Good luck for today's scans :o

I had to put my 16 week check back a week so it's next Tuesday, I'll be 17+1. How dare my midwife be on annual leave! She did say if I was desperate I could have my check-up with the GP instead, but I didn't want to seem like a fusspot so I agreed to next week. I'm sure everything is fine, Flump is somersaulting away in there nicely, though I can only feel it when I'm laid very, very still.

Started my pregnancy yoga this week and already feeling the benefit of it (God knows I need calming down the moods I've had this past week, I've been unbearable) and my reusable nappy addiction has begun already... I currently have 5 of them stashed upstairs in varying designs and God above knows how many more on order from Tots Bots for 4 months time when I've paid the rest of the money off for them Blush just can't help myself.

I'm not sure if i'm feeling any movement or not. Hetty what does it feel like? I get like this tickly itch occasionally and most time its on one side of bump area apart from once it was other side. I'm 15+4 with dc1.
I wish I could find pg yoga near to me!!

Hope everything is ok Bear

CaptainHetty · 17/04/2012 13:30

Hope everything is good, bear

Cakes it's kind of hard to describe. It's very subtle, nothing like proper kicks yet. I suppose the butterflies analogy most books use is pretty correct... To me it does feel almost as if there's something very small flittering away in there.

Bear1984 · 17/04/2012 13:36

14 weeks. I know I'm just over reacting and I don't really know much about it but I was just freaking myself out that something could be wrong but noone will tell me yet. It's probably just an infection but I hate having to sit around waiting for the next 2 hours and just worry and thinking it could be really bad :(

McPopcornMouseNFries · 17/04/2012 13:43

Have you not had your 12 weeks scan yet?

LoopyLa · 17/04/2012 13:52

Bear I was going to ask the same question as Mcpopcorn. If you've had the 12 week scan, wouldn't it have shown the baby in the uterus? Wouldn't an ectopic have been picked up by now? I know nothing about these things

It's hard to say try not to worry but maybe try to keep yourself distracted instead? Thinking of you Thanks

McPopcornMouseNFries · 17/04/2012 14:03

Yeah that's what I was thinking loopy - it would have been obvious to the sonographer if it was ectopic.

elvislives2012 · 17/04/2012 16:11

bear at 12 weeks my bean was 6cm and your fallopian tube is MUCH narrower than that so an ectopic would have been picked up a loooong time ago. Panic not, prob a uti. I know its easy to say don't panic tho!
Speaking of panicing anyone had much spotting? I've had it twice and can't stop worrying! Had scans both times which shows no problems tho.
Now have an EDD of 18 but could someone update the list for me? I can't do it on my phone!

Bear,I'm sure everything will be fine.The others are right step away from google!!! I made that mistake a few weeks ago & upset myself something rotten!!!

Kelbells · 17/04/2012 18:10

bear I agree with everyone else.... I hope everything goes well!

Elvis to set your mind at rest, I've not just had spotting but I've been bleeding heavily for 3 weeks (a big fresh bleed once a week and the brown bleeds/spotting the rest of the time) I've had 2 scans and the little one seems totally nonplussed by it all! I've got another scan on Thursday but I've been reassured that once a heartbeat's seen the chances of a bad outcome are very low... I'm sure you'll be fine Grin

LoopyLa · 17/04/2012 20:16

Bear hope everything's ok with you x

I had my scan!! Little sprout (now going to be called monkey as it was being very mischievous!!) was moving ALL over the place, so much so that the poor sonographer took forever to check everything and we were in there for 75 minutes, lol!! Grin DH was more engrossed in the scan than he ever has been in the footie Wink I even had to go for a walk and get another drink, it was really funny. I'm sure it waved at us too Hmm Smile

Got a new EDD so will amend tomorrow Smile

elvislives2012 · 18/04/2012 07:25

LoopyLa · 18/04/2012 07:28

Can't add myself to the list - on my phone and it won't format.

Just had 12 wk scan and am due on 31st October (little monster!) Don't know whether to join Oct, Nov or both to avoid being left behind!

TartyMcFarty · 18/04/2012 11:37

dc2, by the way.

LoopyLa · 18/04/2012 12:38

Yay! Welcome Tarty Grin
