July/August 2012 babies

[EmmaN27]

Hi I'm due around the 23rd of July with my first child.

I am freaking out girls because I had to go to hospital with real sharp pains in my stomach 2 weeks ago and they thought I might have been ectopic. They gave me a scan after 4 pregnancy tests and a few blood tests and found that the sac was in the right place but there was no heartbeat. The doctor scanning me made this out to be a really bad thing but the MW called me and said that as I was only 5 weeks at the time then this is normal.

I have another scan on the 23rd of this month and I am sooooo scared there is nothing there

try not to stress too much, I'm sure all will be fine at your next scan as you will be further along and they will be able to see more xxx

Hi everyone

I'm due 7th July but that could change when I have my scan.

Also had my booking in appointment but not met my designated midwife yet.

Theres lots of us that will be moving through the tri's together which will be great!

Oo, I'm due 7th July too!

Had my "12 week" scan this morning, as I thought I was due on 15th June, but according to the baby, we're only 9weeks 3days! Bit gutting as I thought we were past the 12 week mark, but it was just such a relief to see our lil'un and his/her heartbeat!!

I think tiredness has started to kick in, last 2 days I've felt so tired despite going to bed at a reasonable time. Feeling a bit sicky today but not actually been sick. Lots of watery CM the last couple of days. Counting down the weeks now til my first midwife appointment and scan.

How are the rest of you ladies getting on?

Hi girls, thought I would join in the fun. I am 6 + 4, with our first. I had some light bleeding yesterday, obviously panic set in and I went home at lunch, however on checking again when I got home there was nothing. Spoke to Doctor via phone who said it can be quitye normal and maybe an implantation bleed. I stayed off work today just to "rest" just in case.
Apart from that I generally have been feeling well. My appetite has increased however ten-fold; I will eat my breakfast then within an hour or so be sooo hungry. Its crazy. Once I get in bed though I often fee a bit uncomfortable and have been more tired than usual. Im worried about putting on weight - I have already but I am literally starving. This morning I phoned work (it was 6.30am) and thought I would go back to bed but I was so hungry and my tummy was grumbling so much I had to get up. Wierd! Just hope it passes as I do not want to put on ten stone!!!
I have only told our parents, our siblings and my 2 best friends, oh and had to tell Senior leadership team at work. Looking forward to just getting to the scan so it can become more real.

hello everyone i've been given 2nd august as my date, but i reckon that's well early as I only last had a period on 26th october so i can't be THAT pregnant. so far my symptoms are

1. wee alot
2. sleep alot
3. cry more
4. been sick once when i saw a worm on a piece of toast on im a celebrity get me out of here

does anyone else think 2nd august seems like a very soon due date for someone who last had a period on 26th october??

Nope seems right to me pinkjumper, I put ur last period date into pregnology website and it says due date 1st Aug, and ur 6+1 weeks xx

 

[Loubrookes]

Pink jumper - mine was 25th oct (first day) and doc has given me a due date of 1st Aug so it is right. I am sure this will change however at the scan!!

This sounds about right. I had my last period on 27 October and my doctor has said 2 August to me but I think he based that on 28 day cycle and when I've worked it out I think it's 5 August as I know I didn't have a 28 day cycle.

Hey all, I'm new to this forum I went for a private scan yesterday, when I initially went to the doctor she told me I was 8 weeks (would now be 10), but turns out I'm actually only 7 weeks and 2 days! Everything is where it needs to be and there was a wee flickering heartbeat! New due date is 25th July.

Same as me hon, it's not too soon at all

I'm pretty much the same symptoms, although I'm more ratty than weepy and snapping at dh a lot. I sleep more (just woke up from another 2 hour nap) and pee constantly. Not been sick yet, just the occasional wave of nausea.

Apart from that how are you?

Hi hon, any particular reason you told SLT so soon? I don't think I'll be telling til after 12 weeks, as long as I don't get morning sickness too badly between now and then.

We haven't told anyone not even parents yet!! Just getting lots of early scans done to check progress of this wee bean.

11.30 hon. Very excited but staying as reserved as possible just in case it's bad news. I know it's great we've made it this far so I'm proud of our 6 week milestone no matter what happens xx

Because they are my bosses and are fab bosses (all female too) and they are already planning the curriculum for next year. I am Head of a Subject and feel it is only fair to keep them informed. Myself and the Head had already discussed me having children (as I have just got married) and discussed me dropping to 4 days if I ever got pregnant. They of course are keeping it confidential and I would rather them know in case of absence etc in the first 12 weeks. For example yesterday I had to go home as I was bleeding - had I not have told them (there are only 4 of them) I am not sure what I would have said when I had been happy , smily and fine all day up until that point ? They are also an amazing SLT who are very down to earth and understanding and whilst it is early felt they should know. But thats just me. No other staff know, not even my best mate at work - although I am going to struggle at the Xmas do next Sat when usually Im top of the list for drinking

leesey - are you paying private then for your scans???xx

leesey - are you paying private then for your scans???xx

Yeah, but the one I'm going to isn't too expensive, it's only £20 for an early scan! If it was the usual £100-odd pounds I'd never be able to afford it.

I'm hoping to get a scan at EPA as well, because of my rpl history xx

Look like I will have a later August baby!!
