Hello!

Newly updiffed and freaking out about spotting, cramping, the wait until your first scan and each little twinge? Settle in for lots of hand holding and supprt until you're ready to move to grads

Thanks digi

hairylights · 11/02/2011 11:48

Thanks jjolls . this one isn't as hard to cope with as I had good warning of it last week. I am never having another six week scan though! I could have done without the week I've had.

The lovely doctor (best so far) was great ... And says I must not presume it's age ... She sees more and more women giving birth in their forties.

They'll now test for chromosomes and clotting issues.

I'll get amh test done either via gp or privately.

But we won't ttc again now until we have test results.

hairy Sad so v v sad to hear that.

SameOldJollster · 11/02/2011 11:40

hairy am SO sorry :(
I know how you are feeling (if that's not too presumptuous, I just mean hitting the 3).

I know you'll need time away for a while, but we'd love to see you back on the 40+ thread if you feel able.

Take care x

hairylights · 11/02/2011 11:26

Bad news from me I'm afraid. Missed miscarriage, sac had only grown to 9mm. I am medically managing and will be referred for tests now I've had the required three mc.

Thanks to all of you for holding my hannd.

Wishing you all happy pregnancies and sticky beans

DachshundsWantPuppies · 11/02/2011 10:44

I know it's scary but I'm sure you'll be fine and see bean squirming away nicely Grin

Anyone got any ideas on how to capture zen?

Mama I have had 4 scans now with this bean and up until this one today have cried and not slept the night before in sheer terror! You have great symptoms am sure it will be fine xx

Owls... Twin !!! Also interestingly with anterior
R placenta there is more chance of a bleed!

Mamapower · 11/02/2011 10:05

Gosh, all those lovely messages for us 3, made me shed a little tear, it's so great to know you are all there as I don't mind admitting that I'm petrified (you know that washing machine feeling you get in your tummy when you're so nervous) and right now 1.15pm seems like an age away.

Nix Amazing news Grin now back as you were with the r&r and enjoy the flicks Smile

lovemysleep · 11/02/2011 10:05

Brillian news Nicks, and wishing lots of luck to everyone else having scans today x

Wombat33 · 11/02/2011 09:53

Dachs - it's growing a mm a day apparently at your stage so it'll be significantly bigger already today!

DachshundsWantPuppies · 11/02/2011 09:49

yay nix! and good luck everyone else with scans today

mine feels rather small at 1.3mm compared to all yours!

Wombat33 · 11/02/2011 09:42

Whoop Nix 8cm - wow!!! That's fab news!! I'm with Bee I can't even imagine it getting that big Smile mine on monday was 2.3cm Smile

Good luck orange, hairy and mamap xxx

owlbooty · 11/02/2011 09:40

Nix Hoorah! Also, oooh, we have matching anterior placentas which is v.useful to know about up front as should prevent 'omg I can't feel it moving' stresses. T'will be interesting to see who feels movement first but I bet it will be you. Grin Still think you should milk it and put feet up some more Grin

Ladybee · 11/02/2011 09:23

Hooray nicks that's great 8cms - gosh can't even imagine that - mine last time was 8mm Grin
good nothing leaking etc.

Really hoping for good news from all the others having scans today. Hope the waits are short and the results are reassuring.

pink hope you're doing ok with heparin - I find it a completely mixed bag. Some days totally fine, others I end up with a nasty bruise. But it's part of the routine now.

nickstermum · 11/02/2011 09:12

Hola

Scan perfect
Measuring 8.7 Cms bang on for nearly 15 weeks
Plenty of fluid around baby
No leaks
Placenta on the front wall of uterus so may not feel movements til much later.

Happy day xxxx

PinkFondantFancy · 11/02/2011 08:27

Oh also silly no experience of those hospitals personally but there is a thread in conception on MC testing full of helpful ladies that should be able to give you some pointers

PinkFondantFancy · 11/02/2011 08:24

Just wanted to pop in and say good luck to orange hairy mamap and nix today.

mamap don't think you should worry-if they can't see enough detail abdominally they'll prob send you for a wee and then do internal.

emoo with you on the haribo!!! Even the thought of chocolate revolts me though unless it's a mini egg or Creme egg weirdly.

silly so sorry you're having a tough time, really hope things sort themselves out quickly and that you're back here soon.

Wombat33 · 11/02/2011 08:04

morning peeps! Thinking of all those with scans today xxx

PrettyVacant1 · 11/02/2011 08:02

Morning Luvvlies.
Good luck for today Mamap HairyMary and Orange sending all my soooper doooper UHU groovy vibes to where ever you may be . Xx

Cal I'm so sorry about your loss sweets, please message me if you want an ear.
This is my 7th preg.
Hope to see you back here very soon, love x

Have to run, work calling. Boo.
Waves to all and have a fab Fri xx

Mamapower · 11/02/2011 08:02

Orange Hairy see you both back here later with lots of good news Smile

nix I missed that, are you being re-scanned?

Thanks all for virtual hand holding... extra scared this morning, probably cause dh isn't here

silverangel · 11/02/2011 07:20

Just wanted to say good luck to everyone having scans today x

OrangeGloss · 11/02/2011 03:37

Good luck to Hairy and Mamap ... and Nix having a scan today too?

Sorry for being selfish but I can't sleep :( most of it is sickness, but I'm sure I'm like the others absolutely shitting it about today. I've been clinging to the one good sign that MS is getting worse not better, started puking after dinner as well as morning. 3 times yesterday

Thanks for all the kind wishes Grin

hairylights · 10/02/2011 22:46

Just popping by to wish orange and mamap all the best of bestness for tomorrow.

tonythetyger · 10/02/2011 19:58

Dachs - congratulations! I hope the next one is even better.

Emoo · 10/02/2011 19:50

nix glad you've had a quieter day today!

wakari welcome and congrats on your bfp. I hope the spotting turns out to be nothing serious, but it's inevitable you will compare and stress and panic!! That's what we're here for.

As for me, things very boring at the mo. No symptoms still. Could murder a bag of haribo!!
