You lucky thing! Let us know how you get on...:D

Thanks for the suggestion Corbyn i didnt think of that im going to ask them and see

Hi, welcome to the first tri board! I know a few of us on here are pregant after mc's, but only 1 or 2, that must have been heartbreaking for you.
I'm not registered with a GP yet as I'm moving house this weekend, so I went to the new medicare walk in GP centre in town and explained about my spotting and cramps and they just booked me into the EPAU with no fuss. You don't have to be registered there, so if you have no joy with your own GP then give them a try, they really are very helpful.
Good luck!!

How are you now GoGo? Hope theres no-more brown stuff.

Hi Binty, spotting seems to have stopped again but I've had some nasty cramps and stretching pains when standing up too quickly, I'm hoping it's just things growing and stretching!
Had some nasty nausea walking round Morrisons this morning so I'm still 'feeling' pregnant!
I'll be back on to let you know what happens at the scan....feeling strangely calm, but I'll be bouncing off the walls come tomorrow lunch time!

When are you going back for your next scan?

I hope everything goes well!

I'm due back there Friday at 4.30pm, it's going to be a loooooooong few days! :hihi:

Oh, it's going to drag!

I'm just grateful I've got the house move to keep me occupied, been packing boxes most of the weekend so it's not been too bad thankfully!

Just thought, anyone heard from lizzzbur? I know she got her positive test around the same time as me and spotty.....hope she's ok!

Good luck Go-Go. i'm sure the scan will confirm all is well and put your mind at rest.

I have one on thursday (will be 7 weeks) and am starting to stress that they won't be able to find anything and tell me I'm not pregnant after all. That's in spite of my b**bs killing me, and feeling sick and exhausted all the time! I guess it's just unavoidable that we're going to worry!

iv had belly pain too,when i sneeze or make a sudden movement...just a sharp pain that goes across the bottom of my belly.......
which morrisons were you in,out of interest?!!!!
good luck with the scan x

Hi Ladies,
I have little sharp pains in what feels like my filop tubes. Its just a little niggle every now and then but enough to be noticable.

How early can you get a scan. I thought it was 10 - 12 weeks so haven't rushed to book in with my doctor - is this the case?

Take it easy.

A very tired Strawb

my scan is 21st may,i will be 9+4 weeks preg.when i rang jessops the midwife said they like to do scans between 8-12 weeks now.

so then ladies.what would you like?boy or girl....i know eveyone says "we dont mind"....but i defo had a preferance when i was pregnant with my daughter......i really,really wanted a girl,because in my partners family its all boys...when i went for my 20 week scan they were all saying "good luck with the scan,but its defo a boy"....then during the scan he asked if we'd like to know the sex,i said go on then but everyone thinks its a boy(even though in my heart of hearts i knew it was a girl,but didn't dare hope!!)he said some one is here to prove you wrong...its a girl!!!wow...what a feeling that was!!!
so this time round we have said to everyone that "we dont care what we have"but ill admit to you guys...."cos i can!!lol".....i really really want a boy!!!!
and we have names too!!!does anyone else?....we have maddison for a girl and alfie for a boy!!

Hi all well im kinda worried now I was rushed in for a emergency scan friday and bloods the pregnancy sack was there but they couldnt see anything in it, They thought I might have my dates wrong so said the hormone level in my blood would give them a better idea.
But the level was right for my dates so now they think it might be a eptopic pregnancy I have to wait till friday to have another scan and if there is no change then its bad news, They also say it could be twins but one in the sack and one not its going to be a long wk

how is everyone else???

6-7 wks had pain and bleeding ever had this with my prev pregnancy so went to the docs and he booked me striaght in I will let everyone know what happens ..

Hi Ladies

It's not good news, sounds like I'm in the same boat as you BMW. My scan today showed an empty sac, so had one lot of bloods today and going back Thursday morning for the next lot to see what's going on.
My spotting was very light though so I had high hopes, but hey, these things happen. I'm pretty sure my dates are correct so I'm not holding out much hope to be honest. :(
Had a few tears in the car but me and my fella have had a good talk and I'm trying to stay positive.

I'll keep you posted on the bloods though.

Hope you are all doing well!

BMW - if you want to chat, please feel free to PM me hun....take care.x

I wish the both of you best of luck! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you xx

I have sore boobs still, feeling a bit sick every now and again and i could have fell asleep at work today...:hihi:

Thanks Binty (and spotty!), thankfully I have a wonderful partner who will help me through whatever comes in the next few weeks (which is more than can be said about my ex-husband after my last mc!)

Hope you aren't suffering too much with the sore b00bs!

i had my scan and am four days more preggers than i thought, so now i am 13+ 4weeks, may have to make i tri 2 thread and sit and wait for you all lol.

You'll be waiting a long time...:hihi:

Did everything go ok with your scan bj? :)

I'd thought about doing that too! I'm 18 weeks. :)

You'll be waiting a long time...:hihi:

Everything was fine, i dont know what i expected but i wasnt expecting nothing like that, no drama, just a normal baby growing at the right rate :) Had a truck load of blood took and they gave me more nicotine patches (this is good, they seem to work i havent smoked for some time)

I'd thought about doing that too! I'm 18 weeks. :)

we should make one tbh :hihi:

Also this is stolen from another forum, a bump growth watch lol
Every monday wrap toilet roll around yourself from you belly button all the way round and baack. Count the sheets after and see how much bigger bump is week after. I am already 9 sheets eeeek

Well done :thumbsup:

Hi Ladies,
Thanks for the info about when you had your scans - it's been useful to know & I was also glad to hear that the bloods came back OK. It's really nerve racking for us first timers!

ps. Bobs are officially bigger and sore!

Corbyn: have you been keeping that under your hat, or did I miss an announcement? Or, worse, did I already congratulate you and forget? (Baby Brains)

strawb: Have you ever suffered from pain when ovulating? It has a german name. Anyway, I do, and suffered the same pain throughout both pregnancies. Sometimes it felt like my fallopian tubes were going to burst. I had them run the ultrasound over them, but they saw nothing and all was fine.

