Pregnancy after loss

[ChasingRainbow5]

Hi, I'm 4+4 after a loss at 6+5 in April. I don't want to join the 'due in January' thread yet as I joined the December one then had to bow out, but thought it might be nice to have a thread where anyone in a similar position could chat/vent? I can't see any recent similar threads, apols if I have missed.

I'm feeling a lot more nauseous than last time which I have read can be a positive sign, but obviously doesn't guarantee anything. Just trying to cling to any hope I can!

@AnonymousUser101 I’m so sorry you’re having to wait, how stressful. It does sound promising that you don’t have any pain, keeping everything crossed for you xx

It's shocking the difference in care in different areas! :(

Let us know how you get on tomorrow. Hope you've managed to keep distracted today.

Not only is it terrible how much the policy varies dependent on where you live, it’s frustrating everyone you speak to is telling you different things.
Glad to hear you’re not in pain, hopefully you can get through and booked in asap this morning x

Hi all,

Thanks for the messages of support, it means a lot!

I called my epu today at 8am and was greeted by ‘you need to be referred so go to A&E or through the GP’ I did manage to get a GP appointment and a referral has been made to the epu and I have an appointment tomorrow morning so after all of that I will finally get some answers tomorrow, not ideal as I would have liked some answers and reassurance today but atleast I have an appointment for tomorrow so that’s something ❤️

@AnonymousUser101 oh god, sorry to hear you're still waiting but glad you got booked in at least! It's mad how much protocol varies in different areas, my EPU is self referral and open at weekends. How are you feeling?

I wish it was the same here! I was always told I could call my epu for an appointment if I had any more bleeding but from the response I had today obviously not! It’s ridiculous it really is, the lack of care is shocking to me.

I’m okay, just abit of lower back pain really, the bleeding has settled down a lot now, it’s mostly just like the last day of your period now really which I am relieved about. I just feel super anxious ahead of tomorrow, my anxiety is just through the roof, all the waiting around is just so difficult and the not knowing aswell x

@AnonymousUser101 the waiting and not knowing is just the absolute worst, it's hell. Sending you a big hug and keeping everything crossed for tomorrow xx

Hello all, just a little update!

I had my scan this morning and we got to see baby bouncing around and all is well. I am further along than I thought, I’m 12 weeks 2 days but as I have my dating scan next week they didn’t want to date me today. There is some bleeding around the sac which is where the blood has come from. I feel such big sense of relief right now. Thank you all for your kind messages ❤️

@AnonymousUser101 yayyyy I'm so relieved to read this update!! These little babies have no idea the stress they put us through x

Thank you, I appreciate it ❤️ I know they really don’t! There they are bouncing around without a care in the world whilst we are worried sick haha x

Aww I'm so pleased everything is ok! Hope everything calms down so you can just enjoy the rest of the pregnancy x

Gosh so relieved to hear this @AnonymousUser101💕💫✨

I had three miscarriages in between two healthy babies - two chemicals and one at 6 weeks. My second baby is now 5 weeks old and healthy. No complications in the two successful pregnancies and everything went very smoothly. No idea why.

I couldn't enjoy scans in the last pregnancy, I would always hold my breath until I was told there was heartbeat. It never felt real, I couldn't be happy the way I was during the first pregnancy, I kept thinking there will be no baby. I'm now holding this baby in my arms.

I told myself that if I have miscarriages I just need to keep going, keep trying. These embryos had some abnormalities but eventually a good embryo will make its way to the uterus.

I’m so happy to hear this update @AnonymousUser101& what a relief to be further along than you thought and past the first trimester.

Take it easy, I’m 30 weeks tomorrow & after a loss there’s still worries along the way, but it’ll be so worth it in the end for us all 🥰
