that's such great news to hear.

Thanks!
 

Thanks for all your support everybody! I have been way sick lately, but I am so grateful that everything's okay that I'm trying to stay positive and remember my blessings. I got something similiar to "sea bands" today. I am wearing them, and my wrists aren't too happy, but my stomach is doing a little better, and I am hopefuly that they might be helping. I hope so, because we're flying to California Wednesday morning and I want to be able to enjoy my trip if possible! Love ya, see you later! :)

Hi Sara
Before I read yoiu had a heartbeat I was going to say that usually there is alot of cramping and bleeding when yoiu miscarry even at 7 weeks. I miscarried then.
I would suggest to stay away from alcohol as I am still wondering if it was those couple of drinks the night I miscarried that did it.
All the best

Hi Ocean Girl~ A couple of drinks of alcohol will not cause a miscarriage. It is nothing you did or did not do. Nutrition, exercise, drugs...none of these have been shown to cause miscarriages (except for meds that are prescribed to end pregnancies). Embryos stick or they don't and we don't know why they don't stick so often except that the most likely reason is the genetics of that particular pregnancy. It is really important that women know they are not to blame for miscarriages.

Oh so happy! I can tell you of me an my hubbys journey to parenthood. I had my first daughter w/ no prob. and then for our second we tried so hard for 3 years and then it happened a baby!! I was on top of the world then I miscarried at three months even after progestorone therapy. I was mortified. 6mos later I found out I was indeed pregnant again. then My levels started to drop and I started to bleed. went back on progestrone. For some reason it worked. I delivered Kaylee june 27th of 2003. I know the feeling when you see that little heartbeat and you were expecting the worst. I def think you have very positive things happening. I aslo bled with my third baby and didn't do progestrone and had her aug. 22nd of 2005. hope that helps a bit. fel free to pm me anytime.

Thanks for the continued support. :) I have been gone since Tuesday, as we had a trip planned to Disneyland for this last week (before we figured we'd get lucky with our trying-to-get-pregnant). It was a fun trip, but I was fairly sick during much of it, especially Friday. I am at work right now and just hanging in there until I can go home and eat lunch and rest for 20-30 minutes. Laying down is one of the only positions I am not sick in (all day, though mid-mornings are the worst). This too shall pass. :) It is just hard being back at work.

Not really here nor there, but October babies tend to be incredibly cute. ;)

I went in for my first appointment and the vaginal u/s couldn't find a heartbeat, but the doctor said it could be too early. But I think he was worried, cause he ordered two blood tests 48 hours apart to check my Hcg levels. And they went up, but nowhere near doubled. A week ago I had some spotting (from my period I should be 6.5 wks along) So he wants me to come back in Thursday and they're going to check for a heartbeat again, and if there isn't one, he said I'll probably miscarry. But from what I've read, the not-so-exponential Hcg numbers already spell disaster. I spent much of Friday and Saturday crying, and have worked through most of the emotional trauma, but it's so hard still feeling so sick and knowing it's probably for nothing. I have had some light brownish pink discharge, but just a tiny bit Sat night and Sun morning. It's okay if I miscarry (though we really want this baby and it is our first), but it's hard waiting and not knowing - I can't imagine a positive outcome with those Hcg numbers (only went from 5000 something to 6000 something I think he said) and I'm not sure how to think or feel. I could really use some moral support. :(

First am sorry to hear about the not knowing… but am happy for you now just keep faith everything will go well. It really touch because I had a miscarriage in December of 09. I spend 3 days crying nonstop but now am happy then ever am 13 week pregnant now and everything is in good condition thanks God for that.. Well enjoy being pregnant my friend

Congratulations!!!!

Congrats!! Just remember everything you went thru is worth it in the end

Just wanna jump in here and say that this thread is 4 years old. :)

That's great news! I had some pretty substantial bleeding at 7 weeks and now everything is fine. So, there is always hope! I'm glad everything is working out.

CRAZY! I just saw how old this thread is.