Go Go, BMW: I'm so sorry you're having all this uncertainty and scariness. Best of luck from me, and huge hugs. xxx

Corbyn: have you been keeping that under your hat, or did I miss an announcement? Or, worse, did I already congratulate you and forget? (Baby Brains)

:hihi: I think I first posted around 5 weeks pregnant when I was worried about things and yeh you did congratulate me then. Must be the baby brain, I've started getting mine already too!

Thank you all for your kind words gogo the same goes for me any time you can pm me im glad you have all the support, you sound like we have a similar situations as my ex husband was a ****** but never mind let us know thursday hopfully your hormone level will have doubled im keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you..

If it's not meant to be then we just try again....you can't rush perfection!! :)

I like that gogo:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Am keeping my fingers crossed for both of you. Sorry to hear that you're having to go through this - it must be awful.

My first scan is tomorrow - will keep you posted.

Good luck bluecanary! :thumbsup:

Hi, I'm gonna join in too!! I'm 7 weeks today. Feelin a bit rubbish, sooo tired and feelin sick which is totally different to last time with daughter cos did'nt really have any symptoms till about 9 weeks.

I'm showing already (which I did last time, was in mat jeans at 11 weeks!!) this is annoying though cos looks like people will start guessing soon.

Sorry to hear your having bad experiences Gogo and BMW. I've got fingers crossed for both of you.

found out other day, well pleased but only 4 weeks ages to go

Congratulations! You can join the rest of us :hihi:

Was really relieved that I scan showed a healthy embryo - with a tiny heartbeat! It's starting to feel real now, though I know there's still a long way to go!

GoGo and BMW - I can only imagine the terrible stress that you're going through at the moment. Really hoping things turn out OK...

Congrats lubylou! Come and join us on the first trimester megathread! Is it your first?

congratulations!!! x

how many weeks are you bluecanary?

sorry just read your other thread that you are 7weeks!!!!

go go....do you have your bloods today?or was it a scan?

go go....do you have your bloods today?or was it a scan?

Had my second lot of bloods today, should get the results later....although from the first lot of bloods it's not looking promising. The HCG count was really high so it tied in with my original dates which put me 7 weeks, so the chances of it being an very early pregnancy sac are pretty much non-existant.
If this count has gone up then I'll have to wait 10 days for another scan and it's the same, or gone down then I'll be arranging a managed miscarriage.
I think I know deep down that it's going to be bad news, I just kind of want to get it over and done with now and move on to attempt no.3! :D

Anyway, I'm aware that I may be freaking some of you out and scaring you senseless before your scans so I'm very sorry if I have!! I shall still be following your progress with great interest and I really hope you all have healthy pregnancies! :D

hey...your not scaring me hun...im a very strong beliver that miscarriages happen for a reason and that the baby hasn't developed properly..sounds like your a strong minded woman too and you are defo going about this the right way.
good luck for your results honey....and if its not ment to be then you can keep us updated on the trying!!!xx

Thanks Hun
Only kick in the teeth is that this pregnancy was conceived on holiday in Cuba so I'm wondering if the other half will be willing to fork out for another caribbean holiday to try for the next one but I'm not holding my breath! :hihi:

I'm thinking Barbados......?? :hihi:

hey guys im 4 weeks gone, and am already feeling very tired boohoo but all worth it, a great little thread this is

Is the boob soreness supposed to die down at any stage does anyone know? Mine seem to be ok during the day but come night time, i'm struggling to sleep in bed...:hihi:

hey guys im 4 weeks gone, and am already feeling very tired boohoo but all worth it, a great little thread this is

omg i must be going daft, just read all posts and noticed id already posted, totally didnt remember opps:loopy::suspect:

Congrats lubylou! Come and join us on the first trimester megathread! Is it your first?

thanks hun and its my 4th baby but 3rd child i get to take care of

No it's ok, the mods will have merged your thread with this one :)

No it's ok, the mods will have merged your thread with this one :)


oh thanks lol i feel so thick hehe, i thought i had but was unsure and thought maybe id just been thinking about posting, duhhhhh:D

omg i must be going daft, just read all posts and noticed id already posted, totally didnt remember opps:loopy::suspect:

I think your thread was merged with this one so don't worry you are not going mad!

Binty, my boobs were sore maybe until about 8/9 weeks but my sickness only went at 16/17 weeks. Only this last 2 weeks now I'm nearly 19 weeks that I've felt a bit better, although still very tired. With my son I'm sure I felt quite normal at this stage!

Oh dear, i'm 7 weeks today (i think!) and at night time, they really do hurt but at the moment, they're fine. I hope it stops for me soon...:hihi:

mine are ok during the day too,but if i press them(to check i still have symptoms,,,,yer know how it is!lol!)they feel bruised.but when i take my bra off at night,omg.....they stay where they are and are like rock!!!!

I've just pressed mine and they're ok now....:hihi:

I've just pressed mine and they're ok now....:hihi:
lol!!!can just imagine you sat there!!iv just done the same....OH said "what are you doin?!!":hihi:
good luck with the scan tomorrow hun......4.30 seems like a life time to have to wait all day!!iv got the midwife tomoz.....did your midwife try and listen for a heartbeat?or is it still to early?.......everyone is having scans,i want mine to hurry up!!!

They've changed it, it's now at 5.15pm :( My midwife didn't do anything apart from ask me questions, fill in some forms then send me on my way. Definitely didn't check for a heartbeat, i didn't think they did that? It could still be a little to early.

hmmmmm,still not sure.she's still comin to my house too,which i find a bit odd!!but app thats the way they do things at my surgery.
oh well....i suppose ill find out everything tomorrow!

Best of luck! :thumbsup:

Best of luck! :thumbsup:
you too hun:thumbsup:

My midwife came to my house this time. I thought it was good as my son could play with his toys whilst we filled in all the paperwork. I don't think they can listen for a heartbeat so early. I was 16 weeks when they listened.

