My midwife did refer me to a hematologist to check for clotting disorders after the second hemmorage but she wasn't able to find anything. She told me though that two hemmorages were likely a coincidence and she would only check for the 2-3 most common blood problems, as there was no point checking for rare disorders. I'm considering doing one of those DNA tests from ancestry.com because you can download your raw data and check for a wide range of genetic conditions. Maybe that would reveal something the hemotologist didn't check for and provide me with more answers.

I don't know if 3 would be considered a coincidence, maybe they will refer you back ?
I was having Miscarriages every pregnancy, and then they discovered I have inherited a blood disorder from my Dad.
He didn't know he has it, so of course I didn't.
It is usually only picked up because of recurrent miscarriages, or Pulmonary embolisms.
Now that I am on the medication, this pregnancy has made it to 16 weeks.
Praying they find a reason for you, as it is not fair at all

Had my first midwives appt today. Heard bubs heartbeat for the first time since my scan at 10 weeks, was lovely. Although I couldn't really feel much, Bub was kicking away as you could hear it on the monitor lol. Been feeling a few little kicks here and there for the last 3 days, even saw my tummy jump lol. Finally starting to feel real now! Morphology scan booked for Tuesday

Does any of you pregant ladies suffer from cystitis? I already had it two times and have now been prescribed antibiotics for the second time within 3 weeks. I hope this time it will go away. I will try to drink more water and cranberry juice to see if this can also prevent it from coming back.

Cystitis and i are old friends. Thankfully since i had a kidney stone extraction and they 'opened up' my urethra in order to go in and remove the stone i have had 90% less problems with it. Sex is going to be a huge trigger for you most likely. Heavily chlorinated pools and hot tubs, bath bombs, sex...all of those were god awful to me for lots of years. I feel your pain. my only advice is if it becomes very recurrent with you seek out help in urology..they can stretch the urethra with rods...sounds unpleasant so i never did it but then when i had the kidney stone removed they basically had to do it in a way anyhow and since thats what gave me the relief id do the rods now if i could go back

Hi Bukaroam. Thanks for your reply. Luckily I don't have any pain or symptoms related to cystitis, so guess mine is just a very tiny infection. I heard it is very common to get it when pregnant. That's why I asked in this forum to know how the experiences are. I will start antobiotocs tomorrow. Hopefully this will make it go away.

Just checking in ladies ! I haven't posted since early December when I got my bfp. We should find out gender on February 4th!
So far this pregnancy is different than my girls .
I'm getting heartburn already with them I didn't get it until the end.
Just nauseous sometimes but haven't thrown up . With them I was so sick very early . I will be 8 weeks Monday .
Eating takes the nausea away . With the girls I couldn't eat anything .
I'm craving chicken sandwiches and french fries lol.
I am so tired I could sleep all day . Besides being sick with the girls I had way more energy than this .
I'm breaking out everywhere .. back, neck, face , ew. I didn't have this with my girls .
Hoping these are all good signs !
I tried testing Ramzi theory when we had our 6 week scan but unfortunately baby and yolk sac were all at the top dead center . The tech couldn't really determine a side . Although she said maybe slightly right

So sorry for you loss, Erin. Sending healing thoughts.

I just wanted to jump in and say I got a BFP yesterday after my MC @9 weeks in November. I won't make it back in this group, if it sticks it will be a Sept baby. Fingers crossed.

Oh how lovely, some good news for you

[MrsSparkles]

Put on a jumpsuit today (less 80's tastic than it sounds), and my DH said "Woah you look pregnant!"
So finally I have a bump, I have started to see it a bit more these last few days.

Still have no symptoms, apart from eating limes raw, and craving lime pickle.

Also getting excited about having a little boy now, have bought loads of cute stuff in the sales.
Held my cousins 5 month old daughter today, and didn't feel like throwing her into my handbag and stealing her...so that's good

Just wondering if I can join in ladies? I'm almost 12 weeks pregnant with our rainbow baby, we have 5 little boys and lost baby boy #6 at 18 weeks in August. Absolutely terrified but we've had 2 scans and hospital visits start tomorrow so it's starting to feel a little bit real.

We did have the Percept (Australian) NIPT done week 10 but there wasn't enough fetal DNA in the sample so redraw is in a week. This pregnancy has been completely different to my others, I'm trying to not let my hopes go up too much but maybe this is our girl? But a healthy baby of either sex will do us just fine!
