My scan was on 26th March! It was amazing!
I did a post about it on here and on my pregnancy journal. The picture was so clear.

If no one has started the tri 2 post by tomorrow then I’ll set it up. Im not in Tri2 until 9th April but I do check here a lot so I could do that.

Aww that is fantastic I am so happy for you! I bet you are over the moon anbd still on cloud 9! What have they confirmed your due date as? Mine has moved to the 4th October.

Yeah I think you are probably way way better than me at setting it up Im so busy at work at6the moment I have hardly had a moment to have a look on here.

I am going to have a read of your blog.

My scan is on Thursday and I’ve had a panic attack today as I’m
Petrified there will be no heartbeat. I know I’m probably being ridiculous as I am still having lots of symptoms and the sickness hasn’t eased at all, but I’m just so scared after waiting so long to be pregnant. Am I alone with feeling so anxious? The family and friends that know keep saying I must be so excited, but I’m just not. Argh

This is totally normal, the sonographers are really good and thatas the frist thing they reassure you of!

Just try and relax its going to be one of the best moments of your life!

Aww babywomble, I know exactly how you feel. Just remind yourself that you've got this far, so its only a couple more days. If you start to feel panicky, try do something to distract yourself while you breathe slowly. Might sound daft, but when I had cbt for anxiety a few years ago, they recommended trying something like do a maths puzzle in your head - so I would recite 11 or 12 times tables in my head - by the time id get beyond 144, I'd be using my brain to work the maths out and stop the cycle of negative thoughts that caused the panic

I'd say absolutely normal too chick. I have been lucky enough to have had 3 scans now and I only feel reassured for about 3 days, so now I'm back to assuming something has gone wrong. Our minds are so evil!!
Your symptoms are a very very good indication that everything is fine. I'm hoping this next bit makes you feel better but when my first pregnancy stopped growing, my symptoms stopped a few days after that even though my body knew nothing about it for another 3 weeks. Keep that chin up and keep yourself busy until Thursday, is your scan in the morning? xx

I had my scan an hour ago. My lovely wriggly bean finally has a due date - 25th Oct
Have another scan on 16th, as sonographer said they wanted bean to be further along for the nuchal measure, so I get a bonus scan ��

It’s at 11:30am and OH has said he’s taking me for a celebratory lunch as he knows baby is just fine. He’s very good at calming me down. I decided to put music on and have been dancing around the living room while cleaning to distract myself which has helped. Caught the OH laughing at me too 😂

So glad it went well and you got a EDD. Mine is the 12th but I have a feeling we may be put back a bit.

Yesterday I had the pain I experienced at 6 weeks when I was rushed into hospital so I think that triggered my anxiety and the panic attack today. Today I just feel sick and my boobs ache. Sometimes I wish I’d actually be sick, but I’m sure the neusea remains regardless. The other thing I’ll be glad for is being able to announce my pregnancy, I have a bump so i’ve tried to avoid people other than the family and close friends that know lol

Thanks sweetie. It was so surreal seeing him/her stretching and wriggling

Got my letter for my 12 week scan today! 19th April so not long to wait at all

Despite having two scans already this is the biggest one for me as this will settle my mind and reduce my risk of mc if my little bean has clung on in there.

Feeling excited and also terrified!!!
