Hi all.

Ive come from "Trying to Concieve" and thought it was time to introduce myself to everyone in the same boat as me :)

To say Im over the moon is an understatement. I thought Id share my story of my journey so far, if it does get too boring just skip this bit! hehe.

About 5 weeks ago I found out I was pregnant. I was taking Norethisterone whilst I concieved. I took a test and sure enough, along with the other 5 they were all positive! Booked to see my DR and he said It should be a false positive as you cant get pregnant on Norethisterone! Few days later with painful cramping I took myself to my local A&E as they have an out of hours DR's attached. The GP told me my DR was rubbish and I was certainly pregnant, 8 and half weeks infact!

Brilliant! So being as impatient as I am I booked a private scan to see what we already called our "bean sprout". My partner was unable to join as he works in estate agency so he needed alot of advance warning. But I was absolutly fine with this. Off for my scan and nothing came up. The only thing she told me was that I had PCOS. My heart broke. She said if you were that far along you would see atleast the gestation sack. I was more worried to be honest about the PCOS. She said ill rescan you in one week and see what we can see. Pregnancy tests these days pick pregnancy up sooo early!

The following week came and I went for the 2nd scan, a horrible internal one! I got so embarrased! As soon as she started a sack came up instantly. Clear as anything. I was infact only 5 weeks. She said wait a week or so and you'll see a little more. So I decided to book a scan for following week and sure enough there was our "bean sprout" along with a heart beat! at only 6 weeks! My fiancee got to enjoy that moment too. I was just saying are you sure that is a heartbeat and thats not just mine!

So here I am now! 7 weeks and 1 day. With heavy breasts and sickness that strikes me at any time of the day, and night! It literally comes within seconds and when my body wants to be sick, wow, Im sick!

So, thats me! Im looking forward to going through all the forums and different posts. I may not post many as Im not experienced on this pregnancy lark or have any advice for anyone else, as Im so early but beware, I always have lots to ask!

Lots of Love

aww! loved reading your story, its lovely here i promise! thinking of going about getting my own scan to see how things are getting on :) good luck to you and a happy nine months xx
 
arr thats so sweet im so pleased u got what u wanted after all the mis-haps! gud luk wit next 7 months x
 
Welcome and congratulations! X x
 
Wow! thats fantastic. I've just been reading your post about getting positive result after taking norethisterone. I was absolutely gutted for you when I read the one about the result of your scan.
So pleased this turned out well for you. My heart sank when I read it.

I'm in similar situation to what you were. I took norethisterone for 10 days ending last week. Tested at the weekend. 3 positive on dipsticks and 1 saying 3>weeks on clearblue digital.

can norethisterone cause anything if taking during pregnancy??

I'm really worried...
 
Aww fantastic news hunny! Wow what a roller coaster ah!! I was just reding your other post about there not being a bean sprout but s/he was obviously hiding!!

Wishing you lots of luck hunny for the rest of your pregnancy xx
 
Welcome, and congrats! A lot of us here are first timers too. I felt the same as you, maybe not good with the advice etc, but as you get further along you'll have a little experience of the earlier weeks and I'm sure you'll be helpful to someone - even if just for a bit of reassurance!
 
aww congrats i had the iternal one 2day lol xx
