Good And Bad News
Posted: 10-13-03 16:12pm

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

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!

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!!

Hilary
