Re: PGAL Check-in w/o 6/12

  • Oh, weird symptoms. I'm really, really pale. I've lost my natural Irish blush. And my skin and hair are oily like I'm 16 again.

  • @FyreFlyeRush yes, we totally get it. I’m glad your symptoms are back. And I’m with you on the oily skin. I can’t tell if I’m pregnant or going through puberty.

  • Thank you all on the tips!

    @kbrown2385 yesssss!!!!!! This is the best news, let those happy tears flow ❤️❤️
  • @kbrown2385 - I'm so so happy for you, I'm literally tearing up. Such wonderful news!!!!
  • @marebear15 ❤️❤️

    @carrieandr I really can’t believe this is finally happening for us. You are so right. We’ve had enough bad news, time for the good to keep flowing! 
  • @kbrown2385 Your news makes me so happy!!! Glad to have some good news for you and your family. Cry those tears of joy!

    @FyreFlyeRush I'm glad this post exists too. It's nice to have a community of people who get it and I'm glad you decided to join!
  • @kbrown2385 I’m so so so so happy for you!!!
  • 1. How many weeks are you? 9 weeks 

    2. Previous loss(es)? Miscarriage at 6/7 weeks in January 18. Had D&C in Mar 18 and again in May 18 (didnt get it all the first time).

    3. How are you feeling? Emotionally and physically? Physically I feel pretty good. Emotionally I am ok I guess. I was nervous because of the miscarriage, and still a bit nervous. We had been trying to get prpregnat since September. And the first time I got pregnant with my twins it happened the same month we started trying , and the same with when we got pregnant and had the miscarriage so it seemed odd that it was taking a while to get pregnant. So no I'm just trying to stay positive.

    4. Any appointment updates? Just had my first appointment and ultrasound. They said baby looks good and heartbeat was good. However they found a 2cm internal bleed. Not entirely sure what it means, but makes me even more nervous now. So they gave me a progesterone shot and told me to come next week for another shot then the next week an ultrasound to check on it again.

    5. Rants/Raves/Questions? Anyone had an internal bleed before?

    6. Any milestones coming up? Another ultrasound in 2 weeks

    7. GTKY: What tv show are you currently watching? I've been binge watching the closer 
  • 1. How many weeks are you? 
    9 weeks 4 days 

    2. Previous loss(es)? Miscarriage 2/19 and a D&C 4/19

    3. How are you feeling? Emotionally and physically? 
    Well I am just so ready for my Dr. appointment on Monday!! My last appointment at 7 weeks 5 days went great and baby had a strong heartbeat of 158!! Couldn’t stop crying I was so happy!!  So that appointment really helped alleviate my worries for a while. Week 8 was the worst for me symptom wise so I knew everything was still trucking along so I was feeling great!!! But at week 9 my symptoms aren’t as strong so now the anxiety is building back up. I need to see my baby’s heartbeat ASAP!  I wish I could get a sonogram everyday lol 

    4. Any appointment updates? 
    Next appointment is this coming Monday!! I’ll be 10 weeks!! 

    5. Rants/Raves/Questions? My husband is gone for military training for the next 3 weeks so I am spending my last few weeks in my first trimester solo!! Thankfully before he left, we worked together to deep clean the house because Lord knows I have no energy after a long day at work and making this baby!! Lol 

    6. Any milestones coming up?
    My ultrasound Monday and telling my in laws we are pregnant again this Father’s Day weekend! It’s on a preordered gift my husband bought his dad! 

    7. GTKY: What tv show are you currently watching?
    Good Girls! SOO good!! Also been watching Sopranos but it got a little dark so I am taking a little break lol and as always Friends and Roseanne lol my 2 favorites!
  • @twinmommy13 I'm a FTM and it hasn't happened in any of my pregnancies or people that I know of. I would say trust your doctor and fx everything is ok!
  • 1. How many weeks are you? 8w4d

    2. Previous loss(es)? Lost my son at 17 weeks in October 2016

    3. How are you feeling? Emotionally and physically? This pregnancy was a huge surprise and is pretty much a miracle as I went through 8 rounds of IVF and have 1 living child. We were told naturally conceiving was almost impossible but here we are. I’m trying to stay positive and cherish each day I am pregnant since I never thought I would get to experience this again but some days I totally lose my shit and convince myself the baby has died. It’s going to be a long road. 

    4. Any appointment updates? 
    I saw MFM yesterday for my first visit and realized I have PTSD from the last time, as it was a routine appointment where we discovered my son had passed. I couldn’t look at the screen until my husband said he saw the heartbeat again and I started sobbing. I hope it gets easier. I’m reassured for now and see my OB tomorrow and am supposed to have another scan.  
    5. Rants/Raves/Questions? 

