Pregnant after a Loss

New to this board!

Well I wanted to come over and say hello. I have been posting in the 1st tri board and thought I would here also.  I will be 7 wks on Saturday after a m/c in September.  I am hoping I get to stay longer this time but I don't know.  Had a dr.s appt earlier this week and dr. is concerned about another m/c.  Get blood results back tomorrow.  Trying to keep my head up and praying for good news!

  • hi and welcome! so sorry about your previous loss. why does your dr think you may mc again? is he just monitoring you to be safe, or was there a cause for alarm?

    fyi, even when there is a "cause for alarm" (ie, measuring behind, spotting, etc) it doesn't necessarily mean anything's wrong. i had quite a slew of issues with this pregnancy, and so far so good!

  • Welcome..hope they have good news for you tomorrow!

  • Dr. is worried because there was some bleeding when I went in for an early u/s.  It was before the appt so it wasn't from that.  Also, they did not find a h/b when they did the u/s, but it was just over 6 wks so it could just be too early.  That is where his conern is coming from.

     Th good news is the bleeding lasted less than 8 hours and was not accompanied by any cramps.  IT was not heavy either, but was more than spotting.  This is nothing like my last m/c so that is helping me stay somewhat positive.

    that's right, stay positive. i had spotting for three days with this pregnancy... followed by u/s that showed i was measuring a week behind (and i charted, so it was still measuring behind from when i ovulated) and they couldn't find the hb until i was 8.5 weeks (measuring 7.5). it was weeks or uncertainty and scariness. but hang in there hun, i am hoping you get great results back soon. when's your next u/s?

  • I had blood drawn on Tuesday and again today.  I will get those numbers back tomorrow and then I go in for another u/s on Tuesday morning.  It has been a ong 3 days waiting on the blood work results, but I am just ready to know, one way or the other.  Waiting is harder than not knowing to me.  I want to be positive but I don't want to get my hopes up too much and then get let down!
  • Welcome to the board and I hope you get good news from your doctor! Stay positive!
