Limbo Land

8w0d.

Can time go any slower?

This is terrible, how I’m wishing time to hurry up and pass. Many people in this world wish they would be able to just have a few more seconds here and there. The father who missed the flight to see his daughter for Christmas. A swimmer’s spirit sunk to the lowest of low when beat by his competitor by 3 seconds in the finals. Two young lovers wishing there’s just few more hours to spend together, as their summer affair has come to an end and school starts again, in separate parts of the world. I could go on, but you get the picture. And here I am wishing it to fast forward 4 weeks.

My last pregnancy ended at exactly 8w0d.

This pregnancy, I’m still having brown blood/spotting, am still in limbo. Having no symptoms of pregnancy at all. Not knowing if there’s still a baby inside of me who is alive and well.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

27 more hours til ultrasound.

    My longest pregnancy prior to this was 7w6d and the time from 8 weeks to 12 was killing me. So I completely, completely understand. Even now, time is still slow. Can’t it be like July already?! Please!!!

    As for flying…I flew first at 10w3d and I felt tremendously sick the entire time. We had 2 flights, with a layover that consisted of basically running to catch our next and while I didn’t have cramping or headaches, my feet did swell up, my legs ached and I felt sick. I threw up shortly after we landed and again at dinner.

    Flying back at 12w3d was a lot better. I did feel much more fatigued than before but not as sickly pregnant feeling. I made sure to do ankle and calf exercises while flying and I got up to go pee rather than hold it. I think the walking did good, even if it was for 30 seconds each way.

    I hope your scan goes well. Fingers crossed, breath is held.

    Many positive thought and wishes for everything to go fantastically well at your u/s. Waiting sucks rooyally and I am always torn between hoping the time goes faster and being scared that it will and things will go to hell in a handbasket.

    I read the post you linked to about your last pregnancy. What a difficult way to lose a pregnancy (not that any way is easy). It had me in tears.