The time will pass so quickly and it will be your scan before you know it. I was 12+5 when I had mine and it seemed ages to wait but now it only seems like yesterday and I'm nearly at my 20 week one one which I'm very excited about :D

uhhhhhhhh,now my 20 week scan,i cant wait for that one!!!will you be finding out the sex?....we are!!
i didn't think they could hear the heartbeat at this stage....my first scan will be when im 9+4

Are you going to find out what you're having, Corbyn? It doesn't seem 5 minutes ago since i read a thread of yours saying you'd just found out...:hihi:

Are you going to find out what you're having, Corbyn? It doesn't seem 5 minutes ago since i read a thread of yours saying you'd just found out...:hihi:

I'll be finding out but i'm not sure D2J wants to :hihi: I'd love a little girl, i really like the name Maddison Grace :)

I know, time really has passed quickly! I think we will find out. My Husband didn't want to but I can't resist and he can't stand not knowing if I know!

I'll be finding out but i'm not sure D2J wants to :hihi: I'd love a little girl, i really like the name Maddison Grace :)

thats the exact same name we have for a girl!!!!:o.......my god you are my twin!!!!!:o

:o No-way!!!! We like Alfie too! :wow: :wow:

I can just imagine it now...:hihi: :hihi:

good luck bints for today.....
go go hope you are ok,did you get your results?
iv got the midwife in an hour and half,so best tidy up and take the dog for a walk...even though i feel like throwin up!!

I did hun, HCG count has gone up, but only about 5% increase (should have doubled) so got to wait for another bloomin' scan on Thursday to confirm there are no developments. :rolleyes:
So get to look forward to pregnancy symptoms for another week (I don't mind the d-cups though!)

I said to my OH yesterday that I feel like a dog with a phantom pregnancy!

Hugs, GoGo...it must be very difficult, all this waiting. My thoughts are with you. xx

its awfull the waiting game isn't it......thinkin of you hun
had the midwife,just form filling etc.she's really nice.which is good because the one i had with my daughter was horrible!!she does'nt work there anymore thank god!!

Thanks again guys.

Glad you got a nice midwife spotty, you're going to be seeing a lot of her after all!

I'll try and get on over the weekend cos I want to know how Binty & BMW get on at their scans today but we'll be cut off from humanity until we can get our phoneline and internet up and running in the new house so I'll have to dig my wireless dongle out of whichever cardboard box it's currently in and see if I can get that to work!

Picking the keys up at 4.30.....can't wait!! :D

its awfull the waiting game isn't it......thinkin of you hun

Sounds the same as me. I was really pleased that the midwife had changed since I had my son. I wouldn't say the other one was awful but I certainly didn't find her very good. I wonder if it's the same one. My midwife now is called Alison.

Hi all well it was good news for me they did a scan and found the baby straight away there is a small bleed above the baby but they say everything should be fine fingers crossed ..

Gogo I hope your move went well and your holding up

thats brill news love!!!are you as many weeks as you thought you was?

Glad all is well B.M.W x

A wk behind so 7 wks monday still really early x x

really?!! thats it then,i might as well just get used to the fact that im gonna be a week behind too!!!i should be 8 weeks tomorrow!

Probably Spotty! I've been put a week back too!

lol were not much good at this so does this mean we are all due the same time??

I've been given the date of NYE (great! :roll: :hihi:) but i think we're all due around the same time, probably within a week or so of each other.

lol I have the new date Christmas eve what a wonderfull present I hope it comes early not sure my daughter would be very happy with it being Christmas lol

I had the date of christmas eve before she put me back a week, i'm sure they'll probably change my dates again anyway on my next scan in a couple of weeks...:hihi:

I'm due Christmas Day! Hope the nurses aren't too hungover....

Glad to hear that everything's OK BMW. Go-go, I hope you're move went well and you're holding up OK (can't think of anything worse than moving house at the moment - even going shopping is an effort!)

iv felt really really ill today....proper sick,so bad i had to lie down and it took me 3 hours to come round!!all iv had to eat is 3 fig rolls!!!banging headache too.....just taken the dog for a walk and just been to the dvd shop so gonna have a cosy night in with the OH.roll on week 13!!
anyone had any cravings?...i have,for crisps...tangy ones....prawn cocktail,salt and vinegar chip sticks.....and i cant stand meat!!chicken,beef etc,makes my stomach churn at the thought!!!

Anything and everything for me :hihi: Seriously though, the thought of me having a 'meal out' really turns my stomach.

yeah,i cant do big meals......now big mac meals...can manage them!!

Have never been a fan of McDonalds, but driving back from a weekend away on monday, was seized with a sudden craving and polished off a Big Mac and fries. Felt dirty afterwards!

No cravings as such, but have been feeling hungry a lot. When I feel sick, eating something seems to help as well. Have bought some Ryvita so I don't eat crisps and biscuits all the time (though in actul fact, I'm just eating both!). Used to be an avid tea drinker, but seem to have gone off that the last few days.

Cant drink tea or coffee:gag:
So tired all the time just keep falling asleep dreading work tomorrow il be snoozing at my desk:hihi::hihi:

We went out to celebrate the good news friday and before I even got out the resturant it was in the toilet we wont be eating out again for a while :(

Hope everyone ok hope the headache has gone x

I'm still feeling really queasy and it's doing my head in :hihi: I've bought some ginger biscuits today hoping they'll do something.

Apart from sore boobs and a few cramps, i'm still the same. I have had to have an afternoon nap though these past 2 days :hihi:

Congratulations, BMW :)

Probably not Spotty! Dunno who merged them though.

I definitely think the tiredness has kicked in for me :(

The sickness gets better, infact i thought i was done with it until yesterday. But once every now and again is fine by me. I can also drink coffee again, something that made my stomach turn just thinking about a few weeks ago.

Morning ladies

Just exploiting works internet seeing as my home internet still isn't set up!

BMW - I was so thrilled for you when I read your post, you must be so relieved and I really hope the rest of your pregnancy is complication free!

