Hi,
I'm new to this forum.
In april I found out that I was pregnant (5weeks). Both myself and OH were shocked but very pleased as we had not planned to start trying. I confirmed the pregnancy with several home kits before taking a trip to the doctor. I couldn't get an appointment with the midwive for aleast another week. the only symptoms I had were, missed period, sore/tender breasts, and the odd twinge in my abdomen....no morning sickness at all! Within a week I started to get small cramps but I thought this was normal. Then a couple of days later I started to spot. I thought the worst but tried to get myself to believe it was implantation bleeding. Over night it got worse so I went to see the doctor first thing to be told there was no appointments! Almost in tears I told the women behind the desk my situation...was seen to straight away. he told me just to go home and see waht happens as he didn't want to put me through any unnecessary trips to the hospital. At the time I thought that was pretty harsh but later I had to agree that I prefered the comfort of my own home and support from my OH to that of a hospital. The miscarriage completed by itself so I didn't need any further examinations. went to see the midwive the next day and introduce myself. She was fantastic and listened to my story and advised waiting another month until after my next period.
After this miscarriage we both decided that we would try again.
Yesterday I took a test which was positive. I went through all the emotions, happiness, sadness, anxiety and disbelief that I had concieved so quickly. I really don't want it to happen again and would love this one to be a normal pregnancy. Again I only have sore breasts and missed period with the odd twinge in my abdomen. Like the first I haven't had any MS and know that this could be a sign of a future MC. The doctor said i have plenty of time still to get it.
I am really scared it will happen again.
Bye for now and thanks for reading this.
