Bunny: im sorry..

[I Love Ladybugs]

Bunnywabbit.... ((((hugs))) I too know the pain of early losses (6,5,5,8 weeks) and remember the toughest feeling that you will never be a mom. You will be...you will hold your rainbow baby...I have to believe that for you!!

Charlee..I think you one of the strongest women around here...and I don't mean in terms of lifting weights. Your emotional fortitude and lovely outlook has me in awe of you. Your family continues to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Meeks.....congrats!! I had tried posting last night, but my computer had a mind of its own. How did your hubby respond? Stalking you and your 20 week appt for sure!

Myrainbowgirl....we have had a lot of rain here lately and I have been watching for rainbows....not one. You must have all of them right now!! Did you check out that item I found on Ebay for you?

Happypixi....are you planning on nubcessing? Lol, your baby is going to be cute either gender, love your profile pic!!!!!

AFM...had my MD appt yesterday and feeling a little unsettled. She did downplay most of the issues, and I don't know if she was doing it out of the fact that the specialist tend to accentuate it. I know that she had a phone call with the one doctor I saw down in Vancouver and only can hope that all is well with my little girl. She is such a fighter, loves to kick inside....I bet early on with my hubby in this pregnancy that this baby was most like my oldest in terms of looks and personality...only 15 more weeks to see who is closer on their guess of what the baby looks like.

Which brings me to my sillier question of the week? What did you think that your new baby would be like ie. looks, attitude, etc?

My next scan is the anatomy scan too, and on 24th! Glad we get to confirm at a second scan! Terrified someone will tell me there was a mistake!!!

I am sure there is no mistake but how lovely to get all those paranoia squashing scans!

[Emily]

Bunnywabbit so sorry you are going through this. It does sound like a miscarriage to me. Am so sorry. Hopefully your doc will be able o tell you for sure as many women have had bleeding and been OK. i don't want to get your hopes up just to give you a bug cyber hug and say i know how you feel and it might still be OK.

Soooo, I'm not crying this time! I didn't see anything obviously boy, I did see something parallel and forked but I know there's no guarantees at this stage.
Don't think my print outs show an obvious nub, but here is my baba!

Pixi, not great with nubs but cute little baby

[Charlee]

Pixi - I think you have a VERY good chance at hearing girl!!! VERY. So excited to see what the next scan brings Congrats on a healthy baby, obviously the MOST important thing...

Awww well thanks Ladybug. That really means a lot to me. I think anyone would do the same given the circumstances though, and I'm just glad that most of you haven't had those circumstances! You are no different than me though, my dear... we have both been through so much to have these crazy beautiful boys and you are continuing to be a pillar of strength throughout this pregnancy. I can't wait to see pics of your amazing little Ladybug!

Just to clarify, a loss is a loss no matter when. It hurts, it's crushing. I was just pointing out my 32 week loss because it was the turning point for me, the moment when I wasn't sure I would EVER have children.... and the moment I decided I wouldn't quit until I got answers and had a baby REGARDLESS. So I wanted to pass on that resolve to bunny and anyone else struggling. Don't listen to the "odds", listen to your heart and keep the faith that it will happen. A little bit of positive thinking goes a long way.

Thanks girls, not holding out much hopes as passing a lot of clots this morning. Off to the doctors in a minute. Thinking I'm not too bad, at least it happened early rather than after scan. DH is taking it worse than me - very snappy last night and spent a lot of time alone. Would it sound crazy if I said that was one of the better nights sleep I've had in quite a while?

@charlee, I'm so sorry! 32 week loss must be horrific. I'm not sure how I'd recover after that... x

I'm so sorry, I had 4 early losses like that, and once I saw clots I always knew it was over. I really hope you get pg again quickly because that seemed to help me. It sways pink too, not that that's any consolation when you lost a dream.

Charlee I didn't remember that you had such a late loss! I knew you had lost babies but not the details. Or maybe I did and pregnancy brain has set in. Either way, that's truly horrible and I'm so sorry. You have handled your emotions amazingly through the car accident and this recent scare, and given that loss I am just in awe of your strength. xxx
