Morning!
I found out yesterday that I’m pregnant. We have been TTC for three years and had given up on trying to be honest!!
I had sedation this week for an endoscopy and now I’m panicking. My pregnancy will be high risk anyway as I have a chromosome defect. I am panicking! Convinced I will lose this pregnancy too. Did anyone else have sedation before they realised? X

Hey Hun, I'm not generally high risk but in 2017 I was attacked and had my jaw broken in two places. When sent to hospital for surgery they did the standard pregnancy test check. I had no clue until they came back to tell me I'm pregnant. I would have been about 4 weeks as my period was due that same weekend. Anyway I had been on strong pain relief and had to go ahead with surgery to fix the two breakages on my jaw as there's no way I could have waited 9 months with a broken jaw!

All was fine, he's a healthy, tall 5 year old boy now, giving me all the attitude and full of life lol
