@MKRLTX I'm so very sorry. Are they sure you're just not as far along as they thought? Maybe you ovulated late that cycle?
@email2ash I hope everything is OK! I know some spotting/bleeding can be "normal" so hopefully you get some good news on your beta and progesterone check.

Thanks for all of the good vibes ladies! My levels look good at 22,000 and 27.5 Pro. They are moving my ultra sound from next week to this afternoon. Really hoping I come back with good news.
@HgPa - My mom has VW. She had a very hard time keeping a pregnancy. I know a lot about it since she had me believing I had it until I was tested during my first pregnancy and was negative for it. If you ever need info - I could probably help!

Introduce yourself if you haven't yet. I have. Short reintro - 2 boys, 1 cp between the two and a mm before this one. D&E was performed due to suspected molar pregnancy at 10 weeks. Normal pregnancy tissue was found.
How far along are you? 7 weeks and 3 days
How are you doing? Mentally - great! Physically - bleh.
When is your next appointment? I have a follow up sono Friday. I had a sono last week and it showed a perfectly measuring (via O date) fetus but the heart rate was lower than my mw liked and I was bleeding. This sono will determine the viability of this pregnancy and then I won't have another, as long as I don't bleeding again, until 12 weeks.
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes: I'm good. I feel pregnant in all the "right" ways and my bleeding has stopped as of today. I'm really looking forward to seeing what I think is there on Friday and getting even more excited about this baby
GTKY: What is your favorite season and why? Fall, hands down. The colors, the crisp air that I only need a jacket or sweatshirt for, the activities... I love Fall.

My ultra sound went well. I will post in the other discussion. They are not sure why I am spotting and cramping but the baby looks good for 6 weeks and the heartbeat was 113bpm. They told me to keep my ultrasound next week to confirm everything still looks good.
Update for me. Got my betas back! Tuesday they were 1200. Today 3068!! Feeling much better! Going Monday for orientation hopefully scheduling my ultrasound then.
Mom to Madison- 5 and Lillian 2....and now surprise baby #3!
Everything went great!! Baby measuring right at 8 weeks- exactly down to the day it's suppose to. 165 bpm heartbeat. I'll post a pic in the ultrasound thread later today. So much relief!!

Hey y'all, I don't know if there are any other podcast listeners here but wanted to share this pregnancy meditations podcast I stumbled upon. I'm struggling to stay positive and calm and these really seem to help me. Just hoping it might help others, too!
@thatlauragirl Thanks for the suggestion! I have needed similar meditations in the past for anxiety, and this is something I will probably go back to daily.
I know symptoms can stop and go but the only ones I had so far was tired, sore nipples and hungry, I had some lower back pain yesterday and a headache and felt a little nasous, today my nipples aren't hurting, I down know if I'm just paranoid but I'm scared I'll miscarry again. With my other miscarriage I just woke up one morning and all my symptoms were gone. I'm going to take another clear blue digital just to see if the weeks indicator changes with my miscarriage it stayed 1-2weeks when I was 5+weeks.
The hospital finally called back after my midwife had to resend the papers, have a ultrasound apps on Sunday morning, it car come fast enough.
@Mrs.Deruysscher I definitely understand how scary it can be to have symptoms disappear. The same thing that happened with your MC happened with mine also. I woke up one morning with no symptoms and they never came back. I will say, though, that this pregnancy I had symptoms disappear for 3 days at 5 weeks and then again for a day or two around 6w5d. I was getting worried but I just woke up this morning more nauseated than I've been so far and my breasts are so tender they kept waking me up last night. I've decided the thing people say about how symptoms come and go must be true.
I've also noticed that wearing a bra to bed makes a huge difference in how sore my breasts are during the night and the next day. So if you started wearing a bra to bed while your breasts were sore that might be part of why they're feeling a bit better.
Hopefully all goes well at your ultrasound on Sunday.