Been holding up ok-ish. The house move went well, but once we finally sat down for 5 minutes it hit me hard and I was in a bit of a state on Sunday, been all over the place ever since, feeling very fustrated (especially as I still have morning sickness!) and caught up between trying to hold on to that little bit of hope, and also being prepared for the worst......just really want to get Thursday over and done with! :(

Hope the rest of you are holding up ok! Oh, and I've found that nibbling on ritz crackers is great for getting rid of that awful sick to the stomach feeling if anyone wants to give it a go! ;)

Morning All,
I am off to get my pregnancy confirmed today - not sure what to expect as the doctor has only given me a 10 minute appointment. Any ideas?

I felt quite queasy this morning - like I was hung over but without the alcohol!

Hope you are all feeling OK.

Hope you are all feeling OK.

You don't see the doctor at my practice now, you just ring the midwife and book in with her directly. When I saw the doctor with my son, it was a very short appointment. They either refer you to the midwife or give you details of how to contact them and then just note down that you are pregnant. They don't actaully confirm it as they don't normally do tests. If you have had a positive home pregnancy test then that's all the confimation they need. They don't repeat as standard.

Congratulations. Hope you get sorted with a nice midwife.

HI Gogo thankyou and dont give up hope just yet you never know look at me glad the move went well x

Well im so tired I had a day off today and spent the most of it sleeping I just cant seem to move Im either starving or feeling sick oh when I was awake I burst into tears twice for no reason and everyone says im grumpy anyone else feeling like this ????

go go...are you still bleeding hun or has that stopped now?iv got my fingers and legs crossed for you!!
strawb....how did you get on at the docs?my gp didn't do a test,they take your word for it now as tests now days are just as reliable as the docs one's.how far are you?
Im feeling the tiredness now too,yawning all day at work and bed for 10 and just dont wanna get up in the mornings!!
back to weeing 10 million times a day as well!!

Morning

Yeah the spotting stopped completely pretty much as soon as I had the first scan.....oh well, only 24 more hours to wait.
BMW - now I know what you meant when you said it was the longest week of your life!

Hi All,
The doctors was fine - just as you'd all said - I took some pee though (felt a bit silly afterwards!).

They have told me to come back in about a month to see the midwife. It was a bit of a non-event really. I was surprised that they don't do pregnancy tests now - good old NHS.

We have told our direct family now - it was nice but everyone is fussing and I am not a fussy person, I do appreciate that everyone is very happy and excited though. I seams like a long time away (early Jan).

I think I am going to go for a snooze now as I am not sleeping well.

Take care.

hiya all,im passed the glorious 1st trimester (thank God)
u normally ave your bookin app with midwife after 1st scan,
when r u all due???

Glad all went ok. There's no point in them doing the tests if you've already done one as their tests aren't any more accurate. Time passes quickly, it ill be your scan before you know it :)

I'm also past the 1st Trimester although I didn't leave all the icky symptoms behind until a few weeks ago! I'm due early October with my second baby. I already have a son who has recently turned 2. When are you due?

Any news Go-Go? My fingers are well and truly crossed for you....

no news yet but has no internet so might have to wait till tomorrow fingers toes everything crossed

Hi ladies, thanks for all your kind words and wishes, unfortunately it's not good news. The scan showed the sac hadn't changed so after a chat with the consultant, we've opted for medical management.
I'm going in on Saturday for the first lot of tablets to block the hormones and then I'm back in at 7.30am for the next lot of tablets to induce the miscarriage. I'm heartbroken, but also relieved that the waiting is over.

So I'll be leaving the 1st tri thread, but I'll be checking on here to see how you're all getting on. I hope you all have healthy and happy pregnancies and I'm sure that I'll be back very soon to start another 1st tri thread for the springtime!

Oh, and just to make you all jealous, I'm sat having a large chilled glass of chardonnay and my god it's good!! :P

I'm going in on Saturday for the first lot of tablets to block the hormones and then I'm back in at 7.30am for the next lot of tablets to induce the miscarriage. I'm heartbroken, but also relieved that the waiting is over.

So I'll be leaving the 1st tri thread, but I'll be checking on here to see how you're all getting on. I hope you all have healthy and happy pregnancies and I'm sure that I'll be back very soon to start another 1st tri thread for the springtime!

Oh, and just to make you all jealous, I'm sat having a large chilled glass of chardonnay and my god it's good!! :P

I'm feeling fine - sorry ladies! :hihi: No symptoms at all apart from normal cramping :)

Still craving the odd stuff every now and again but that's about it. Can't wait to see my LO on Thursday :love:

Hi all

Well I read earlier about people measuring themselves with tiolet roll so here goes im 8 pieces of tiolet roll right round my middle :hihi:

Im still really really tired and border on either feeling really sick or starving but im 10wks now so hoping it will die down after the 12th week mark ;)

How is everyone else

My nausea has kicked in for the last day or so and it's made me feel crap! Apart from that though, i'm not to bad.

oh yes!!!join the club!!:hihi:
we just went out for a birthday meal....managed to eat my meal but by the time the sharing sundae came out i couldn't eat it :mad:
had to leave it to the OH to eat....not that he complained!:suspect:

Oooh did you go anywhere nice? I'm surprised you've kept it down! :hihi:

we went to aunt sallys near the hallamshire hospital...they have 2 4 1 meals...i had dried up pasta with rock hard garlic bread,OH had dried up ribs in lots of sloppy sauce....others had crap meal too!kids meals came out half hour after adults..
but we had a laugh at the attitude a certain member of staff had which made it easier to swallow!!lol!!
just thinking about bringing it back up now though......!!!

I think sometimes if we could actually throw up we may feel better, don't you think?

I'd rather not though :confused:

iv a phobia of being sick tho!!iv not been sick since i was in labour with beth and that was 7 years ago!!

