Great news Rebecca and moomin. My scan (2nd) is next Friday when I'll be 12+6

bluestone85 · 17/10/2013 17:54

Got to wait for date of my scan too. I do hate waiting. I'm keep having to convince myself that there definitely is a baby in there :-)

loopylou52 · 17/10/2013 17:55

Excellent news rebecca and moomin! Grin

moominleigh94 · 17/10/2013 18:03

Thanks everyone :)

Great news rebecca, so glad your scan went well too Grin

Pictures are on my profile :) baby's an awkward bugger so it's difficult to see but we could see heartbeat clearly and little wriggles :)

And the looks I got doing my invisible hoola hoop around the hospital were great Grin

wm3010 · 17/10/2013 18:06

bluestone85 · 17/10/2013 18:16

Is anyone else having 'baby brain'?

bluestone85 · 17/10/2013 18:20

bluestone85 · 17/10/2013 18:20

*hooping. I give up. haha

RosesInTheRain · 17/10/2013 18:30

good news today, glad for both of you Halloween Smile

My scan is Tuesday, in Fetal Medicine after my last pregnancy (DS2 had acrania- no skull, a neural tube disorder, hence TFMR). To say I am scared is putting it mildly...

Also have the small matter of exchanging on our house contracts tomorrow- we should complete next Friday so it'll be quite a week. Just hoping it all goes well, keep running through all possible outcomes like finding out there's a problem and I need a TFMR or D&E and we have to move 3 days later... Sad AAAGGGGH.

Perineal massage I didn't do it and tore badly (3rd degree)- however I don't think it would have made a difference at all as DS was 9lb8oz, back to back and I ended up with forceps. I will be having an ELCS if all is well, but it took me the best part of 2 years to heal 'properly' (physically and mentally), and I still have symptoms. Weird I have a consultant appointment for this already but don't know if it's ok... am under 2 different consultants.

On the plus side I haven't been sick for a week- nausea still here though. I've even managed to eat cake Grin

NannyPlumForPM · 17/10/2013 18:43

Woohoo moomin I am happy you and Rebecca got through safe and happy!! With all the sad news scans iv come to expect horrible news :( but I have my McDonald's and now I'm expecting a comfy cosy night in with jonathan creek guilty pleasure Halloween Wink

Green notes here and midwife coming to do full medical history on Tuesday at home- one day after the scan Hmm anybody else have to use the carbon monoxide tester?? I said I didn't smoke, DP doesn't smoke, there's no smoke in the house- she was like "what about cannabis"?! I must have been too relaxed! Still she made me do the bloody test and then asked if I could produce a second urine sample. I sai I'm not a machine!!! Only did one 10 mins ago!

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 17/10/2013 18:58

Well done everyone on the lovely scans! Good news all round :)
Can't believe she made you do a test Nanny, how rude!

No idea when my scan is yet, I only just got round to ringing the drs today. Are they always at about 12 weeks still?

I'm really struggling tonight. It's been a long day and I would normally wind down with wine and a cigarette, obviously can't do that now :( DP is driving me mad, DS is in the middle of the worlds biggest tantrum and I just want my bed!

mumof2aimingfor4 · 17/10/2013 19:07

nanny I'd have told her where to shove her pot for a 2nd urine test! The cheek of it! Are you in London? Us London girls seem to be getting the green notes.

FrightFlea · 17/10/2013 19:12

Great news on the scans.

Ive never done the perennial massage. And i know I won't this time either. I tore badly with dd1 but was on my back so I blame my inexperience. Tore again with DD2 but not badly, didnt need stitches and it healed within days. I was on my knees for that and midwife said there was nothing I could've done to prevent it.

By week 30, I can barely reach down there.

Nanny it sounds like the midwife may have been covering her ass on that. Maybe a previous mistake? I wouldn't take it personally and it sounds like you'll have no stone unturned which may benefit you. Just a thought.
