So jealous of all these 12 week scans this week! (Must remember you've all know longer and been through this awful wait!!) my scan is 3 weeks today...seems so far away!! Please let time go quickly!!!

HungryHorace · 20/01/2014 11:50

3 weeks?! That's ages away! Mine's a week today, thank god. Couldn't wait any longer. I'll have known 8 weeks by then. Long enough!

Feeling sick still and so tired. :-/

Hospital appt went well, we are back in 4 months, unless DD has grown out of her lactose intolerance by then. :-)

Feelingfatty · 20/01/2014 12:16

Yep hungry 3 weeks!! I'm ten weeks on Thursday so will be 12+4on scan! I know it's an eternity! I have known since about 3 weeks so have know 7 weeks on Thursday!!!

HungryHorace · 20/01/2014 12:21

I'm a 3+3 BFP here, I'll be 11+4 at the scan. Such a bloody long time, isn't it?!

I'm so sorry Jazzy Sad

I am convincing myself things are going wrong. I just don't feel pregnant at all anymore. Am not tired, boobs are tender but nothing bad and I have period like cramps. Scan is next tues and I am pretty convinced they're going to say it's a MMC. Sorry to be morbid.

londonchick · 20/01/2014 13:00

Sorry jazzy. Look after yourself xx

babyspice2501 · 20/01/2014 13:08

ant how far gone are you? Dont worry my symptoms come and go which makes me panic like mad! But maybe your far gone enough for the symptoms to have calmed down?

I have booked myself in for a dating scan on fri (im 8 weeks today) it cost £75 and I have my 12 week scan on 17th feb which is 4 weeks away!

babyspice2501 · 20/01/2014 13:08

Sorry jazzy to hear your news. Sending hugs your way x

flymo79 · 20/01/2014 13:09

try not to think that way antoinette, all the personal experiences being shared on mn show us that everyone's experience is different, you could have a hugely positive reaction to the placenta taking over and suddenly feel yourself again. Unless it helps you to think the worst and have a pleasant surprise, I would focus on the positives, such as not feeling grim (like you can actually get on with things now!). I am trying this approach as I feel I will go mad if I think the worst before my scan.

Jenbee1 · 20/01/2014 13:34

Thoughts are with you jazzy.
My 12 week scan is on Thursday too. I've decided to have the downs test. Dh wants to know and it was offered to me because I'm old ( but don't feel it:-) only 35). After a year of trying I don't think the results of the test will make any difference to what we decide to do though.
My symptoms have disappeared too so slightly worried as well. Although I put quite a clingy dress on on Saturday and Dh said ' there's definitely something going on there' and I haven't been pigging out on chocolate so hopefully a good sign.

HungryHorace · 20/01/2014 13:44

I keep getting funny looks from people who see DD then clock me as being clearly pregnant (far more pregnant than I am!). It's amusing that they're probably thinking we are a bit keen to be having another so soon!

God, I'm farty today. Good job I'm home alone with DD who doesn't care!!

My boobs are seriously disconcerting now...far too much side boob going on. They're REALLY wide!

lucyfluff · 20/01/2014 14:10

So sorry jazzy Sad take care x

I feel RANK today!! thats the only word to describe it!! Cant shift disgusting taste in my mouth, keep eating all the time and none of my jeans do up Sad

Ruggle · 20/01/2014 15:00

So sorry Jazzy :(

I've made it into work just to do a half day as my boss wouldn't send me files to work on while I was off "sick". I would rather say I am "working from home", but I won't be capable of doing full days even there what with constant nausea and vomming, and most of my work is done on a secure server that I can't even access from home. Anyhow, feeling pretty bad today, and apparently this is supposed to be the worst week of it (11th) so maybe it will start to subside soon...
Scan is next Thursday. I lost my first pregnancy at 11+2 which is in 5 days time, so pretty worried. That baby's due date would have been Valentine's day, which is swiftly approaching....which makes me cry just to think about. Oh dear. Not having a good day at all. Sorry for being miserable!

Secretlypregnant · 20/01/2014 15:07

So very sorry to hear the news, Jazzy. My heart goes out to you.

Missvaughan85 I don't know if I was offered the test because of being over 35 - round here it sounds as if it is a routine thing offered to everyone. But I said yes because both DH and I want to know - and I'm conscious that my age (38) makes a difference statistically.

I'm feeling a lot better today - the sunshine helps. Took DD for a walk around a local lake and we fed the ducks and she did a bit of spread-eagling herself in the mud. Smile

Missvaughan85 · 20/01/2014 15:15

Thanks secretly, I know all about the different tats but I don't really think I've given them much thought just yet. I'm just praying I get to next Tuesday and everything's ok at the scan. I'm frightened of everything.

PinaColadas · 20/01/2014 15:27

I'm So sorry Jazzy, Have a look over on the miscarriage support forums, they helped me so much. Take care x

I'm constantly a mess, my head is all over the place feel like I’m going to make myself poorly having constant palpitations! Wednesday can't come soon enough at all.

Secretlypregnant · 20/01/2014 15:27

I know what you mean - mine's on Friday and I have a feeling that this week is going to CREEP along!

PinaColadas · 20/01/2014 15:42

Today has been a nightmare, I feel like every minute is an hour. Feeling pretty miserable at work too because since I’ve told my team about pregnancy someone who I’ve been friends with for years has started ignoring me, hasn't even acknowledged it or really spoke to me since and I’m finding it really hard, feel really isolated.

I'm trying to understand and I knew she would be upset (single 30 something who is desperate to settle down and have a baby and can't seem to find the right person)
I feel absolutely miserable when I’m here, it's really not helping all my other stresses and feelings :(

2beornot · 20/01/2014 15:49

Oh yes! Friday cannot come soon enough. Am 12 weeks today and no bleeding at all, but having suffered a mmc before I'm understandably nervous. Plus the aches and pains I've experienced aren't helping!!

I've declined nuchal screening but am beginning to regret it. Do you think I could phone hospital and change my mind?

WeeJo08 · 20/01/2014 15:52

Seeing as everyone seems to be having pretty rough Mondays (me too, still feel yuck + nervous about scan tomorrow) I thought I would take it upon myself to send you a really silly clip of a cat Grin Hope it cheers someone up!