Ahhh join the club. The thought of me being sick makes me sweat and get really agitated. Hence why i try and do everything i can to prevent it from happening :hihi:

Hopefully we'll get through it without being sick :)

im 6-7 weeks and its my 4th pregnancy, im 27 and this is worse then the others already
does it get harder with each one???
i always wanting to sleep and when i cant im ratty, when i wake i feel worse
i feel sick when im hungry then when i eat i feel sicky for hours after, when i eat now i dread it.


its awful,to be honest ive felt ill for last week, no energy, i feel really down in the dumps, never been this bad b4

well just an update that lastnight was the worst night yet and not even far pregnant, i went to bed at 2am, i laid there feeling really sick until 3am so came down for a slice of toast which made me feel better,so i go back to bed after eating it and suddenly feel really sick,, i could have cried, i finally fell asleep just after 4am and woke at 5.20am with heartburn, tossed and turned for ages, couldnt get comfy at all, so got up and tried to sleep on the sofa, but it was too light by then so no chance, i go back up at 7am hoping to get an hour b4 kids up, no chance, had to make myself sick at about 7.15am and woke kids up doing so, grrrrr

so all in all 1 hour 20 min sleep, now wide awake but feel rotten but hey i dont feel sick now im not trying to sleep, sod laws

im thinking twins lol with how this time is as i never been like this b4, hope theres only one haha

Have been quite lucky with the sickness. Had some nausea around week 6-7, but was never actually sick. It seems to have eased off now, but I'm constantly hungry, but don't fancy anything specific to eat, which is weird. Still gone off tea, which I used to drink by the bucketload!

By the way, do people have dates for their first scan at Jessops, and if so, how far along will you be? I'm getting on for 9 weeks and I haven't heard from them yet. My GP told me they scan at 13-15 weeks which is later then I expected (and if true, really annoying as we were hoping to tell family before then!)

My GP told me they scan at 13-15 weeks which is later then I expected (and if true, really annoying as we were hoping to tell family before then!)

I know a couple of people on here have their scans at around 9 weeks but I think that's quite early. I have just had my 20 week scan but I had my first scan at 12-13 weeks. My friend who is due just before me had hers at 15-16 weeks (which I do think is a bit late). When did you book in? I booked in at 7 weeks and got my scan through at around 9 weeks.

I booked in (as in going to my GP) at between 7 and 8 weeks (I know this is probably later than most people). I really hope to hear soon.....

When I asked on here people said they normally heard about 2 weeks after booking in. That was the case for me too so I think you will hear soon. I don't think 7/8 weeks is that late to book in. I was 7 and a half weeks when I saw my midwife as that was the app she offered me (you go straight to midwife at my docs, don't see doctor).

Don't worry about your scan being a little later than other people's. A lot of people like to wait until they are 12 weeks until they tell people so it's quite nice if your scan coincides with you reaching 12 weeks. It's like 2 reassurances all at once. That's what we found this time. Last time I was 16 weeks when I had my scan so I told people first.

I remember somebody on here saying that they rang Jessops to ask when their appointment was. It may be booked but you haven't received the letter yet so I would give them a ring if you are really desperate to know. Good luck.

Thanks Corbyn- that's reassuring. Hopefully I'll hear by the start of next week (will be 2 weeks since my GP appointment), and if not, I'll phone them.

guess what feel sick again, this doesnt feel normal at all, im constantly feeling sick

guess what feel sick again, this doesnt feel normal at all, im constantly feeling sick

im feeling sick all the time too and i have a bump and im 9+3,i think its twins(and i so hope its not!)......guess ill find out tomorrow at my scan.....im so excited im nearly peein ma self!!just know ill not be able to sleep tonight!!
yes my scan might be early but thats the date they gave me and jessops said they now try to scan between 8 and 12 weeks.im going to book a private scan around 14-15 weeks tho so it'll not be such a big gap between the 9week and 20 week scan.
"binty"im sure we were seperated at birth!!think we need to ask our parents if we were adopted!!lol!!we will sooooo have to meet up when the babys r here!!

I've been feelin really sick but can't actually be sick!!! It seems to have eased off a bit now but some days are better than others. I'm really sensitive to smells, the smell of the car makes me nauseous and so does the smell of coffee which I normally love!!

I've got my scan at 12 weeks, 3 weeks today!! Can't wait.

:hihi: Yes we will!

I've been feeling absolutely crap again today :( So can't wait to see my LO again tomorrow....:love:

well iv been so excited about my scan,but now im slightly nervous incase there is nothing there,or no heart beat......14 hours to go.....

binty....we just posted at the same time again!!!

Spotty, please go away. you're freaking me out.





















;) :hihi:

Best of luck for tomorrow hun! If you're delayed tomorrow i'll see you at Jessops :hihi:

good luck for today binty!!hopefully i wont be that delayed!!!lol!
ill try and post a pic as well..x

good lucky binty an spottydog thinking of u both enjoy an hope the gel not to cold :hihi:

well iv been!!and wow:love::love: im in love!!!
could see the baby moving around and everything!!and its little heart beat!!
im a little futher on than i thought,10weeks instead of 9weeks:thumbsup: so my new date is 17th dec!!:D
my next scan is booked for the 30july at 10am......but im going to pay for a private scan to be done at 15weeks...cos i cant wait that long to see it again!!
will try and take a photo of the scan pic and try and upload it.
binty...i was there for 2hours!!!so i nearly did bump into you!!:hihi:

http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x93/dottyandlogan/Photo0059.jpg
hope that works...forgot to add that there's only one by the way!!but bet you guessed that!!

Glad it all went well. Always good to be told you're further than you thought! If you just want to see your baby again then great go for the private scan but I was just thinking if it's more for reassurance you might want to wait and see if you start to feel the baby. I felt this baby at 15-16 weeks so that provided me with the reassurance I needed up until my 20 week scan. Now is the longest wait as I don't get to see my baby again until it is born!

I'm back too. Saw my LO's heartbeat flickering away :love:

They've put me on 8+3 and my next scan is 17th August, i have to wait ages!!! :( Decided i'm going to book a private scan sometime just to make sure everything is ok.

My midwife and Sonographer we're so miserable it was unreal.

I was there 3.5 hours, surely that's a record? :hihi:

I'd try to put a picture up but you can't make anything out at all :hihi:

OH SHELL! When are you coming out so I can see my adopted niece/nephew??!

So glad everything's fine, I'm so happy for you both!

