Rainbow Baby 🌈🌈

After an early miscarriage late last year, I've spent the last few weeks a ball of nerves and not really allowing myself to believe that we were pregnant again...

Well yesterday we got to meet our little rainbow baby at an early reassurance scan and was very surprised to know I'm already 10 weeks!!

Anyone else looking at a 6th September due date?!

Thankyou I'm keeping everything crossed got first midwife on Tuesday so I'll then have the wait till my 12 week scan and hope baby's heart I'd still beating when we go to that scan as that's what happened last time went for a private scan and heard those words I'm sorry I can't detect the heartbeat after we had seen one. Tbh it's not been to bad for me nausea is more at night doesn't affect me through the day. Boobs are on fire and sore all the time and I'm constantly tired but wake 3 times a night to pee lol. I'm a complete bag of nerves as I'm the same gestation I was last time when we lost baby 💔 so it's hard for me at the minute. It's nice to have support around me. How are you coping xx

Congratulations xxx

oh I can only imagine how hard that must have been but yes having good support is everything. We lost our last baby at 8 weeks after a couple of bleeds and being told everything would be fine so when we got to 8 weeks this time I felt like I was holding my breath.

I'm doing ok. I've had a bit of nausea but nothing like I had with my little girl. In all honesty, my little girl has been really poorly the last week so I've felt preoccupied with getting her right so it was a lovely surprise when we had our scan on Friday and everything looked good xxx

Awww good I've got 2 weeks ish to wait till my 12 week so feel like I'll be holding my breath for the next 2 weeks and awww in so glad your little baba is good a healthy xxx

Avatar

still very nervous and haven’t really allowed myself to enjoy this pregnancy much yet 🥺 but feeling like I’m slowly relaxing as days go by. We had 2 losses so I think it quite normal to feel this way. Hope you are able to enjoy it a little bit too. 🥰

5th September ❤️

oh bless you, but yes I agree I didn't really allow myself to believe it was real until last week. Hope you're able to enjoy it a little bit too 🥰

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

39 weeks pregnant FTM

39 weeks baby hasn’t come yet and I am just full of anxiety. I am trying to relax. I am trying to chill, but I can’t chill. I do not want to be induced. I would love to have her natural. Issue is I am tight down there and petite and baby is measuring big like the head especially. I know that measurements can be off. But I have photos! And she is a chunk. This is so unpredictable. How do I just put my faith forward and trust in God and how do I let go of this anxiety? I am doing fine and then boom it hits me and I want to ball my eyes out. I am trying to treat myself and do little things but driving or doing anything is so hard now and I’m so huge and uncomfortable …I’m at my breaking point 😭

So ready for second trimester 🥲

I really really hate the first trimester. It’s exhausting, no appetite, not enough hours to get the amount of sleep I need, headaches, smell sensitivity, and overall just feeling like crap! And I don’t want to announce anything until 14 weeks since I’ve had losses before, and it’s getting really hard to hide it from my friends. Two more weeks to go….

Just needed to vent to others who understand!
