Here is rooting for all three of you! I suspect that at least some of you have had a previous mc? That must be so worrying, I worried enough without it! I was convinced they would tell me I was not actually pregnant. Hoping for three bouncy beanies.

Fingers crossed for you all, I have recently been there done that having been on the August mc thread with you all.

I'm 13 weeks with this one now and the relief is amazing I actually feel like I will have a baby at the end of this pregnancy. It's hard to describe but the last 8 or so weeks were so hard I hardly talked about the baby or even thought about it. I had a scan at 8 weeks which showed a heartbeat but then I had bleeding at 10 weeks and all the feelings came back, EPAS were too busy to scan me so I had to wait 2 weeks then when I was told I wouldn't get a scan until 16 weeks I told a few white lies and got a scan and everythind is fine.

I know it's a worrying time but once you are past it, it's great.

Sorry to hear that. Things arent going to well for me in this pregnancy either - lots of bleeding. I will look out for you on the ttc after mc thread (i still lurk). Hopefully you will have some good news soon.

Yes great news about Jules!

What a nightmare Sweetkitty - but such good news - im really hoping i get to 12 weeks!

I know Lcy a complete nightmare now I hope I can start to enjoy this last pregnancy.

Best of luck too I have had 4 pregnancies, 2 had bleeding (one really heavy) one ended in mc and only one had no bleeding at all. Some women just bleed in pregnancy but everything turns out fine.

Its a crap after having a mc. i want to be able to moan about feeling tired and look at buggies and dream about my little baby - but i dont even let myself think that this pregnancy will end in a baby because it was so emotionally painful when i lost my last pregnancy

Fingers crossed for you ILTS (and you too Lcy). It must be a really difficult time for you at the moment - I'm sure I'll feel the same when I get that BFP. But the odds are in your favour - recurrent mc is very rare.
SK so pleased to hear about your scan results. Hopefully you can start to relax a bit now and start looking forward to having a baby. It's a shame mc does this to us...
Jackstini good to hear from you and do come and join us on the ttc boards when you feel ready.

Hi cricri - hope you get your BFP soon x

sweetkitty · 02/01/2008 17:07

I do feel blessed that I had the 2 DDs before the mc so I was completely naive and thought that BFP = baby. I feel this pregnancy has been tarnished by all the worry I have had having had the mc. I told DP yesterday that not a day goes past that I don't think about the baby we lost and that I always know how far along I would have been, he seemed shocked. I think mc changes a bit of you forever.

Hopefully for all of us though we will have another LO in our arms soon.

I also meant to say sorry to hear that you had had another mc Jackstini
I know what you mean SK - I worry about another mc and I'm not even pg again yet. Just have to keep positive though.

ILTS - You will probably feel better when you have a scan date. I try and think that even if this one mc's we will keep trying and have a successful pregnancy one day.

It is lovely to speak to everyone again from the miscarriage boards - even if it is under these circumstances - all of your support really helped me get through my mc

ILTS - do you have some nice things to look forward to whilst your waiting for scan. I have booked to go theatre, cinema, meet friends for dinner etc.. much more than i would usually do so i dont have to sit at home stressing. It seems to be working because i feel less crazy
