Hello everyone, off we go again...

mssleepyhead · 24/01/2014 17:12

Me me me! I do! I thought I was getting two good days and one bad day, but now it's alternate. Today is a better day. Yesterday was awful. I hope that doesn't mean tomorrow is ruined...

Owlysims · 24/01/2014 19:04

Strange isn't it mssleepy! Just as I start to wonder if alls okay as symptoms have subsided bam there they are twice as worse! I think wed and today have been two of worse days since been pg. but I did read that that's normal between 8-10 weeks? Then should calm down... Fx!!

Secretlypregnant · 24/01/2014 19:21

Evening all, good news here: a good strong heartbeat, lots of wriggles and legs and arms waving around.

Low risk for Downs too, so huge relief there.

It took AGES though - the combination of unhelpful positioning and my retroverted womb meant that she couldn't get the measurements at first. She had me jumping and hula-ing in the scan room - still no luck. In the end I went out while she scanned someone else and went for a jog around the hospital! Then I was scanned again and it was still tricky, but just as she was about to give up it got into the right position and she deftly got the measurements.

DH and I went for a cup of tea and a doughnut and felt a bit dazed!

Told MIL this evening and my best friend - both had an inkling anyway, but were very happy.

Phew phew phew.

HungryHorace · 24/01/2014 19:23

Brilliant news, SP :-)

There's been a lot of awkward babies at these scans!

Did your EDD remain the same?

Owlysims · 24/01/2014 19:33

Perfect secretly great news Grin

Secretlypregnant · 24/01/2014 19:36

Yes, pretty much. The early scan put my dates 3 days on and this scan pulled that back by 2 days, so they are sticking with my original guess. That means EDD 9th August.

2beornot · 24/01/2014 19:39

Just got back from telling my Parents. Feels so real now - will tell mil when we see her on Sunday, and everyone else as and when we see them!!

babyspice2501 · 24/01/2014 19:46

Good to hear secretly!

Had my scan too :) strong heart beat! But ive been moved from 8+5 to 8+2 so my due date is now 3rd September! But im still going by the august one as its such early days and wait till my 12 week scan :)

2beornot · 24/01/2014 19:49

Excellent news, baby!!! Wow, a September baby! Could make all the difference in terms of school! (Assuming your in England?)

Secretlypregnant · 24/01/2014 19:53

Just reading through all today's posts. Great news, 2beornot and babyspice! Glad everything has settled down, Lucy.

Jazzy, I'm so sorry to hear you are having a bad day. I hope tomorrow will be a better one. Like several others on here, I have been through similar. After mine, I got a BFP after one cycle.

Thinking of you all. x

HungryHorace · 24/01/2014 20:01

Also brilliant news, baby. :-)

Who is it having a scan tomorrow? Memory like a sodding sieve!

Then it's us Monday crew! Eek.

OveranxiousUnderated · 24/01/2014 20:04

Hi all Smile

Congratulations 2be and secretly on your positive scans today.

Mine also went well. I was a nervous wreck and still can't believe that there is an actual baby in there. My due date has moved forward by one day now putting me at 3rd August.

7 weeks today until my next scan!

I don't know why but I have disappeared off the latest stats list again...I have already asked people to put me back on twice I feel bad asking again...do you guys not want me here? Wink

Been feeling sicker than ever tonight, I'm sure it's all just psychological now that I know the baby really is developing!

Also what's the deal with the Facebook group as feeling a bit more optimistic now.

OveranxiousUnderated · 24/01/2014 20:05

Oops sorry babyspice, missed you off...glad your scan went well too. X

HungryHorace · 24/01/2014 20:55

Overanxious, can you cut and paste the list yourself? I can't do it on an iPad. Otherwise you'll have to wait for somebody with the ability to do it fir you! :-)

Good news about your scan.

If you want to join the Facebook group send me a PM with your real name / entail address and I'll add you.

HungryHorace · 24/01/2014 20:57

Ooh...success! Can't remember your age or if you have DCs though.

Haha...yes 4 times removed would be a little too much to take. Wink

2beornot · 24/01/2014 21:50

Once I've told enough people I'll join Facebook group. Who do I need to pm?

RoseHoney · 24/01/2014 21:58

Checking in again Smile

HungryHorace · 24/01/2014 22:00

2be, you can PM me. :-)

HungryHorace · 24/01/2014 22:01

Oh, and the group is secret. Nobody will know you're a member apart from the other members.

mssleepyhead · 24/01/2014 22:22

So because I'm an impatient thing I'm googling gender scans for 16 weeks, a whole 3 weeks before I'm even having my first NHS one : ) I just wondered if anyone else was thinking about a baby bond scan?
