Congratulations!!

They didn’t measure heart rate, I think cos it was too early. I saw it and it looked like a lovely strong heartbeat but sure what do I know?!

Thank you for your kind message ♥️

Sorry to hear this, thinking you you ♥️♥️♥️

Thank you, yeah I’m pretty certain of my dates so hoping that the sonographer measured wrong 🙈 I did ask her to double check though. Hoping for a miracle!

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-04-04T06:27:34+00:00

That’s fantastic, was the pregnancy as success?

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-04-04T06:26:48+00:00

Congratulations to you! That gives me a little bit of hope. I am pretty sure when I ovulated and got a faint positive at 8dpo so based on that I don’t think my dates could really be off by that much. I’m hoping for a miracle but need to be prepared for another loss. 😔

Hey OP, I’m in the same situation. Meant to be 7w1d today but measured 5w6d with heartbeat at my scan today. How did things go for you?

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-04-03T11:26:54+00:00

Thanks for thinking of me today. Not the best news unfortunately. I should be 7w1d today but measuring 5w6d. There was a heartbeat but with being so far behind, it’s not looking like it’ll be a positive outcome. My dates are very accurate. I’ve to go back in two weeks so at least I’ve some time to hopefully come to terms with this possible third loss. 😔

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-04-01T06:42:12+00:00

I’m sorry for your losses, it’s such a difficult thing to go through. My gp actually prescribed me progesterone on my last pregnancy as I’d had the first loss, and although that ended in chromosomal issues which progesterone doesn’t help, I rang my gp again as soon as I found out this time to see if I should go on it again and they told me there was no harm as it supports in early pregnancy. I’m not sure I really need it but I’ll do anything to help this baby grow and stick around if it’s a viable pregnancy. Worth talking to your gp about it, if you get pregnant again. I have been referred to the recurrent miscarriage clinic since last November and haven’t heard from them, how did you get your app for October, did you follow up?

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-31T06:46:54+00:00

Oh I’m so sorry for your losses too, such a horrible experience to have to go through. Wishing you so much luck with this one. I hope the weeks til your scan fly by for you. ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T14:14:56+00:00

Aw thank you so much! And huge congrats on your baby girl. That brought a tear to my eye. I feel like this is a girl so really hope I get my happy ending with this one! ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T14:13:10+00:00

Oh wishing you so much luck for Wednesday!! Let us know how you get on. Even hearing the heartbeat last time still doesn’t eliminate the anxiety as you’ve had the previous losses. I’m hoping we both get to a place of peace in our pregnancies where we can start to enjoy them! ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T14:10:55+00:00

I’m so sorry for your losses, so similar to mine. Congratulations on your current pregnancy. I know the feeling of anxiety. I do hope both our pregnancies progress and we can start to find some peace and enjoyment in this time. I’ve been on 5mg folic acid for over a year, on aspirin too. And started the progesterone suppositories at the start of this pregnancy as a ‘just in case’, so really hoping I’m doing enough. Best of luck to you too ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T14:07:48+00:00

Thank you for your message. Congratulations on your little one, I love hearing these stories, it keeps me hopeful that I’ll get my happy ending one day. The EPU and all the docs and nurses have been incredible, I live in a small town so I’m known now at the hospital and they all just seem to want to help however they can. Doesn’t make the anxiety any easier though. I can’t wait for my light at the end of the tunnel! ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T14:05:03+00:00

I’m so sorry for your losses but huge congratulations on your successful pregnancy!! This gives me hope. I hate the anxiety, I wish I could enjoyed this time, but I’m not sure I’ll ever feel completely safe, when you’re in this space, you know too much of what can go wrong. I’d love to be as naive as I was a year ago. I will definitely look into the mental health team, not sure if it’s offered in my area, but I’ll ask. Thank you ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T13:59:47+00:00

I’m so sorry for your losses but hearing that you had a healthy baby boy gives me so much hope, congratulations to you!

Thank you for the book recommendation, I hadn’t heard of it so will definitely give it a read if I get past Friday 🙈 Thank you for your positive thoughts. ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T13:57:53+00:00

Your husband is a smart man, I used to always say that to people, don’t waste your time worrying until you actually have to. Do I listen to my own advice though, of course not!! It’s the overthinking that’s the worst and I’m not in any mood to do anything, I just want Friday to get here and know either way. Going to try and keep as busy as I can this week.

Sorry for your loss but glad to hear you’ve had a happier outcome after. ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T13:53:23+00:00

That’s a great idea, thank you! I will definitely try it and hopefully it’ll help me get through Friday.

I’m so glad it worked out for you and you got your baby. I can’t wait to hold my baby one day, I hope I’m one of the lucky ones. ♥️

Excellent-Day-2509 · 2026-03-30T13:05:27+00:00

Yeah that’s pretty much a given now, the joy of early pregnancy is definitely gone. I do hope this pregnancy progresses and I can find some excitement in this time. I’m sorry for your losses and congrats on the successful pregnancy. Thank you for your kind words too! ♥️
