Due Date Club for Lil' March Hares, April Bunnies & May Pikas

I have some bad news. I started spotting this morning. Red blood. I took a pregnancy test a couple hours ago. It's still positive. Light second line but it could be bc my pee was so diluted. Has this happened to anyone else?

I had quite a lot of a bleed with my first, think I was about 6 weeks. Phoned docs and they got me an early scan very quickly. I was so sure it was all over. Luckily all was well and they could see the area the bleed had come from. Have you had any pain or cramps?

I'm out. Digital was negative this afternoon. The bleeding is also really heavy now.

Tiggerian - can you take me off the dd list? Thanks.

I'm so sorry to hear this Sunflower. Thoughts are with you.

:( So sorry Sunflower xxx

I'm so very very sorry Sunflower! :broken:
After my loss was confirmed I took Red Raspberry Leaf capsules and Vitex.
The RRL strengthened my uterus, and the vitex helped me conceive again before my next cycle.
I know it's so very hard, and it's certainly not fair.
I'll send prayers your way sweet lady! :HH:

So sorry to hear about your loss sunflower xx

Well, we saw the genetisist today and he's not sure at all where we stand. He's never heard of the heterotaxy causing the brain problems, so either they are two separate issues, or they are linked but its a syndrome not seen before.

Our next step is for them to see if there's any tissue samples still left from the post mortem then they can do mapping on. This will tell us:

1, if it was a one off genetic issue that was a dominant gene which would just have just come up in Evelyn. if so, the reoccurrence rate would be around 5%. We'll then just have to have regular scans to check the brain and organs.
2, its two recessive genes from both hubby and I which have come together. If so, we have a 25% chance of it happening again - and we have been lucky that it hasn't happened before. They then need to test hubby and I, and I will need a CVS to see if baby has it.

So now we have to wait 2 weeks - 3 months for them to test any DNA they may have left over. I'm hoping its sooner rather than later.

But, now feeling more down about this pregnancy and worried we'll have to go through the whole heartache again.
