Rainbow Baby..

Anyone carried/is carrying a rainbow baby now? I miscarried in Feb and am now pregnant again. At week 4 and 2 days, it may be early but I am experiencing sleepiness in the daytime and insomnia at night. Also, my nipples are very painful to the touch. Breasts are not sore though. Anyway, my question is.. did/are you doing anything unique/different from the last time to “protect” your rainbow baby. Also, when did you go for your first scan? I’m wondering if I should wait till week 8. (Appreciate answers in English please)

I gave birth to my rainbow baby on Feb. Miscarried on May 2019 & got pregnant again on June 2020. The moment I found out I was pregnant, I self bed rest but still do light housechores & all that. I went to polyclinic for a referral at roughly 6 weeks & got my 1st appt at 10 weeks +. Best is to wait cos if you go earlier, you might not see or hear anything. But if you intend to go for a referral, do now cos the waiting time is a mth.

Hi, thanks for sharing. Am going private as I want to choose doctor who is experienced in dealing with mc cases. Before my mc in Feb I went for first appointment at 6+weeks. Couldn’t see anything on scan but transvaginal could see and detect heartbeat. I was on total bed rest the last time, couldn’t save. This time I’m trying to be a bit more “normal” by still doing things like cooking, light cleaning and driving. At the same time still very scared and paranoid.
