Pregnancy after Miscarriage

[rynosmum]

There isn't really an area for this so in the meantime, I want this to be a thread where those who are pregnant for the first time after miscarriage can get together.

Being pregnant after a miscarriage can be exciting and terrifying all at the same time. Following on from the TTC after Miscarriage thread, this gives us all a place to talk about our feelilngs and gain support from others as we move through this next phase.

Who else would like to join?

[Tea Lady]

I can't join in, but I just wanted to say this is a terrific idea RM :yes: Pregnancy post-m/c is so different to pregnancy pre-m/c and it's a great idea to support each other :)

I want to wish everyone in this situation a safe and happy pregnancy journey :hugs:

[Melissa1983]

i hope this one sticks for you Rynosmum..:fingerscrossed:

I had a m/c in March and pregnant again.. (9weeks now). But you seem to think every pain or loss of syptoms you are going to lose... I know i do..

I haven't had any spotting with this one, just pains, but i am looking like i am 4 months pregnant already..

I remember i went for a ultrasound a few weeks back and they couldn't see a heart beat and they said that i am only 6 weeks.. i cried because of my period i should have been 7 weeks, i made my mind up that i was going to lose this baby. So the doctor sent me a week later and i could see a heart beat, that reassured me everything was okay..

[EskimoMumma]

I wish I could get myself pregnant again. I am so scared to fall pregnant again for fear it will happen again to me.

Because of it, we have both agreed to wait another 12months. For my health and well the health of our bills too.

I wish you the best of luck in this pregnancy.:hugs:

[bronny-jane]

:yelclap: congrats:smiliedance:
my first pg ended in mc's, so ive always been on edge with being pg... and after dd3 im still a little paranoid...
every time i feel a little damp:o ..im sure its blood..cramping...well lets not start there;)

so i decided to try to alter my thoughts now...
with cramping i rub my belly... lots of growing going on
if i think i might be bleeding i dont go and check right away... i wait till i need to go to the toilet...
and instead of checking for blood when i wipe... i dont pay any attention.... just thinking positive...
although its getting hard as this was the same time i had the bleed with zoe..

oh yeah im so happy for your family.... im thinking positive thoughts for you... congrats

[Duchessa]

Good on you RM :) I certainly have a need for this thread right now, so I'll join you :D

I am 6 weeks preg with my fourth pregnancy in 12 months and have also had my first scare, being diagnosed with a clotting disorder which has most likely been responsible for my other miscarriages.

Hopefully now that I am on Clexane and aspirin we'll make it this time!

Good luck to us all, may our uteruses (uteri?) be like the proverbial blanket ;)

[rynosmum]

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for the kind words TL - you have more experience in this area than you give yourself credit for.

Mummyof2 - 9 weeks already? That is fantastic. I'm coming up to my viability scan as well but it will probably be late next week so I'm on tenderhooks until then. How lovely that you've got through that first stage.

EskimoMumma - How are you feeling? I'm sorry you had to go through all of that recently. When you are ready EmsMum72 started a thread called TTC after miscarriage in the TTC section and it was all the support I needed to get back here again :yes:

Thanks BJ and for the lovely PM. You must have more willpower than me because I run to the bathroom a few times a day at the moment. I had a scare on Friday night with major cramping and tiny teeny spotting so hopefully that is the most eventful part of this Pg. I can't believe you're up for #4!

Duchy, I'm so glad you're here. Of course our issues at the end of last week were the catalyst for this thread. When you have a preg scare after M/C, you need somewhere to turn and this is a place for that but also fears, successes and general chats. We're done now - we've had our scares - let's move through the rest with nothing more stressful than impending labour:D

Now, where's Jif??? She just announced her :bfp: in the TTC after M/C thread. C'mon girl!!!:smiliedance:

[Jif]

:D Hello RM and everyone! Took me a while to track this thread down! Fantastic idea for a thread:yelclap: So, :fingerscrossed: my HPT was right, my temps aren't lying and I am 4 wks pregnant!

I think I would sum up my mood as anxious! So different to the certainties and joy of the first :bfp:. DH looked at the HPT and said, its a bit faint, that's worrying does that mean your progesterone is low again? so we're both anxious.

I have a pretty busy couple of weeks coming up so I will try to relax and get on with that. Was going to leave going to the docs for a bit, but I think I'll try to go Tuesday for a BT.

[Rainbowbrite]

Being pg after a miscarriage is still scaring me. I can't relax & i'm almost 20 weeks pregnant now. Going for my scan on thursday. Even though I am feeling movement etc it doesn't ease my mind.

I had a m/c on 7th January, got AF 5 weeks after that & became pg on that cycle.

HUGE :hugs: to everyone here :hugs:

[EmsMum72]

:wave: just thought I'd pop in and say goodluck to everyone with your pregnancies. I'm so happy for you all, especially my friends rynosmum, duchessa & jif (from the TTC after miscarriage thread). You go girls! Keep your chins (not that I'm saying any of you have 'multiple chins' LOL) up, keep positive, try not to stress, enjoy this pregnancy, and keep on thinking happy thoughts. These babies are stayers, and nothing will go wrong :yelclap: . I expect you all to name your babies Melissa, ever if they're a boy :laughing:. I plan on joining this thread hopefully at the end of July so until then ...... ciao :kiss:

[Elfin]

Even though I have no business being in this thread, I just want to send you my warmest wishes RM, I am praying hard this little one stays with you. You are the loveliest person RM and after all you have been through you so deserve some happiest and good news:)

[Jif]

Thanks Melissa - that's so sweet of you! :fingerscrossed: we see you here at the end of the month hun

[Percy]

I can't join in, but I just wanted to say this is a terrific idea RM :yes: Pregnancy post-m/c is so different to pregnancy pre-m/c and it's a great idea to support each other :)

I want to wish everyone in this situation a safe and happy pregnancy journey :hugs:

That is exactly what i came into this thread to say.

All the best for everyone going through this scary, yet exciting time.