3 1/2 hours though :wow:

3 1/2 hours though :wow:

There's nothing to see, it's more-or-less just a blur :hihi:

I can't make anything out at all :confused:

3.5 hours and it was rammed full so i wasn't happy :hihi:

3.5 hours?gosh!!that must be a record!!tbh though,once we'd had the scan i just wanted to go and have some dinner!!!
think i was lucky with the photo as she did me two and the second one looks just like a round blob!!was only in there 5mins!!!it was asleep when she first looked with its little heart beating away...then she wobbled my belly to wake it up and it did!!started to move its arms and legs!!! i swear my heart melted!!cant wait for the next time and its soooo far away.....binty,yours seems even longer away doesn't it hun...but if we both book private it wont be as long!!

has anyone tried the chinese gender calculator?
http://baby2see.com/gender/prediction.html
hope that link works....i tried it out for my daughter and it predicted a girl....correct!!
just tried it now and it says boy!!!yey!!!lol!!might not be true but will be fun to find out!!

Hi ladies congratulations everyone. I just tried the gender calculator for when I had my daughter and it said baby boy :hihi: which I think may be just a little bit wrong as I have a very stroppy almost 11 month old baby girl :hihi:.

I did the gender calculator too and it said 'maybe a baby girl' :) I hope so, i'd love a little girl :D

I think you will have a baby girl *binty*.

I think you will have a baby girl *binty*.

My OH's convinced i'm having a girl too :D

binty i reckon yours is a girl too....and im sure this one is a boy!!i knew my 7year old was gonna be a girl even tho everyone said it was a boy....so i guess mothers intuition does work sometimes!!
well i gagged this morning at the smell of last nights pizza!!!looked like a right idiot!!had to go outside it was that bad!!luckily i didnt throw up!!

I'm feeling a bit better today, felt queasy this morning but it's slowly going. Are you still get many cramps/aches/pains etc or have they gone a little now?

OH wants a boy and i dont mind.would be nice tho!!
cramps aches and pains have all gone now!!

I started bleeding and loosing clots about an hour ago, worried it's happening again, if it does i'm getting sterelised five times is too much will let you know how it goes.

Sorry to hear you're having some bleeding. I hope everything works out for you. Fingers crossed x

Really hope everything works out OK GudiGobla.

Fingers crossed for you x

how are things gudi?have been thinking of you x

Hi All i bled loads yesterday clots and all, got up in the middle of the night to use the loo and passed out, my husband heard the bang and came to see what was up he says i came round and passed out another twice, then had a fit, i dont remember, he took me to the northern as that's our closest hospital where i passed out again, i have never felt that crap in all my life, every thing was spinning and blurred, the northern transferred me to the hallamshire via ambulance, new experience for me, where i spent the night being a pin cusion poked and prodded, and no sleep at all, i lost a lot of blood that's the reason for the fainting, blood count of 8, apparently you are supposed to be over 11, and have been on a drip and given iron tablets, i still feel dizzy for a few seconds once i stand up, i have misscarried again and will now be looking into having a sterelisation, i cant keep doing this and i do have three kids, this has really shaken me up, i wish you all the very best of luck with your pregnancys and babys thanks for the concern you have shown to me.

GudiGobla I am sorry to hear that. Hope everything goes well in your future. X

GudiGobla I am sorry to hear that. Hope everything goes well in your future. X

Ditto! So sorry Gudi x

Gudi,
I am really sorry about your news too and sorry that you have been so poorly. Take care. Make sure the hubby and little ones look after you.

S

So sorry Gudigobla. Really hope things go better for you in the future.

Gudi, I am so sorry. Xxx

aw,hun.thats awfull....thinking of you at this terrible time.if you ever need to chat were all here for you xx

hows every one else feeling now?my sickness has worn off now and im starting to actually eat now!!iv lost 11lb!!certain things still make my stomach churn but im defo starting to feel better!!even managed to do a spring clean yesterday,which i havn't felt like doing since i knew i was pregnant!!

I've been feeling pretty normal for about a week now. No sore boobs, no sickness or anything. I was pretty calm, that was up until reading on a baby forum i'm on that a lady went for a scan at 10 weeks and the baby measured the right dates but there was no heartbeat so that's set me off worrying now :roll:

I'm sick of this worrying already and the next person to tell me not to or to put it to the back of my mind i'll slap 'em :hihi: :hihi:

but i bet she'd not seen a heartbeat before 10weeks?!
thats what they say,that the chance of misc after seeing a heartbeat reduces to just 15%.
im really wanting another scan soon!!!

Yeah she'd seen it at 6 weeks apparently :confused:

I've got another scan booked for 19th June so only have to wait 17 days....it's dragging already!

really?!!!!now you have me worried!!!
how come you have one on the 19th june?

I know what you mean. I've been relatively lucky it not getting much nausea, but at the back of my mind I can't help worrying that not feeling 'pregnant' means that there's something wrong! You hear so many horror stories, and you can't help worrying it's going to be you next.
I have a 12 week scan next thursday, and I'm counting down the days.....

have you already had a scan bluecanary?or is this your first?

I had one at 7 weeks, but seems like such a long time ago now!

how come everyone is having another scan except me!!my next one is not till 20 weeks!!

well....i have my 20 week scan on the 30th july.
and iv just booked one for the 8th july!!:hihi:
its actually a fetal sexing scan,so its only £50 but i will still get the see the bean earlier than i thought!!!
im reet happy!!!:hihi:

Oh tell me about it! :hihi: My OH doesn't understand that once you read these horror stories about the baby having no heartbeat after you've already seen it etc, you start to think it could be you.

Spotty, I've paid privately again for mine.

does anyone have a bump yet?!i still do!even tho iv lost 11lb my bump has...and wen iv done weight watchers before,my stomach is the first place to go!!
might take a picture an show ya!!
did the toilet roll sheet thing and im 8 sheets!!hmmmm,i was 9 an a half before,so must of lost some off my belly without realising it!!

I can't tell cos i already had a belly before :hihi: It's got a little harder but can't say i've got a bump as such, probably just bloating.

Is your belly always hard or just sometimes/most times?

na still wobbly!!lol!!....it looks hard but doesn't feel it,if u know what i mean!
infact two people asked today if i was pregnant!i tell them im 3months,sounds better than 12 weeks!!
i had a belly before too.....i just let it hang out now tho!!lol!!
hve gone from a trouser size 14 to a 12 so must of lost it off my waist.

