May 2017 Mummies *NEW*

They didn't take any blood at any of my booking in appointments before.

When I was pregnant with Cam, they took it after scan.

I've just finished filling out all my notes and forms - took aaaaaages!!

Had a little go on the Doppler earlier. Found hb really clearly this time and got a good recording on my phone too.

I feel really emotional today. I know it's probably hormones but I asked OH what his mum said about the scan pics and he said she loved them but she said she isn't letting herself get too excited. This really annoyed me, I am 11 weeks, the sonographer said everything looked perfect. What else does she want. She said the losses affected her! Well boohoo, I am the one that went through it, not her!! I just want people to be positive. I said from the off that I didn't want to hear one negative thing about this pregnancy. It makes me feel like she is just waiting for things to go wrong. Has really hurt my feelings. Plus my OH then tells me he will likely go to the pub tomorrow. I am on my own all day feeling like poo, can't even leave the house but he will go out and then feel rough on Saturday! Oh hormones!! Sorry for the moan :( xx

aw lisey men can be inconsiderate sometimes! as for OH's mum that is so out of order to make you feel like that! she should be more positive didn't OH say anything to her??
 
He did. He said to her that it's not about her. Think he was annoyed. I would have rathered he not told me what she said. I am feeling extra sensitive today I think :( xx
 
yeah I know sometimes it's better off not knowing even though he was honest with you :( hope your feeling better soon x
 
Thanks. I will be good after a good sleep I expect xx
 
My mum's been on the whole rollercoaster with me she went to my last 2 scans and bueat into tears both times she was just as nervous as me but she is also so happy. Losses do affect many people but if you're excited and happy they should reflect that surely. Mind you I've not involved my mum in law too mucheap she found out I was off with morning sickness and said that only happens in the mornings and maybe if I ate healthier I wouldn't be as bad then started talking about cabbage stew I nearly showed her my version of cabbage stew lol but luckily hubby was like "that's so cruel!" But she had no clue lol. She's a lovely woman just a bit crazy at times lol.

It's great you feel positive and the last thing you need is someone who makes you feel insecure again.. 11 weeks isno different to 12 weeks , she probably doesn't know half of the statistics and info we all know. She is also being very selfish and just thinking of her own feelings.. People are odd! Best not to expect too much from certain people either!

I hope u feel better today xx
 
I agree with what lou said. Sometimes it's best to seek solice in those who are equally as happy and let the kit so happy people wash over you. I'm sure she'll get more excited and happy for you soon x

Thanks ladies. I know it would have made her sad when we had our losses but like you say Lou, it seems selfish to have that attitude.
I said to OH, I have pretty much had the 12 week scan, some people have it at 11 weeks. I just wonder when she will allow herself to be excited. Being positive has really got me through and yesterday it just put it all right down.
Today is another day, hopefully will feel better. Hope all my May Mummy friends are good xx

Morning :)

im here!! everything went well saw the little heartbeat i have another scan in 2 weeks as i have a follicle coming from both ovaries but they can only see one baby at the minute!!

but i still find myself googling the chances of miscarriage i have a pain in my tummy, but i dtd this morning so i think it may have just upset things up in there!

xxx
 
Yayyyy so happy. I have some mild tummy cramps but erm...think it's toilet related! Dtd can cause mild cramps too. I wonder if you have a second hiding somewhere!
 
Fab new Hun x I had loads of pain from 5 weeks until 9 ish, think it might have been trapped wind or constipation or stretching pains. It could be your follicles?? X
 
i had the same feeling yesterday after she did an internal scan as if shed gone that bit too far or applied too much pressure.

i do get this feeling often, after DTD even before i was pregnant but you just cant stop worrying.

one little baby would be amazing but two would be something else lol xxxx
 
morning girls had my booking in. I'm so happy after 2 c sections and endless amounts of problems in my last pregnancies and being consultant led I can still have a natural birth and a birth in the birthing pool :D just waiting for my bloods and then get my scan date!
 
Lol. I've said it before twins terrify me lol I'm glad I've only got one in there. The midwife said yesterday there's still a chance I've got 2 as I've only had quick viability scans so far not a big look around and my hcg is rather high lol but it was high with my son and they said the same things with him and also that he was going to be huge but he wasn't and he was just one. Lol
 
Yay nikki. My son was a water birth and in hoping this one is the same. I was very paranoid at first coz they told me I didn't have to remove my underwear when I first got in. At one point i asked "but won't it bounce back in if I keep them on!!!" :doh: lol I also still have the nighty I gave birth to my son in. I'm hoping to wear the same one this time!
