Sick of feeling sick today! Bleugh... So pleased for you silly , that must have been amazing! Like a miracle almost. Think my due date is 11th so does that make me 8wks today? Wow, time is flying. Only 7 months to go :-)

Hello ladies, I'm extremely excited to tell you that we saw a healthy bean today measuring 9 weeks with a very strong heartbeat, hearing the heartbeat was just amazing. It was quite fast (182BPM!) but my heart was going like the clappers so not surprised. Even saw it do a little wriggle. I'm absolutely over the moon! 31 weeks to go!! Thanks to everyone for the reassurance yesterday x

Anyone else got a bump now? Mine seems to have grown over the past few days and it's definitely not due to chocolate Wink

WeeJo08 · 30/12/2013 14:08

Hi everyone, can I join? I have been lurking for a few weeks! I got my BFP on 12th December but had some bleeding so didn't want to join in case of problems (still nervous now!) Had an early scan this morning and saw baby & little heartbeat!! Grin The scan dated baby at 6w 3d but they said I'm probably 7 weeks going by LMP). This is DC2 for me - I have a 1 year old DD. no real explanation for the bleeding (had it with DD too) but am hoping everything is okay. I'm 31. Oh and hi Friend of Dorothy! We were on the December 2012 board together! Grin

HungryHorace · 30/12/2013 14:17

Big congrats to piña and silly :) that's great news! And welcome Jo.
Been really busy at work this morning and Dh is still at work with DD so I've taken myself off to bed for a quick half hour nap! I just want to sleep all the time!

Am I one of the latest due dates in here? I'm only 5+5 today and everything feels like an age away! Hurry up 13th Jan, when I have my booking in appointment with the GP and nurse!

Congrats piña...I have booking apt tomorrow- hoping midwife might try & listen in, heartbeat can sometimes be heard from 9 weeks I read somewhere...

stephie0611 · 30/12/2013 16:23

Got my first appointment with midwife on 7th january and my scan date 5th february. Was hoping for the scan to be the week before as I have my birthday meal on the1st and know everybody will be wondering why Im not drinking.

FriendofDorothy · 30/12/2013 16:34

Heheh hi WeeJo I thought I recognised that name! Looks like we probably have the same sort of due date as I am 7 weeks today - EDD of 18 August.

I received my booking appointment in the post today - 10 December at my house. Seems to make it more real now!

mssleepyhead · 30/12/2013 16:35

Half pint - I'm about the same as you. Officially 6 weeks yesterday but I think I ovulated late so I'm actually 6 weeks tomorrow, so just a day or so ahead of you : )

mssleepyhead · 30/12/2013 16:36

Oh - and half pint - I don't have my booking in appointment till 10 weeks, so you're well ahead of me on that!

RoseHoney · 30/12/2013 17:01

On the subject of prams, I've had 10 Shock
I got a baby jogger city select double when my second was born (eldest was 25 months) and while I loved it and the ginormous shopping basket it really was a tank! When my eldest stopped using it (2.5) I ditched it for a bugaboo cameleon and a Lascal buggy board and I never looked back. Wish I'd bought a bugaboo in the first place, they're brilliant and last forever.
Second hand you can get them cheap.
