24w & 3 days

I was super excited to make it to 24ws. However OB check up was yesterday, since being seen every week in the high risk clinic I am now on a heart monitor. After experiencing several heart palpitations docs are concerned. I got a EKG done in the beginning of pregnancy because I was experiencing heart palpitations which ofc came back normal. Now I’m finally being monitored. I’m happy and sad b/c it’s so much with having an autoimmune disease and being pregnant. My first child is 3 and I didn’t have to go through any of this. Some days are definitely easier than others 😮‍💨

Is anyone else on a heart monitor or have been while pregnant?

hey mama I am not on a monitor but i wanted to stop through and say keep pushing you are strong and im praying you and your baby both see this pregnancy happy and healthy 🩷💙

No but I also have an autoimmune disease and just want to say hang in there ! Being high risk is so stressful sometimes and exhausting. Thinking of you 🖤 I will say being African American as well puts us at higher risks and I’m taking all the precautions and extra monitoring being thrown at me. We gotta stay alive for these babies too. You are in my prayers !

What date would you use?

I had an early pregnancy scan and according to my Last Menstrual Period (LMP) I am 8 weeks and 2 days but when I had my scan I was 8 weeks and 4 days. This slightly changed my due date by 2 days. Then again sonographer said that the NHS will give me a due date. Im so confused.

For now… which date would u go by? LMP or scan date?

Early scan

Hi girls went for early scan today thinking I was 7 weeks but measuring 6+1 has anyone’s ever changed later on to what they thought they was? Abit confused as av had bad morning sickness for a week which means it would have started at 5 weeks