I hope one day i can join you all in here too.

sticky baby dust for everyone!!:hugs:

[Mrs J]

Hey Girls,

I am now 9 weeks 2 days and i fell one week after my m/c i am terrified of it happening again although i am past the stage i m/c the last which im relieved about. I had my scan last week and its healthy as far as they can see it was 16 mm long and its heart rate was 167 so nice and strong, i have my antenatal app on tuesday my second visit but this is the first with a doctor :fingerscrossed: i have another scan in a few weeks and lots of urine and blood tests to keep an eye on that infection i got last time and to make sure it doesn't come again this time which is good coz if only we knew last time we may have saved that bubba anyway thats my story for now, Good Luck ALL :fingerscrossed:

[Melissa1983]

Hi Everyone!

Mummyof2 - 9 weeks already? That is fantastic. I'm coming up to my viability scan as well but it will probably be late next week so I'm on tenderhooks until then. How lovely that you've got through that first stage.




i know its gone very quick... but happy i have passed the point where i m/c last time.
Poor DH though he doesn't come home until i am 17 weeks pregnant.. will have a big baby belly by than..

[Jif]

I think I might feel better once we get further along than we got last time, dunno but what you say makes sense to me Mrs J and Mummyof2.

[rynosmum]

I think I would sum up my mood as anxious! So different to the certainties and joy of the first BFP. DH looked at the HPT and said, its a bit faint, that's worrying does that mean your progesterone is low again? so we're both anxious. My first 3 tests were incredibly faint, my 4th was a different brand and much better. It's early days, that's all.:hugs:


Even though I am feeling movement etc it doesn't ease my mind.
Ugh....don't say that RB! It brings back all of the memories. I've been through this before - I didn't relax until I was holding baby Ry. 20 weeks though RB, you're so well on your way.


. I'm so happy for you all, especially my friends rynosmum, duchessa & jif (from the TTC after miscarriage thread). You go girls! Thanks Mel - and we want to see you here soon too! I was just reading about your cycle info - this is your month!:hugs:


Even though I have no business being in this thread, I just want to send you my warmest wishes RM Elf, you are more than welcome to pop in at any time. Thanks so much for the good wishes. I've got a good feeling about this little fella :fingerscrossed:


I hope one day i can join you all in here too.
We'd love to see you here soon too - that would be fantastic!


I am now 9 weeks 2 days and i fell one week after my m/c i am terrified of it happening again although i am past the stage i m/c the last which im relieved about. I think we will all be terrified. I've lost two now and it makes you feel so out of control. I read your story previously and it was tragic - all the best wishes for this pregnancy - I'm sure it will all work out for you.


i know its gone very quick... but happy i have passed the point where i m/c last time.
Poor DH though he doesn't come home until i am 17 weeks pregnant.. will have a big baby belly by than..

Wow, it'll be a huge happy surprise for him to see you then! Fantastic news, remember if you need to talk to someone whilst he is away, we're all here :D

[Jif]

Thanks RM, that's reassuring!:kiss:

[Duchessa]

Warmest, hugest and stickiest of congratulations Jif! Wow, we are really stacking up the numbers now.

Time, hurry by so that we may stop being so darn anxious.

[Melissa1983]

thanks RM.

[rynosmum]

I won't steal her thunder....will just wait....impatiently.....:thumbsup:

[kyannas*mum*]

[Duchessa]

ha haaa :D Congratulations again Kyanna's Mum - it is lovely to see you in here. I got terribly excited thinking there was ANOTHER one as well as you :D

[kyannas*mum*]

lol there still may be another in secret i dont no if it was me yet:detective: who could it be?

[rynosmum]

LOL - No it WAS you Kyanna'sMum!!!!

Congratulations and welcome to the thread!!! It's a lovely place here, sticky baby dust is regularly scattered :wizard:

I'm so pleased for you - congratulations!

Now Duchessa, could there be more yet?

Well, I just got my appointment for my viability scan....my OB is on leave so I can't see him until the 19th!! :banghead: Oh well, will think happy thoughts until then but would much have preferred to see him early next week to check and make sure we've got a happy heartbeat in there :fingerscrossed:

[RoarsomeMum]

:hugs: 's everyone (and no, don't think Im the special edition to the thread!)

I had a miscarrige in Dec. Didi not know I was pregnant at the time, though I gues deep down I suspected. We had tried so so long to concieve.. was so shattered to hear we had, and that the pregnancy was not viable.

I had a D&C in late Dec and was pregnant by March. So so so shocked and scared to find out. was sure we would loose Bubs. Here I am at 20 weeks and I still worry. I know we are out of the "most dangerous" period.. But I still find myself thinking the worst. I am so so grateful, and petrified at the same time. Seems Im not alone there.

I keep counting down, 20 weeks tomorrow, only 2 short weeks till you "legally" count as a human being. I cant wait to get to that point.

Thanks for starting this thread Rynosmum.

[Duchessa]

Oh wow, what a long wait. On the bright side, if you don't see a heartbeat then, you can be pretty sure it isn't there. Hope the time flies for you RM.

I have mine this Wed but I will only be 6.5 weeks - a little early really. It may be too early to see a heartbeat and wouldn't be conclusive if we didn't IYKWIM so might cause more angst than it relieves. I think I have a touch of cold feet. I have another booked for another 2-3 weeks after that though.

[Bron]

Just popping in here to wish all you wonderful, beautiful, brave women all the very best of luck with your pregnancies.

DS arrived in April, but I'd had two miscarriages before that, and I understand the anxiety and excitement that you're experiencing now.

:hugs: to you all.

*Sprinkles truck loads of sticky baby dust around the place*

Great idea for a thread RM.

[Jif]

Thanks Bron and Em - most reassuring!
RM - that's a while, poor you
Kyanna's Mum - I'll celebrate here too:smiliedance::laughing:

[Chelle123]

I think I might feel better once we get further along than we got last time, dunno but what you say makes sense to me Mrs J and Mummyof2.

