Instinct

chance_encounters

Ok ladies. I don't know why but I just can not shake the feeling that I have lost this baby. I really am not bloated and all my clothes fit fine. This is my 4th child but 19th pg. In 2010 I had a missed m/c at 9 weeks but was not discovered until 12 weeks at my nt scan. I still had morning sickness at this point. I have had little to no symptoms this pg..... I have called my dr. And told them about my anxiety and they have told me I have an appt in 2 weeks and they are sure I am "fine". I am very much an OCD personality. I seriously can not get past this feeling. My next u/s is 12/11. Please. Good bad or ugly, has your instinct been right when you felt this? I never felt this I my son (now 10 months).

I think there is something to be said about a gut instinct. My first three pregnancies I just knew something was wrong and I was right every time, sadly. With this one I've had a good feeling from the start and everything looks great so far. I know lots of pgal women always have a fear and negativity just due to their history and things turn out to be fine. I'm sure its hard but I would just try to be positive...your u/s is coming up soon. Sending lots of T&P your way that everything is ok.

I had a similar experience with the missed m/c around 9 weeks but didn't find out til the nt scan. This time around I thought it was going to happen again. They doc squeezed me in for an u/s at 10 weeks and I literally went in thinking "well it's going to be over now, at least we know now instead of waiting" and everything was fine....and has continued to be fine. I'll be thinking and praying for your u/s to go well in a couple of weeks, hang in there! Hugs!!

I completely understand this feeling. I haven't had a lot of symptoms, and my PGAL mind always has that fear that when I go in for my US (I will be 8 weeks, 6 days, this Tuesday), it will show a missed miscarriage or a blighted ovum. I'm not sure I can differentiate between fear and instinct at this point. But I keep telling myself, I have no real reason to believe that anything is wrong, so I try to remain positive that everything is just fine, and that this is just my pregnancy experience. Not everyone has all of the textbook or classic signs and symptoms. Hang in there!!

My instinct has been off with this pregnancy. I had bad feelings,just sure that the baby wasn't growing , but everything is going okay so far. I've had 3 appts, 2 ultrasounds. I hope what you are feeling is anxiety and fear and that you are wrong about something being wrong with baby. You'll be in my t&p. Big (((hugs))). Let us know how your next appt goes.

I never felt good about this pregnancy but am 22w today. With dd I felt good about things and it ended with my DD.

I think after a loss it's easy to look back on the pregnancy and say, "yeah, I just knew", but I'm not sure if that's necessarily true, or just sorta comforting to think we 'just knew'.

I hope it's just nerves.

My instinct has been completely wrong with this pregnancy. I thought it was over a few times but I am now about 3 weeks away from meeting my baby boy. Sending T's&P's that your instinct is wrong as well. (((hugs)))
