If I hear baby on Doppler around 12 weeks I’m thinking of announcing before scan because of it being so late! I can’t hide my stomach much longer haha! Xx
 
My stomach has gone down now thankfully, it really was all just bloat! Hah!!

When I lie on my back though I can feel my abdomen getting firmer which is reassuring.

I still don't have my scan date through! My county seems to be really behind all of yours! Looking forward to it though, although terrified. Glad I don't have to wait much longer to find out if baby is safe and well.

Have to go and buy my first pair of maternity trousers today. I play in a band and we have a gig today. My regular trousers won't fit me and although I don't have a definable bump, there's no point in me just buying some bigger trousers when I'll need some maternity ones in a month or so anyway so I'm just going to bite the bullet and buy some. My jeans will hold out a bit longer though as they were always big on me.

Feeling pretty good today which is nice! Still a hint of nausea there but it's only background noise. I'm hoping that I'm coning out the other side of it :)
 
Hi all. Hope everyone is feeling well. Just a quick note to say my nausea isn't as bad today yay! Fingers crossed. I made a GP appointment for Monday anyway just in case it comes back with avengence. I'm just getting ready to leave for my scan, eek!
 
Told work he was very shocked but supportive I can now relax!

Well done, at least that’s over and done with now! One less thing to think about.

I’m worried about telling work too but I’ll cross that bridge beginning of June after my 3 month scan, eeek!


Good luck! It's nerve wracking but you feel so much better after saying :)
 
What happens at the booking appointment? I heard it was just paperwork, then I read they do blood tests and smear tests- is that right? That was off a US based site though. Do you get to heat baby’s heart?

Paper work, bloods and urine sample. X
 
I still need to get my bloods done at the hospital at some point next week as I couldn’t get them done during my appointment as had my toddler with me who was wanting held lol! They don’t listen to heartbeat at booking but they do at 16 week appointment :)

Come on Ally! We want the good news :D
 
Scan went well ladies! I'm at work just now and can't seem to upload a photo from my phone. Saw a lovely fluttering heartbeat!!! They dated me 2 days ahead at 8+3 xxx

Aww, that's lovely!

Did they do a normal scan on your belly or did they have to do an internal?
 
Aww really pleased for you!

Hey everyone

There was a mix up with my booking/scan appointment and these have been rescheduled. I have my scan on Monday 14th and the booking appointment the next day. I’ll only be 10+4 on Monday when they do the scan and I’m wondering if this is too early? Will they be able to see much at this stage? Any info is appreciated, thanks!

Hi marli with my dd I had my 12 week scan at 10 weeks 5 days as I didn't know my due date due to being on the pill, everything was fine and they were able to do all the measurements that they do at 12 week scan. That's was 7 years ago so don't no if its changed. Good luck with your scan x
 
Hi Rach

Thank you for your reply! I also did an online search and found some info which says between 10-14 Weeks is about right for the first scan so that’s also reassured me a bit. Thanks again x

I had a scan at 10+3 with my last baby because we weren't 100% sure on dates. They decided to re scan at 12 weeks for the nuchal measurements etc.
 
Thank you p1ngu. I’d also like the NT test done so I think they may ask me to come back at a later date for that too. This is my first pregnancy so everything is new to me and I’m not sure what to expect. Thanks for your reply x
 
Really struggling today thrown up three times and got excessive saliva have to keep spitting it out its horrible I just want to cry :( hoping one I've reached 12 weeks it will go. Any one else suffering with saliva I've tried brushing my teeth and chewing gum but it's not working