I am currently 13wks pg. It took us 6 months from m/c to conceiving. I knew I was pg on day 27 of my cycle and was a nervous wreck until I got past 6 weeks (thats when m/c happened). I am only relaxing a bit more now that I've had my NT scan. I have a lot more fears now than I did with my 2 DS's, I just don't want to go through the whole m/c thing again.

[SilverStarfish]

Hello :wave:

I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant. This is my first pregnancy after my m/c in February.

It's funny. With Sarah it didn't even occur to me that anything could go wrong after those two little blue lines appeared on the test. I completely took it for granted that in 9 months time I'd be holding a baby.

I've been feeling a LOT more cautious this time around :yes: I've had the NT scan and everything looks fine, and the midwife was (EVENTUALLY!!! talk about scary!) able to find the heartbeat at my first hospital appointment last week.

It doesn't do much to stem the tide of "what if" feelings that are constantly floating around in the back of my mind, though.

[rynosmum]

I keep counting down, 20 weeks tomorrow, only 2 short weeks till you "legally" count as a human being. I cant wait to get to that point.

I so know what you mean, I think many of us would prefer to close their eyes through the first half of the pregnancy, only to wake up at that time. You're certainly not alone.


I have mine this Wed but I will only be 6.5 weeks - a little early really. You just need to promise not to freak out if you don't see anything at your scan - 6.5 weeks is probably a little line/ball....but I'd be doing it too if I could :hugs:


*Sprinkles truck loads of sticky baby dust around the place*
Thanks Bron, we all love sticky baby dust!:D


I have a lot more fears now than I did with my 2 DS's, I just don't want to go through the whole m/c thing again.
Welcome Chelle! I know what you mean. I am paranoid, furiously checking at every toilet stop etc. Had a scare the other night so a little nervy. It sure it trying but so very worth it.:yes:


I've had the NT scan and everything looks fine, and the midwife was (EVENTUALLY!!! talk about scary!) able to find the heartbeat at my first hospital appointment last week.
Isn't that terrifying? That's how I found out that I lost both of my bubbas. Turning up at a scan to find no heartbeat. If it takes longer than a few seconds to find it, I literally break out in a sweat these days.

Congrats on the pregnancy too - your getting into safer zones each and every day.

[kyannas*mum*]

RYNOSMUM- thanks again for the welcome and the 19th ohh so far but at least it wont be inconclusive thats a plus.

ECSTATIC EM- good to see you in here 20 weeks your going along nicely you can relax now

DUCHESSA- good luck with scan but dont think worst if no hb there ok it will be there next one

JIF- thanks we found out on same day and if my cycles are correct at 28 days im due on 10th too although i got a feeling ill be due 15th with my cycles

CHELLE123 welcome :smiliedance: your over you magical 12 week mark that has to be a relief

FEAML- welcome yeah i was same with my first pre didnt no much and it was so much easier than being worried daily

well as for me my test is darker today so thats a good sign its prob half as dark as control but definatly there, still no other real symptoms though go to docs on thursday to get blood test then book in to see ob that week and see where we go from here

[littlefreckle]

Hello all

Well it's great to hear of so many getting a BFP after a m/c. Hope everyone is well :yes:

Well i'm having a bit of a panic at the moment after 3.5 years TTC and 3 failed IVF attempts then i m/c IVF twins in april, I have just found out by peeing on a stick that i'm pregnant :eek:

I have been seeing a chinese doctor for 5 weeks now and my period is 4 days late but i wasn't overly concerned as my cycle is normally about 72 days. The doc said he wanted me to do a test just to be on the safe side because of the herbs that i am on.

So I went home did the test and its a :bfp: . I know i should be over the moon but i'm feeling neverous and a little stressed. I'm 4 weeks today and last time i m/c the first twin a 5 weeks and the other at 7. I have had a BT today and will know on thurs what the levels are. I'm just praying that this little one hangs in there.

Sorry to :ecomcity: just in shock wasn't expecting to be here again this soon.

[Chelle123]

Good luck littlefreckle! What a great surprise. I hope everything works out well.

[rynosmum]

Well, this is tougher than I thought.

I had spotting on Friday night and went to the GP today who suggested that everything was probably fine as I'd had no more but we'd do Hcg tests today and Thursday just to set my mind at ease.

Unfortunately I then went to the bathroom and had more spotting :banghead: . It could be anything. I have no idea if I am losing the bub or if I just have some type of small bleed. What I have is just spotting - nothing else, but of course, enough to be worried about.

I've never had this, even with my previous losses. Ugh. I'm so glad I can vent here :gloomy:

[Brasha]

RynosMum..

hang in there bubba!!!!!!!

praying for your hon, all will be fine.. probably nothing to worry about, bubba just testing mummy... little brat...:shame: hehe


Little Freckle,
My goodness...what a surprise... :wizard: for you, hope this is a keeper... you sure sounds like you deserve it.. praying for you too....

[Duchessa]

Oh RM how frightening. I so hope that it is just normal ole spotting and nothing to be afraid of. Love and hugs and lots of glue. xxxxx

[Melissa1983]

RM... try and keep positive, which is hard i know... Stick in there little bubba... :fingerscrossed:

[Jif]

RM stay strong love, spotting is very normal according to my Pregnancy DVD.:hugs:

Freckle - what wonderful news!:yelclap:

[Crazy Monkey]

Hello :wave:

I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant. This is my first pregnancy after my m/c in February.

It's funny. With Sarah it didn't even occur to me that anything could go wrong after those two little blue lines appeared on the test. I completely took it for granted that in 9 months time I'd be holding a baby.

I've been feeling a LOT more cautious this time around :yes: I've had the NT scan and everything looks fine, and the midwife was (EVENTUALLY!!! talk about scary!) able to find the heartbeat at my first hospital appointment last week.

It doesn't do much to stem the tide of "what if" feelings that are constantly floating around in the back of my mind, though.