Blimey you must have!!!

I keep prodding my belly to see if it's hard - poor LO :hihi:

well,im 12 weeks today!!!does that mean iv gotta bob off to the second trimester thread now?!!!

Lol bints it'll come out with a fingerprint permanently engraved into it's head:hihi:

well,im 12 weeks today!!!does that mean iv gotta bob off to the second trimester thread now?!!!

I wouldn't bother with that cos I don't have anyone to talk to there!! I'm nearly 23 weeks now and feeling big and fat and tired! My son who is 2 has also turned into devil child this week and I find myself thinking how the hell am I going to cope with 2 of them :o :help:

lol!!ill stay on here then!!!
binty,i just found this on a private scan website,.....
At 6 weeks gestation 78% of pregnancies in which a fetal heart beat is identified, will continue to term.
At 8 weeks gestation 98% of pregnancies in which a fetal heart beat is identified, will continue to term.
At 10 weeks gestation 99.4% of pregnancies in which a fetal heart beat is identified, will continue to term.

hope that makes you feel better,it has me!!x

Hi Binty, Spotty, BMW and everyone else, I'm just quickly popping in to see how you're doing, so glad you're all still here!! I can't believe you're all just about hitting the 12 week mark already, it seems to have gone so quickly! It's just a shame I can't still be there with you!

But without wanting to be glum, I'm doing ok, the last few weeks have been really hard but my other half has supported me all the way and my friends have been amazing too. We've still got a while to wait before we can try again, so to take our minds off it we're booking another holiday for later in the year (yay!) and keeping busy decorating the house and stuff.
I'm back on my diet too, managed to put about 8lbs on with all the pregnancy cravings & snacking, and then with all the comfort eating I did, so no more chinese takeaways for me! :(

Anyway, I'll still be checking up on your progress and I hope you're all going to post pictures from your next scans so I can see all your little christmas puddings! :D

Look after yourselves girls! :)
gogo.x

hi gogo!!its great to hear from you and im glad your still posting on here!!
a holiday sounds fab!you could end up with a holiday baby maybe!....hopefully next time round will be better for you as you wont have as much stress around,like you have this time with the house move etc.
so glad your ok.....do keep us updated!! xx

Great to hear from you Go-Go. Sounds like you're coping with things really well, and a holiday sounds like a great idea. If I were you I'd be getting a few drinks knocked into me tonight (I'm sure wine isn't that fattening, is it....?).

Spotty, your statistics are reassuring. I had a scan at 7 weeks, so it sounds like there's a reasonably good chance that everything's OK. There's just this little voice at the back of my mind that say's "you can't be that lucky...". My 12 week scan is on thursday, so looking forward to being able to relax for a little while (fingers crossed!).

I too had a miscarriage recently and still finding it hard but like you Gogo we're planning a holiday and its right they say life goes on, some days its really hard but its getting easier. Can't wait until I can join the first trimester posts again.

how long after a mc do they say you can start trying again?and is there a reson as to why they make you wait?always wondered that....
where is binty?she not been on for a few days."where are ya bints?"i get so worried on here when people dont post for a while!

just stalked her posts and on the im thinking thread it says she's seen her baby yesterday!!!!
*bintyyyyy*.......why did you not tell us?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!have you got a picture?im soooo jealous!!yet again!!i thought it wasn't till the 19th june?

They say theres no reason you can't start trying again straightaway or when you feel up to mentally thinking about that again but do recommend you leave it until you've had at least one period so its easier re dating purposes if you fall pregnant straightaway. Personally I don't feel strong enough yet to think about it as really frightened that if I fall pregnant again and the same things happen I know I'm not ready to deal with that yet.

Missy if you checked your bloody facebook once in a while you'd know the gossip about me!!! :hihi:

I was worried sick so OH got me a last minute scan (£75) and we saw this tiny heartbeat (164bpm), then it was waving and kicking :love: OMG, i was smitten!!! I'm going to find my scanner lead then update some pictures, i only have one at the minute and it's a bit crap cos we had to take it on the camera but here it is - www.igrafikz.com/scan.JPG :) You can see the arm/leg kicking out but i'll do some better pics when i find the lead.

I've cancelled the one for June and will book another one for sometime in July. I'm now not worried :hihi:

aww!!!!look at that ickle baby!!!!
sorry.....dont like to stalk you too much as you might start to notice!!lol!!
im so glad your mind is now put at rest!!!i cant wait for mine on the 8th july...and we'll get to find out what were having!!!seems sooooo long away tho!!
you know,id love to buy a scan machine so i can look all the time...they are around £1500 on e bay!!binty,you could of bought one with the scans!!and offered to scan others and make your money back!!!

Hi there,
Does anyone know anything about ante-natal swimming/aqua aerobics? I'd like to have a go! Also, any other day-time classes anyone could recommend....

Hope you are all OK.

I am off to see the midwife next week and have a scan booked in for the 22nd. I am a bit apprehensive but think it will be very standard!

S

how long after a mc do they say you can start trying again?and is there a reson as to why they make you wait?always wondered that....

Hi - Sorry if I'm butting in but just wanted to say that a reason for waiting is indeed until you have had at least one period after your mc (not the actual loss) is not only so that you know where you are in your cycle etc but it is also so that the lining of your womb can 're-build' to make it more likely to be ready for another pregnancy to implant properly

Hope this makes sense

Good luck :)

Hi - Ask your midwife when you see her - they usually have a list of all classes local to you

Hi gogo glad you have support and are having another hol you jammy thing take care :D

hey all ive got my 1st scan in 2 n half weeks, ppl say im showing aready but im not slim as it is, so i think its fat, but my belly is wobbly at the bottem and hard above the navel, im inly about 8-9 weeks i think, so cant be baby bump, but its so hard, i stil feel sick but not as much and boobs better, still very very tired, need to sleep all the time x

I too had a miscarriage recently and still finding it hard but like you Gogo we're planning a holiday and its right they say life goes on, some days its really hard but its getting easier. Can't wait until I can join the first trimester posts again.

