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!

@Jenafaye yes that's what my thoughts were, she said the blood must have been sat there and the cramping etc was my bodies way of getting rid of it as she couldn't see any more bleeding and its almost stopped now, just the old blood, it probably explains all the spotting I had on and off over the last 2/3 weeks.
I'm just relieved now I know everything is ok, I might finally get a good night sleep tonight!

@Jak803 This message was like balm to my soul, thank you so so much. I can't tell you how much I needed to hear that. This group is becoming my safe place! Sending you love and hugs xx

Georgiadent123 · 30/10/2023 20:49

@Catson Thank you so much for your message, I have read it so many times now! Feeling so grateful for you and this space. Sending hugs x

Georgiadent123 · 30/10/2023 20:51

@Shiny88 sending you such a big hug, the anxiety is just horrible xx

Shiny88 · 30/10/2023 20:54

@DemelzaRobins I'm not sure they said they would wait and see what my bloods say and go from there so literally left in limbo.
It's the not knowing that I hate. Because I can't process anything properly until I know.

Thank you for that. I will defo go if I have any shoulder pain whats so ever.
They did say to go if the pain gets worse or if I feel dizzy aswell xx

Shiny88 · 30/10/2023 20:56

@LavenderJoy I'm so pleased that everything went well for you today and you got to see the little heart beat 😊 so precious.

Hopefully I will have a similar outcome but I'm starting to pass way more brown discharge so Im not overly hopefully but feel like I'm in limbo xx

@Shiny88 a similar thing happened to me with my first pregnancy (he’s now 8!) but it turned out I just conceived later than I thought. On the next scan they could see it in the right place. I didn’t have regular periods at the time though. Fingers crossed for you.

That's lovely to hear, glad yours had a happy ending 😊 xx

Dani46 · 30/10/2023 21:10

I’ve had a little bleed last night and it was mainly just brown. Been panicking so much today and I’m only being seen on Wednesday. Thankfully I didn’t have any cramps, but tonight I can kind of feel slightly crampy, but not much but there’s no more blood. I have a scan on Wednesday keeping my fingers crossed it’s all ok 🤞🤞 I’m 7w3d

@DemelzaRobins where bouts in your shoulder did you get pain?
Iv just started having slight pain around my shoulder blade

Bubblesandtroubles · 31/10/2023 06:54

@Shiny88 I hope your shoulder pain didn't come to anything and you're feeling okay today. Xx

Hi @Shiny88 - it started in my collarbone and spread to the shoulder tip. My ectopic was in the right tube and the pain was in the left shoulder.

If you haven't already, I'd ring 111 for advice. 111 told me to go to A&E when I rang them but they forewarned A&E who then triaged me quickly and arranged for me to see gynae about an hour after arrival.

Morning,

Looking for a little advice, last night I was super tired and fell asleep early. I was woken by really sudden cramping, I went to the bathroom to pee and I then fainted. I knew I was going to faint so luckily managed to get myself onto the floor. The pain stopped after 5mins and I’ve not fainted since, my husband came in to me as he heard me banging around and got me back into bed which I slept n and off all night!
Ive not had any bleeding and no more pain, thinking I should call my GP this morning just to get checked over.
Has anyone else ever experienced this before? X

Wheeeeee · 31/10/2023 08:12

Definitely call your GP! My blood pressure went really low in my last pregnancy, which left me quite lightheaded and dizzy at times, but with the pain it doesn't sound quite like that.

Mumormummy · 31/10/2023 10:09

I have seen my GP, he spoke to EPU who aren’t concerned at the moment as the pain went quickly. Just to go back if it happens again, EPU won’t offer a scan until 6weeks+ so will just see how things go.

Wheeeeee · 31/10/2023 10:36

Glad to hear they're not concerned. Fingers crossed for everything to be uneventful now!

Mumormummy · 31/10/2023 10:41

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hope everyone else is doing ok x

Stephy1024 · 31/10/2023 11:10

@KMM87 how are you feeling? What time is your scan today? Mines not till 4 o'clock so feels like forever to wait.

KMM87 · 31/10/2023 11:38

@Stephy1024 Hey! I'm feeling horrendous today. How are you doing?

Mine isn't until 6pm 😬 Eeekkk update me once you're been and good luck!!

Stephy1024 · 31/10/2023 12:25

@KMM87 I feel mostly fine, just tired. I've never really struggled with morning sickness with any of my pregnancies though so I guess that's a bonus. Hope you feel better soon.

Both late ones then. I will do hun, you too. Thank you. Good luck to you too.

KMM87 · 31/10/2023 12:42

@Stephy1024 me neither, I never felt sick once first time round. Today is the first day I'm feeling properly sick. Mind you it might be because we went on a Halloween day out yesterday and the image of the portaloos keeps flashing into my head 🤣 could not stop heaving!
Only 3 hrs and a bit to go for you now!! 😁

Wheeeeee · 31/10/2023 15:35

My nausea has really kicked in yesterday and today. I had quite bad sickness in my previous pregnancy so anticipating the same again. All I can face to eat is beige food, dairy milk and satsumas 🙈

Stephy1024 · 31/10/2023 16:51

@KMM87 oh bless you. Fingers crossed it passes. Haha nothing worse than portaloos.
So we had the scan and everything is good. Saw and heard babies heartbeat ❤️. Measuring a day ahead.
Not long left for you.

KMM87 · 31/10/2023 17:21

@Stephy1024 aww huge congratulations!! ☺️ I bet it was lovely. Did you have an abdominal scan?

I filled my bladder too soon and have just had to go to the toilet lol! So annoyed with myself but I could not hold it!! Need to drink lots on the way!

LizzeyBenett · 31/10/2023 17:58

Guys is anyone else just feeling sick all the time , I feel horrendous all day long not actually getting sick but feel nauseous all day it never goes away and I've just gone off all the things I used to like to eat and drink. I feel exhausted no matter how much sleep I get and struggling to function my supervisor had a whole conversation with me today and I didn't hear half of it. I'm only 6+2 how do you do this for weeks on end.

happytobemrsg · 31/10/2023 18:45

Nausea has kicked in for me too (5w 5d). Nearly threw up in the kitchen at work - too many smells!! Bloat is really bad in the afternoon too. It’s getting very hard hiding the bloat already
