**May Mummies**

Just got back from gp for the tonsillitis. Not enough 'puss' to do anything about yet apparently. Have to wait and see. Wish I'd never bothered going completely disregarded my swollen and painful neck glands . Debating on phoning in sick tonight. In so much pain Xx
 
@TTC no2
Good luck with scan this morning!

@maythe4thbewit
Really? GP sounds useless! If you are in pain surely that should be treated with medicine? Did he recommended anything? Take a sick day and have some rest at home. How many sick days are you allowed?
 
I had appointment with midwife this morning. I will be consultant led. She said it's because my son was born a month early. I don't really mind.
Now I'm awaiting a letter in post to find out when is my scan! She said around early November.
 
I'm measuring 6+1 .... but I know my dates.. puts me more than a week behind. There is a heartbeat though. Go back 2weeks. Never measured behind before on any early scans. She said not to worry it's common. But bit hard not to be anxious.

Hi guys. Been phone dr turns out i will be consultant lead now???? Not sure really what this means?
She said i can take 75mg aspirin anyone do this / done this? Are there bad things in taking aspirin vs not?
 
@TTC no2
Maybe you ovulated later than you think?

@soffphie
I'm consultant lead too. It means more appointments and more scans. I also take aspirin 75 mg. It's good for placenta. Do not worry. I'm consultant lead cause my son was born premature 1 month early. Do you know your reasons?

Not really no. I can guess its because i had a miscarriage before?
I will prob do the aspirin then
 
Pretty sure off dates. I tested positive for ovulation bank holiday 26th August. We did the deed that morning and that was it. So I was expecting to be 7 weeks at the minimum. That's giving me the 24-48hours for ov from that positive test to ovulate. I then positive pregnancy test 5th September. Going by that scan date I wouldve tested positive from conception which impossible. This could go either way for me now. Baby can catch up and all will be fine or go back 2 weeks and il have had mmc. I'm keeping open mind and what will be will be. But it's the waiting to find out is annoying.

You wouldn’t be consultant led for a previous miscarriage, miscarriage is extremely common, I had two and wasn’t consultant led, there must be another reason which surely you need to know about so I would get on the phone to your midwife and ask them if I where you x

Call you doctor and ask may be? I'm struggling to eat too. One moment I'm craving jacket potato, cheese and beans. Next minute I can't even look at it. Next morning I crave musli and now I can't even look at it. I've got heartburn all the time. Hope be both feel better. x
 
@maythe4thbewit I had a useless gp here too, had the exact same problem with my daughter I got so mad as she was in pain and he wouldn't do anything, I put my foot down and told him either hes going to help or I'll be placing a formal complaint and going higher up. Although we had quite a few mishaps with him (he resigned not to long ago, woohoo!) Hope it settles down for you quickly though, not a nice feeling to be stuck with :(

@TTC no2 I really hope everything works out for you in next two weeks, fingers x

@soffphie at least you will be taken care of and watched more closely being consult led, I'm taking it that its the same as nz with the hospital/obstetrician being my first point of care and my midwife is just in between?

I'm counting down to my next scan now, my symptoms keep coming and going, I'm nervous but what will be will be.. I'm taking my dad with me (he's more excited than me I'd say) so he'll be good support at least.
Things have gone pretty down hill with my partner and hes just making me constantly mad doing stupid sh*t and just blaming it on being overwhelmed and depressed. He doesnt want to discuss or hear anything baby related what so ever because I disregarded his opinion and he thinks I'm stuffing up our future. I'm over it and almost ready to leave him, I understand he has alot else going on in his life but I raised our daughter alone for the last 10 years while hes been a holiday parent so I feel like I'm just going to do it alone again anyway, least then I wont have the negative crap from him trying to weigh me down. I'm really trying to hope he will change but he wont even go to a lawyer to fight to see his other son from his ex, he just complains and gets depressed, is it rude of me that instead of supporting him I think about leaving him? I can be very opinionated and jump the gun sometimes... I'm very emotional and overwhelmed really..

He is really trying to be caring and loving lately but I feel like its too late.. he wants us to go away for a weekend to spend time together but all I can think of is paying bills, looking after my girl and getting prepared for babies
 
@Countrylife
Im very sorry your partner is not very supportive. I really hope he changes before your babies arrive. Maybe its a good idea to go somewhere on weekend just to spend some time together?
 
Scan tomorrow afternoon. Geez I am feeling sick with nerves. @TTC no2 thinking of you and got everything crossed all will be good in a couple of weeks xx
