MSE Pregnancy Club IV

Redmel, sounds like what I had with DS2 (have I mentioned that that was a horrid pregnancy much as I love him?). Also got cramps that felt like they were in my bump but weren't quite.

A hot water bottle positioned on your pubic bone helps (but not on bump). Keep your legs together when you can :rotfl:

The physio will give you some excercises that do actually help and you have to learn to walk without sticking your bump out! Clench your pelvic muscles and tilt your pelvis forward so that the curve in the small of your back is less, your bump should rise up but not out... IYSWIM.... your butt should not stick out either.

The longer you walk without doing this the worse it will get, you do really have to see a physio.

I haven't been able to dismount from a horse properly since DS2 arrived it takes a while to settle back down.

I don't think anyone on here has, or at least they haven't mentioned it as far as I know in the 4 mths I've been here.
why do you ask? maybe we can help you find what u are looking for

My levels are ridiculously high and rising rapidly, everything i find just talks about molar pregnancy. I'm desperatey trying to find someone who's been in a similar situation with positive outcome but nothing so far...

To top it off i'm cramping so bad this past hour. I'm terrified of another loss. I just called DH and told him how scared i am and he said or did nothing to help whatsoever. Of course now im crying my eyes out. I'd call the EPU but it's too early to even see anything yet and the not knowing is driving me insane

EDIT My apologies myaccount, I posted this without doing a catch up on what was happening in the thread, I haven't heard anything about beta levels, even though its too early to see anything at the EPU could you call them and have a conversation about your worries on the beta levels? They may be able to offer some explanation/reassurance.

Cramping in early pregnancy is not unusual but I imagine is very scary if you are already worried.

Ring the EPU and see what advice they have.

Sorry not had time to catch up. Just wondering if any of you had hCG beta's in early pregnancy??

Sorry not sure about this but could it be showing higher than normal if there is a multiple pregnancy?
Might be worth calling your MW on monday if nothing else to put your mind at ease

Sami_Bee

Myaccount, did they explain your levels when you were given the results? I'm just thinking maybe there is a chance you're worrying over nothing, I'm afraid the only advice seems to be contact EPU for advice.
I really hope that nothing is wrong, i wish I could do more to help! xx

Myaccount, any chance your dates are wrong or it could be multiple as they are both other possibilites according to this:
What can a high hCG level mean?

A high level of hCG can also mean a number of things and should be rechecked within 48-72 hours to evaluate changes in the level. A high hCG level can indicate:

• Miscalculation of pregnancy dating
• Molar pregnancy
• Multiple pregnancy

Re baby surnames...we put ds1 into dads name straightaway as I knew we would get married eventually. When I fell pregnant with ds2 we already had a holiday booked for Cyprus when I would be 7mths pregnant, so we decided to get married whilst we were out there. It was fantastic and as cost very little for the wedding I think it was £150 we arranged it ourselves, as our hotel didn't do a wedding package, and I didn't want to change hotels. My wedding dress was a prom dress from dorothy perkins, cost about £50 (can't remember exactly) I had to get 2/3 sizes bigger for my bump and had it taken in at the top as it was strapless and would have fallen down:eek:

That sounds like my kind of wedding!! If we ever do it, I think it'll be a case of 'we're on holiday, we might aswell!' - Doesn't sound very romantic when I put it like that!!
