2nd miscarriage

I got told today that I’ve had a missed miscarriage after I had an early reassurance scan on Wednesday where they couldn’t see anything.

I’m obviously really sad and devastated. Yet, with my first miscarriage in March, I was an emotional wreck but today I’ve cried and then I’m not sure if I’m numb or I’m in shock as my brain seems to have gone straight to ‘we need to try again’ mode.

I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve not bled yet so it’s like it’s not real, even though I know it is or what..

I think my fiancé is waiting for me to snap or break but there’s just nothing. It feels so weird.

Has anyone else felt like this?

I am in the same boat. Also my 2nd. I told my husband there is some relief from the anxiety that I'm not longer "anticipating that the shoe will drop" but I realized how silly that sounds seeing as my relief came from the "shoe dropping"?. I think as this experience has already happened, there may be more of a prep in your mind/numbness. I definitely feel some of that numbness as well. Please take care of yourself ❣️

C section.

I’m booked in for a c section next weds due to GD and big baby

However they have told me I haven’t got a definite time as I’m technically on like a reserve’s list but top of the list.
I could potentially turn up weds n be told to go home due to emergencies etc..
Has anyone else had this?
I’m based at chesterfield hospital if that helps.

This doesn’t help my anxiety after traumatic first emergency section.

Any advice/experiences would be appreciated.

Is this a bloody show or am I bleeding?

Maybe tmi but I was having what I thought was Braxton hicks last 2 days but more intense last night then went to toilet had bit of blood. More this morning. I'm due up in hospital for a scan today anyway as baby was transverse at last scan. Don't really remember bloody show last time. This is baby num 4. Husband in England for work and not due home to late tomorrow night so worried he will miss birth. Pains have stopped now apart from bit of period cramps

Contractions

Girls what did your contractions feel like? I feel like I’ve trauma blocked my contractions with the pain from getting induced with my first 😂😂

I’ve been getting quite intense period pain type feelings. They’re inconsistent so I don’t believe I’m in labour I think it’s just my body prepping! X

Pelvic pain

Any tips for pelvic pain. The only area of pain I have is right in between my legs especially on the left side. It’s agonising if I move in a certain way. And nothing seems to be easing it. I’m 35 weeks and I don’t know if I can do it for another 5 🩵