This is exactly how I felt with my first pregnancy, then I lost my second, and this time has been very stressful... I insisted to my GP that I need a scan to make sure everything was OK, and then once I passed the point that I m/c'ed, I felt a little better... I felt a total sense of relief at my 12 week scan, everything was looking good and bubs was jumping around... I still don't feel totally at ease but trying to stay positive anyway...

RM - all the best with the spotting... I'm sure its nothing... My friend bleed up until 20 weeks and now has a healthy, beautiful little boy...

All the best to everyone...

[rynosmum]

Hey Ladies,

I just wanted to thank you all for your lovely kind wishes. Unfortunately my Hcg levels have more than halved since last Thursday so it appears that we have in fact lost our precious bubba. Now just to wait until the physical part is done.:gloomy:

I am so pleased that all of you are cooking wonderful little bubbas, especially after one or more losses. I hope to be back here again at some point, but not for a little while.

Make sure you keep this thread going though! I'll be popping in every now and again to check up on you all :hugs:

Bye for now and thank you again - it was a pleasure sharing this thread with you all:wave:

[Elfin]

Oh RM I just don't know what to say:gloomy: :hugs:

[Brasha]

:hugs: RynosMum.. I am so sorry..

What more can i say.. hope your angels are playing with mine in heaven... :angel:

thinking of you on this difficult day

[ButterflyMama]

I'm so sad for you RM. You're in my thoughts. Please take it easy and allow yourself plenty of time to grieve and heal. :hugs:

[Melissa1983]

i'm sorry to hear the sad news RM. :hugs:

[Crazy Monkey]

So sorry to hear that you lost your little angel RM... Take all the time you need to grieve and heal and we are all here for you if you need to talk, vent, cry, whatever...

[Jif]

RM sweetheart, so sorry for your loss. How unfair. Take care of you xxx

[rynosmum]

Thanks for your lovely words beautiful ladies :hugs:

[bronny-jane]

:crying: im so sorry:hugs: theres nothing i know to say to make you feel better... but im thinking of you...:hugs:

[EskimoMumma]

RM, my heart goes out to you and your :angel:

:hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

[Duchessa]

Oh K, I'm so sorry. :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

[rynosmum]

Okay everyone, whilst I do love you for thinking of me - enough of all this RM pity posting....:hugs:

Back on track with this thread please - I wanna see people talking about pregnancy after miscarriage - give me a thread to come back to!!!

You go girls! More morning sickness chatter please :yes:

[Duchessa]

You sure do have chutzpah woman! You are pure gold. xx

[littlefreckle]

Hi there all

Well i'm a bit more relaxed now. I got the BT results and the levels are 156 which i have been told is ok. Had a scan and there is a tiny blob there and the lining is nice and think compared to last time where it was patchy.
So here's hoping that this one is a stayer

[kyannas*mum*]

hi all welcome little freckle good to hear everything is all good

well i went to ob today and he has kept me on just the aspirin for now no injections, he said that will be the next step if i mc this time, had some blood done yesterday and my level was at 165 so still early not sure when i od now as yesterday with a 33 day usual cycle it was day 13 past o and he said 165 was excellent result as its usually only around 49 so he thinks maybe i have od on time and yesterday would of been day 17 and he said average is around 132 so he said good either way

have to go back next friday to have more blood done and he will do a scan but said prob still to early for heart but just wants to check the hcg is rising all good

so so far so good happy to hear:fingerscrossed:

[rynosmum]

You sure do have chutzpah woman! You are pure gold. xx

I've got WHAT??!? Why I oughta....:eek: ...ooooohhhh... it was a COMPLIMENT.

Why thank you Duchy. I must say, coming from someone who has been through as much as you and who recently had to resort to casting a fishing line over gushing flood waters, just to get precious medication that you are now injecting into yourself... well heck, if that ain't a little chutzpah you've got right there, I don't know what is. :hugs:

Anyway, how are those injections going? Sounds like they have taken you over the initial warning time which is awesome.



Had a scan and there is a tiny blob there and the lining is nice and think compared to last time where it was patchy.

That's fantastic news littlefreckle! You must be so pleased!


...and he said 165 was excellent result as its usually only around 49 so he thinks maybe i have od on time and yesterday would of been day 17 and he said average is around 132 so he said good either way

That does sound excellent K'smum - that's a great result so soon :yes:

Now, where's Jif, Mummyof2, EcstaticEm, Chelle123, Faeml, Crazy Monkey?

[Crazy Monkey]

I'm here...

I've been feeling pretty good lately... Definitely sporting a baby bump... Looking like i;m about 5 months along and not 3 :laughing: I don't mind though, at least I don't have to hide it anymore...

Been thinking a lot lately about the bubs I lost - I would be almost 8 months had everything been OK... I think it is going to hit me harder than I thought when the due date arrives...

Has anyone else passed there due date and how did you cope??

[sam's mum]

I had a mc in Dec 04 and then got pregnant again after 1 AF and had DS in Sept 05. I wasn't worried through this pregnany at all. It was as if I hadn't had the mc. I think that I was still in denial about it all, repressing it a bit. I didn't have to physically mc, at an OB visit there was no heartbeat and I chose to have a d&c rather than wait to have a natural mc.

This time however, every twinge, every ache. If I go half an hour without feeling the baby move... I was sweating to get far enough along that the baby would have some chance if it was born early. I still stress every day, check every time I go to the toilet.

I don't understand why it is hitting me so hard this pregnancy....

[mysonroger]

i think i missed my TTC chance this month. i think it was last weekend, but we had 7 extra people staying in the house and DH was very stressed from work, and well.....he couldn't ....you know, he just couldn't......do it!!! so that all happened at the critical time of the month, and the first chance we got to BD was on monday night, but i suspect by then, it was far tooo late.......:gloomy:

[SilverStarfish]

Been thinking a lot lately about the bubs I lost - I would be almost 8 months had everything been OK... I think it is going to hit me harder than I thought when the due date arrives...


