High risk check in

[caseyathebat]

Hey ladies, let's get a high risk count going. I don't know how many are here so roll call.

I'm high risk because I miscarried a twin at 6 weeks. I've also been told that I will deliver 2 weeks early via c-section because my body isn't big enough to carry babys. We're still waiting on our second opinion on that. This is my second pregnancy , I had DS almost 8 years ago. I hope you all are doing well and I can't wait to hear from you all.

Hola! I'm high-risk for the second time as a result of a large host of autoimmune issues. I'm at a new clinic for this pregnancy, and they don't run my care through an MFM like my last OB did--so, I only see an MFM when needed. I also had GD last time, and have my glucose test in a few weeks. EEK!

Hi! I'm high risk due to two misscairages in 2014 and early bleeding.

[caseyathebat]

Girlymama79 I'm so sorry for your loss and hope that you have a easy pregnancy with no bumps.

I'm not officially high risk... yet. But I'm teetering on the edge. Mind if I join you ladies? I have symptomatic complete placenta previa. If I have one more big bleed then my midwife will categorize me as high risk and over the last few days I seem to be heading that way. So far it's only been a couple small bleeds but this early on and with a couple small bleeds in the last few days it almost seems inevitable. I thought that the bathroom freak outs were done after the first trimester but it seems like I'm trying to avoid having a heart attack every time I head to the bathroom today. Time to crawl back under the covers I think!

I am high risk because I have pre-existing HBP. It has been well controlled thus far, so hopefully I will keep chugging along, coplication free!

Best of luck to all the other high risk mamas!

I'm in the same boat as you. Pre-existing HBP. This trimester it's actually looked fairly normal, but I know it can start increasing at any time. I've been trying to walk, but it's been very inconsistent. We shall see!!

I'm here, although I took a Bump hiatus so I wasn't posting much before all this went down.
I'm high risk because I'm ooooooooold, have two previous losses, a pre-term delivery, and a history of blood, bleeding, and subchorionic hemorrhages. Good times!

Hi ladies! I'm high risk because I'm carrying twins and have PIH and CPP. I had a pretty heavy bleed a week and half ago and was hospitalized for a couple days, so I'm on home bed rest for the rest of the pregnancy.

Herro. I'm high risk bc of my AMA and pre-existing HBP. the 3rd med they put me on finally stuck. They said the "might" graduate me to regular OB v. MFM but I suspect I'll stay in MFM the whole time, especially they start monthly US at 28 and weekly non stress tests at 32.

Hey ladies sorry I've been busy burnin the bump down. Sorry I didn't post this yesterday. How are all of you wonderful ladies doing? I've been feeling super tired and like my stomach is stretching in the most painful way. It hurts. No update yet other than that I'm seeing the specialist tomorrow for my second opinion.

I'm probably going to be high-risk. Had intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) with DD, and chances of recurrence are very high. I didn't start itching until 33 weeks last time, but it tends to recur earlier each time, so it's just a waiting game at this point.

Let us know how things go with the specialist. Hope everything is okay!!

I'm super tired as well. That is probably why I'm having a difficult time peeling myself off the couch after work to go walk. I barely make it past 8:00 in the evenings. There's no shame in going to bed like I'm a four-year-old, is there?

Feel better soon!!

Edited because I'm a moron and missed your initial post to start the thread.

Hi all,

I'm high risk because of Graves Disease and resulting Hypothyroidism. Lots of ultrasounds and stress tests.

tahitiandreamin I'm not completely considered high risk yet either, but I had DS at 33w3d unexplained and we were both healthy, so I'm likely going to start more frequent appointments come third tri and follow more closely to watch if it will happen again.

Good luck to everyone, just wanted to let you know I'll be poking my nose in here once in awhile especially later!

[fuccimama]

I am high risk because of IC; I uad two miscarriages before DS. With DS I had a cerclage placed, and I have one with this LO too, to help keep him cooking.
