Miscarriage

I think I’m having a miscarriage. Since Wednesday I’ve been spotting brown blood quite a lot but today it’s turned into blood and having cramps like period cramps. I’m 8 weeks. I’ve called EPU but haven’t heard back from them yet. I just know it’s a miscarriage

Early scans?

Hey girls! I am roughly 6 weeks pregnant and found out because I was having very bad cramps. I had a scan last week which showed gestational sac and this week a yolk sac inside but still no heartbeat. I have been discharged from epu until routine 12 week scan. I have a previous diagnosis of endometriosis so the cramps could be caused by this but am I right in saying with the cramping and pain I should be seen once more to confirm a heartbeat?
T.I.A a nervous first time mum🙈🫶🏻🫶🏻

Periods

Hey so did anyone else have really heavy periods when they came back? I'm on what I believe to be my second period (7 months post partum) and its like the great flood or something its crazy.

Recurring miscarriages and feeling so low

I’ve recently had a d&c, this will be my 5th miscarriage.

I’m feeling incredibly low and honestly the only reason I feel I’m here is for my toddler. He is the only thing that brings me any light at the moment.

I don’t feel that my best friend (who I’ve told about my miscarriages) is bothered in the slightest about me and feels as though I’m an effort to message or
Check in on.

I feel people don’t understand that one or two losses is upsetting as it is but 5 is really making me think how different my life is going to be compared to how I thought it would be.

My partners family haven’t bothered asking about me and my mum is supportive but just says it will happen when it does.

I get nobody can help but I feel like
I’m getting further and further into a dark hole and I don’t know what to do ☹️

Breech baby at 34 weeks

Hey , really stressed I’m 34 weeks plus 6 days and baby is in breech when did your babies move really scared of having to have a c section & any tips on how to get baby to move 😭

Elective for first birth?

I’m 11 weeks pregnant and have known since before conception I wanted a c-section. I have only known friends who had traumatic natural births and do not want to risk the “worst of both worlds” with a traumatic natural birth and THEN emergency c-section anyway.
Has anyone else here done this, if so how did you go about telling your midwife, and friends?! I feel there’s so much judgement even though it is supposedly MY choice.

Movements

I’m 18+4 with my 2nd baby and like with my first I have an anterior placenta. I can’t remember off the top of my head when I first felt his movements but so far I’ve not felt baby girl. I thought I had flutters about a month ago but nothing since. Everywhere (including midwives) suggest that with a 2nd pregnancy you can feel movements sooner as you know what to look out for but for me it’s not the case. I just don’t feel anything. I had a private scan a week ago and she was happy healthy and moving around. With my first I had many trips to triage as I couldn’t feel him and I can see this being the case this time. I’m just not sure when to expect to feel anything and at what point I should raise it with somebody. Feel as if I should know this being my 2nd pregnancy 🤦🏼‍♀️
