I just wanted to say thanks to everyone
who helped me. I took a test last tuesday
morning and it was positive. I went to my
doctor on wednesday and she confirmed the
pregnancy. She said that the bleeding was
caused by a threatened miscarriage and
that I need to be very careful the next 3
months or so and that I need to stay in
bed for the remainder of this week. The
bleeding has been stopped for 3 days but I
am so worried that I won't be able to
carry it to term. Has anyone ever had
this happen to them? Is there anything I
can do to prevent a miscarriage? My
boyfriend and I are so worried about
losing this baby.My next appointment is on
friday morning unless something happens
before then. Any advice would be helpful!
Thanks,
hilary

Hey Hilary Posted: 10-13-03 16:50pm
Hey hilary,
u poor thing. The first three months r
said to b an uncertain time in every
pregnancy cos it's the time when ur body
will see if it can cope with the
pregnancy.
I have no experience of this, there r
girls on here who do and will get back to
u but my aunt had one and I know it's very
important to look after yourself, get lots
of rest, regular check ups and dont do
anything strenous. The main thing is to
not stress yourself out-this isnt good for
anyones body especially not a pregnant
body.
Unfortunately, there's nothing u can
really do to stop it from happening-it's
just natures way but if u look after
yourself, please god eveything goes ok.
I'll think of u on fri-my friends having
an abortion that day. I wish she wanted
her baby as much as u want urs.
Pm me when u've had ur appointment.
Hope i've helped in some way,
good luck & loadsa love,
liz x
Oh sweetie, I am so sorry about this!
Like liz said there is nothing you can do
to prevent a miscarriage from taking
place! On the upside the bleeding has
stopped so there is a good chance that
your baby is just fine! My prayers are
with you!
If you get sometime I would like it if you
would keep me posted! I hope that
everything goes well!!
Much love

Hey everyone, thanks for the
encouragement. So far so good! I go to
the doctors office tomorrow, but I haven't
had any bleeding, cycle cramps or
anything. I am having a mild tingling in
my abdomen which I read was a sign of the
uterus stretching? I am not worried
because it doesn't hurt and I am not
bleeding, am I ok not to be worried?? I
am 7 weeks according to my doc, he said
that he will give me an edd at my
appointment tomorrow! Do you think I will
hear a heartbeat then?? I know if I heard
it, I would feel so much better! Let me
know what you think and thanks again for
everything!!
