I got preggers with Daniel unexpected. When we started trying again I got preggers really easy but I had an ectopic. I had to wait 6 months before we were allowed to try again as I was given drugs to expel the ectopic rather than going down the surgery route. Once we were allowed to try again I got preggers and had a natural miscarriage. The following month I got preggers yet again and had Jared at 22w gest as he had spina bifida.
To be honest with each of them I've had a gut feeling. With Daniel I knew it was gonna be fine. With the ectopic I was the one pushing the doc for a scan cause I knew it was more than a simple miscarriage about to happen but he didn't believe me. I knew I was going to miscarry the next time from the time I got the bfp. With Jared I knew I wouldn't miscarry in my gut but when it came time for the 20w scan I wasnt at all excited about it. I didnt really even want to go to it.
We are ttc again, I'm scared sh*tless about it because of the spina bifida thing and morning sickness |
i can understand how scared you are and thought I would share my friends story. She went into prem labour with her first baby, a girl at 28 weeks and her little girl was still born. They did a post mortem and could never tell her what caused the stillbirth.
She got pregnant again and they found out it was twins when she was miscarrying one of them at 6 weeks. At her 20 week scan she found out her baby had Spina bifida, she chose to go through with the pregnancy and her son is now 7.
She got pregnant a year after having her son and had a molar pregnancy at 7 weeks I think it was.
She is now 22 weeks pregnant but this pregnancy has not been easy on her as you can imagine. Getting to 12 weeks was her first hurdle, she was on 5mg of folic acid for the first 13 weeks. then she had the spinabifida and downs blood tests at 16 weeks but for some reason they didnt do the SB one so had to wait another week for results. Luckily the chance was slim and since then she has had 2 scans showing a healthy active boy and she feels she can now relax a bit but wont feel totally relaxed till she holds her boy in her arms.
I have my fingers crossed that all of you who have had a mc can go on to have healthy happy bubbas