I would have been almost 7 months now. My due date was to be the 15th of September - which is also the day I'm going to be Matron of Honour at a close friend's wedding.

I'll be glad for the distraction I think - I'll be so busy wrangling the bridal party and making sure my friend's day goes smoothly that I hopefully won't have time to think about other things.

[mysonroger]

oh good holy God, i just noticed i posted in the wrong thread....sorry girls. i will copy it over.

sorry.

[Chelle123]

Been thinking a lot lately about the bubs I lost - I would be almost 8 months had everything been OK... I think it is going to hit me harder than I thought when the due date arrives...

Has anyone else passed there due date and how did you cope??


My miscarried bubba was due on June 14th 2007 and I thought it would be really hard. Lucky for me I was already pg again and had seen a heartbeat so the day wasn't too bad. I was still sad for what I had lost but I'm a great believer in 'everything happens for a reason'.

[StormAngel]

Just wanted to say Congrats to all you lucky ladies!
Hopefully I can join you soon!

[Mrs J]

hi all

hi to the ladies that i havnt talked to yet its very quite around here,

i have been going well trying to limit my time on here cause it was taking over lol so wont be on here to much

went to ob yesterday and my hcg had gone up from 165 last friday to 6150:eek: this friday he was extremly happy and said its very high which is good in 7 days he done a scan and theres a sac with a bub inside, which measured 5 weeks 1 day so gotta go bac 2 weeks for a scan for hb but he said all in all looks good

he didnt mention anything about high hcg but has anyones been that high at 5 weeks im thinking its very high but he did not mention 2 at all maybe he didnt want to worry me lol but have had a search around and 1278 seems to be the norm at 5 weeks lol

[Chelle123]

he didnt mention anything about high hcg but has anyones been that high at 5 weeks im thinking its very high but he did not mention 2 at all maybe he didnt want to worry me lol but have had a search around and 1278 seems to be the norm at 5 weeks lol

Twins?

[kyannas*mum*]

Twins?

yeah on looking at the tables for hcg at this time my levels are up at the twin point but there was only one sac that he showed me and i think only one bub in sac so will see when i go for next scan

after reading through some posts some poeple have had quite high to and only had single so maybe ive just rising quickly well we will see soon

[Pebbles]

What a great idea for a thread RM.
Well I am almost 27 weeks pregnant. I had a m/c in January this year.
My pregnancy has been an emotional rollercoaster. When I first found out I was pregnant it was such a shock as I didnt expect to fall pregnant so soon after my m/c and to fall pregnant naturally was even more of a shock as I had been told that would be unlikely. I was paranoid to the point that I almost drove my poor DH crazy with constant worry's and negative thoughts. Each time we went for a scan or a BT I was sure it was going to be bad news and I would try so hard to prepare myself for the worst, I would cry myself to sleep at night and I would prey that our angel in heaven would protect his/her bro/sis.
As time went on things got easier. At one stage I was so scared that I would loose our baby that I hired a Doppler so I could hear his heartbeat every night. That helped alot and got me through some tuff times. Then I found out that I am having a boy and things started to feel more real. I finally accepted that this time it looks like things are going to go our way. It was a huge relief to finally let go of my negative feelings and slowly I have started recovering properly from my m/c which is something I never had a chance to do before I fell pregnant again.
Next month would have been my due month for having my little Peanut. I know I will be sad on the 17th of next month but I also know I will get through it.
The Doppler I hired has been sitting in the cupboard in the "Nursery" for a few weeks now, I keep it there just in case but I know I dont need it. I feel my little Button move every day and I know that he is ok. At 27 weeks he can hear me and I talk to him all the time. I tell him about the baby we lost and I keep an u/s pic of my little Peanut in our room. I also planted a White Rose in his/her memory and amazingly it is the only plant I have ever managed to keep alive! Its leaves are bright green and the Roses are so beautiful when it flowers. I know that these are signs that my little angel is up there looking down on us knowing that we loved him/her so much even though we never got to meet him/her.

Hi Renee,

Just letting you know when my baby was 5 weeks my hormone level was 8500 and there was only one baby. Apparently and i have looked it up too the ranges vary greatly and that is what my ob said you need it in conjunction with the scan as bloods alone do not tell you the whole picture.

There is my :ecomcity: , probably didnt even help:rolleyes: .

Sorry....have lost my voice and feel a bit funny today

hey thanks ttcin2007

yeah you helped thanks and a few people have said now about it varying so im just waiting now to the scan to see how it is

thanks again and good luck in you ttc journey

[bree27]

Kyanna - Your HcG level is great. Mine was 8527 and I was 5 weeks. And only 1 little bubs in there. High is great, its when it is a little low that you might be worried.

:wizard: sticky baby dust for you.

Bree xoxox

[kyannas*mum*]

hi ladies,

where is everyone theres so many of us at the start now they are not coming here
duchessa how did you go with your 2nd opionion about the injectons

well as for me im 6 weeks tomorrow im feeling not to good for the last few days i have had neausea feeling not really many symptoms just going toilet more often nipples bit tingly today i have woken up no neausea so feeling low that maybe something might be wrong as with other mcs the sickness just went and felt normla again, nipples are still bit tingly and still bit of heartburn but just worried about this neausea

well ms started at 6 half weeks with dd and dont think i got anything before hand as i only found out i was pg at 6 weeks so i have:fingerscrossed: soon ill be sick

well guess theres not much i can do have scan in 2 weeks so ill hope and wait for the ms to come in full force

[Bellas_mummy]

Hi Renee,

I am still here....quietly going crazy i think:laughing: .

Not much i can do at the moment but BD like mad and patiently (what the hell is that!!) wait for either ovulation, AF or :bfp: .

I did a hpt yesterday and got a very faint :bfp: . But i dont even know why i did it as it was only 11 days post D&C and i think as does everyone else that has replied that my hormone levels are still going down, so i am not preg and then does that mean i cant get preg till all those levels are gone???? SO much confussion.

