Pregnant after a Loss

Went to the OB

I went in today because of my fall. I called the advice nurse about my back and said the "P" word so everyone freaked out and made an appointment for me today even though I had an appointment scheduled for Wednesday. 

I went in, told them the whole story. Then she did an u/s. There is a baby there! I have never seen that before (blighted ovum with first pregnancy). I am measuring 6w1d which is 1 day ahead of what I thought (so pretty much right on) and she said she saw a little flicker of a hb. I didn't see anything because it was so small!

My regular OB then canceled my appointment that I had set on Wednesday where the RE would have done the same thing. I called the RE to confirm and she released me to my regular OB.

I go back in in 3 weeks for my first real prenatal appointment (9 weeks). I am so relieved. Still not telling family. I think maybe after the next appointment.

Re: Went to the OB

  • congrats even though it took a fall...

    I first saw my LO at 6w6d because I was bleeding. Sometimes I think things happen so we're reassured early

  • Thank. I would gladly have waited until Wednesday if it meant my back felt better. It is so sore from falling on my ass/back