    6. Any milestones coming up?
    Each week is a milestone for me! 
    7. GTKY: What tv show are you currently watching? I don’t really watch TV. I’m more of a scroll the internet to decompress kind of gal. 
  • @kbrown2385 This is such wonderful news! 
  • @twinmommy0816 did the dr call it a sub chorionic hemorrhage or sch? They are fairly common. Most resolve on their own and are usually nothing to worry about. I have seen that it’s possible you could spot or bleed with the sch and the baby still be fine. I would just take it easy and call your dr for clarification or any questions you have. 
  • @kbrown2385 he didnt call it that but he did say that in 2 weeks when they do another ultrasound he'd know a little more and that it may just be asymmetrical I think is what he said. And thank you....reading crim others that they know of them and that all was ok makes me feel better.
  • @twinmommy0816 I had an sch in my last pregnancy, but it was my 3rd miscarriage. The baby had Trisomy 22, so the sch wasn’t the cause. All I can say is the doctor told me the bleed would probably resolve on it’s own and I’d either absorb the blood or have some spotting.

    @hannahturm28 in my daughter’s pregnancy, nausea started slowly improving for me after 8-9 weeks. The placenta starts working at 8 weeks and takes over by 12 weeks. Nausea decreases as it takes over.

    @DalexRN I have ptsd, too. Getting u/s’s or seeing them on tv or Facebook all mess me up. I was shaking for a while after my u/s on Wednesday even though it went well. And I started crying before the tech even began.

  • @twinmommy0816, I had a SCH with my son and spotted from week 6 to week 8. I was told it was minor and nothing to worry about. Then, one random day during week 8, it just suddenly stopped. Everything ended up being fine. 
  • @twinmommy0816 - It looks like you got pregnant the month of your last D&C. Sounds pretty fast to me! I've never had a bleed, but I've heard of a lot of others who have and those seem to resolve themselves in a few weeks. Good luck!
  • @marebear15 my last D&C was may 2018 and we started trying agaiagain in sep 2018and dididdididndididdididnt get pregnant until April 2019. And thank you all for the encouragement, just knowing others have had this or know someone that has and had healthy pregnancies helps put me at ease.
  • 5 days till my ultrasound and I’m getting super nervous. It just came to me that having symptoms means nothing when last MC
    I had strong symptoms up to two weeks after it all ended. Ughhh

    I have my first midwife intake the day before the ultrasound I’ll be 12 weeks. Would they consider using a doppler or is that too early ? 
  • @twinmommy0816 - I'm so sorry, I forgot what year it was currently. TTC is such a mental load especially for that long, and I can understand bringing that mentality into a pregnancy is rough. Just remember that you are pregnant today.
  • @DalexRN i literally cried reading about how you couldn't look until you saw the hr, my head is also completely screwed up since my losses

    @c1kc1kpol1cn1k i have complete faith youre going to have a great appointment, im not sure if your midwife will use a doppler but wouldnt hurt to ask..


    1. How many weeks are you? 10+4 measuring 11

    2. Previous loss(es)? Chemical 1/19 7w3d March 29th 

    3. How are you feeling? Emotionally and physically? Im so grateful to be pregnant but man i feel like kahkah, no energy and always sick

    4. Any appointment updates? I graduated from my RE today and cried. Im excited ive made it this far but im so scared and im going to miss the comfort of seeing my lo. Have my first ob Wednesday 

    5. Rants/Raves/Questions? All of those doctors where i live are connected by one big company and i dont like it and it wasnt like that in fl, is that a common thing? 

    6. Any milestones coming up? Hopefully nipt soon if my doc will do it, baby looked great today kicking and all that jazz. 

    7. GTKY: What tv show are you currently watching? Were watching dynasty and (dont judge haha) the bachelorette. 
     
    I have a lot of trouble staying active with my fears, dont even use the other boards because im so scared to get attached. Ive been able to use my doppler which helps with daily anxiety but i just am scared :(
  • First OB today, and my partner forgot and made other plans. I guess I'm going to face the big bad ultrasound machine alone. I am not looking forward to it. 
  • @FyreFlyeRush I’ll be keeping you in my thoughts today! I’ve got everything crossed for great news! Please let us know how’s it goes. Hugs ❤️
  • @FyreFlyeRush I hope your appointment went okay. And my DH has never come to an u/s and this is my 5th pregnancy. 🤦‍♀️ Luckily my mom comes along.

    4. Any appointment updates? First OB appointment 6/24.

    5. Rants/Raves/Questions? Rant. A little. I got laid off of my job of 13 years last week and Friday was my last day. Rave, I’m grateful I don’t have the stress of having to find a job right away, but am also nervous about being a full time stay at home Mom. 

    6. Any milestones coming up? The anticipation of the first ultrasound is always the hardest. My appointment is on Monday and it can’t come soon enough.

  • @FyreFlyeRush - I'm so glad you had a reassuring ultrasound and that your SO was able to go with you.
  • @mispanda - Definitely join us! A loss impacts us in a way that never leaves.
  • @mispanda I am the exact same way. I even bring a flashlight in during the night so I can check in the dark. It’s hard to not freak out after suffering losses. Know you aren’t alone 😘
  • @mispanda -  I asked the same question before I started posting, and everyone has been super inviting.  You should definitely join in.