Hi Fooman, so sorry to hear your news. I still have the odd down day but it's better to just go with your emotions and allow yourself to cry/rant/scream if you feel like it! I bottled all my feelings up after my first miscarriage and it really took it's toll on my health, so I'm just taking each day as it comes for now and also finding that it's getting easier to deal with.
I can't wait to be back on here for real either, but it's going to be terrifying!

Gudi - I've just seen your posts too, and my heart goes out to you. I hope you're holding up ok. Big hugs.x

I go for a couple of days and don't get upset when I think or talk about it and then have a day like I did on Friday where looking at Fathers Day cards and starting my period brings it all to a head and I'm a wreck again.

Lets hope we both start a new first trimester thread together soon. pm me if you ever need to talk as you're right you shouldn't keep it bottled up. I think I'm doing ok but you never know!

aww bints!!there's no flab on ya!!reckon i can feel flutters too.when im laid down in bed.
have joined a pregnancy forum but its so fast moving that when i dont go on it for a few hors there are 1500 unread posts!!!!
its helpfull tho!!

Had my 12 week scan yesterday (officially 12 weeks today!). Was fantastic and reassuring to see there is something there is my expanding bump! Came quite close to equalling the previous record for time spent in Jessops waiting rooms - we eventually left almost 3 hours after our appointment time!

wow!!3 hours!!thats right bad!!!should of took some sarnies!!!
anyone else got pics of their bumps?

I'd put a pic of my.. 8weeks (ISH!) bump up but seens as im a size 16/18 its just fat, til about 24 weeks lol!!!!!

Waiting time in jessops gone up again then? With Charlie, I was in for around 1.5/2hrs. Got asked some awful questions too.. Maybe cause I was young.. Who knows! Better pack a picnic then this time :(

did anyone else get tested for carbon monoxide whilst at jessops?
i used to smoke untill i found out i was pregnant....the test was 0-for a non smoker and 30-for a smoker!i got a big fat 0!!yey me!!

I got tested and though I've never smoked, I got a 4, which is towards the higher end for a non-smoker. Apparently, the most likely explanation is the traffic fumes that I breathe in on my way to work every day. Who said walking was good for you.....

I've never heard of them testing for carbon monoxide! I wasn't tested with my son or this time. I was asked if I smoked which I never have so maybe they decided not to bother or it might only just have been brought in.

I didn't get tested :confused:

they tested OH too!!!it was just a nurse who had set up a stall next to the scan room.so maybe she wasn't there all the time.
thought you might of binty cos u were there on same day as me!!maybe she only works half days!!

I can't remember seeing a stall of any sort :confused:

I was tested for carbon monoxide when i had my 12wk bloods at jessops, it was last september. they tested my despite me telling them i've never smoked.

Yeah I got tested too, she was quite offended when i said there was no point as I don't smoke and we have a carbon monoxide tester in house. I did it though cos she made me feel like I was a bad mother if I didn't do it!!!! It was 0!!

I was pretty quick this time, with daughter 2 years ago was there 4 hours!!! Only there 2 1/2 this time.

My due date been changed slightly, 4 days further on due on 21st Dec :D

We didn't have carbon monoxide tests back in September. I wonder if it's something they're doing as a trial.

Anyway, it's good to hear you all cheerful and full of the joys :)

Have a look at my sig...

i heard the heartbeat yesterday on my doppler!!!it was soooooo lovely to hear!!
i was 14 weeks yesterday...only 2 weeks 5 days till my next scan!

hi all ive got my first scan in morning or today lol cant wait,gotta be there at 9am, so hopefully wont have to wait too long, fingers crossed its all good x

today?how did it go?

hi, it went well, im officially 11weeks 2 days, baby due 10th jan, had a scan but she couldnt get measurments, but baby looked brill, had to walk round n drink water for 20 min then go back, didnt work so was laid there having to lift my hips and bang back down on bed until i got the baby to move, it did lol but what an odd experiance, i felt very stupid haha. was bit gutted after coz she could not get good pic for me but oh well, on the first scan the pic was brill if shed taken it then but when baby moved it wasnt playing camera.

anyway all good but wanted to ask all you mums to be did any of you get really bad tummy aches in first trimester?, ive been getting them all week including backache, which makes me not want to move it really hurts, i keep getting told its normal, but it realy doesnt feel it to me, as my other pregnancys were not like this,,

its really getting my down now coz it makes me feel realllly ill like when you get those bad period pains that make you curl up when younger x

They sound completely normal to me hun :)

Congrats!

Hello, I'm new to this thread.

I found out last week that I'm 6 weeks pregnant which I'm really happy to hear as me and my partner have been trying for a while now.

The thing is I had a misscarage in febuary (my first pregnancy) which was the worst experience of my life, made worse by the fact i was admited to hospital so away from my partner straight away.

Now that I'm pregnant again I'm doing nothing but worry, my miscarage wasn't caused by anything, I was told it was 'one of those things' but I can't help but think its going to happen again. It feels different this time, it's like I'm scared to get excited of think about the baby incase something happens.

Is this normal? Has anyone had a similar experience?

Firstly congratulations! I'm 26 weeks pregnant with my second baby but it honestly doesn't feel long since I was just finding out.

I haven't personally suffered a miscarriage but there are many people on here who have and who will be able to offer you support/advice. All I can say is that all I did when I got pregnant with this baby was worry. I wasn't like it with my first baby but he wasn't planned and I didn't know a lot about pregnancy etc. This time I wouldn't let people talk about when the baby would be born etc until I had had my 12 week scan and I felt somewhat reassured.

I think it's completely normal for anybody who is pregnant to worry and especiallly if you have had a previous bad experience. It's been shown that most people who miscarry go on to have a healthy pregnancy so there is no reason why that won't be the case for you.

Have you booked in with a midwife yet? I would do that soon if not as I found talking to my midwife about my worries helpful.

Try not to worry and good luck with everything.

I've been to the doctors and just waiting for midwife to get back to me. Think i'll feel better after the scan too.