I am sure this preg will go really well for you and just think you have had successful ones before and this will be just like them. I am sure you want these 2 weeks to fly past and they will. All the best.

Cheers

[kyannas*mum*]

hi ttcin2007 yes you are still here and i do hope you will be joining this tread sooner rather than later thanks for you positive thoughts yeah i no i can have healthy preg but since my first the next 3 were not and was found that the problem with the blood has come all the way since dd to as her placenta had all died off at on her birth too he just said she was a good fighter and got through

as for your :bfp: today im sorry you had to put your self through it i too did ptests and got my self hope full that i was preg too but done one few days alter and it wasnt there:crying: so :hugs: to you and look forward to you joining soon just get bding and u might get lucky and :bfp: before af which happened to a friend of mine

[Mrs J]

Hey Girls,

All going good here at my end, I have been feeling little bubbles and butterflies for the last 2 days its so amazing. I have my scan in 2 weeks thats our next major hurdle i just hope it all goes well. Great to see so many of us in this thread :fingerscrossed: there are more to come :fingerscrossed:

[Crazy Monkey]

Everything going well here too... downs Risk is 1:3000 and the scan and blood tests I had are all good... OBs is very happy...

[Mrs J]

That's Really Good Crazy Monkey i am glad all is going good for you to.
Today has been odd for me, i have been feeling really dizzy, shaky and spaced out, i have been eating regular and healthy not quite sure if its my blood pressure or not. I only had it checked yesterday and it was fine :rolleyes: dunno but this sure is a weird feeling.

[Crazy Monkey]

Mrs J, I was feeling really dizzy on Sunday and it continue through until yesterday. Went to GP and he said I had a viral infection and it should clear in 3-7 days... Feeling heaps better now... So I know how you feel... Take it easy...

[Mrs J]

Hi Girls,
I was 12 weeks yesterday one trimester down 2 to go. Today i have been feeling stinging when i do a wee so looks like i have an infection i just pray its not that nasty one again. I have been on antibiotics since yesterday for a chest infection so i will give it untill tomorrow then i will be off to the after hours doctors. I will give the antibiotics im on a chance to work it may just be a normal one :fingerscrossed: i PRAY it is. Im so scared, How is everyone else ????

[Mrs J]

I went to the after hours doctor as i was worried, it showed up an infection but just a normal one, the antibiotics should kick in soon she said. They are sending it away to culture to check it and i have to go to my gp for a test on monday to check its gone.

[Brasha]

Hi,
Thats exactly how I felt and hitting 12 weeks was a huge relief. Maybe its too early for symptoms, mine didn't show till 5-6 wks.

GOOD LUCK!

[smelly]

Hi ladies
I hope you don't mind me butting in on your thread, but I wanted to wish everyone all the best with their pregnancies. I lost a bub a long way into my first pregnancy (not through miscarriage). Although my circumstanaces were a little different, I found my next pregnancy was really tough at times. I was worried sick some days and nearly drove my OB nuts with all of my stressed-out phone calls and questions (lucky he was VERY understanding). I could really have used support like you are giving each other.
Fortunately, I now have a beautiful 6 month old girl. And after reading some of your posts I definitely have my fingers crossed that you all have perfect pregnancies and beautiful little bubbas
x x x

[No2WhereAreYou]

Congrats Girls on the bfps!
You are sooo lucky! How long did it take to get a bfp after your miscarriage?
I completed my miscarriage three weeks ago (well,thats when the bleeding stopped) so Im waiting on an answer from the baby fairy!

[Brasha]

Belles Baby Dream,

Sorry to hear about your loss.. :fingerscrossed: it doesnt take you too long.

After my first m/c @ 5 1/2 wks. It took until my 4th cycle to get pg again.

After my 2nd m/c @ 12 weeks.... It took again until my 4th cycle. I have just found out...Praying all is well and we gondt need to get on the ttc wagon again.

I was beginning to think we hada real problem with conceiving... and what do you know.. that was the month.. Never give up!

[Jif]

2 months after the miscarriage for us. good luck:thumbsup:

[Frangimimi]

I had a miscarriage at 14 weeks, all i wanted was to get preg as fast as possible, it was so hard.
For us it took 4 months, and we are now expecting our third miracle in October.
Hang in there, when you are ready it will happen for you:hugs:

DH 35
ME 33
DD Nearly 9
DS 6
An Angel 14 weeks:angel:
New Arrival due in October 07

[Crazy Monkey]

Hope all the pregnancies are going well...

Well today would have been my due date, so I have been a little down but not as much as I thought... I guess being a bit sick hasn't really helped with being down, but I guess it has also kept my mind off it a bit more...

Was talking to DH about the bubs we would have been welcoming into the world at this time and he said that he sometimes forgets that we even lost a baby... I think about our little angel all the time - is that normal?? I don't talk about him/her, but its always on my mind about what we should be doing now... I don't know maybe I'm just thinking too much about it...

[memom17]

I just lost my baby 8 days ago...I'v lost one befor and the feeling dosn't change. I'm going to try again but it scares me to think I may lose another.:crying: But no matter what I'm NOT giving up!:babydust2:


~:babydust2: to everyone!~

[No2WhereAreYou]

I believe it's different for men - the attachment etc. Not to say they don't care or don't hurt, but I think it is their make up (?)

[fangel]

Hi all

I am new to this site and was so excited to connect with kindred souls. I am 7 weeks pregnant after a miscarriage at 8 weeks earlier in the year. I am so terrified that something is going to go wrong again that i am not planning to go to a dr until after the 10 week mark. I know thats silly but getting the pregnancy confirmed by a dr just makes it all too real again. I am feeling fine and have had no morning sickness at all - is that normal? Somehow it would make me feel better if I was ill every day. Anyway just checking if anyone else has had no sickness and still had a viable pregnancy...

Thanks for sharing all your stories - it helps to know i am not alone in my fears.