Introduce yourself if you haven't yet. Hi! I've contributed a little but haven't really been active not wanting to jinx anything! MY name is Marisa, from NY! This is my first ! My EDD is June,6. I had a previous loss May of 2015, no heartbeat when I went for an 8 week check up. Looking forward to getting to know you girls! First time on a board like this.!
How far along are you? 7 weeks 3 days.
How are you doing? Physically ok, - little nausea a couple of times through out the day , my boobs I can't even hug people cause they hurt so bad. Excited and anxious.
When is your next appointment? Wednesday for my 8 week!
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes: Rant: My DH thinks only our parents know. (I told a handful of people because I can't keep my mouth shut) he wants to wait until it's safe considering what happened last time. I understand but still I need someone to vent to when he is at work!!! We already heard the heartbeat and I heard chances of a loss after hearing the heartbeat drop drastically so I'm keeping that with me! I have been going to the doctor almost everyday before my BFP because we did IVF. After we hear it at 8 weeks again insisting we tell the rest of our family and close friends (the ones I didn't slip to yet haha) Rave: I'm just excited Positive vibes: I'm really optimistic about this one and for all of you girls as well! Excited to go on this journey together! I still can't gif.
GTKY: What is your favorite season and why?
FAll is the best of all! I love the crisp air, the colors, the smells, and pumpkin everything.
@NamelessAria thank you I'm trying to be positive told my hubby how I felt he's being encouraging. I can't wait till this ultrasound it should make me feel a little better .
Ugh ultrasound this morning and I think I'm out ladies! We won't know for sure until Tuesday but the tech was less then hopeful. Thought I was 6 weeks and she found nothing without some major zooming in (her words not mine) and then kept saying it's just really really early and there's barely anything there. The whole reason my doctor scheduled was for dating ... still no EDD which tells me we are out.
@mrlight@email2ash thank you! Unfortunately because of the MC the month before we were pretty careful except for 1 time so our dates shouldn't be off by as much as they appeared to be! I just wish we had a definitive answer, it is torture but I guess it gives my body time between now and Tuesday to figure it out!
@bbbee414 I hope it was just a bad ultrasound. Just a few days can make a big difference this early on. I am so sorry you have to be tortured and wait for more info on Tuesday. My thoughts are with you!
Me: 36; DH: 38 DD: 7; DS1: 4; DS2 due 6-21-17! **TW** MMC & D&C Aug 2016
Introduce yourself if you haven't yet. My name is Shanna. I had MC in 9/14, and got pregnant 2 mos later. DD is now almost 15 mos. I had my second MC last month, and had decided to wait a few mos before getting pregnant again, but evidently, we had an oops.
How far along are you? I think I'm 4w3d, but I'm not 100% on that since I didn't have a period after my last MC.
How are you doing? So far so good, except for waking multiple times a night.
When is your next appointment? I don't have anything scheduled yet. My midwife does not see her patients until they are 12 weeks, so I'll probably wait a few weeks before calling for an appointment.
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes: I'm strangely optimistic about my little bean.
GTKY: What is your favorite season and why? When I lived in the PNW, I LOVED the summer. Now that I live in the hot and muggy south, I love the spring. The weather is usually beautiful, and there are gazillions of flowering trees here.
I am so sorry @bbbee414 being in limbo is the worst, I've been there, and I hope you get some good news on Tuesday. Thinking of you.

I had my ultrasound today, I have been having some tender spots near my ovaries, but everything seemed good I got to see our tiny tiny baby and even the heartbeat!! I brought some relief after the way I have been feeling!
@bbbee414 Are they going to do another ultrasound soon?
I'm going to see my OB on Tuesday ... so I'm sure he will want to do one in office. Still no bleeding or anything but it's totally messing with my mind and of course my hubby tries to be supportive but tells me he has to hear it from the doctor first and continues to ignore how I am feeling! Thanks for all of the thoughts ... they are greatly appreciated! I will update Tuesday morning!
