6wks + 4 (Bleed at 4 weeks) with viability scan this Thursday...Can anyone relate? 🤦🏻‍♀️

[Mrs14]

Hello All,

I’m 6 wks + 3 with my “viability” scan planned for this Thursday! I feel sick with worry as I had a small bleed / brown discharge (sorry for TMI) at 4 weeks and ever since I can’t help but think things have failed and it’s just the meds masking any further bleeding 😫 ... Can anyone else relate to this that had a positive outcome at the scan?! Most would probably look forward to the scan but I’m absolutely dreading! 😔 I’ve also asked for an abdominal scan, not internal after my MMC at 8 + 6 weeks in my first round. It may be superstitious but I just don’t want anything going “up there” lol 🤦🏻‍♀️ ... Would really appreciate any positivity / words of advice 💞 xx

Hi lovely, I didn't have any bleeding but can definitely relate to the scan dread and worry meds are masking something. I'm 6+2 and I was a wreck last week but decided Im going to make myself sick with the worry if I don't (try) to relax a little.

I wanted to send you a big hug and know that you're not alone in how you're feeling. I think we pick up on bad stories and let them bleed into our psychy rather than focusing on the many many good outcomes out there. Xx

Hi Mrs14. I don’t have any advice but wanted to let you know you are not alone. I’m 6+4 too but have been getting sharp shooting pains on my right side so they’ve brought my scan forward to tomorrow. I’m absolutely terrified. At least we don’t have long to wait. Fingers crossed for both of us xx

Hi Mrs. Of course you are going to feel anxious following any type of miscarriage, so that's natural. I would be reassured that the bleeding has not continued, so could be leftover trauma from transfer etc. Just keep up with any prescribed medication and rest when you can. Hope all goes well for you on Thursday. Diane

Hi @Mrs14, we are in the same boat! I also have my first scan this Thursday too and have also been very anxious about the viability and wondered if the pessaries are messing with my hormones. I also had a small bleed around 4 weeks. In the last few days I’ve developed pretty awful nausea and hope that this is a positive sign but like you I’ve had bad experiences in the past and it feels like I’m going to be holding my breathe until each hurdle. I am trying to take one day at a time and nothing we do can change the outcome so we must just try and focus on the positives and be hopeful and look after ourselves. Please keep us posted and I will be keeping my fingers crossed for both of us. Xx