[No2WhereAreYou]

I've had friends who had no ms, but still had healthy bubs!

[EmsMum72]

My friend, rynosmum, started this thread awhile back and I think it needs to be resurrected. Anyone else interested?

Being pregnant again after suffering a miscarriage/s is quite a scary predicament and this is a great thread where we can all air our feelings and concerns about pregnancy after miscarriage. I've just found out that I'm pregnant again, and every little niggle that I feel in my belly concerns me; when I don't feel sick I think 'why aren't I feeling sick, what's wrong?' etc.

Feel free to join me in here to discuss anything you want to discuss. I'm sure rynosmum wouldn't mind me starting it up again, and hopefully we might see her back in here again one day!

[No2WhereAreYou]

Hi Fangel

I'll be telling the doc only for the sake of wanting to know about exercise after a previous m/c, but i will be telling her i dont want any appointments made till 10 weeks!!
I completely agree with you. Hope I get my BFP next month!

[Brasha]

hi everyone,

Just popped by to say

THANKYOU for all your support.

Had NT scan today and was petrified there would be no heartbeat.. but there was!!! YAY..160bpm, little worm wouldn't turn over to do the NT measurement, so had to wander for ages and wake "it" up... all looks good though.. results on Tuesday.

i cant believe i am finally almost 13 weeks, 1 year after this new journey began and so many heartbreaks.

[Grace3]

oh Brasha this is wonderful news :hugs:

[Bellas_mummy]

Hi everyone,
Yay i can finally join your group!!! I m/c in july and then 9 weeks later (no AF mind you) we got the BFP!!! I think we found out really early because when i went to the doctors my HCG was only 130.5. But now we are 7 weeks and my bloods have been going up nicely.

Because my m/c was a missed m/c i am so worried that it will happen again. But on the positive side they think the baby died at 5-6 weeks last time so i am past that, i feel a lot sicker than last time and boobs sorer, i am not working so i can rest when needed, last time i dyed my hair and drank heavily before realising i was preg. So when i look at it like that i feel a lot better that this little baby will be fine.

Cant wait to share the journey with all you girls!!

[porridge]

Hey guys... I feel dumb joining this group now, I only found it today :o

I'm 17 weeks pg - had a mc in Nov 06. I'm still stressing about most things. I was so worried between my 9 week scan and 14 week scan (just routine with my ob - she has a little machine in her room) that there wouldn't be a hb and there was! *phew* and now I'm 17 weeks, I'm worried that at my morph scan in 2 weeks, there won't be a hb... I'm worried that my tummy isn't very big... basically I'm just worried.

I cried yesterday for the baby I never got to hold and wondered if this new baby felt my sadness.

I'm not feeling so sick anymore... and worry about that (because I liked throwing up every day??!! :banghead: ) it was kind of a comfort...

anyway... thanks for digging up the thread EmsMum72... sorry for hogging the space...

[jaydensmum]

There could be a chance that im pg!! :eek: I had my first AF 6wks ago after losing oceana. Well my AF is late, im very moody, teary, bloated, sometimes nauseated, heartburn, and gassy. I did a HPT 1.5wk ago but im scared to do another one. I dont know whether to do another one or not! :(

[Grace3]

I don't usually vent, but here I go.........

I have just recently found out that my cousin is pregnant which is great, her DP is great and they will both make lovely parents. My cousin lives interstate

But my other Aunty continually talks to me about her being pregnant. My cousin is due around the same time I was and it just frustrates the **** out of me... WHy can't people be a little more sensative.....I might be all happy on the outside but its give me the pippies on the inside.

THEN.... On Saturday my Aunt said to me, Oh yesterday I got to hold, so and so's baby and he such a beautiful little boy, he's breast feeding lovely then went on to talk about that.................

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

DH said that I should say something to her! Should I? AND if I do how do I say it nicely without affending anyone?


Grace

[jaydensmum]

I forgot to add extreme tiredness!!!!:yes: I cant stay awake, i keep falling asleep on the lounge and i never do that. I only have felt like this when im pg.

[Grace3]

I forgot to add extreme tiredness!!!!:yes: I cant stay awake, i keep falling asleep on the lounge and i never do that. I only have felt like this when im pg.

OH Jaydensmum this is fantastic :fingerscrossed:

(sorry I was to busy venting before)

I don't know if you should test, but its the only way your going to find out, unless you wait a little longer. I know how you feel, the unknown.....



BIG HUGS :smiliedance:

Oh sweetie, I think this is all normal. I know when I finally get my :bfp: after my m/c I will be exactly the same. Even though my DH will say don't be silly :banghead: You just can't relax somethimes.

[jaydensmum]

Thats ok grace! :hugs: Im sorry to hear that your going through a tough time. Some people are so insensitive, it really hurts. I have some people at work like that, they just dont know what its like. :no:
I have mixed feelings about being pg. Theres a part that wants me to be pg and a part that doesnt. I hate feeling this way! :crying:

[Grace3]

Thanks. It is hard as you would know. I like to talk to people, I guess on my terms, when I'm ready to talk if this makes any sense. Some people really just don't think.



*******

What are the feelings like that make you feel as though you don't want to be pregnant? I can't wait to be pregnant again, but I am scared of m/c again. Is this how your feeling?

Grace

[jaydensmum]

Yeah i suppose. Losing oceana was the hardest thing ive had to go through physically and mentally and i think im just scared of it happening again. Also im worried my body wont be able to handle another pg so soon. :yes:

[Grace3]

:hugs:

It brings back so many memoriers. And memories that hurt deeply.

Oh darling I can't say anything that will make you feel better inside. I hope at the end of your journey you get to hold and spend the rest of your life with your beautiful baby. Oceana will always be watching over you :angel: :babydust2: Always :babydust2: .



My Ob told me it's ok to fall pregnant after AF has arrived

[EmsMum72]

:wave: Hi ladies :wave:

Grace & jaydensmum, I replied to your posts in the TTC after miscarriage thread!

