mumma really pleased about your scan

deige good to see you back. Can't believe you find out the sex so soon. Best of luck with the nuchal tests. I find out my blood results on Thurs but the nuchal fold was 1.3mm so I am hoping for more good news.

hav wildly you've only put on 1/2 pounds. I've put on another 3 pounds in 2 days please be water retention please be water retention

dizzy no line yet but I got one at 15 weeks when preg with dd

echo sorry you are still getting spotting, hope it stops soon but as long as its just spotting you should be ok.

honey best of luck for you and your oh. Really hope he gets his head round this soon.

misstweed I don't know about measles. I'm assuming I'm immune but haven't thought about it.

BCG was tuberculosis... MMR is the measles one x

One & Lovely that's such sad news, I'm so sorry for you both, it's so unfair xx

Oh Busy I'm sorry you're feeling that way about tomorrow, I hope you have the support to get you through it.

MP that's lovely news about the scan, can't wait for my next one when there's something that actually resembles a baby to see!! the flume - wish I had me one of those!

MissT what a palava. I hope it didn't hurt too much.

Good luck for tmr Boy & great news on your heart beat Ariel.

Are you happy with the decision to try again Honey? I really hope it works out this time.

I'm starting to get nervous now too as at my 6 week scan splodge measured 2mm which by the sounds of things is way too small but my dates are defo right, I know exactly when we dtd. There was a heartbeat but the whole size thing is starting to play on my mind.

Mega sicky day today, had to run out of two meetings, was nearly sick on the train & am still feeling sick now (with lots more sick in between). Bleurgh 10+4 & still waiting for my scan date!!!

If it makes you feel any better saundy I'm 12 wk 4 and still haven't received my nhs scan date. If it wasn't for the private scan I would have lost the plot by now. Sorry you are feeling so sick.

Sorry to hear you are still experiencing spotting Eco - hopefully it is just 'one of those things' - how many weeks are you?

Nurse today said mine might be breakthrough bleeding, or old implantation blood. It's still there today but I think the internal ultrasound dislodged a bit.

I'm sorry to hear your news lovelylara - do take care of yourself and best of luck for the future.

Saundy I have just read (thanks to google) that by 6 weeks the developing foetus should be 2-4mm long so that would mean your measurements at 6 weeks fall into the "norm"? I don't know too much about it but just did a quick google.

What is breakthrough bleeding? Does that mean from be lining of the womb? Sorry if that's such a simple question

im fine with giving it a go. hes got issues he must sort though and im going to remain partial til he does, not allowing myself to get close again til he proves himself.

now my best mate has just texted me saying in no uncertain terms our friendship is over now ive taken him back. :'( i feel so betrayed, ive been there for her through thick n thin, whenever she needed a place to stay the night after a bust up wiv a bloke or if shes locked herself out or something. when shes had a break up, lost a baby etc ive been there. and just like that, im gone. just cos she hates my oh. seriously fed up

Oh honey that's all you need right now. Is your friend maybe worried about you? You can't live your life by other people's ultimatums though. If your sure oh is who you want to be with then your friend should be there for you

i know i feel shortchanged, shes been with men who are much much worse, cheaters, druggies, even one who hit her, but never have i judged her for it x

I believe that breakthrough bleeding is bleeding when your period would be due? Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!

One and Lovely - so so sorry to hear your sad news. Nature can be so cruel, be kind to yourselves. I hope you'll be able to pick yourselves up again quickly after this ordeal. Take good care! *

Diege Good luck tomorrow! Hope you'll be able to get around London easily, with the funeral happening. I would say I don't envy you, but I do

Saundy I think it's really difficult to date a pregnancy this early. Do you know when you ovulated? Because the date(s) on when you dtd don't necessarily mean that that's the date your egg got fertilised. Sperm can hang around up to 7 days...

Well, I'm still bleeding, although it seems to have slowed down a little bit. But it's still bright red, quite watery, and I'm getting really bad back pain. One more day until I find out for certain what is going on
I think I might try and have a quiet day tomorrow, ended up doing lots of things today. But it feels good to keep busy... Trying to think of what I can bake tomorrow - today I made ciabatta and ginger shortbread. Maybe I'll try focaccia, never done that. Or a nice cake... The problem with that is that I'll end up eating it

I'm so sorry OneLittle and Lovely. I hope you are on another bus soon.

I'm so jealous of all of those going for scans. Can't afford a private one due to the costs of moving house next week. Only another 4 weeks! I feel so so grotty though. Just miserable with nausea all the time. My boobs are humongous and I'm knackered. I cannot wait for the "blooming" second trimester.

Oh and I have a horrible blocked nose all the time and have post nasal drip which makes nausea even worse. Any tips on dealing with it?

