    Of course it is hon....but please don't be worrying about stuff like this right now.

    Just take things easy over the next few days (well as easy as you can with three children!) and wait for your scan.

    I've had bleeding with previous pregnanices, one time it was bad news, and one time it wasn't. There is no telling, but to be worrying about stuff that's not even happened for definite is just going to do your head in.


    Very true indeed :)

    I just didn't expect to be told this today to be honest.

    Thanks for the update Dippychick, you've been in my thoughts all day.

    I know it's easy to say but try and be positive. I'm sure your children will keep you occupied while you wait for scan. There's plenty of support here if you need it.

    Take Care

    Hi Dippchick - not had a chance to catch up sooner (couldn't find the thread earlier and then had to go out).

    Sorry to hear that it wasn't all cut and dried today, sometimes it would be better to know either way. Do hope that you will be okay, and that it will all turn out to be okay at the next scan.

    I have never known anyone who agreed the dates with the scan at the earliest scans! Both of mine were "different" to the dates I thought I had. It's something to do with which stage o the month one actually gets pregnant I believe.

    I will cross everything for you - please let us know what happens, and as you said, you can try again. I was 35 when I had my two miscarriages, AND childless - so I admit I was petrified that it meant I could not have kids - but I eventually got my 2 (now why does that sometimes seem unfortunate:rotfl: ).

    Take care.

    I knew what had happened, ironic i was at the gp's just had my pregnancy confirmed when the pain shot through me which i knew was wrong, the doctor just looked at me and said well come on now you've had a baby you know the aches and pains you get.

    by the time i was finally allowed a scan, all there was left was a sac.

    They believed it was possibly a blighted ovum
    I think thats what they said, its the pregnancy that should never happen and a risk it may have been cancerous.

    This was 10 years ago and i hope my gp's have learnt to have more diplomacy than what they did have.
    Life is about give and take, if you can't give why should you take?

    Moggylover that's fantastic, I am so glad you got your children in the end :)

    I have taken it for granted that I have always been able to conceive easily without any question of whether it would happen or not :o

    Ho are you feeling today? Has the bleeding calmed at all?

    And more to the point- have you got your feet up?! You need to\be giving yourself some tlc.

    How awful :mad:

    It's funny, thinking back when the Dr checked my tummy last week he would have noticed that my tummy did not feel like it should for someone who is supposedly 10 weeks pregnant, I noticed that myself and wondered why it wasn't hard.

    Am feeling much better today anyways, my husband woke up in the night a bit upset about it which surprised me as all he was doing all day was agreeing with everything I said!

    Me: It could still be a baby couldn't it?
    Him: Yes it could all be fine, could be you conceived later than you thought Wife

    Me: Its dead isn't it?
    Him: Looks like it


    This was the conversation on and off all day and in the end I just said to him, why the fcuck are you agreeing with everything I say?

    That's what he's like though. He doesn't mean any harm. Typical man I think - telling me whatever he thinks I want hear.
    :cool:
