Having a panic

I just wanted to have a little panic. I almost 8 weeks, scan booked in sat. I've had mmc before and I feel like my symptoms have lessoned and my last successful pregnancy, I had HG. I'm just so worried. I still have nausea. I just can't do it again, it's not just the mmc it's the dealing with it all. The waiting for the next pregnancy, the wait till the scans. I just want it all to be ok. 🙏🏼 Trying not to let the anxiety hit but mannnnnn. Please be ok.

Pregnancy after loss is so tough and really plays with your mind. Try and distract yourself. The worst hasn’t happened so just remember every pregnancy is different and this one is going great! You don’t have to wait too long now to see bub! Fingers crossed you see a little heartbeat and all is well. Send us pics and an update of its little heartbeat!! X❤️

So I had a MMC last pregnancy baby was 10 weeks and I found out at my 12 week scan

I’m 10 weeks now and a few days ago my symptoms completely eased up and I was panicking like mad , I was sure the same had happened again like I just knew it in my gut , I went for a scan and baby was absolutely fine, so I guess it is ok for symptoms to fluctuate, I know the panic though it isn’t easy but keep faith that everything will be ok xxx

I’m in the same boat. I’ve had a few days where I feel absolutely vile. Nausea, extreme tiredness, headache but today I feel absolutely fine and I’m terrified again !! I’m 7 weeks and it’s all so scary after a MMC last year.

I had a scan Tuesday so I keep telling myself baby was absolutely fine then and that symptoms are not all day everyday !! Xx

Thank you. I'm jotting down my symptoms every day to try and remind myself I am having some even if they are light. I just want my scan so I know where I stand x

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!

Invited to a chuckie cheese party but I don't have money and don't want to tell my daughter that's why we can't go. Does anyone know how their parties work?

I'm not sure how chuckie cheese parties are. If they give you money to play or not if you're in the party. And then I'm wondering if it's an actual birthday party or if they're just going to chuckie cheese. Some guy in my building told me a couple weeks ago that his son's birthday is today and he's thinking of doing chuckie cheese. They sent an invite but I feel so insecure not being able to afford anything. Like if they don't have food for example. Idk what to do.

20week scan!!
