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.

Lots of love

Tunnocks I agree with the others, that you should go to A&E. What a horrible insensitive dr and receptionists. As awful as this sounds, like Digi said, better to have it recorded :( You deserve all the help and support they have to offer, and don't let them ever let you think otherwise xx

Wombat great news, and fx for next scan, am sure it will be fine

Digi good luck for later

I forgot to say, I was going to try a semi-runny egg while I was away, but felt too sick when I went near em. Now at the thought of one Confused

sorry, phone playing up. The end of my post was: it felt so rushed it hasn't quite yet sunk in. I think I'm still anxious because of my nucal on monday but I know I'm lucky to have got this far.

Wombat33 · 25/02/2011 09:38

As for my scan. It was very quick! They kept us anxiously waiting for half an hour despite the fact we were on time and the dirt appointment of the day. When we got into the scan room we were there for about 60seconds! She put the probe on my belly, said yes there's a baby, it has a heartbeat and I can't see any bleeding and that was it. Very good news obviously but it felt so st

Wombat33 · 25/02/2011 09:28

tunnocks I second others' suggestions about a&e. If you go to one that has a gynae dept they should be able to see you. Just say you weren't able to get a doc appointment and the pain became too much. Don't in through this alone lovely xxx

hotnspicyonions · 25/02/2011 09:22

tunnocks WTF?!? How insensitive of your doctors?? Can you not just turn up at the surgery & say you refuse to leave until you are seen?? When I went to A&E when I was MC last time (didnt know I was MCing), they asked why I hadn't gone to my doctor. Would have thought docs were there to help you!

Smile wombat

My scan is 11:30 but they'll probably keep me waiting.

digitalgirl · 25/02/2011 09:17

Seriously teacake if you're in pain you can just head to a&e and they'll get you scanned by the gynae dept. It'll take a few hours but it's best to go on a weekday as it's unlikely you'll be seen by a gynae on a weekend. In my second miscarriage I went to a&e and the scan didn't show anything more than a 4-5 sized sac so they took hcg bloods and again two days later to compare. But I at least got the pregnancy recorded on the system so when my third happened there was no question of putting me forward for tests.

Thinking of you teacake.

Good luck today digi.

Yay for a good scan wombat!!!

TMI Question: I have burning (not just when I pee), so I think I've got thrush coming on. Not sure what CD I am but I think its 10 or 11. No signs of ov yet. Should I take a pessary for thrush or stick to a pill? I don't want to miss ov..this sucks because we can't SWI now either!!

Daisybell1 · 25/02/2011 08:46
