Aww lovely when is that? I'm still waiting for my midwife to call me xx

Hi girls! All went well today upped my metformin and taken booking bloods. Still not heard from my community midwife but I won’t see her anyway to be honest x

@holli I know the feeling! I’m going to take my last digital next Saturday.

Still not getting any real symptoms at the moment. I’ve had a couple of tiny spots of pink but TMI I am a little sore wondering if I’ve got a bit of thrush as I suffered with that last time. Think it’s linked to the diabetes I can’t seem to control my fasting levels at the moment x

Yeah unmanaged sugar levels can cause thrush. Hope it settles soon xx

Bloods are 20th will be 9 weeks i think and midwife is via video call on the 25th (due to Covid).. going to have a consultant led pregnancy anyway so i guess thatl happen after the initial appointment?!

Exciting times, it will soon be here, I was consultant led with my daughter, so possibly will be again this time, I didn't have bloods done tho with my daughter not sure if that's an area thing? Xx

Whoa! This thread has really taken off--so glad to see all these newcomers! We had a slow start, but wound up with a pretty big November contingent. I think I added everyone to the first post, but let me know if I've forgotten anyone.

Holli, was particularly touched to hear of your getting the news after your dad passed. I'm sorry for your loss, and hope this new blessing will comfort you and your family!

We told my parents and in-laws this weekend. It will be first grandchild on both sides, so they are pretty psyched. Both my mom and MIL also told me they each had one pregnancy (of two) with almost no first trimester symptoms at all, which made me feel a little less worried that I'm still feeling so comparatively normal (I have tender boobs, am more tired than usual, and have had some increased vaginal discharge, but no real nausea).

@Maza1993 exciting! It feels like you are so far ahead of me! I don’t imagine I’ll hear off the midwife anytime soon I’ve bypassed her myself in order to get better care for the diabetes. I think if I’d waited like last time I’d have MC again as my levels are haywire x

I do think things vary depending on the area of the uk your in, i have high BP had it with my first which led to emergency c section and now on metaformin for pcos so those reasons for consultant led. But seems like everythings changed 3 years on... midwife meeting via zoom (will be interesting)

I did referral last week so when I hear I hear I suppose.

Will your fertility clinic have much involvement after the early scan @Maza1993?
