Chemical Pregnancy/Early Miscarriage Support

Has anyone had sickness/nausea with a chemical pregnancy? Especially anyone with a history of HG

Would love to hear from women with shared experiences, I’m feeling in limbo.

I know a period or positive test will eventually tell me whether I am or not pregnant, but I’m finding the limbo quite tough.

A bit of back story: last cycle I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks (no symptoms but definitely positive tests), that was my first cycle after losing a baby at 14 weeks back in August (I had severe nausea and lost 1.5 stone). Before that pregnancy I had a few very early chemical pregnancies (faintly positive tests, no symptoms, then a period less than a week later). 5 years ago I had a baby and had severe nausea again losing 2.5 stone during pregnancy.

I am currently 19 dpo and have been testing for the last 10 days. 12-15 dpo I had faint positives however all negatives since then. I am 5/6 days late for my period and have had nausea for the last 4 days when I eat (exactly like the nausea I get during pregnancy)

Erm I think each pregnancy can be different, I was the opposite in that I had more symptoms with my chemical pregnancy, nausea, feeling unwell, breast discomfort. But with my now successful pregnancy I didn't feel different at all. I wouldn't solely go on symptoms as the hormone is still produced a little at the start with a chemical or a successful pregnancy, that is what gives you those symptoms, if that makes sense. Maybe you ovulated later than you think, or the cycle is a bit longer than normal? But just go on tests at this stage. Pre period symptoms can be very similar to early pregnancy also, you have to wait it out unfortunately to see. I hope your time is now though and your rainbow is on the way, if not don't lose hope it'll come 🙏🏼🌈 x

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

2nd pregnancy after c section

I’m not planning on getting pregnant anytime soon but in the future possibly. I just wanted to know how is pregnancy after c section like my fear is having to go through another emergency operation or even putting strain on my incision during pregnancy

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
