Need prayer and support mamas

[mamatowill]

I was at the hospital last night ladies due to unusual spotting. They did a pelvic exam and my cervix is closed, an ultrasoud picked up a heartbeat and my hcg levels are exactly where they need to be. The only problem is my progesterone levels- they are low. Iknow this can indicate a threatened miscarriage. Please send lots of sticky prayers and any support stories please. I don't want to hear any negative stories- have enough in my head already from my research. Thanks!

I had tons of horrible bleeding at 11 weeks with my first and he was just fine. Turned out to be a cyst bursting on my ovary. It was scary, I'll tell you that but everything was just fine thank goodness!

Sending lots of positive thoughts your way Mama. :thumb

I went for an us today. They found out that I have a sub-chorionic bleed which is why I am spotting. They still consider the pregnancy viable. From my research the bleeding does not indicate the pregnancy is ending. The worrisome thing though is that the babies heartbeat is 80 bpm which considered weak. From my research this means that I am most likely going to miscarry because there is something wrong with the baby. Keep those sticky vibes coming ladies.

How are you doing? I had a sub-chorionic hemorrhage with my last pregnancy. I bled until the 12th week, but all turned out well in the end. That little bean is about to turn 1 and is currently snuggled up next to me attached to my breast. Don't give up hope!

[mamatowill]

Well I admit that I have been avoiding the board. Noone is concerned about the subchorionic bleed- it is the heartbeat that has everyone concerned. My dr says she thinks that we got the u/s too early and that the heart was just getting going. She told me that she had two other women with the same heartbeat at the same time in the last 6 months and they were fine. I am still hoping.

I am still scared that something is going to happen. My DH is in the Middle East and can't be here. I have a 2.5 year old who is not getting the attention he is used to. Also all of my supports have their own lives and can't always be there when I am :dizzy: I am really nervous and I thought I could do it alone but now I don't know. I am just really scared that I am going to lose the baby. I still have pregnancy symptoms which I think is good. I am still bleeding but it is getting lighter brown in colour. I have pains every so often usually from gas or when I am thinking about it. Keep the sticky vibes coming- I am going for another u/s this week.

Sorry for the length- I just needed to get this off my chest since people in IRL don't want to hear it from me anymore. Thanks.

I had the same thing when I was 8 weeks, my bleed was just as big as the baby and sac, it never came out(the blood that it)it is still in there as far as I know, or my body absorbed it. All I have to say is Iam now going on 16 weeks and things are fine. I havent had another us, I saw my baby I knew there was one in there and I just keep thinking to myself even today my body knows what to do and my baby knows what to do. I know those thoughts are hard to put out of your mind, talk to you little one tell him to stick in there and surroung yourself with love.

Love, and prayers to you mama:hug

Thinking of you...

[mamatowill]

Thanks everyone. I acutally ended up with the stomach flu yesterday. That was loads of fun. The bleeding stopped for the entire time that I was sick but started back up again once I was not.:lol I still feel pregnant the problem is that there is a lot of stress at work. I am having a hard time with it. I am trying to go by the philosophy that the worst that they could do is fire me. Hopefully everyhting is still ok. I go on Thursday for the u/s and I am taking a friend since I can't face it alone.

[sebarnes]

:hugs, and lots of luck for your ultrasound!

[MCatLvrMom2A&X]

Low progesterone can be fixed using either prescription progesterone or you can use a cream you can get at the health food store or wal mart to make your levels go up. I went on them for low progest with my last pg. It was only 8.9 at 25dpo should have been well over 15. Ds just turned 2yo last week.

[mommamin]

I hope everything goes well on Thursday! Thinking of you! :hug

Sending lots of prayers your way! I'll be thinking about you tomorrow!

[mamatowill]

I had the u/s and the heartbeat was there and it looked like the baby had grown to my untrained eye. The tech stated that the heartbeat was still slow as to how much I don't know. I have an appointment with my dr tomorrow. I am trying to keep positive about this. I think it is good that there is still a heartbeat. Keep those thoughts and prayers going. This seems like it is going to be a long drawn out process.

[saratchka]

Ugh! I'm sorry to hear that the results weren't more conclusively positive. Still keeping my fingers crossed for you! :sticky

[txbikegrrl]

Sending you more hugs and positive thoughts to keep your spirits up during this difficult but hopeful time. I'm so glad to hear about the heartbeat. Keep us posted if you can...

[momof2girls1boy]

i will say a prayer for you tonight,think positive mama i'm sure everything will be ok!!:Hug

Sending postitive thoughts your way!!!:sticky :sticky :sticky

[mamatowill]

Well I have seen the dr and she has prepared me for miscarriage. The heartbeat is still too slow and the baby has grown but not enough. The baby is about two weeks behind in growth. While I cannot give up until the baby does there is very little possiblity that the pregnancy will go through. All of these things indicate a chromosomal problem with the baby. I have to say though that it is stubborn and put up a good fight. I am getting prepared. There has been something "off" since I found out I was pregnant. I am going to bow out of the due date club now. Maybe I will reappear if there is a miracle. Thank you for all of your support ladies. Good luck with your pregnancies.
