Miscarriage again ???

Me and hubby had sex yesterday morning. After I wiped and had a pink tinge. We laid around, took a nap, watched a movie, went to the store and picked up food and I hadn’t used the bathroom until I got home, where there was runny dark red discharge. I immediately flipped because blood is what I didn’t want to see… I’m supposed to be 10 weeks but measuring behind at 8w today. We rushed to the hospital and in summary, they think I’m miscarrying bc they couldn’t find a heartbeat… When we seen one at my 6w2 day appointment !!! The bleeding gradually became less and it darkened to brown and honestly I’m not cramping at all and haven’t been. The measurements on the crl and mean gestational sac are way smaller than they should be I suppose …I’m afraid baby stopped growing. I’ve been through this before at 9w stopped growing at 8w. This morning there’s actually no bleeding, I’m hoping that was just from sex and that this hospital has a less effective machine than my doctor and just couldn’t find it. I’m so scared and don’t know how to get through this weekend to Monday thinking we lost our baby again … I fell in love so fast again and I’m afraid I jumped the gun again … I pray they’re still growing

SN: they mentioned my cervix was closed which I took as a very good thing

Could be from having sex. Happened to me twice, I know it’s hard but try to remain positive and wait until you see your OB. I’ll be keeping you in my prayers mama 💕

Thank you guys ❤️

Praying for you guys!

Did they do a vaginal US or were they trying to find a heartbeat another way?

they did vaginal and it actually took longer than my doctor does, just looking at my ovaries and uterus. I’m actually still bleeding now

I mean if it is a miscarriage, there is no saving the baby. If I’m bleeding from Miscarriage , My body has already started the process. They told me to follow up in I bleed more than 3 days or in 10 days which I already had my next appointment in 10 days. I’m not in pain so I’m going Monday

I'm sorry to hear that❤️ Sex can't cause a miscarriage, so don't think you did anything wrong. Have you had any other kids before or just the two pregnancies? If you're not able to hold on to pregnancies, you may have a hormone issue that needs to be supplemented.

just the 2. You’re right… Idk why my body can’t maintain. Thanks for the comment

Update, I did miscarry on Monday in my own no medicine or surgery. Definitely tough but my husband was by my side and we somewhat got the water north we wanted. It was very intimate and spiritual despite the circumstances. I’m so glad to be loved so much… we agree we are not discouraged and will try again soon

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

Planned c section

Has anyone had a planned c section and been home the same day?

Getting pregnant after c section

When did you get pregnant again after a c section? Our plan was always to have 2 under 2 but that is now out the window because I had an emergency section. I know they say 18 months and we will be sticking to it (as much as I don’t want to) but I’m curious how quickly you got pregnant after your section?

Movements

I’m 28 weeks tomorrow. Yesterday I had loads and loads of movements but today I have only felt small flutters and a couple of kicks throughout the day. I get so confused as some people say they don’t have a pattern but others say they do. We have a Doppler so used it this evening and could hear the heartbeat and then moving but does anyone else get quieter days of movement than others? I am seeing my midwife tomorrow so will check but just find myself getting anxious about it and don’t know when to get checked. I know they encourage it but last time as soon as I got to triage baby started moving loads!

Leaving baby for date night

How old was your baby the first time you left them for a night alone with your partner or friends? How long did you leave them for and who did you leave them with?
