Hey mommies!

I have a question because I feel like I might be pregnant, but not sure. Me and my husband are trying, so I was spotting last week for like 3 days then it stopped and I threw up twice and I had a metallic taste in my mouth. And today I was spotting in the morning and now i stopped and I took three pregnancy tests last week and it came back negative. So what you guys think?

It depends on how early you might be

My last period was on the 19th of last month

You might be too early to tell. I would keep track on how you feel and whats going on and test again around the time you'd get your next period. And mention everything to your doctor. When I was pregnant with my daughter I knew I was pregnant before my missed period but didn't get a positive until around or after my missed period. So you never know. And everyone is different. Hoping and wishing you the best though!

All of those sounds like symptoms of pregnancy and if you had your period on the 19th of April then the test may come back as negative because you're too early in. Best results is after a missed period.

I would say wait it out maybe you’re too early for a urine test. Blood tests are the most reliable. Try to get in with your PCP or go to an urgent care and they can do a blood test.

High risk

I’m considered high risk because I was fully dilated when I had an emergency C-section with my first and there’s risks I could go into pre term labour so I have cervical length scans every 2 weeks between 16-22/24 and I’m aloud to try for a vbac if I go into spontaneous labour by 40 weeks but I’ll have a planned C-section booked for week 40 ( which I’m really hoping doesn’t happen )Just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences I’m just very overwhelmed and hoping people have maybe had a good successful full term pregnancy & birth despite what IVE previously mentioned x

6.2 days no heart beat

So from my flo ap, I was supposed to be 6.2 days yesterday which is when I had an internal scan. everything was seen but no heartbeat :( she measured me at 2.2 mm which is more like 5+5 weeks but I’m freaking out. Any positive stories please :(

Anyone had a growth scan around these dates?

I’ve got scans;
26+5
27+3
28+5

And just wondering what everyone’s babies weighed on/around these dates ? (And what centiles)

My oldest has a scan at 27+6 so I know roughly with that but interested to know how much growth tends to happen in such a short period ?

Middle name

We are fairly convinced we’ve decided on baby girls first name - Josephine (Josie) - but struggling for a middle name.

We’ve already got a boy Oziah (Ozzy) Sampson, and a girl Cassandra (Cassie) Evangeline. Last name beginning with E

Also open to other options all together as backups 😅

12 week blood test

Hi, I had the blood test at 12 weeks to check for ds and it’s being over 2 weeks now and I haven’t had a letter or a call saying the results, now I guess I will take that as good news but part of me not knowing still wants to chase🤣 does anyone know if I contacted my midwife she would be able to access if they have come back? Or should I just wait until my 16 week appointment to see🫣
