on @Stephy1024 I would love to be seeing mine early 🙈

Sorry for the TMI but has anyone been having loose stools? X

RaisingCornishWildlings · 10/10/2023 07:27

I've woken up to more blood and ifs redder and more of it. About to call the midwife triage line but I'm convinced it's all over. I'm heartbroken

Jak803 · 10/10/2023 08:22

@RaisingCornishWildlings I’m so sorry to hear this. Sending you loads of love and strength.

Really sorry @RaisingCornishWildlings. Thinking of you x

Sickness has hit me, throwing up last night and 6am this morning! I had severe HG with my first, I'm scared it's coming for me again! 😭

Boredinthehouse12 · 10/10/2023 08:48

HG is the worst! I had it last pregnancy and lost so much weight. How far are you? @pinkhart

RaisingCornishWildlings · 10/10/2023 08:50

When I called the Mw it was a friend who answered so I burst into tears. she tried to reassure that it might still be ok and has booked me a scan for tomorrow morning. But I feel pretty certain it's game over for me.
Eldest is off sick today as well so I guess it'll be sofa, blankets and Disney if the toddler stays still!! Xxx

Edited

It's horrible isn't it! I'm 6+5 by lmp but think I'm more like 6wks exactly from late ovulation. It's just hit me in the past 2 days, seems to have taken over all my other symptoms! How are you dojng this time?

Dani46 · 10/10/2023 09:02

@BrwnX yeh I have a scan, not booked as such. I need to contact epu back again when I’m 6 weeks which should be next week. They will scan and do bloods then for me.
Ive woke up today too and it’s like all my symptoms have gone 🙄 even though i had very few! But I need to stop it with that now, I’m still early and they can still come haha

HappyValleyFan1 · 10/10/2023 09:07

I'm so sorry you're going through this @RaisingCornishWildlings 🫂
Try and just chill today as much as you can with a toddler

cosymama2020 · 10/10/2023 09:47

@RaisingCornishWildlings I’m so sorry, I’m hoping for the best and that the bleeding doesn’t mean the worst.

@pinkhart it got so bad I went to the chemist today to ask for advice. Thing is, I’m not actually being sick but the wretching and gagging is so aggressive! Do you feel better or less sick after you’ve been sick or does it just continue?

pinkhart · 10/10/2023 10:19

Booked a doctors appointment and blooming glad I did! My blood pressure is alarmingly low which is why I could be feeling worse. They sending me straight to hospital now, said I was anxious and asked if could scan as well but said probably not!

cosymama2020 · 10/10/2023 10:25

@pinkhart omg! Hope you’re not feeling too rough! Let us know how you get on

pinkhart · 10/10/2023 14:57

@RaisingCornishWildlings Hope you're resting today and having lots of snuggles! Praying everything is okay for you!

@cosymama2020 Oh gosh that sounds awful, I always think the nausea is worse when you feel like you need to be sick but can't! I generally feel a bit better after I've thrown up for a while before it comes back.

Monitoring my blood pressure in hospital, had IV fluids and they've done a scan, little bean has heartbeat and all looks okay for now. Measuring 6+2.

cosymama2020 · 10/10/2023 18:25

@pinkhart oh I’m so glad you’re on the mend! So lovely you got to see the little bean too, how amazing!

pinkhart · 10/10/2023 19:53

cosymama2020 · 10/10/2023 18:25

@pinkhart oh I’m so glad you’re on the mend! So lovely you got to see the little bean too, how amazing!

Thank you! How are you feeling? How's the sickness and retching? They've prescribed me promithazine today for mine! Have you seen GP? X

CharlySwarles · 10/10/2023 20:22

@RaisingCornishWildlings sorry to hear it's come back! Let me know how your scan goes.

I have some spotting as well. It occurred to me earlier today, just as I sat on the toilet, that I don't feel sick or nauseous today. And just then discovered some spotting. Not feeling optimistic!

Called the GP just before they closed and the Dr said she'd refer me to the early pregnancy assessment unit first thing in the morning.

RaisingCornishWildlings · 11/10/2023 02:16

@CharlySwarles oh goodness not you too. Hope it stays at just spotting and doesn't get worse.

All day yesterday there was a lot of red blood when wiping, plus some on my pad.

It seems inevitable now- the cramps got a bit worse in the evening too. The scan is at 0950 in the morning so at least not too long now to wait for the confirmation.

Sending lots of love to you xx

BrwnX · 11/10/2023 06:47

Thinking of you today @RaisingCornishWildlings sending love 🫶🏻

Hope you are feeling better @pinkhart and on the mend soon 💗

I'm the same @Dani46 I will contact the EPU tomorrow and my midwife as that will be me 6 weeks 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I'm feeling slightly the same with the symptoms but trying to tell myself that it's completely normal and they can come and go xx

pinkhart · 11/10/2023 08:02

Good luck today @RaisingCornishWildlings xx

cosymama2020 · 11/10/2023 08:25

@RaisingCornishWildlings good luck, will be thinking of you this morning

Dani46 · 11/10/2023 11:04

@RaisingCornishWildlings good luck for today, thinking of you x
