aww thanks!! the pic did make me laugh - dont know what the old legs are doing!! bet you cant wait for your scan.... eek!!! do you think my baby looks like a girl or a boy??? xx

I'm terrible at guesses so I'll just say 'baby' haha.

I'm terrified. I have generalised anxiety disorder and a history of miscarriage. So my brain keeps trying to persuade me that I'll get there and there will be bad news. Even though there have been zero incidents so far that cause me to believe that. All I can do today is play games, read and try to relax.



After I've been to the pharmacy for heartburn meds since they refused to serve Rob without me there

Awwww everything will be fine!! It will be amazing for you xxx I will send lots of hugs and luck over to you, what time is the scan is it in the morning? I can't wait to hear how you got on and see some scan pics! Maybe have a nice relaxing bath and an early night, tomorrow will be here before you know it xxx

11.30 if I remember right. Plan is to relax with a book and have a nice shower before bed. Our bath is too shallow to enjoy.

TS - I worked myself up so much before my scan, it really was ridiculous!

Hope it goes well xxx

How's everyone doing?

Still feeling super tired here at 15w2d. I'm back to work next Monday so hopefully will be feeling a bit better by then!

Also still getting such bad headaches x

 

[BabyRuth]

Hi Wednesday! Thanks for your gender guess, I think I'm more steering towards girl too... I don't know why I'm thinking it tho lol xx
Have you been suffering a while with headaches? I've started with them over the last few days and today has been the worst! Currently under a duvet on the sofa watching emmerdale think il be in bed by 9pm I never get headaches! Xx

Ty. Staying calm as much as possible.
I have no instructions though. Didn't get a letter. So no idea on bladder fullness etc.

I always get awful angst before my scans (and I've had at least 12 with my successful pregnancies).. I think it's quite natural.

Personally I've never needed a full bladder (not even for an abdominal scan at 7 weeks) but I reckon I have a pea sized bladder
Maybe don't pee for a bit before and take some water in case you need to top up.

Best of luck and enjoy.

Ahhh sorry to hear that!

Well mine only started a couple of weeks ago, but I'm getting them most days and it's making my miserable! I've been off work last week and this week on annual leave, so dreading going back next week and having to function while feeling like this!

 

[BabyRuth]

Hi Wednesday thanks for your message, oh no maybe I'm going down the same route with my headaches! Started around 13 weeks.. hope you feel better soon! Xx

TS- good luck with your scan today!! Enjoy �� xxx

BabyRuth what a lovely scan picture!

Ts.. good luck with your scan today!!

Another one with the headaches here! A few have turned into migraines (it's the reason I've not been on for a few days) not feeling to bad this morning so thought I would check in with how everyone is doing x

yesterday I had my midwife appointment and have just discovered I am O negative blood group. Well I was balling my eyes out as panic set in.

Apparently I am due for D Injections to protect the baby incase our bloods mix.

I did some research when I got home and found that it's not such a high risk during first pregnancy unless I fall/have an accident/injury and bleed internally. However it is very high risk during subsequent pregnancies.

Ive had a migraine due to the stress as I am a stress head. I feel a little worried but thats mainly due to my own insecurity of something happening.

Other than that, blood results were very good.

Now that I understand how emotionally toiling this is, I wish all of you other ladies a peaceful, non emotionally draining pregnancy.

We as mothers go through SO MUCH. It starts right from conception

I refuse to cry.

She had to press pretty hard because baby was really low and comfy. As soon as she did we saw our little prawn jump almost the full height of my uterus. I kid you not. Prawn pretty much danced. After that he/she was waving constantly.

Heartbeat was strong and very obvious. Nuchal fold 1.3 which is really good afaik. There's one healthy looking little baby in there.

However... I'm only 11+5 and EDD is now 1st March. I don't want to leave though and I'm having csection so I will be a Feb mummy. So meh.

Pics when I get home.