Welcome everyone who hasn't been here before, or hasn't been here for awhile. Porridge, I can understand how scared you're feeling. I have a dating scan at the end of October, I'll be about 9 weeks preg by then and I'm scared sh!tless already :laughing: because when I miscarried earlier in the year my baby died at 8 weeks, so I'll be super dooper nervous on the day of that scan, and probably every scan afterwards until my baby is in my arms! I know what you mean about worried because you don't feel sick. With my miscarriage I didn't start bleeding until I was 11.5wks old (but as I said the baby died at 8wks) and during those 3.5wks I stopped feeling sick and my (.)(.) stopped feeling sore, so I'm like 'bring on the nauseous, sore (.)(.)'s, tiredness etc. for at least the first 14 weeks so I know everything's ok!

ttcin, how are you doing?

Hi to everyone else. Gotta dash, think DD's up to no good in the lounge room.

Take care everyone!

Mel

[jaydensmum]

I just bought the hpts!!! I dont know whether to do it now or later, im so scared! :yes:

[Chelle123]

Its normal to feel like this. I had my m/c almost a year ago and the only thing that keeps me going is the fact that I can feel the baby move now.

As for feeling sick, mine stopped by about 14wks this pg so it was a worrying time for me too but once you start feeling the baby move (around 20+ wks), things get better. I'm relaxing more now at 25wks than I have throughout the pg.


Jaydensmum - Goodluck!

[jaydensmum]

Well my tummy is cramping now so it looks like i scared AF to show her face!! :yes: :thumbsdown:

[bree27]

Hi Ladies,

I am joining this thread now.

I am pregnant again and absolutly terrified.
People say about the 12 weeks and then you are safe. Well the 12 weeks is more like 20 weeks for me. I am so nervous that the same thing will happen. Or something else.

I am really crampy today. More like sore bloating I guess but of coarse I am worried about it.

Off to see my OB tomorrow and get a scan. I am hoping there will be a heartbeat. I think I am 7 weeks. Oh this is so scary. I am really upset with myself that I am not very excited. Just full of worry and what ifs.

Anyway, hope all you ladies are well.

Love Bree

[jaydensmum]

Bree - firstly congratulations on your pg! :smiliedance: I can totally understand where you are coming from. I found out last week that im pg again and im happy but very scared. Im only 4.5wks but it seems like the next 16wks are going to take forever. To me passing 20wks will be a relief for me not 12wks.:yes: Good luck with your u/s tomorrow, let us know how you go! :fingerscrossed: Im having my u/s in 2wks. Take care hun and you can talk to me anytime! :hugs:

[shereejoy]

Hi Naomi, fancy seeing you here lol

The fear the fear the fear, please make the next 2 weeks go really fast. I have a scan in 2 weeks to see if we are dealing with 1 or 2 this time and I want to also see a viable baby for a nice change.

People don't realise how hard this is sometimes, when they have never been through a m/c do they?

[StormAngel]

Huge congrats to everyone who has gotten their BFP!!!!

[Angelbub]

Hi Everyone,

I'm pretty new to forums, but have been feeling very at home here in this thread. I am 12 and a half weeks pregnant, due June 19, 2008 and it's my second pregnancy. I lost my first baby boy at 19.5 weeks in May this year and the feelings of anxiety never seem far from my mind. Each scan we have I am petrified and I'm not sure how I'm going to cope at the 19 week scan, which will be our milestone. 9 months seems like such a long time! Does anyone have any tips for getting through this long, scary time? I've heard things like breaking the pregnancy down into mini-milestones which helps, but nothing seems to take away the anxiety and fear! Good luck to all on here and what a great thread. As much as I hate that we are all going through this, it's nice to know I'm not alone. :hugs:

[sam's mum]

hi angelbub.

as hard as it sounds, I spent a lot of time having forgotten that I was pregnant. I just put it out of my head.

looking back, it got me through, but it is also really sad. due to problems at delivery this was probably my last pregnancy and I didn't get to enjoy it the way I should have.

I hope it all goes well for you. :hugs:

[Angelbub]

I know what you mean Sam's Mum. It's awful knowing that pregnancy won't be the happy go lucky time we all deserve. My innocence was ripped apart in May and having never known a happy outcome, it makes it that much harder. I have glimpses of positivity, but most of the time it's just fear. I just wish someone could tell me that everything will be alright this time, but I know no one can. Congrats to you! Sounds like you have had a very tough time. :flowerz:

[StormAngel]

Just thought I'd let you all know that I finally got a BFP, I'm due in august! I am terrified.

[rynosmum]

Just thought I'd let you all know that I finally got a BFP, I'm due in august! I am terrified.

Congratulations StormAngel!! It is so very normal to be terrified although it seems to lessen just a little bit each week.

Fantastic news!:yelclap::smiliedance:

[Crazy Monkey]

Congratulations StormAngel...
I know what its like to be terrified, but as the weeks go by you'll feel a little less and then once bubs starts moving it all seems so real and you start to enjoy it...

I have about 2 weeks left, and although I've been a little more stressed this time (due to my m/c) I've loved being pregnant and can't wait to meet my little baby...

All the best to all the mums-to-be for a safe and healthy pregnancy...

[ChrissyK]

I had a mc in jan and i have just found out i'm pregnant again (5 weeks)....i know this is good news but i'm so scared it's going to happen again that i cant even tell my sister. i have 2 beautiful children already, my mc was so unexpected that you could have knocked me over with a feather. can anyone give me some advice on how to move on and enjoy being pregnant again.....please.

Hi Chrissy - congratulations on your pregnancy. This thread is old hence the reason no one has replied as yet.

You can meet everyone of the lovely ladies who are pregnant after m/c in the thread called "the fears and different emotions when pregnant after a m/c - still in this support after pregnancy loss section. Sorry I don't know how to post the link directly to the thread. Hope to see you there soon and that all goes well with your pregnancy. :babydust2:
