No how you feel about dates gray when I was preg with ds they put me a month ahead! I told them that it was impossible of the fact we hant had sex before ( we conceived the week we first slept togeather) an she still turned round an said well obvs it is possible as they are your dates. She wasn't too pleased the next time I saw her after having my dating scan and they confirmed I was right haha

Sarahb8990 · 28/08/2013 15:30

sarah yes i enjoyed that feeling too, just added you!

IceNoSlice · 28/08/2013 15:51

Great news, Total, April and Lyra!

Rock rant away! And your MIL sounds a classic. Oh well, at least you have a lot of stories to entertain us with. Has she stopped the sandwich nonsense?

Pram perfect aged neices for babysitting duty!

I've just woken up from my first indulgent preg nap. I have Wednesdays off from work and my parents are staying. I had planned we could all do something together with DS but I couldn't stop yawning so they've had him most of the day. Which they love. So everyone is happy! Smile

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 16:15

I think it was JK10 who had the sandwich problem.

PiratesMam · 28/08/2013 16:21

Hello all. Scan all good here too and I have also been moved to 6th March which was fine by me, not a clue when I conceived anyway! NT Downs risk came back as 1:5100-ish so pleased with that. Kings were ace - actually only went in 5 mins after our appt time so was amazed. Also - no dildo cam anymore at Kings! Although I suppose that might disappoint some people!

MummyPig24 · 28/08/2013 16:42

Such good news about the scans!

pirates, parenting bar not set too high. Kids currently eating leftover reheated dominos and watching cbeebies. I've felt sick all bloody day. Will be persuading them to chill out tomorrow. Ds has a party in the afternoon. God I hate kids parties.

April13 · 28/08/2013 16:47

They never told me NT results, said bloods required too, but can see from notes measurement was 1.5 mm. No idea what that means.

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 16:49

April, 1.5 is good. Mine was 1.6. I think anything under 3.5 is normal and the lower the better.

April13 · 28/08/2013 16:59

Thanks good lyra they said would take 2-3 weeks for results!

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 17:01

Mine took a week. They'll also take into account your blood test results and your age before giving your risk. On my nt alone my risk would be lower but I think my age pushed it up. On age alone my risk would be 1:55.

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 17:07

Making salmon handrolls for dinner tonight. The boys are excited Smile

Jolleigh · 28/08/2013 17:11

Don't make me so jealous Lyra!

mimili · 28/08/2013 17:17

I'm so jealous of all the successful scans - and happy for you all of course!

I am 11 and half weeks with no sign of a scan date. I've started looking at private scans - they are not cheap are they!

SoSurprised · 28/08/2013 17:31

Great news about the scans today! I am jealous too! Can't wait for my scan.

IceNoSlice · 28/08/2013 17:33

mimii have you chased the hospital about your scan? I would (and did) in your shoes.

apprenticemamma · 28/08/2013 17:38

congrats scannees! April that was v similar to us, lazy puffin was totally still! Also we r moved to 7th march...guess that stats thread will need updating soon.I'm working only late night tonight and needing some validation about the disgusting amount of crap I have consumed today: - large bowl of shreddies, banana, two bags crisps, cheese sarnie, one 4 finger kit kat, one two finger kit cat, fruit pastille and mini cheddars. It's fucking disgusting! My baby does not need this vending machine crap! Shock Shock (ps normally one small naughty snack plus fruit mad sandwich...)

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 17:38

Joll, I'll save you one.

I can't believe some of you don't have scan dates yet. It's outrageous. I've got my date for my 20-week scan already.

mimili · 28/08/2013 17:44

Ice Yes I have repeatedly. They give me the same answer every time. 'I'll get my turn'!!

I've asked the midwife to help - apparently she can't do anymore. I've ranted about this a lot today I think DH is getting annoyed!!

PiratesMam · 28/08/2013 17:51

Like Lyra said, it's so weird almost all our dates have been moved forward after our scans! Don't really understand it. I'm 100% sure of LMP but I guess could have conceived a bit earlier than ovulation if the sperm bothered to swim up all the tubes!!

IceNoSlice · 28/08/2013 18:04

Mimili Sad that sucks!

apprenticemamma · 28/08/2013 18:16

mimili. .shocking and every right to rant. If you want the NT test I believe there is a time limit..e.g. under 13.5 weeks (but check). Not to freak you out but if that is important to you then it's a damn good argument. 'Wait your time' . How bloody patronizing Angry . ... Whereabouts are you?

apprenticemamma · 28/08/2013 18:18

ps and having completed the mini cheddar I'm officially a fat bastard and a guilt ridden one at thatShock .Off to have a giant salad and a box of prego vits.
