Olivia sorry to hear about ur experience x
Flick good luck for tomorrow and keep us all updated x
AmyThomas same EDD as me x
I am still feeling rubbish I think today is the worst I have felt so far sick wise and I keep sneezing and getting a blocker nose.

Aww, the scans are coming through thick and fast now! Great pics everyone and all the little terrors are well and good!

Went in to book my 16 week appt with the midwife, so not for another 3 weeks. She was fully booked! I remember last time they would ask me to book in for the following week and there was never any space but 3 weeks away! I'm going to have to pre book them all now I think...had to book it for the next week when I will be 17+2.
That cemented my decision for a gender scan, so now have a private scan for when I'm 16+4 - eek!!

 

[Olivia118]

I have just realised some of us will be tri2 next week!!!!!

Glad everyone's scans have been going well

My symptoms seemed to completely disappear (apart from heartburn)

How many scans are there to go now? I've lost track!

 

[DigitalCity]

My scan isn't until April 11th It feels like ages away, I might try and get a private scan for this weekend because I'm visiting family next week and want to tell them the news in person (they're 3 hours away). I'm so excited for tri 2, it's my favourite part of being pregnant

 

[Cazzie11]

Had my scan today, it went really well. Baby is now due on the 3rd and it was wriggling away!

One thing though, the sonographer (who was brilliant, she talked about everything she could see, amazing!) but there was time when she pressed quite hard and I almost yelped in pain! I now feel really sore, almost like a hernia! Hope everything's ok down there! X

 

[Olivia118]

Cazzie we are due on the same day! Exciting

Digitalcity I hope the wait is quick for you!

Xx

You'd think seeing as I haven't drunk alcohol for 8 weeks and I have the whole bed to myself (well, human wise anyway) I would be able to get a fairly decent nights sleep and should leap out of bed in the morning all refreshed like a Disney character. But no. I'm fully awake again at 0500 with a cat climbing on me and alerting me to my full bladder, and I feel as though I've sunk a fair few glasses of wine without the joy of doing it. And today i have to travel for work meetings and look like I'm bothered. Urggghhhhh

Anyway, good luck on the scan today Flick x

 

[Flick9670]

Thank you, am nervous, just hope all is ok, don't think I will have my eyes open until I hear a heart beat just in case, hate that pity stare!! Barely slept last night, mind you we got a puppy last week and he doesn't help with sleeping, certainly getting us ready for the arrival (hopefully all being well of course!) anyway I will let you all know when I am back, by the way, if all goes ok, how do I upload a photo, I tried to do a profile pic but it said my photo was too big!! xx Have a good day all

 

[AmyThomas]

Will you get to hear the heartbeat? I don't think I will until the 16week check with midwife. My scan was just measurements, checking all the right bits were there, and seeing the heartbeat.

 

[Flick9670]

Oh ok, I can't remember from 11 years ago I thought you could hear the heart beat at the first one, at the last one there was no heartbeat so I assumed that was the first sign it had gone wrong? Thats good to know then at least I wont panic now when I hear nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x

 

[Olivia118]

I didnt hear a heartbeat, just saw it briefly on screen....would have liked to have seen it for longer!!!

To upload a picture I click on go advance (next to post quick reply) then there's a paperclip icon.....I clicked on that and uploaded the picture straight from my phone. But I have also had the "the file is too big thing!!" My scan picture is the only picture I've successfully uploaded!

 

[lea554]

I've just received my screening tests through the post, not bad, 6 days after the scan, and I'm low risk for any of the 3 disorders (can't remember their names!). I can't make head or tail of all the results on the page, but they have highlighted low risk for me, which is all I need to know!

 

[Olivia118]

Yay! Good news lea. I was just wondering how long till mine come through! Hopefully by end of next week x

 

[Flick9670]

All wentgood, am 13+1 so due 4th October now! Baby was too busy floating round so they couldn't get a clear picture of the neck for the tests so got to go back at 15 weeks for them! Just so thankful it's all ok!

 

[ladybugs90]

Hi all, I had my 12 week scan today but only 11 +3 so will have to go back as they couldn't take the measurements. Due date now 16th October good luck all to who haven't had theirs yet! Not long until 2nd trimester now!

 

[Heather1981]

Aww glad all ok with all the scans.
Another bonus scan ladybugs90
I have been so sick. After lunch yesterday I felt so unwell then I started vomiting and can't keep even water down I tried some toast last night but no that came back up then I was sipping water and that. And back up I had blood through it as I have been retching so much!
I ended up sleeping on sofa last night so my husband could try get some sleep but also easier and quicker. For me to get to bathroom.
So the last thing I ate which stayed down was my breakfast yesterday morning and now I am to scared to try toast again as I haven't been sick since this am.
I made my little boys lunch and that was making me feel sick ��

 

[Flick9670]

Sounds like a bug?? Maybe see if you can get a call with the doctor?? xx

 

[Vickilou25]

So lovely to see all the scans! Can't wait for mine on Wednesday!!

 

[Heather1981]

If I was sick anymore then I would of called docs. I have just had some dried toast and actually enjoyed it I just be hungry lol
Hopefully that stays down.
At first I thought is this pregnancy symptoms but is a bit strange to actually start being sick and the amount of times so think it is a bug. I hope I feel better later as I really need to go to work tomorrow

 

[Allysa151]

Wow, so many scans and good news , I am so happy for everyone xx lovely pics

Just couple of days until Tuesday for mine I am so excited, hope all is well. I get many strange cramps in my belly during the day, different from any before.

So who is going first to the 2nd Trimester? We will be finally able to put all our dd. Still can t believe it's happening until I will see my scan.