Good luck with all the scans today ladies

Whenshewas - have you chased the hospital about your scan? Are you planning on having downs screen done? If so it has to be done before 14 weeks (someone pls correct me if I'm wrong) (and potentially your EDD could be brought for forward....) As its part of the NICE guidelines to offer everyone screening now they have to see you within that time frame or they'll be in for some serious arse whipping!! Might be worth mentioning "NICE guidelines" if you phone to chase.

Thanks When & Harv panic over! I'm easily pleased haha.

JB I didn't realise sperm could stick it out for 7 days!! I thought 3 tops, no clue as to ov day so that could make sense & if its sperm that's been chillin out in there for ages then it MUST be a girl!!! I hope you manage your nice relaxing day today, I'm pleased its slowed down. Mmm freshly baked bread though - the one thing we could all eat!

MsFP I'm the sniffly same, it's rubbish, no tips here just sympathy.

Honey that's really rubbish about your friend. I admit I've done something similar but it was under much more extreme circumstances. It was someone who was in a very physically abusive relationship & I was the only person who knew - thanks to regular calls at 4am begging for help when I was powerless to in a different part of the country. Anyway after a particularly extreme incident they split & I did say if you get back together I'm telling everyone everything. They did, I did & it didn't go down well. My point is it came from a place of love so don't write off the friendship, let her calm down & then talk about it.

I haven't actually spoken to DP since Sunday - over something quite small. He lied to me about something stupid, I called him on it & he tried to lie his way out of lying (he'd been out & was a bit pissed at the time). I told him to not speak to me until he was ready to be honest & we haven't spoken since! I know we're both being stupid & stubborn but godammit he should come to me!! Lots of pressure over losing his job & the pregnancy etc. But I've been so ill & he hasn't even checked if I need anything. So fed up.

Morning everyone,

Good luck to all those having scans today.

Yesterday at work I had a bit of a panic. We have a ladies loo with a dodgy flush and as I was busting for a wee I couldn't hold onfor me to flush until all the loo roll had gone. Anyway after I'd had my wee I flushed and noticed that some of the loo roll had blood stains, you an imagine my heat rate went up etc. anyway had a quick wipe as you do and it was ok and subsequent wipes were ok, I'm guessing the last lady to use it was on her af.

Sorry for the ramble but looking back its made me giggle.

morning

i cn understand that, as he was getting abit controlling and overjealous. but she lost her child cos she werent bringing him up right, but didnt fight to get him back and instead, moved in with the bipolar man shes cheating on, who threatens to beat her up on a regular basis. so i really dont think she has the right to judge me for trying to work on my relationship with my babies father. she hates oh and vice versa. i just wish theyd keep me out of their childish feuds.

good luck to those having scans today

Good luck fellow scanners, hope we all get good news! Mines in 1 hr & I'm scared!!!!!

Good luck to those with scans today.

Saundy regarding sperm, that's what the nurse suggested as per my dates being earlier than I thought - she said that if I ovulated late and the sperm were hanging around then possibly implanted later than I thought. Nothing to worry about I'm sure, and dating that early is not accurate (that's what I'm telling myself!)

Good morning ladies, hope you are all well. I am feeling particularly lazy today, have had terrible wind pains last night and its finally rectifying itself this am. I suppose this is a reminder of what our DS/DD's will be going through with colic. Could have done without it though as I have my last meeting as a student rep today! And I am struggling to get myself sorted to take DD to school let alone drive to Cambridge :/

I think DH is falling in love with the bump, he keeps touching and stroking it' gets very cuddly and lovey dovey when he is...and is looking for a safer car as his is a very old car with no air bags! Obviously this is his first child (my 4th), its just amazing to see the change in him!

Good luck boymeetsworld.... If your able to read this now you are probably sitting in the waiting room trying not to wee yourself after drinking so much water! Lol good luck and enjoy your magical moment

Thanks Ariel time will tell eh.

honey I wouldn't be surprised if it was more to do with him trying to isolate her from friends. But you're right she is in no position to tell you how to live your life. I hope it is just frustration on her part because she cares so much & you are able to sort it out xx

That's a good point about colic Echo that will defo give me a good point of reference.

Good luck scanners, am looking forward to seeing all the lovely updates later

one and lara I am so sorry for your loss xx

Good luck to all with scans today .I have appointment with consultant re the colposcopy i was due next month .....bit scared

passed my dissertation too yeahhhhhh !

Good luck to everyone having their scans today. Thinking of you.

Am envious of all the scans. Mine still seems so far away. I'll be 13+2 when I finally have mine.

I think I feel fluttering. My bump is huge today. Am trying to eat well because I really don't want to end up the same size as last time. I was huge! Took ages to get rid of the baby weight.

Well done on passing your dissertation theboob
