re: We moved! *link*

I've had people tell me I look like I'm sick...lol I'm not one of the lucky pregnancy glow people

Quoting Whoahbabyy:" Well i had a miscarriage :/ i ended up passing the baby as soon as i got to the hospital. I guess it ... [snip!] ... ill get my fall baby or christmas baby   thank you all for your continous support in this. It really did make it a lil easier."

I am so very sorry, love   I had really hoped it wasn't the case. And when I woke up this morning, you were the first thing I thought about --- getting to the computer to see how you were doing.

I understand wanting to pretend it hadn't happened and I found myself doing the same. It's been 3mth & 1wk since I lost.... I still think of my angel baby, but time does help it to hurt a little less. There is nothing to say to you that will make this better. This isn't something you will "get over," but rather something you will learn to live with.

You might find comfort in friends & family, so please reach out to them if you can. I can't tell you how many women in my life opened up to me about their own losses when they found out about mine and hearing their stories and seeing how far they'd come really did help. I am also here if you ever want to talk... I've found that no one else can understand like someone who has been there. If you are unable to open up to those around you, there is a good support group I found on facebook that really helped me keep my sanity. They have a group for loss, one for ttc after a loss, & one for pregnancy after a loss. I've been a member of all three and there's not been a more supportive place to be when I needed it. They're completely private, so none of your fb friends will see your posts or even know you're a member. I wish you peace and love and hope this new year brings you better things, darlin'

Do you have an appt yet? How early can they tell if it's twins?
Congrats

I hope the spotting isn't anything to worry about.
I haven't told many people. Just close friends and family. The only reason I told my supervisor is because I have to lift my residents and the lifting takes a lot out of me, so I asked for a lighter assignment until I'm cleared by the doctor.

I have had 2 ultrasounds and ob says everything looks great. He doesn't seem concerned but it still freaks me out. It seems to be tapering off hopefully. He gave me my next appointment date 1/23 and told me if I thought I needed to be seen before then to call. I just want it to stop.

I have told people at work already --- mainly because I have a really physical job and my doctor would like me to not overexert myself and ask for help w/heavy lifting. Everyone was really supportive and they have no problem helping when I ask for it b/c they were all really upset when I lost in the fall.

But, before I spilled the beans, a couple of the other nurses kept teasing me about "looking pregnant" ---- they'd say I had this glow. And every time I complained about heartburn, they'd jump in with, "Uh oh... you're probably pregnant!" I felt like such a liar keeping it from them, so I feel better that I told lol

Are you also a CNA? Do you find yourself worrying about pushing yourself too far with work?

I don't have anyone telling me that I have that "glow" anymore.... lol.

For the past couple weeks, my face has broken out in weird red, dry, itchy patches... acne.... and hives! My hair is greasy ALL the time. And I've got hives on my neck, boobs, & torso (thankfully, no one can see those!). I feel like a hot, itchy mess   Have you seen "What to expect when you're expecting?" I feel like Elizabeth Banks' character lol

Thank you. I hatd being so far from my family but my aunt answer at 5 her time to talk.. then my dad called me right back. So i feel slightly better. Knowing that it wasnt too bad and i still have another channce is good thought right now. Its my husband who does know. With his ex wife they suffered only 1 miscarriage... and now she has a kid with her current husband. And then we had one.. and i have dd from a previous relationship. Could he possibly be the problem?

It does sound suspect when you add all of those things together. I would encourage him to seek out a male fertility specialist (his regular doctor could refer him) if he's concerned about it. It could just be an awful coincidence, but knowing for sure will be the best thing so that you can find out options for having children together. I wish you both strength during these first few days... make sure you give each other lots of love right now.

Thank you.

My appt is Jan. 8th!!!! I can't wait, I know I have to met with a nurse, have an exam from the dr and get bloodwork but not sure about a u/s. I'm thinking my dr will most likely do one that day though since I'm unsure of my date.
They would be able to tell if a person is having twins from the first u/s!

So sorry to hear that! Good luck in the future though!

I'm unsure for a similar reason, I've been nursing my youngest and I hadn't had a period until October and it's hard to judge how long my cycles were, when I ovulated, etc. My doctor told me though this is likely the earliest due date based on my ultrasound and also the most likely too. I also talked to my midwife and she said to go with the 25th but if it changes keep all possible due dates in mind and take note of them as time goes on kinda thing.

Also , I know what ovary I o'd from because I only have one ovary lol.
